This is a paid version of the “Leopold Sondi Portrait Attraction Test” (Lipot Sonnenshine), which has been used extensively by psychiatrists and psychologists since the forties of the last century. The purpose of the test is to identify the social, asocial, healthy and pathological trends of the subjects. The portrait test is suitable for people of any nationality and social affiliation, and is based on the author’s own concept - "Fate analysis". Allows you to diagnose the personality, identify the professional inclinations of the subject.
        
        The method is based on several assumptions:
        
        1. Mental characters are genetically reflected in the appearance (appearance) of people;
        2. All people unconsciously “read” such characters from the appearance of others and have an attraction (aversion) to similar ones (instinctive physiognomy?);
        3. The pathological characters of the mentally ill (according to L. Sondi there are eight of them - epilepsy, hysteria, sadism, homosexuality, catatonia, paranoid schizophrenia, depression, mania) - these are acute universal psychic tendencies. Those. all people have certain signs, if not pronounced, but of pathologies.
                    
        Based on a pilot study on a large group of people (in psychiatric clinics) with mental disabilities and accurate psychiatric diagnoses, L. Sondi, analyzing their medical history and medical history of their closest relatives, developed the concept of “Fate analysis” and this portrait test. The ideas of Z. Freud and K.G. had a serious influence on this concept. Jung, but the beginning was the study of the creativity and character of F.M. Dostoevsky.

        When developing this application, the author used:
        - "Fate analysis." Lipot Sondi.
        - "Practical Psychology. Projective Techniques." V.B. Shapar, O.V. Shapar.
        - "The method of portraiture election." L.N. Dog
        - Materials from the site mirtestoff.ru
        
        The author took the responsibility to slightly modify the algorithm for choosing the final personality characteristic, making it more informative: the STP test phase does not discard the two remaining portraits as conditionally “pleasant”, but continues to “dial” in the form of “choose one unpleasant”. Justification for this: psychologists already refer to the “Judicial Analysis” of L. Sondi as “non-canonical” to the STD stage. But this affects the application so that the result of the personality characteristic can have several "ambiguous" answers in one conclusion, which, according to the author, is of higher value (in fact, the algorithm looks for the intersection of the RFP and the CPP). The author does not insist on the uniqueness of this decision.
        In addition, the sequence of portraits is always sorted randomly, which, according to the author, increases the validity for repeated use of the test (eliminates the "mechanical" choice of the subject).
        
        About psychological tests:
        
        A psychological test (psychodiagnostics) is a certain procedure for examining certain psychological qualities of a person. Psychological tests are used in various fields and have a wide variety of types.
        The main characteristics of the psychological test:
        
        - the validity of the test is the degree to which the test results correspond to the psychological quality of the person for whose study it is intended;
        - reliability of the test - the property of a psychological test to give similar or close results when re-testing;
        - the reliability of the test is the ability of the test to resist the intentional or unconscious attempts of the subject to distort or falsify the test results.

        A complete portrait test L. Sondi meets the above requirements.
