Grove-Hodson 7HT Inventory
by Dr. Greg A. Grove, copyright 2008
This is an inventory of your interests and preferences. It is easily completed by first printing out this form, then following the directions given. Since this is not a mental ability test, you may refer to a dictionary if you so desire.
There are 7 sets of 7 words and ideas. You are to look over the first set of words. Then choose the first word that greatly interests you and put a 1 by it; then look over the remaining words and find the next word that interests you and put a 2 by it. Continue doing so until all the items have been ranked from 1 (most) to 7 (least). For example, here is how one person ranked the planets given him:
__1__ d. Mercury
__5__ g. Moon
__2__ a. Sun
__4__ c. Saturn
__6__ f. Mars
__7__ b. Jupiter
__3__ e. Venus
