If you plan to use/offer the 16PF5

If you plan to use/offer the 16PF5 in your online dating site please remember:

In compatibility matching methods there are 2 steps:
1) to objectively measure personality traits or other human variables (with the 16PF5 test).
2) to calculate compatibility between prospective mates.


You can use the 16PF5, the 15FQ+ clone or hire Dr. Houran and Dr. Lange's services to develop a copycat of the 16PF5 test at the cost of USD100,000 per norm and language.
You should administer the test to persons over 26 years old (personality consolidated) and better will be persons over 35 years old who had used online dating several times and failed (like eHarmony users) You can court eHarmony users, and steal them if begin offering the 16PF5 test to assess personality.

I recommend to control if women are normally cycling or taking contraceptive pills.
In a previous post in my blog I had explained that.
Men should take the test at least 3 times and also synchronize with biorhythms (for future Research purposes).
Women not taking contraceptive pills should take the test at least 3 times:  7 days before, in their real periods and 7 days after, and also synchronize with biorhythms (for future Research purposes).
Women  taking contraceptive pills should take the test at least 3 times:  7 days before, in their false periods and 7 days after, and also synchronize with biorhythms (for future Research purposes).
"Innovations: to take the 16PF5 test 3 times"
If a person can not take the 16PF5 test 3 times, he/she is not a serious dater and should be discarded.
Lots of persons could be interested in meeting/contacting other persons sharing nearly the same personality because they will be *predictable* for them.
I think women will love a rational explanation of why they need to take the test 3 times, with these 2 fresh papers
"Human oestrus" Gangestad & Thornhill (2008)
explains that "Only short-term but not long-term partner preferences tend to vary with the menstrual cycle"
"Does the contraceptive pill alter mate choice in humans?" Alvergne & Lummaa (2009)
If you carefully read that milestone paper you will discover that although men do not take contraceptive pills, they detect women who do not take and women who take those pills or other hormonal contraceptive methods.

A Marketing campaign should be incisive in this new discovery:
contraceptive hormonal methods alter mate choice in humans because only short-term but not long-term partner preferences tend to vary with the menstrual cycle.

PLEASE DO REMEMBER:
In compatibility matching methods there are 2 steps:
1) to objectively measure personality traits or other human variables (with the 16PF5 test).
2) to calculate compatibility between prospective mates.

Breaking "the online dating sound barrier" is to achieve far better precision than searching on one's own or mutual filtering.

Actual Online Dating sites are fully intoxicated with different versions of the FFI five factor inventory / Big5 (eHarmony, MeeticAffinity, Parship, Be2) or other proprietary models instead (like Chemistry or PerfectMatch), to measure personality traits, and all of those tests are more simplified versions than the 16PF5 normative personality test.

Breaking "the online dating sound barrier" is to achieve at least:
3 most compatible persons in a 100,000 persons database.
12 most compatible persons in a 1,000,000 persons database.
48 most compatible persons in a 10,000,000 persons database.
100 times better than Compatibility Matching Algorithms used by actual online dating sites!

The only way to achieve that is:
- using the 16PF5 normative personality test, available in different languages to assess personality of members, or a proprietary test with exactly the same traits of the 16PF5. The ensemble of the 16PF5 is: 10E16, big number as All World Population is nearly 6.7 * 10E9
- expressing compatibility with eight decimals, like The pattern 6.7.6.8.9.6.7.7.8.7.2.5.8.7.3.4 is 92.55033557%  +/- 0.00000001% similar to the pattern 7.7.6.8.8.7.6.5.8.7.4.5.7.7.3.4
Using a quantized pattern comparison method (part of pattern recognition by cross-correlation) to calculate similarity between prospective mates. guess.... LIFEPROJECT METHOD.

That is the only way to revolutionize the Online Dating Industry.

All other proposals are .............. NOISE
