Selby Mills Report

Report Date Monday 8th October 2012

Norm Group = General population

This report has been prepared with every care and in good faith. However the interpretation arises from the sum of the candidate's choices and preferences in answering a series of self-report inventories, and should therefore be seen purely as indicative of certain trends in their attitudes at that time.

The results are presented as stens where a score of 1 is low and 10 is high.
They are colour-coded; the darker the colour the higher the score and the stronger the persons preference.

No liability can be accepted by the interpreter or by Selby & Mills Limited.
