Question: Has the Enneagram Tritype® Test v8 completed the 3-year Beta Testing Phase?

Katherine: The Enneagram Tritype® Test v8 (ETTv8) has successfully concluded its beta testing phase and is now available for public access! Over an extensive 3-year beta testing period involving hundreds of thousands of participants, the test results have provided invaluable insights and unveiled new and novel patterns with the types.

Designed with meticulous attention, this Enneagram Tritype® Test seeks to determine the most likely Enneagram Type, Tritype®, Tritype® Stacking Patterns, Instinctual Types, Subtypes, Instinctual Stackings, and even the "Lexiconality" associated with each Type, Tritype®, and Instinct.

This test was based on the integration and culmination of all materials and knowledge acquired from three certification programs with the first teachers, intensives with both Oscar Ichazo and Claudio Naranjo, and 23 research studies, that included six testing instruments, 3-hour In-depth Inquiry Interviews, and coaching sessions with tens of thousands of participants. It also included adding what was lost or unknown about the types and removing errors in the transmission of the types.

After many decades of working with people using the Enneagram, which began in 1985, I recognized how disheartening it was when they could not discover their lead Enneagram type. Many mistyped for long periods of time, and/or changed their type two or three times, only to finally back into their type years later. As a result, they were less engaged in the benefits of the Enneagram, often missing the transformational aspects of their type(s) until they finally identified their Truetype™. The primary focus of ETTv8 was to help those who struggle with testing instruments.

The ETTv8 seamlessly integrates eight distinct testing instruments into a singular experience, tailored to the nuanced individuality of each participant. Even when participants share the same Tritype®, their resulting Enneacards can vary, revealing additional patterns of attention. The choices made by the test-takers at the outset and throughout the test shape the delivery of the Enneacards; when they show up, their frequency, as well as the length of the test itself. Together, these elements combine to create a highly personalized testing instrument that can identify the patterns, which when understood, enable one to delve deeply into their core Enneagram Type, Tritype®, and Instincts.

I wish to extend my profound gratitude to all who participated in the various test versions and generously provided feedback. Your input, beginning with the first 500 participants in my first 1994 Enneagram Study on the “internal experience” of the types, to the subsequent tens of thousands of international participants, and now the diverse studies involving hundreds of thousands of participants, has been integral to uncovering invaluable insights about the types.

The selection of words, adjectives, and the ranking of Enneacards and sentences have provided fresh perspectives on how different types perceive themselves. For those eager to embark on a comprehensive Enneagram assessment enriched with nuanced insights, the Enneagram Tritype® Test v8 is available at https://enneagramtritypetest.com.

You can now take advantage of ETTv8 for a nominal fee of $25.00. Your test results will be accessible for a month, and the option to extend the timeframe is available upon sign-up. Additionally, you can download your test results for future reference.

This contribution to self-discovery and understanding the types on a deeper level has been made possible through the dedication of Enneagram enthusiasts worldwide who have supported my work by participating in numerous studies since 1994. Their involvement has been instrumental in refining this tool to its current state.

Your participation and feedback have enabled us to identify the distinct patterns that types utilize when engaging with testing instruments. Notably, these patterns can now specifically detect the unique traits of type 6 and type 9. As a result, individuals with these types, including those with both type 6 and type 9 in their Tritype®, receive alerts about these distinctive patterns.

This enhancement has facilitated the discovery of their Tritype®, earlier rather than later, making it possible to develop the critical self-awareness needed to create change. Thank you for your pivotal role in creating an assessment tool that empowers individuals to better understand their personalities through the lens of Enneagram Types, Tritypes®, Instincts, and Subtypes.
