The Jackson Personality Inventory assesses personality variables relevant to the functioning of a person in a wide range of settings such as those involving work, educational/organizational behavior, or interpersonal situations.

The JPI-R's 15 scales are as follows, organized in terms of five higher-order clusters:
Analytical: Complexity, Breadth of Interest, Innovation, Tolerance 
Extroverted: Sociability, Social Confidence, Energy Level
Emotional: Empathy, Anxiety, Cooperativeness
Opportunistic: Social Astuteness, Risk Taking
Dependable: Organization, Traditional Values, Responsibility

The statistical procedures employed in the construction of the JPI are among the most elaborate ever employed for a personality test. Starting with a very large item pool, two separate item analyses on separate samples were undertaken to further three general aims: (a) to maximize item content saturation in relation to desirability variance; (b) to maximize scale reliabilities; and (c) to minimize interscale redundancy.  

Data on JPI validity include analyses of two multitrait, multi-method matrices employing adjective checklist, self rating, and peer ratings.
