About the Bass Orientation Inventory

This test consists of twenty-seven statements of opinions and attitudes.

For each question, the individual is asked to indicate which of three alternatives, A, B, or C, is most true, or most preferred, or most important to you. A, B, or C is thus written in the MOST column.

Then the individual chooses the least true or least preferred of the three alternatives and write its letter in the LEAST column.

Individuals must mark one alternative in each column. If A is entered under Most, then either B or C should be marked under Least, and so on. Individuals are cautioned not to debate too long over any one statement; a first reaction is desired.

Sample Inventory Question MOST LEAST
1. One of the greatest satisactions in life is:    
  A. Recognition for your efforts.    
B. The feeling of a job well done.    
C. The fun of being with friends.
