Q-sort Decks

The three elements of the "personality triad" are the person, the situation, and behavior.  The Riverside Accuracy Project uses Jack Block's personality Q-sort (adapted) to describe persons (the California Adult Q-sort or CAQ), the Riverside Behavioral Q-sort to describe behaviors, and the (new) Riverside Situational Q-sort to describe situations.  To see the items of these instruments, follow the links below.

Riverside Behavioral Q-sort (Version 3.0)

   Note: This is a new, revised version designed to be more broadly useful outside of the experimental settings in which the original versions were employed.  Translations of the earlier version are available in German, Dutch and French.  The Child RBQ developed by Pat and Charlotte Markey is also available in French..
