The Instinctual Variant Questionnaire, IVQ, is the first online test developed specially to help you understand what your most prominent drive is and gain a deeper understanding of yourself.
There are three basic instinctual intelligences:
- Self-preservation Instinct
- Social Instinct
- Sexual (Attraction) Instinct
IVQ is a forced-choice psychological test with 37 sets of 3 statements each. In each set of statements, you are to choose one statement that is most like you and another which is least like you.
The test will then determine your "Instinctual Stack," or the three Instincts ordered from your most developed Instinct to your least developed Instinct.
The IVQ takes about 15 minutes to complete and your results will show your scores for all three Instincts, as well as general information about the Instinctual Variants.
The Instincts may be explored separately from Enneagram type, and knowledge of your primary Enneagram type does not affect your IVQ score. If you already know and enter your primary Enneagram type at the end of the IVQ, you will receive brief bonus content about the Instinctual Variants for your specific type. If you are still exploring your primary Enneagram type, you may wish to take the Enneagram Test.
