This HEXACO personality test measures Honesty–Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience. It also includes a light Dark Triad overlay, highlighting patterns related to psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissism so you can see how your profile looks on both classic HEXACO and Dark Triad dimensions.
HEXACO + Dark Triad Overview — Six Factors and Shadow Traits
The HEXACO model is a six-factor personality framework that expands on the traditional Big Five. Instead of only measuring Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability, and Openness, it adds a distinct Honesty–Humility dimension and refines how Emotionality and Agreeableness are understood. This makes HEXACO especially useful for exploring integrity, sincerity, fairness, and attitudes toward status or exploiting others.
On Taroscoper, this HEXACO personality test gives you scores for Honesty–Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience. On top of that, a light Dark Triad overlay highlights patterns related to psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissistic tendencies. These signals are presented as self-awareness feedback, not as a diagnosis, helping you reflect on how you handle power, manipulation, empathy, and self-image.
You can use your HEXACO + Dark Triad profile alongside your other Taroscoper personality tests (16 Personalities, Big Five / OCEAN, Enneagram) and mystical tools (tarot, destiny matrix, astrology) to build a more complete picture of your inner world. Many people find that seeing both their strengths and shadow tendencies side-by-side helps them make more conscious choices in relationships, work, and personal growth.
Frequently asked questions
What is the HEXACO personality test?
HEXACO is a six-factor personality model that measures Honesty–Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience. It is often used in research and self-development as an alternative to the classic Big Five or OCEAN framework.
How long does the HEXACO test take?
Most people finish in about 10–20 minutes, depending on the exact item set and how much time they spend on each question. There are no trick questions — answer honestly for the most useful insights.
Does this HEXACO test include Dark Triad traits?
Yes. In addition to the six HEXACO domains, this test includes a light Dark Triad overlay to highlight patterns linked to psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissistic tendencies. These are presented as reflective signals for self-awareness, not as a clinical or diagnostic verdict.
How is HEXACO different from the Big Five / OCEAN model?
The Big Five model uses five broad traits, while HEXACO introduces a sixth factor, Honesty–Humility, and refines how Emotionality and Agreeableness are defined. This makes HEXACO especially useful for exploring themes like fairness, modesty, greed avoidance, and how comfortable you are with bending rules for personal gain.
