Instructions:

• Each question presents a scenario or statement.

• Choose the option that best describes how you would respond in that situation.

• There are no right or wrong answers; just choose the answer that most accurately reflects your personality and approach.

The purpose of this questionnaire is to encourage honesty. Please select the response that truly reflects what you would do, rather than what you think is the 'right' answer.
