Instrument Overview

In July 2017, the VIA Institute completed and released a substantial revision of the VIA Inventory of Strengths, as well as the development of several new scales. These new assessments are part of the VIA Assessment Suite for Adults. For each of these assessments signature strengths, 24 strength scales, 6 scales representing the Peterson and Seligman (2004) virtue model, and 3 scales representing the McGrath (2015) virtue model can be computed.
