The NBI Adult A instrument is an alternative to the general Adult instrument with
questions that focus more on general life.
The NBI Adult profile identifies the thinking preferences of the individual.
Gaining insight into the way we prefer to think, makes us more aware of and
sensitive to the preferences of others.
Developing better relationships, making more dynamic contributions in the team
and making sound and relevant decisions are but a few of the advantages of
understanding your own thinking profile. Making more accurate job and career
choices or determining the correct subject or study selections, could
eventually lead to the individual enjoying a more productive and fulfilled
personal and professional life.
The NBI Adult profile measures thinking preferences, and not the skills or
abilities necessary to execute those preferences. It is therefore possible
that an individual could have a very strong preference for order, planning
and organisation, but has never had the opportunity to develop the skills
to plan and organise. The recommendation in this instance would be that since
the desire is there, the skills to support that desire should be developed in
order to be effective in a given career.
