Enneagram Test

The Enneagram Test is a free, 54-item self-report inventory from Science of Apps that takes about 11 minutes. It identifies your most likely Enneagram type and wing from 54 statements rated from strongly disagree to strongly agree — six for each of the nine types (Reformer, Helper, Achiever, Individualist, Investigator, Loyalist, Enthusiast, Challenger, Peacemaker) — written to the Riso-Hudson type descriptions, with each type's core motivation explained. There are no right or wrong answers: answer every item to get your Enneagram Type Profile result card (SOA-ENNE), with your profile and what each scale means. It is based on The Wisdom of the Enneagram and the nine type descriptions (Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson (The Enneagram Institute)).

Science of Apps offers a free Enneagram Test, updated for 2026 and 2027. It measures the nine types, wings, and stress and growth lines and what your type means at work and gives instant results with a shareable certificate.

People exploring personal growth, Coaches and therapists using the Enneagram, Teams building understanding, Spiritual and leadership development groups and Anyone curious about their type. It is a self-report tool for self-awareness, team conversations and career exploration in 2026 and 2027 — not a clinical or diagnostic test, and not a reason on its own to hire or reject anyone.

A model of nine personality types, each driven by a core motivation and fear, arranged on a nine-pointed symbol. Your wing is the neighbouring type (on either side of yours) whose traits also show up strongly in you, written as 5w4 or 5w6.

Treat the result as a hypothesis. Read the descriptions of your top two or three types; most people recognise their type by its core motivation rather than its behaviours. Research support for the Enneagram is more limited than for the Big Five.
