The NPQ is a nonverbal measure of personality. The item illustrations depict personality-relevant behaviours that are based on Murray's (1938) system of needs, the scales of the Personality Research Form (PRF), and the Five-Factor Model of personality.

The 136-item NPQ covers the following personality scales:

  • Achievement
  • Affiliation
  • Impulsivity
  • Aggression
  • Autonomy
  • Nurturance
  • Play
  • Dominance
  • Order
  • Exhibition
  • Endurance
  • Sentience
  • Thrill-seeking
  • Social Recognition
  • Succorance

The NPQ is suitable for the assessment of normal adult personality in counselling, research and business settings. It is ideal for cross-cultural comparisons, young children, and people with reading diffi culties, language barriers, and problems with attention and concentration.
