Chapter 1: Frequently Asked Questions
DiSC Trainer FAQ’s
What is The DiSC Profile?
DiSC is a self-administering behavioral assessment. The DiSC behavioral system measures dimensions of observable behavior and is known as the universal language of behavior. Research shows that behavioral characteristics can be grouped into four major "personality styles" and individuals tend to exhibit specific characteristics common to that particular style.
The DiSC assessment classifies four dimensions of behavior commonly referred to as:
• Dominance - expresses actively as power, control and assertiveness.
• Influence - expresses actively as outgoing, social and influencing.
• Steadiness - expression is more reserved, patient and thoughtful.
• Conscientiousness - expression is reserved, questioning, and analytical.
Who created the DiSC Model?
The original DiSC model was originally based on the 1928 work of Dr. William Moulton Marston at Columbia University.
The four quadrant behavioral model was developed to examine the behavior of individuals within their environmentally specific situation. DiSC looks at behavioral styles and behavioral preferences. It was Marston's 1928 book, "The Emotions of Normal People," which introduced the DiSC model to the public. Marston, a contemporary of Carl Jung, defined four categories of human behavior style, type, or temperament which are Dominance, Influence (Inducement), Stability (Submission) and Compliant, Conscientious or Caution. Marston used compliance.
Even though Marston developed the D.I.S.C model, the DISC test or assessment, to prove his theory of the emotions of people within their environment, he never copyrighted his disc profile test. Thus DISC is available
7
in the public domain.
Later, the work of Marston was researched and updated by Dr. John Geier and Inscape Publishing at the University of Minnesota. The DiSC model and its complimentary assessment tools have helped over 50 million people in 20+ languages over the last 40 years.
As an added bit of trivia, Marston is known in many circles for his work in developing the lie detector test. He was also the creator, writer and producer of "Wonder Woman" which introduced into comic strips, the role model of a strong female.
Do I need to be Certified to teach DiSC?
No, DiSC Certification is not required.
We at Discprofilestore believe that you, our customers are capable of presenting DiSC and other profiles without us. We provide the resources, tools, and training if necessary, and you do the delivery.

DiSC Certification Note: If you are an experiential learner, and want credentials and more confidence in presenting DiSC, Certification is available through the DiSC Publisher, Inscape Publishing.
Learn more about DiSC Trainer Certification
Can I use the DiSC for Hiring Purposes?
No. The DiSC is not predictive.
It does not precisely determine job fit, job fitness, or success. Instead, it describes one's work behavior patterns, style, traits, or type. Use DiSC to manage performance after a person is hired.
8
Do all D's, i's, S's and C's behave the same way?
No! A person's observable behavior is dependent on the unique combination of styles that they tend to use. The most productive use of DiSC information is to learn about the DiSC Classical Patterns. There are 15 possible combinations of behavior. There is generally a primary style, and a secondary style. It is the combination of styles that makes us all unique.
Why is the "i" in DiSC printed in lower case?
For you curious, high C styles, the lower case "i" in DiSC is an Inscape, trademark - originally a printers error. Being flexible and adaptable, Inscape, Carlson Learning Company, Performax decided to copyright the mistake and create their version of DiSC, using the small i. Always look for the DiSC Assessment with the small i. If your version doesn't have a lower case "i" it is not from Inscape.

Chapter 5: History of Styles
There’s Nothing New About the Study of Behavioral Styles
For thousands of years, humans have been on a quest to better understand themselves and to better understand our human nature, and explain the differences among people. Personality profile systems have been around since 590 BCE. The earliest recorded assessment tool is from ancient Hebrew writings - Ezekiel's Four Living Creatures - Ezekiel 1:1-28. Other well- known profiling systems include Hippocrates' Four Humors (400 BCE), and Galen's Four Temperaments (190 and in modern times, Carl Jung's Psychological Types (1923), the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (1958), Hartman's Color Code (1987) and Kiersey's Four Temperaments (1998).
The ancients believed that the differences in behavior were influenced by variations in the quality and quantity of our body fluids. They referred to the four temperaments as Choleric/Dominant (yellow bile,) Sanguine / Influence (blood,) Phlegmatic / Steadiness (phlegm,) and Melancholic / Conscientiousness (black bile.) References to this early terminology are still used today by some writers involved with religious education.
Four Style Categories
In more recent years, with advances in research and modern psychological theories, more sophisticated models of human behavior have evolved. However, one common denominator remains – they all group behavioral styles into four categories.
William Moulton Marston
The book, Emotions of Normal People, was published in the 1920's by William Moulton Marston. It forms the theoretical basis for the DiSC Model of Behavior and the most recent DiSC Classic Profile. Marston was not concerned with categorizing people into psychological types; rather he focused on categorizing behavior into four types. He theorized that effective people would behave in a manner consistent with the demands and expectations of the environment.
22
This suggests that even though a person may have a core behavioral preference which is most natural and comfortable for that person, a person's behavior will vary from one situation to another
In the 1960's, Dr. John Geier developed an instrument called the Personal Profile System. He conducted further research to refine Marston's model and determined the unique DiSC Classical Profile Patterns which are based upon combinations of the various behavioral styles.
Chapter 6: William Marston's Theory
23
DiSC Theory - William Moulton Marston
Inscape's DiSC products began with a theory based on the work of William Moulton Marston, a Harvard psychologist, and a contemporary of Carl Jung. The findings of his work are found in his book: "The Emotions of Normal People," published in 1928.
While all of his contemporaries studied abnormal behavior, Marston was not interested in mental illness, but rather, in how normal people behaved as they interacted with others and the world around them – their environment.
It was his intent to increase people's understanding of themselves and others while decreasing misunderstandings. He found that two kinds of perceptions are particularly useful for explaining people's response in a particular situation:
Perception of Environment and Perception of Self:
Marston observed that these two kinds of perceptions interact to describe an individual's response to a situation.
Dominance:
When the environment is perceived as unfavorable and the individual feels more powerful than the environment, he or she expresses a Dominant
24
response. This individual will likely try to direct, change, fix, or control the situation.
Influence:
When the environment is perceived as favorable and the individual feels more powerful than the environment, he or she expresses a desire to Influence. This person will likely try to bring others around to his or her point of view - to influence or persuade.
Steadiness:
When the environment is perceived as favorable and the individual feels less powerful than the environment, he or she expresses behaviors that offer support and help others. This person will likely try to keep the situation stable and support those in need.
Conscientiousness:
When the environment is perceived as unfavorable and the individual feels less powerful than the environment, he or she expresses Conscientiousness Behaviors. This person will likely set clear rules within the situation and work very hard to follow them.
While Marston created the DiSC Model, he never developed and instrument by which to measure it. The original DiSC Classic Profile based on the work of Marston was developed by John Geier of Performax Systems International.
For more than thirty years Inscape and its predecessors have researched and refined the original DiSC theory to maximize its impact and accuracy.

30
EPIC Works on an EPIC Credit System. You purchase credits for your EPIC Account and they become the currency used for paying for reports in the EPIC system.
The EPIC Credit System operates very much like a postage meter. You purchase a dollar amount of postage for your meter and it is debited a specific amount each time you send a package or letter.
Similarly, each report in the EPIC system is assigned a credit value. EPIC Credits are deducted from the supply of credits in your account when access codes are assigned to respondents/participants.
EPIC Credits can be used for ANY EPIC report, any time. EPIC Credits do not expire. Lower your report costs by purchasing credits in quantities, receive them into your account electronically, and "bank" them to use with ANY of the current or future EPIC profile reports.
