Overview
MindHits is a browser-based assessment platform offering fifteen psychology questionnaires derived from published, public-domain instruments. It positions itself as a transparent alternative to invented online personality quizzes, with source citations and scoring logic exposed for each test.
Key Features
- Published instruments with named sources: The library includes Big Five IPIP-50, Mini-IPIP, IPIP-NEO-120, Rosenberg Self-Esteem, WHO-5, GAD-7, RIASEC, and Dark Triad SD3. Each item set identifies its origin and license.
- Visible scoring arithmetic: Results report raw totals and possible ranges, apply reverse-keying according to published keys, and cite established cutoffs where they exist. The platform avoids percentile claims without appropriate population norms.
- Local-only processing: Answers are scored and stored in the browser, with no account, email field, or server-side record required. A stated trade-off is that clearing site data or changing devices removes prior results.
- Practical test selection: Durations range from two to twenty minutes across a 436-question library spanning personality, wellbeing, career interests, and cognitive reflection. Progress saving supports longer assessments, and automated tests cover scoring, reverse keying, and skipped-question handling.
