1. What are the benefits of PEAKS?
The PEAKS Profiling technology, benchmarking peak performance research with The Five Factor tradition, is used at all levels of analysis: individual, team, organisational as well as community, thus capturing individual potential, team roles and profiles as well as organisational and community profiles and culture.
- The Five-Factor Model of Personality is the most current, valid and reliable means of assessing personality available today. Psychologists are predicting that it will be the primary means of understanding personality in the 21st Century. Such instrumentation applied to industry have a 0.86 to 0.92 measure of reliability.
- Peak Performance studies based on contextualised current data for local and global relevance
PEAKS is based on the most widely recognised psychometric system known to be…
- Reliable :: Highest reliability of all available personality inventories
- Acceptable :: High acceptance of Personal results by those tested
- Respected :: Most widely respected personality model in the personality research community
- Compatible :: Serves as a road map to major theories of personality
- Valid :: Established predictive validity across a variety of jobs
- Uncomplicated :: No theory to understand, just a simple vocabulary of individual differences
- Inexpensive :: Administrative costs are low, designed to be used widely
- Adaptable :: Can be customised to meet organisational needs
2. Who analyses and validates the results?
PEAKS profiles are built upon rigorous psychometric and peak performance models widely researched in major universities. The results are analysed, contextualised and validated by Research Communication International (RCI) which is a global certifying body that has certified key personnel and consultants in hundreds of corporations, universities and non-governmental organisations in the use of the PEAKS Technology. Annually, RCI is contracted to profile millions of individuals and thousands go through RCI’s consultancy and training programmes. Over the past 10 years, RCI has maintained alliances with researchers and research centres in the US, UK and Australia. Headed by its President, Dr Shirley Lim, a psycho-linguist, RCI has contextualised PEAKS profiling for global use spanning across Asia, Latin America, North America and Europe. In Singapore, global benchmarks are normed and validated for relevance in Asia.
3. How long will I take to complete the PEAKS profiling?
The 270-question PEAKS profiling can be completed in approximately 45 minutes. It is recommended that you answer honestly and naturally without too much thinking, as there are no right or wrong answers.
4. Must I finish my profiling in one session? Can I stop halfway and continue later?
The PEAKS profiling system is an integrative psychometric system that requires the individual to complete the assessment in one sitting, so as to bring about a response that is most natural and innate to the individual. It is therefore not possible for responses on the questionnaire to be saved for completion at a later stage.
5. What happens if I get disconnected anytime during the assessment?
If disconnection should arise during the assessment, we recommend that the individual retake the questionnaire by logging into the system as before.
6. What happens if I do not receive my user ID and password from Morphos?
If you do not receive PEAKS user ID and password by the appointed date, it is recommended that you check your email’s junk mail folder, as your email filter may have filtered it there. If your junk mail folder did not contain our email, please contact your Morphos coach or contact us for more information.
7. How is my privacy protected?
As your profiling is done online, there will be no involvement from Morphos during the whole profiling session (unless there are special needs). Thus, your information is safely kept within the server. At Morphos, all our coaches, trainers and staff adhere to professional standards of ethics to safeguard client information. All case studies will be approved by our clients before use.
8. How can I ensure that my staff is not ‘cheating’ the system when they do their PEAKS profiling?
The 270-question profiling contains counter checking mechanisms to ensure the consistency of the answers given. In the event that there is suspicion of anyone cheating the system, you can alert Morphos and we can discuss with you further on the matter.
