   What is it that you are actually aiming to achieve? What is the context of your requirement?

   I can’t help you on the name of the test but I would as an applicant have concerns about facing a test that by choosing my favourite shapes would give you a true picture of me.

   The controlling body for psychometrics is the British Psychological Society (0116 254 9568) http://www.bps.org.uk

   True psychometric testing requires the user to be licenced. Many organisations run Level A & B training.

3. Through the blue window…
   I’d echo Iain & Lawrence’s comments – sounds dubious, unless there is robust evidence to support its use – reliability, validity, norms, equal ops data etc.

   I’ve heard of the test you mention – a colleague was exposed to it in a health authority setting as someone’s ‘pet’ test – but can’t remember what it was called.

   I’d be cautious of using it. Conall

4. Psychometric Party Game !
   I’ve seen this used on a number of training seminars , mainly as a bit of fun , or a warm-up session. The “characteristics” which an individual shows from their choice of shape are so general that whichever shape/personality you choose , everyone can have an affinity with.
   An interesting parlour game, but of no real relevance on it’s own merit .
