Ambivert Test (Version 1.0) is a psychometric self-reflection instrument designed to measure the unique traits of ambiversion, which differ from the characteristics typically associated with strong introversion or extraversion. It also compares introversion and extroversion traits, with individuals’ preferences and behaviors, and makes decision to show how much ambiverted an individual may be.

Development of the Ambivert Self-test.

Hans Eysenck theory suggests that introverts and extroverts differ in their baseline levels of cortical arousal. ^[1] Introverts have higher baseline arousal which means they prefer quiet and appear reserved and on the other hand extroverts have lower baseline arousal and feel comfortable in social interactions and seek external stimulation. Ambiverts fall near the middle of introversion and extroversion and they have moderate arousal and can tolerate both external stimulation and solitude.

Adam Grant (2013, Wharton School) ^[2] suggests ambiverts are often better salespersons because they have listening skills as well as speaking skills and can adjust to social and solitary demands.

Ambivert self-test is designed to measure the unique traits of an individual that makes them different from those who have strong introversion and extraversion traits. For the item generation Eysenck’s arousal theory and the Big Five personality model was consulted. After item generation the main focus was to measure key traits of ambiversion such as Sociability, Flexibility, Emotional balance, Assertiveness, Attentiveness, Adaptability. Statements were developed to capture both ends of the spectrum introversion and extraversion tendencies.

The Ambivert Self-Test aims to provide insights of their position in the introversion–extraversion continuum. This self-assessment is not part of any research or study, and in the future research can be conducted to further validate it. Expert reviews and pilot testing was conducted for clarity and consistency. ^[3]
