The Arno Profile System (APS) is a computerized report based on the theory of the five (5) temperaments.  The fifth temperament, the Supine, was discovered by Drs. Richard and Phyllis Arno in 1983 following research conducted with 5000 individuals.  The five temperaments are Choleric, Melancholy, Sanguine, Phlegmatic, and Supine. Most people are a combination of more than one temperament. Learn more about the five temperaments here.

 

The APS is a faith-based tool available for adults, adolescents, children, and personnel. It is not a personality test.  The APS identifies an individual's inborn temperament. Temperament is God given so that we can accomplish in life whatever He designed us to do.  Even, at birth, every newborn baby is different.  Temperament is evidenced by the fact that observation of infants and children show that each of us are born with great differences. We recommend that parents have us test their child using the Arno Profile System at age seven. 

​

The APS identifies temperament in three areas:

 

• Inclusion - social orientation and intellectual energy.

• Control- willingness to make decisions and accept responsibility.

• Affection - need to express and receive love.
