What exactly is Psychometric testing or psychometric analysis? |
| |
Psychometric word is made of two words - Psychology + Metrics. i.e. to measure or assess
the psychology of a person.
Every individual has an inherent personality i.e. certain traits are inherited by him/her
genetically. For example, one person is excellent in playing guitar while other is the best footballer in
the country. One is good in writing poetry while other person has good traits to be an entrepreneur. Now
if a person who wants to play guitar whole life is asked to study medicine, he might fail miserably and
if not fail he will never be happy. Similarly the person who wants to do business and has natural flair
for it is made to do service, this will again lead to an unhappy state of mind for him. These traits are
imbibed in a person from birth or are acquired during his childhood.
The purpose of such psychometric tests is to assess and understand a person's natural
talent and interest in a scientific yet logical way. This natural talent and trait can be identified at
an early stage in an individual's life and he/she can make a career out of it. He/She will not only earn
his/her livelihood but the individual will be very successful in life and achieve zenith in the chosen profession.
For example famous cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle was an IIM, Ahemdabad graduate but enjoys
commentary rather than climbing corporate hierarchy. Amisha Patel has BA in Economics from Tufts University in Boston,
MA, USA but she chooses a career in films and was an immediate hit. This was possibly only because she has a great
appreciation for acting and is passionate about it. |
