DiSC is a psychometric test that measures personality and behavioural attributes on four primary scales:

  1. Dominance: accomplishing results, the bottom line, confidence.
  2. Influence: influencing or persuading others, openness, relationships.
  3. Steadiness: co-operation, sincerity, dependability.
  4. Conscientiousness: quality and accuracy, expertise, competency.


The DiSC test is based on the work of the psychologist William Marston, including his book Emotions of Normal People, 1928.
