Inscape Publishing's Commitment to Ongoing Research
nscape Publishing is committed to maintaining the highest standards of instrument development and application through careful
research and development processes. We ensure all of our instruments offer valid scores and accurate feedback to the
respondent. Each instrument is designed to provide reasonably accurate interpretations or feedback based on your scores.
Valid and Reliable
Validity indicates whether an assessment measures the concept it is intended to measure. Reliability indicates whether an assessment
is measuring a concept consistently.
Validity and Reliability Are Important
Inscape Publishing's learning instruments help you better understand yourself and others by clarifying what you are thinking and feeling
in a particular situation. Within our learning instruments, you can find your responses and tendencies and compare them with those of others.
You receive an interpretation of your results that helps you understand and explain your responses and assists you in most effectively and
efficiently reaching your goals.
However, a learning instrument can only provide useful feedback if it measures what it claims to measure and if it does so consistently.
Many companies just give you their best guess. They tell you what they think their assessment measures and what they think your results mean.
Inscape Publishing uses research to insure that our instruments provide you with accurate and meaningful information. Research means that
the content of our assessments is based on the real-world experiences of people nation-wide rather than the beliefs of just one or two individuals.
Through research, we maximize the accuracy and usefulness of our products for you.
Research Reports
A research report provides information on the history and development of a learning instrument. In addition, information is included on
how the reliability and validity of the instrument was established.
