Scoring & interpretation

Each answer is rated on a 5-point Likert scale. The raw score for each facet and each factor (the 5 dimensions) is calculated, then converted into standardized scores (T). The results make it possible to position the individual on each of the 5 major dimensions and their 6 associated facets, according to population norms.
