Why OAD Has the Highest Validity
in the Industry

Unlike most personality tests, the OAD Survey isn’t built for fun.

It’s built for accuracy, compliance, and real business decisions.

 No Card Required

Backed by over 35 years of validation data, OAD meets or exceeds the standards of:

U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)

American Psychological 
Association 
(APA)

British Psychological Society (BPS)

Canadian Psychological Association
(CPA)

Association of Test Publishers 
(ATP)

Buros Institute of Mental Measurements

It’s also the ONLY adjective-based behavioral tool of its kind —
delivering more insight in 10 minutes than most assessments do in hours.

Why OAD.ai Beats
DISC, MBTI & PI for Hiring Accuracy

Adjective-Based Format

Participants freely choose words that describe them — not forced multiple choice.

Behavioral Predictability

It doesn’t just describe traits. It predicts real-world fit, communication, and leadership capacity.

Role Fit & Team Fit

OAD shows whether someone’s built to thrive in a role — and how they’ll collaborate with others.

Bias-Resistant & Game-Proof

No obvious “right answers.” No ability to fake your way through it.

10,000+ Role-Performance Studies

Validated against business outcomes: retention, performance, and leadership success.

The result?

OAD can predict how someone will actually behave at work — not just how they describe themselves.
