More About the RHETI—
The Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator

The Enneagram Institute offers the Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator (RHETI), the world's best-selling Enneagram test, selected by Time magazine as one of the top online personality tests, and the only Enneagram test that has been independently scientifically validated.

Unfamiliar with Enneagram Personality Typing?

See our Introduction to the Enneagram and the condensed Enneagram Type Descriptions.

If you have professional interest in the RHETI and are considering purchasing an ongoing quantity of tests for your business, we'd be happy to arrange for a few free takes of the full validated RHETI for your evaluation. Please contact our office with your name, company name, position, and details about your professional interest. We hope that the RHETI will become an important component of your personality evaluation resources.

What You Get

• The world's most popular and authoritative Enneagram test. Called "The Test for Accurate Enneagram Typing," see reviews at Amazon.com.
• Automatically tabulated, graphical results from the world's most revealing and only independently scientifically validated Enneagram test.

• Results differ in the online and booklet versions of the RHETI.

  Online Version: Results of your RHETI will include links to the Expanded Enneagram Type Descriptions for your top three scores. See a free sample of Type Eight, the Challenger. These type descriptions have been revised and updated to provide the most comprehensive type summaries available and include:

  • Your Directions of Integration, Stress, and Security
  • The 3 Instinctual Variants of your type
  • Your type's Hidden Side
  • Your type's issues with relationships
  • Your type's 9 Levels of Development
  • Your type at its best and what helps your type to grow

  If there are ties among the RHETI results, or near-ties (if the scores of two types are plus or minus 1 point), we consider the results of the RHETI to be ambiguous, and you will be offered a free second take of the test at your convenience.

  Booklet Version: The type descriptions provided in the RHETI booklet are shorter than those provided with the online RHETI results for production reasons. View the nine type descriptions provided in the RHETI Booklet.

Endorsements

This was incredibly revealing and absolutely spot on. I saw myself in every line of the description of Twos. So often, online tests (I.Q. tests, personality tests, etc) are very generic and sometimes easy to manipulate in order to obtain the results you want, but this exam was tamper proof. It gets to the truth, even if subconsciously you may not want it to. To say this was money well spent is an understatement.
—J.A., Massachusetts

"Your descriptions get to the root of the personality. After years of therapy, I had remained confused about my type. With your wonderful test and expanded profiles of the types, I have had new insight and a platform for developing awareness and transformation. Thank you so much!"—Leoni Phelan, Australia

"RHETI test was extremely helpful! I ended up with almost a tie in type 4 and 5 (both very high numbers) and after reading the extended type descriptions, type 5 just 'spoke to me'! It was so accurate it was frightening. It almost seems like you know me (even the 'secret' parts). It was so comforting and exhilirating to know that I am not just an oddball. Nothing is 'wrong' with me. I'm simply a 5w4. Others share my same traits. I can now focus on my good traits and avoid the blindspots. Thanks so much!"—JN, St. Augustine, Florida

Administrative Options

If you're administering this test to clients, please be aware that you need to have studied the Enneagram yourself to be able to explain the test results and possible anomalous findings. Research indicates that the primary type is most likely one of the top three scores, but in order to distinguish which one is correct, you need to have sufficient background to interpret the meaning of the types and the system as a whole. While we encourage people to use the RHETI, we also want to warn you that doing so without sufficient background and training can cause confusion and mistyping.

• Simple Administration
  All of your test takers use the same Username and Password. Uses are deducted from your account as the tests are taken. You will receive an email copy of each test taker's results.

• Full Administration
  You assign a unique Password to each test taker, and have the options of sending system emails to your users, tracking who has and has not completed the test, and determining whether test results are sent to you and/or the test taker. More details.
