The framework gets more interesting the more you play with it. These pages are for learning the nine types and three instincts, testing what you know, and having a little fun — with yourself or with friends.
What's not here: the actual VecNine type calculation (use the calculator — type is calculated from your birthdate, not quizzed). And the actual instinct stack finder, which lives under Tools → Instinct Quiz — it’s sequence-anchored and uses your verified top types as ground truth.
Each track pairs a comprehensive study guide with a 20-question quiz. Difficulty ramps from late-high-school recognition through graduate-level distinctions. Read the guide first. The quiz tests exactly what the guide covers.
Gut, Heart, Head — the three processing channels behind the nine types. The most foundational structural read in VecNine.
Compliant, Assertive, Withdrawn — how each type moves toward, against, or away from people. The other tripartite organizing principle.
The instinct variant within each type that runs against the typical pattern. The single most useful protection against mistyping in the system.
Tier 2 sits on top of the foundations. These quizzes test the interpretive layer — how to actually read a sequence, how pairs interact, how to spot patterns in famous figures. Take the Tier 1 quizzes first.
The five regions, how positions 1 and 2 combine, why missing types feel foreign rather than weak, and the canonical first-pass reading protocol. The interpretive layer.
How two sequences interact in close relationships — complementarity, friction, blind spots, the patterns that recur across romantic and professional pairs.
From bio details to type prediction — the practical pattern-recognition skill that distinguishes a careful reader from a guesser. Calibration against the verified database.
Quizzes for learning the framework — how the types behave, where the centers split, how the three instincts express. Each is built around the meta “for studying, not for typing.” Your VecNine type is calculated; these are how you study what the calculation means.
Twenty-seven statements — three per type. Rate each on agreement; the result is a resonance map showing which of the nine types describes you most strongly. Useful for seeing where you cluster and where you don’t.
Twenty-five questions covering type traits, centers, Hornevian groups, and the confusions that come up most often. Tests how well you actually know the system — the kind of test a study group would run on each other.
Twenty-one observation-based questions for learning how Self-Preservation, Social, and Sexual / one-to-one express. For learning, not for finding your stack — the sequence-anchored deep quiz is the actual stack-finder.
Pattern games, daily puzzles, and pieces built around the VecNine vocabulary. Some are single-player; some are made to be played alongside friends as a typing-calibration exercise. Most are anonymous-playable; signed-in members land on the leaderboards.
Pattern-recognition game. We show you a famous figure — bio, a small piece of context, no birthdate. You pick which of the nine types runs the show as their dominant. Score lives in your browser.
Daily puzzle. A famous figure drawn from the database — bio only, no birthdate, no type label. You guess the dominant before the reveal. Streaks tracked locally; shareable spoiler-free result like Wordle.
Daily 16-tile grid. Group into four sets of four — categories drawn from type lexicons, center groupings, instinct expressions, and the wider VecNine vocabulary. Four mistakes max. Spoiler-free shareable result like Wordle.
Daily 4×4 letter grid. Find as many VecNine vocabulary words as you can — passions, virtues, defense terms, instinct labels, type lexicons. Time-attack; leaderboard ranks by word count plus time.
Looking for the actual instinct-finder, not a study quiz? The sequence-anchored deep instinct quiz uses your verified VecNine top types as ground truth and identifies your stack from the convergence pattern across types. It’s public — no membership required — and lives under Tools in the nav.
