Our personality assessment uses the 50-item IPIP Big-Five Factor Markers from the International Personality Item Pool, initiated by Lewis R. Goldberg. Our self-esteem assessment uses the 10-item Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Morris Rosenberg, 1965, Society and the Adolescent Self-Image) in the University of Maryland item order, scored from 0 to 30. We use the English items and published scoring rules. Mind Calculator's explanations and reflection prompts are original educational content; this website has not undergone independent psychometric validation.
IPIP-NEO-120 uses Johnson’s (2014) 120-item version. IPIP-NEO-300 uses the full 30 facet scales. Both show five dimensions and 30 facets; they are not the proprietary NEO-PI-R.
The SCL-90 page uses a Chinese reference version with draft translations. Independent validation and permission for public commercial use have not been established.
The IPIP items and scales are in the public domain, with commercial use explicitly permitted. The University of Maryland also states that the Rosenberg scale is in the public domain. These statements cover the source scales; they do not imply endorsement of Mind Calculator.

This reference uses responses from 1 to 5. All 90 responses contribute to the total. Each factor is the mean of its assigned items; seven additional items contribute only to the total. This is not the 0–4 scoring version.
IPIP results show five separate raw sums, each from 10 to 50. There is no overall personality score and a higher score is not always better. Rosenberg scores range from 0 to 30, with higher scores reflecting more positive self-evaluation. Neither report shows a population percentile, a diagnosis or a prediction of job performance. The results are a starting point for reflection.
