Dating and Compatibility

MatchScale is a web-based compatibility testing system developed by PsychTests with dating websites in mind. It analyzes 152 attributes, including personality traits, relationship philosophies, communication styles and general values.

To find partners with just the right mix of similar and complementary characteristics, MatchScale's artificial intelligence methods compare the trait patterns of potential couples. Users are then matched with partners who have enough in common to make the relationship stable and safe, and who, at the same time, are different enough to provide variety that helps them grow.

As is the case with most of the services offered by Psychtests, MatchScale can be licensed and integrated into any website and customized to suit your site's design preferences. The assessment and test reports with narrative interpretation can be contextualized for your target audience, and even translated into other languages.

Whether you are interested in an engine that drives your dating site, or some other unique form of compatibility testing, please contact us at your earliest convenience to discuss the matter in greater detail.

Matchscale is the most thorough and comprehensive personality matching system available. It can seamlessly be integrated into any website and tailored to fit your specific needs and budget.

The questions are presented in two unique styles - Situational and Complementary Questions. Situational Questions apply a "create-your-own-adventure" approach that uses real-life situations to reflect the everyday joys and problems faced by every romantic relationship.

The test-taking experience is unique for each person, since the questions will follow different paths, depending on how the users answer.

The questions are presented as multiple choice, checklists or Likert scales. Follow-up questions may be asked depending on the consistency of the responses to ensure an accurate measure for each attribute.


The Personal Report contains an extensive overview the 152 attributes being measured. No two personal reports are alike; the personal report provides a unique Personality and Love Type for each individual.

Depending on the modules obtained, users can view their Values and Communication Types as well. They also receive a detailed analysis of each attribute along with a summary of their strengths and challenges. What's more, they can even consult the advice section for tips on how to overcome their personal limitations.


The Match Report summarizes the potential partner's traits, predicting the joys and problems the couple would likely experience.

MatchScale's analyses are as unique as the person or relationship itself. The test takers can view their compatibility forecast with a report detailing their Common Ground, Complementary Differences and potential Friction points.


Since the MatchScale system has been designed to be modular, the custom-tailored product for every client will be unique.

Our team of psychologists is also able to work with clients to prepare customized subscales if they wish to measure areas not currently covered by our test.
