The evaluation
…occurs here (refer also to "Profilizer") without any claim to rightness, universality or judgment! It does not give a result of "how or what someone is", rather it provides a response as to how the feedback receiver is perceived. For this discussion of interpretation, our orientation toward systemic values and humanism also applies. The "truth" comes into being during the discussion – not on the document.
