Start here
If you are new to SELFTRACE, first understand that the system does not reduce you to a fixed label. It builds a reading based on patterns, areas, contexts, tensions, blind spots, and accumulated evidence.
Help center
A guidance base to understand the method, read your reports, and prepare for more advanced features such as profile sharing and interaction exercises.
Help modules
Method
Patterns, areas, contexts, synthesis, and reading rules.
Cartography
Rounds, continuity, progress, confirmation, and map.
Shared profiles
Permissions, scope, expiration, and good practices.
Interaction
Exercises, participants, guide questions, and one-to-one crossings.
Technical glossary
Clear definitions for the terms used in reports, maps, and analyses.
Method
The system foundation combines patterns, areas, and contexts. On top of that it builds confidence, stability, identity synthesis, and concrete applications.
- Global profile
- Area microprofiles
- Context profiles
- Tensions and blind spots
Reading reports
An identity report does not only tell you which pattern predominates. It also shows secondary patterns, confidence level, variation by area, and interpretation risks.
Situational and applied analyses use that same base to study concrete problems.
Why it helps to know my behavior patterns
It is not just curiosity. Understanding your patterns can help you know yourself better, transform reactions, grow with more judgment, and prevent avoidable conflicts.
Understand what repeats
It helps you distinguish real tendencies from isolated impressions and better read why you react the way you do.
Improve decisions and relationships
When you see your patterns more precisely, you can regulate impulses better, avoid unnecessary clashes, and choose more useful responses.
Arrive better prepared to a professional
If you work with a behavior professional, these reports can organize the conversation and make it more visible what repeats, where it changes, and what deserves further exploration.
General technical glossary
This section translates system language into human language so reports do not depend on ambiguous interpretations.
Pattern
A recurrent tendency of response, protection, impulse, or resolution. It is not a moral label or a fixed sentence.
Primary pattern
It is the pattern currently carrying the most weight in the global reading. It does not mean it acts alone or appears equally in all areas.
Secondary patterns
These are relevant influences that nuance or complicate the main reading. They help avoid simplistic interpretations.
Compensatory pattern
It is the way your system tries to correct, balance, or respond to an excess of the main pattern.
Tension
It is the clash between two of your tendencies pulling in different directions. It does not imply failure; it implies internal conflict to interpret.
Blind spot
It is an area where it is harder for you to see yourself clearly or gauge the impact of how you act.
Confidence
It indicates how much consistency SELFTRACE sees in a signal. It is not absolute certainty: it is the relative strength of the available evidence.
Context stability
It measures how much your reading changes or holds when moving from one scenario to another.
Life area
A concrete part of your life where the system studies how your identity is expressed: work, relationships, energy, health, finances, growth, and so on.
Context
It is a situation or scenario type within an area. It helps show whether your reading changes by environment, pressure, or role.
Measurements
These are responses, observed decisions, or recorded signals that support the reading. The more there are, and the more coherent they are, the stronger the interpretation can be.
Active identity
It is the set of patterns and tensions that seems most involved in a concrete issue. It helps analyze problems without treating a pattern as if it existed in isolation.
Mentor and prescribed habits
They are practical translations of the map: observations, alerts, and suggested adjustments. They are not closed orders, but aids to modulate behavior.
Situational analysis
It is the application of your identity reading to a concrete problem in order to think better about risks, opportunities, response focus, and next steps.
