 The
AQ Profile
More than 500,000 people worldwide have measured
their Adversity Quotient®, or their AQ®, by completing the
AQ Profile
— a series of scientifically engineered questions developed
by PEAK Learning®.
An exceptionally robust measure of resilience, the AQ Profile is the only
statistically
valid, reliable tool in existence for measuring AQ. The people
who have completed this profile reflect a broad range of backgrounds,
ages, cultures, industries, and occupations; they have all contributed
to the growing AQ global database.
Four CORE dimensions
Completing the AQ Profile requires only 8 to 10 minutes.
It measures AQ and its four “CORE” dimensions —
Control, Ownership, Reach, and Endurance — that relate to
a person’s perception of adversity.
 Control
measures the degree of control that a person perceives he/she has
over adverse events. It is a strong gauge of resilience and health.
Ownership
measures the extent to which a person holds himself or herself accountable
for improving a situation. It is a strong gauge of accountability
and likelihood to take action.
Reach
is the perception of how large or far-reaching events will be. It
is a strong gauge of perspective, burden, and stress level.
Endurance
is the perception of time over which good or bad events and their
consequences will last or endure. It is a strong gauge of hope or
optimism.
Two versions of the AQ Profile
PEAK now offers two assessment products —
a Developmental
AQ Profile and Screening
AQ Profile — which are available online. Our Developmental AQ Profile
helps assess the resilience of individuals who are already part
of your organization. Our new Screening AQ Profile helps you screen job
