I had an opportunity to attend a management training last week and we all took a shortened version of the DISC.
Anybody familiar with this?
What do we think about how it's correlated with socionics?
I won't tell my DISC profile right now . . .

I have done it once and was that people holding type.
I looked at it a loooong time ago... I will refresh my memory and get back to you.
I like this test model. Someone posted it at MBTI Central.
I hate DiSC. It's like some discriminatory tool or something, to determine if you're able to lead or not.

*laughs* I've taken a different one (and this one). I started S/I, but after re-taking the test in the following months, I'm now high I. This test... I think it had me S when I took it.
I won't take it now because I know far too much about the types to take it objectively.

Oh dear...
Dominance 24
Influence 4
Steadiness 28
Compliance 44
DOMINANCE = 16
INFLUENCE = 12
STEADINESS = 40
COMPLIANCE = 32
meh, didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know. Heh, the dominance descriptions sounds like a contrast of stereotypical Ni-leading (low dominance) and stereotypical Se-leading (high dominance).

I already know I'm D.
I'd like to have an high score on the I-scale... High-I types are cool people.
D: 68
I: 20
S: 4
C: 8
This was actually the first typology system I was ever exposed to. My parents learned about it in Sunday school.
D: 32
I: 16
S: 24
C: 28

The idea in the system is that everyone has a dominant style, but there's always a secondary style. Possible combinations are D/I, D/C, I/D, I/S, S/C, S/I, C/S, and C/D. D and S are opposites that are not found together (unless one's environment forced him/her to adapt and take on traits of their opposite), as are I and C.
Therefore, if someone isn't sure what type they are because a few of their scores are close, they can look at their lowest score to help them determine it. Implied, for example, would be either an S/I or an S/C (according to her test scores).
(I'm a D/I, btw.)
D: 60
I: 32
S: 4
C: 4
first two scores were in the middle range, last two on the left side of the continuum. not a bad test, pretty accurate.

those who are easily shocked.....should be shocked more often
I personally find D descriptions the most difficult to understand. It could be that my idea of a D is really D/C or C/D. I always think of them as motivated to do whatever task they're given.
Never could figure out whether I should be I/S or I/D.

All of my scores ended up in the low (below 30) range. Usually on other DISC tests, my C score is high, the I score is low and the D and S vary depending on the test.

I changed my mind. I think I'm C/I because I'm not bossy like some Preservational Fives may do. I don't intimidate others, and I'm quite friendly.
I thought of something : S/D and D/S are possible. I'm thinking of Preservational Fours and Intimate Sixes.

C: IJ and/or IxTx

What do they mean by their version of E/I ?
I'm socionics IT and myersian ET. I think I'm C-first or something, despite the test results. I'm interested in leading, but I don't really like to intimidate people, and I'm task-oriented rather than people-oriented.
I don't think I relate much to D or S.
I think it's more related to Etypes than socionic types or myersian types :
D : 3 8
I : 2 7
S : 4 9
C : 1 5

Like Joy said, it's outgoing vs. reserved. I was introduced to the 4-temperament system first as well, and I've been reading about it over a span of about 5 or 6 years.
On another note, the DiSC system irritates me, but I admit that the version I took was pretty good. It measures you on your outward appearance and certain interaction traits, preferred surroundings, etc. Still, once again, it's only as good as the person's view of him- or herself.
*takes test*
D 24
I 40
S 20
C 16
In other words, I'm not "high anything" on this one. I's the only one in mid-range. This is why I dislike the 4-temperament system: can't figure out what the heck I am (some say San/Mel isn't a valid combination).

oic... you sounded quite certain of what you were saying, so I assumed you had some idea what you were talking about.
There's actually a long list of words that describe each of them.
D: dominant, driving, demanding, determined, decisive doer
I: inspirational, influencing, inducing, impressive, interactive, interesting, interested
S: supportive, submissive, stable, steady, sentimental, shy, status-quo, specialist
C: cautious, competent, calculating, concerned, careful, contemplative
Having pulled out the book again, it seems it's outgoing vs. reserved instead of extroverted vs. introverted.
I took this one:

I based it off my history/style at work, not sure if that's what I was supposed to do really. I know I took another version at work some months ago and go C followed by D. I think with the latter I thought I was supposed to do work or personal and then realized I should be doing one or the other instead and switched.
You have a blend of Dominant and Cautious traits. From the results we have so far, we cannot tell which of these traits is the strongest for you. You may have a very balanced blend of both traits.
Some words that describe you are:
- Directive,
- Analytical,
- Results-oriented, and
- Logical
