 Personal Capacity Analysis (PCA)

What are your strong and weak points in life?

This test will reveal why you succeed in some areas of life and maybe fail in others. Your personality is the determining factor. This test will give you a profile of yourself based on your answers to 210 questions. You can do this online test free of charge and without fear of that the results are stored anywhere. Should you decide that you want improvement, feel free to contact a Freezone practitioner for assistance. The practitioner can help you overcome any possible undesired traits and conditions.

The Test
The PCA test is done by filling in a questionnaire online. You have to select answers from a multiple choice list. Each answer is related to one of the columns A-J (see below.) The answer has an internal number value that is used when calculating the result. Thus you will, by means of taking the test, become aware of desirable and undesirable traits of your personality.

The PCA test is primarily intended as a tool for Freezone practitioners to find strong and weak points in clients' mental make-up. Once found, the weak spots can be improved thorough self-improvement techniques, called processing. Processing removes mental blocks to being one's own natural self, which is always found to be much more in the desirable range.

Similar tests are used, as well, in business to find the right candidates for certain jobs.

The PCA test is inspired by the Oxford Capacity Analysis. The OCA was a test originally developed in 1955 by Julia Lewis-Salmen, an American psychologist, The original name of it was, the American Personality Analysis. This test was refined by Ray Kemp and Tom Morgan, in England, in 1959 and 1973. They gave the British rendition the name Oxford Capacity Analysis. A very similar test is used by the U-Man Corporation, a recruiting and headhunting consulting firm with offices in many countries. Numerous other consulting firms have been using this test, or developments from it, in recruitment consulting.  The PCA is similar to the OCA test and its variations used in business. The questions have, however, been reevaluated and refined to suit the needs of Freezone practitioners. The marking scheme is more nuanced than other tests out there and thus not identical to any of the above. It builds, however, on the collective experience of these tests. The software driving the test is entirely original. It was developed in 2004 by Nick Warren, UK.

Gender = F, adult = Y

Weighted scores (ranging from -100 to 100) on each of 10 traits:

A	53	OK	Stable vs. Unstable(disperesed)
B	-0	In need of attention Low compared to average	Happy vs. Depressed
C	82	Good	Composed vs. Nervous
D	80	Good	Reliable, personable(Serene) vs. Unpredictable, erratic
E	63	Good	Active vs. Passive
F	57	OK	Self-assured vs. Submissive
G	27	OK	Responsible vs. Irresponsible
H	78	Good	Reasonable(agreeable) vs. Hyper-critical(invalidates others)
I	26	OK	Empathy(high affinity) vs. Insensitive to others(low affinity)
J	46	OK	Communicative vs. Withdrawn

Generally, a score above 60 is good, above 20 is OK, between -20 and 20 is in need of attention, below -20 is poor and below -60 very poor. Also, ideally, a profile should show relatively little deviation in score from one trait to the next. The average weighted score for this profile is 51 and any trait significantly abve or below that (40 or more points away) is highlighted above as "High/Low compared to average".
