What PhiloType is
PhiloType is a tool for understanding your own tendencies in thinking.
It does not measure ability, aptitude, or job performance.
It is not a medical or psychological diagnosis, and it is not a test whose psychological validity has been verified.
It does not measure or suggest neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD or ASD.
Your type is not fixed. It changes as your way of thinking changes.
No type ranks above another. Do not use types to judge or exclude other people.
The result shows a provisional tendency in your thinking. It does not determine personality, ability, or aptitude.
