About Assessments

The most easily understood teachings regarding human behavior are based on the "DISC" model, a theory devised by Dr. William Marston, a Columbia University psychologist during the 1920s and 30s.

Marston identified four major patterns of behavior that are present in everyone, to a greater or lesser degree. In 1928, he published this "breakthrough" information in his book, Emotions of Normal People.

Since that time, exhaustive studies have been conducted by university education and psychology departments, involving many thousands of subjects, with the aim of validating, refining and improving upon Marston's initial concepts.

Research continues to affirm this theory that as individuals, our drives are "powered" either by our outgoing or our reserved approach to life, and that our direction is "steered" either towards tasks or toward people.

There are numerous other systems out there. I believe they all represent the same basic model, however there approach and focus may differ.
