People wanting to know who they are and whether or why their life’s activities do not match what they feel look to “personality tests”. However, a test, with its “correct” or “incorrect” responses fail to reveal one’s core values, or ethos. Over the millennia, four valued virtue ethics systems have emerged, and one or more, a combination of them, or a synthesis of them all may be the one that accomplish the goal of the “personality “test”. This article, by settling on a paradigm case, places Authentic Systems under the microscope to see if it fulfills the central goal of identifying one’s value system that is the source of their life theme, or pattern of behavior. 57 Pages
