INTRODUCTION

KYKO, an acronym for Know Yourself Know Other, is a psychometric personalityassessment tool designed from the incorporation of existing Personality Theories by

Bernard Ah Thau Tan to discover yourself and a significant other.

The five (5) dimensional model of personality analysis is built based on the followingpremises:

Human behaviour is motivated by need, satisfaction and deprivation. Human behaviour is a function of our genes, experiences, cognition and the

environment. Human personality lies in the continuum of the static and the dynamic areas. Human personality lies in the continuum of the normal and the abnormal

areas. Human personality is not static. It is dynamic and alive. It actualizes and de-

actualizes with current and future experiences. No two human beings are alike even though they are identical twins growing

up in the same environment due to genetic differences.The five (5) dimensions of a KYKO Personality Profile are as follows: -

Self Actualization (SA)A need or desire for achievement, growth, fulfilment and to find meaning in life.

Security (SE)A need or desire for safety, order, certainties, structure, system and protection.

Manipulative (M)A need or desire for information, influence, adaptation, change and utilize others for

survival and to satisfy and perpetuate dominant needs.

Socio-centric (SO)

A need or desire or need for love, care, companionship, belonging, affiliation, social

interaction and acceptance.

Ego-Centric (E)

A need or desire for power, status, fame, style, image, recognition, respect, dominanceand to control the environment.

The five dimensions are organized into a superimposed pentagon known as thespider web. The spider web is to interpret patterns of human behaviour based on thescores of the high and low of each dimension varying in intensities. The average ofthe high and low of each dimension determines typology of infinite personality types.The relationship(s) between the five dimensions and the personality types providesinformation of the behavioural pattern to interpret traits, characteristics andbehaviour. KYKO report is drawn from the respondent's KYKO Personality Formula
