More on Hartman

Industry Reviews
It's become commonplace: a book is self-published, sells a bundle (in
this case, 250,000 copies), and then gets snapped up by a big
publisher. Hartman helps us sort out personality types by motivation
rather than behavior.
Moore

According to Hartman, a Utah psychologist and business seminar leader
who previously self-published this book, the romantic conflicts in
Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind occur because Scarlett, a Red
(power wielder) is in love with Ashley, an incompatible Blue (do-
gooder) but loved by Rhett, a Yellow (fun-lover), whose passion a Red
can never return. Melanie, a trusting White (peacemaker), suspects
nothing. This assessment is based on a color-code system created by
the author that simplistically reduces human personalities to four
color categories; his book includes a Personality Profile test that
supposedly reveals personality types. Hartman details the strengths
and weaknesses of each type and recommends ways of applying this
knowledge to develop trusting personal and work relationships, along
with suggestions on building character. Useful only if you accept
these silly personality classifications. (Jan.)

I can't believe that they let you be a department chair when you
don't even know about this test.

The Color Code Personality Test is the most accurate of all
personality tests in existence.

Hello all! I'm looking for a little help responding to the query
below from one of my colleagues in the Business Department. My
first reaction is that the test is not to be trusted - my search
in PsycINFO turned up no hits for the Color Code Personality test
and no hits for articles authored by Taylor Hartmann. I also don't
see on the Web site any listing of tests of reliability or validity.
Anyone out there know anything about this test?
Thanks,
Larry

Larry,
If you have the time, take a look at the Color Code Personality
Test at www.hartmancommunications.com and let me know what you
think. As I said yesterday, I use it when discussing elements of
diversity and as a discussion starter when teaching group
techniques. It claims to have validity, reliability, and
reproducibility. What do you think?
Gordon
