At times we arrange the opportunity for participants to retake the assessment, but only after reviewing the following first:
The test/retest reliability is extremely high and usually, the results don’t change beyond 6 points, so the overall results don’t change enough to matter. There are some who are close to a border and they might move there, but it is rare. When that happens we have point 2.
Most people who retake the assessment prefer their first results.
The SDI is FOR you not ABOUT you. It is not intended as a diagnostic nor to put you in a box, but rather to give you an opportunity to recognize your preferences and motives and then how those things change when faced with conflict. Humans are complex and some things might ring more true than others in your results because of that. This is ok and expected.
Second, we have some questions for you to consider and answer:
What do you believe the results are saying about you?
What are you hoping they would say?
Have you reviewed your results with a certified facilitator? If not, we encourage you to do so.
Finally, if you believe it is important to redo the assessment you may choose 1 of the 2 options below:
