The NEO Software System is a modular system that allows you to generate free, unlimited Interpretive Reports when you input responses from a completed print administration. You may also administer either the NEO PI-R or the NEO-FFI on-screen via a Counter Serial Number.

The software will generate the NEO PI-R or the NEO-FFI Interpretive Report and/or the appropriate client feedback report. An additional feature of this software system is the opportunity to generate a Combined Interpretive Report that compares an individual's (ages 17 years and older) self-report results with the results from an observer. The Combined Interpretive Report provides a quantified index of profile agreement.

The NEO PI-R Interpretive Report includes a T-score profile and data table; validity indexes; a global description of the Five Factors with detailed interpretation of the individual facets; personality correlates with possible implications, clinical hypotheses regarding Axis II Disorders with treatment implications; and information about somatic complaints, coping and defense mechanisms, cognitive processes, and personal needs and motivations.

Software Requirements: Windows 95/NT 4.0 with Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher, Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista; CD-ROM drive for installation; Internet connection or telephone for software activation and counter update Note: You must have the NEO Software System to use the Counter Serial Number on-screen administrations. The NEO Software System Manual and Help System are available on-screen for easy reference.
