Free Interpersonal Circumplex Test
IPIP-IPC — Interpersonal Circumplex Inventory
Discover where you fall on the two core dimensions of interpersonal behavior — Agency (dominance–submissiveness) and Communion (warmth–coldness). Takes about 5 minutes. Based on the International Personality Item Pool interpersonal circumplex scales.
What It Measures
Your position on the two fundamental axes of interpersonal behavior: Agency (how dominant vs. submissive you tend to be) and Communion (how warm vs. cold you tend to be). Your position in this two-dimensional space defines your interpersonal style.
How It Works
32 items describing interpersonal behaviors. You rate how accurately each describes you on a 5-point scale. Scores are computed for all eight circumplex octants; your angular position and extremity are derived from the octant scores.
What You Get
A circumplex plot showing your position, your dominant interpersonal style, your extremity index (how strongly organized your interpersonal functioning is around a single style), and a brief narrative interpretation.
