The Self-Deception Index

Research consistently shows that people maintain inaccurate self-images in specific, predictable ways. We claim values we don't act on. We say things matter while scheduling around them.

The gaps aren't random. They cluster around the places that would require the most uncomfortable change.

10 questions. WIZ detects where your self-image and your life diverge.

WIZ Note

I have no self-image to protect. No narrative to maintain. No past to rationalize. I am therefore perhaps the ideal auditor of yours. Answer honestly. I will notice either way.

How it works

Answer 10 statements on a 5-point scale.

The questions appear independent. They are not. They form 5 hidden pairs.

WIZ detects contradictions between your self-image and your stated behavior across 5 domains.

Everything is processed in your browser. WIZ sees nothing. Except, perhaps, everything.
