Surveys

As a scientific institute, VIA offers well-validated psychological assessments and develops new strengths assessments related to the science of character development.  Please help us validate these important surveys by taking them.  Those in development are clearly marked. 

VIA Inventory of Strengths (VIA Survey) assesses strengths of character, 240 questions, 30-40 minutes, for adults 18+. Authored by Chris Peterson.  Please click here for psychometric information on this instrument. 

VIA Youth Inventory of Strengths Survey measures strengths of character, 198 questions, 40-50 minutes, ages 11-17. Authored by Nansook Park.
