Test Score

 

Test results

Every tested feature is estimated on a six-degree scale from +3 (Optimal) to -3. All features have individual coefficients based on the feature's trainability and on the other hand inheritability.

These coefficients are

 Capacity to Function
 Tendency to aggressive behavior
 Desire for defense action
 Desire for fight
 Nerves
 Temperament
 Hardness
 Accessibility

Amount of nervousness is impossible to train, but for instance defense actions are easy to train, so the coefficients are different.

The test results come in the form of points - maximum amount of points is 300. You should not be as concerned with overall total sum of the points - you should look and understand separately the scoring in every tested feature.

The scoring is done as follows: If the dog gets a +2 in "Capacity To Function" his score for that feature will be 30 (+2 times the coefficient of 15). If the dog gets -3 in "Tendency to Aggressive Behavior" his score for that feature would be -3 (-3 times the coefficient of 1). His total score after two features would be 27 (+30-3).

The test-result sheet has been changed 1996. To improve readability of the results the earlier extensions (a,b,c,d) have been removed.
