The second question of the survey targets the perception of the job, rather than the perceived demand of the environment and people at large. This distorts the analysis of adaptation, especially when it comes from past experiences and from people outside the workplace.

	~~The scales~~ of the ~~factors seem~~ to ~~be deciles~~, which ~~negatively affect~~ the precision ~~of the analyses~~ and the ~~use of~~ the ~~results~~.		By design, CI doesn't measure a person's engagement, which results from a lack of stimuli in the environment. This also means it doesn't assess the energy it takes for adapting to their job, which is influenced by organizational and management efforts—or the lack thereof—and not solely by the individual.

			The ingenuity assessment lacks precision and nuances that impair its utility. The measure is self-rated and closely linked to CI's A factor, as the statistics provided by the publisher suggest. Cognitive skills, such as ingenuity, might be better evaluated through tests, like those used for intelligence, skills, or abilities. Ingenuity can be expressed in various ways. The four primary factors could reveal this.

The first question asks the respondents to describe themselves, and the second asks them to describe how they must behave to be successful in their current position. It takes up to 20 minutes to answer. Four primary dimensions are measured, shown with dots in the CI graphs, and designated with the letters A, B, C, and D. Three additional dimensions are measured; one, Logic, seems to be calculated on top of the four primary dimensions.
