The 16 Personality Factor (16PF) Questionnaire is a comprehensive personality assessment created by psychologist Raymond Cattell. Drawing on decades of research, it evaluates personality across 16 empirically derived dimensions, including traits like warmth, emotional stability, and openness to change. Unlike other personality tests that classify individuals into set types, the 16PF offers a nuanced profile, revealing how specific traits interact to shape behavior, relationships, and decision-making. Used in clinical, occupational, and educational contexts, the 16PF provides valuable insights for personal and professional development by highlighting individual strengths and growth areas.
