Find clarity in the noise.
SignalScore reveals how well you detect meaningful signals—and how your decision style shapes the choices you make.

What SignalScore reveals
A clearer view of how you decide
SignalScore examines how you distinguish meaningful evidence from background noise—and the threshold you use before deciding to act.
Workplace decisions
Understand how you interpret incomplete information, emerging risks, competing priorities, and operational warning signs.
Leadership choices
See whether your decision threshold tends toward early action, balanced judgment, or waiting for stronger evidence.
Theoretical Foundation
Signal Detection Theory
Signal Detection Theory explains decisions made when useful evidence overlaps with ordinary background noise. Because the two are rarely separated perfectly, every judgment involves both the ability to distinguish them and a threshold for deciding when enough evidence is present.
Sensitivity (d′) describes how clearly signal-present situations can be separated from signal-absent situations. Criterion (c) describes where a person places the decision threshold before saying that a signal is present.

Your result combines signal-detection sensitivity with decision-criterion alignment. It is developmental insight—not a psychological or employment test.
Human judgment assessment
How well do you see the signal?
Choose an assessment and make 16 evidence-based decisions. Your SignalProfile will show how effectively you distinguish meaningful patterns from noise—and the threshold you use to act.

0SignalScore ?
SignalScore summarizes how effectively you separated meaningful signals from noise while accounting for how balanced your decision threshold was. Higher values indicate stronger overall signal discernment on this scenario bank.

Sensitivity (d′) ?
0.00
d′ measures how distinctly you separated signal-present scenarios from signal-absent scenarios. A larger positive value indicates clearer discrimination; values near zero indicate difficulty distinguishing the two.
Range in this assessment: approximately −3.19 to +3.19

Descriptive only; speed does not affect your score.
Recorded range: 0–3,600 seconds; no value is inherently better
Decision criterion (c) ?
c describes where you set the threshold for saying a signal was present. Negative values indicate a more action-leaning threshold, positive values indicate a more evidence-leaning threshold, and values near zero indicate a balanced threshold.
Range in this assessment: approximately −1.59 to +1.59
Action-leaningBalancedEvidence-leaning
Action-leaning
You are more willing to act when the evidence is still limited. This can help you catch subtle or early signals, but it can also produce more false alarms.
Evidence-leaning
You prefer stronger evidence before deciding that a signal is present. This can reduce false alarms, but subtle or early signals may sometimes be missed.

SignalScore combines sensitivity and criterion alignment into a single developmental result. Confidence and response time are reported separately and do not affect SignalScore.
