Beyond Persona uses a 288-item assessment, 36 measured axes, 4 layers, 29 archetypes, and 53 fired patterns before AI writes the explanatory report.
BP does not start by assigning one broad type label. It calculates axis-level patterns first, then explains combinations and intensity across the model.
Ground covers innate temperament: behavioral tendencies that recur across different situations. Lens covers cognitive preferences in taking in information and making judgments. Mirror covers metacognition: noticing and examining one's own reactions and ways of thinking. Resonance describes intrapersonal patterns that emerge from the combination of one person's Ground, Lens, and Mirror results. It is separate from relationship analysis, which compares two people.
AI writes the personal report from measured axis scores, archetypes, and fired patterns. A report about the relationship between two people is a separate product that uses both people's results; no partner data enters the personal report.
The core assessment is response-based. AI explains the measured result after the assessment and scoring structure produce it.
Many 16-type tests summarize a person into one label. BP uses 36 axes and 4 layers to explain more granular patterns.
AI wording can vary, but the report should remain anchored to the measured result data.
