The EPQ-R has been developed over many years and validated in numerous clinical, industrial, experimental and applied studies worldwide.

The 106-item self-report questionnaire provides a convenient measure of three key dimensions of personality:

  • E (extroversion-introversion)
  • N (neuroticism or emotionality)
  • P (psychoticism or tough-mindedness)

A lie scale (L) is also included, along with supplementary measures of predisposition to addiction and criminality. A 48-item EPQ-R Short Scale is available, which measures E, N, P and L.

The 54-item IVE Questionnaire covers three traits: Impulsiveness, Venturesomeness and Empathy, further extending and refining the personality description.

The EPQ-R is used for clinical diagnosis, educational guidance, career counselling, personnel selection and placement, and market research.
