The Szondi test is a 1935 nonverbal projective personality test developed by Léopold Szondi.

Eysenck initially conceptualized personality as two biologically based independent dimensions of temperament, E and N, measured on a continuum, but then extending this to include a third, P.

The test can be administered using pencil-and ...
The test-retest reliability for over 6 years, as reported in the NEO PI-R manual, was the following: N = .83, E = .82, O = .83, A = .63, C = .79. Costa and McCrae pointed out that these findings not only demonstrate good reliability of the domain scores, but also their stability (among individuals over the age of 30).
Many studies of longitudinal data, which correlate people's test scores over time, and cross-sectional data, which compare personality levels across different age groups, show a high degree of stability in personality traits during adulthood, especially Neuroticism that is often regarded as a temperament trait [148] similarly to longitudinal ...
