Instructions for Instruments

For Registered Guests of Domestic SonScape Retreats

Emily and I have the privilege of leading the retreat that you will be attending in the coming days. We are looking forward to meeting you and are excited to see how this retreat will empower you to be more effective in ministry.

At the retreat we will get an opportunity to discuss personality type during group sessions. You will also get personalized times with us to focus on your own personal growth and any action steps you would like to take based on your assessments.

Before you attend the retreat, we need you to fill out 3 Assessments. These assessments will provide us some information about you, your personality type, and your temperament (emotional and mental health) along with your spouse’s temperament (if you are married). Completing these assessments in advance will help us be more effective in serving you. Be assured that we will keep your assessment and results completely confidential.

Once you have completed all 3 Steps below, you are finished with your preparation. We look forward to serving you!

MBTI Assessment (30-40 mins)

• Click BEGIN.
You will be asked to provide some personal information.
(Note: Only first name and last name are required; all other demographic information is optional.)
• Click SUBMIT when finished.

Step 3: TJTA

Step 3: Taylor-Johnson Temperament Analysis (T-JTA)
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
We will provide you with your results during your retreat.
 
T-JTA Assessment (30-45 mins)

You will EACH (if married) receive an email invitation to take your assessment from noreply@tjta.com with the subject line: “You have been invited to take the T-JTA.” This is your personal login; only answer from you own login. Please check your spam or junk mail folders if you do not see the invitation in your inbox. This email will be sent about 6 weeks before your retreat starts; you will get a form due reminder at that time from Becky telling you to look for this email.    

• If you are single, you will need to follow instructions for the the SELF ASSESSMENT.
• If you are married, you will follow the instructions for the CRISS-CROSS ASSESSMENT. You will go through the questions twice; first with how you view yourself; then AGAIN with how you view your spouse.
• Do not think too long about any one question. There are no right or wrong answers.
• Avoid MID/Neutral responses when possible (a test with 15 or more mids will result in having to re-take the test).
• Remember to take the T-JTA assessment twice – if you are married (twice per spouse).
