Explore your political values across twelve scales
12 AXES is a free political values quiz on Percy Jackson Cabin that measures your views across twelve two-ended scales — covering governance, international cooperation, economy, and social change — instead of reducing politics to a single left–right or two-axis compass. You can take a 36-question version (~5 minutes) or a 60-question version (~9 minutes), both covering all twelve axes, and receive a values chart, per-axis explanations, and comparisons against eight editorial reference profiles.
Measures twelve separate two-ended scales grouped into four areas (Governance & freedom, Our place in the world, Economy & fairness, Society & change), including decentralization, democratic voice, personal liberty, international cooperation, peaceful negotiation, cultural pluralism, public provisio
Choose a 36-question quick exploration (about 5 minutes, three questions per axis) or a 60-question full exploration (about 9 minutes, five questions per axis). Both versions cover all twelve dimensions.
Receive a chart showing a percentage for each end of every axis (each pair totals 100%), plus explanations of each scale and your position on it.
Results are compared against eight editorial reference profiles across all twelve values, showing similarity rather than assigning a political identity.
Answer on a five-point scale to express strength of agreement; neutral marks a middle position and statements can be skipped if you cannot judge them.
No account is required. Answers stay in your browser via local storage, letting you pause, return, revise earlier answers, and switch language.
Positive and reverse-worded statements are averaged separately and given equal weight; skipped questions are excluded, and axes without answers in both wording directions remain unmeasured.
A share link reveals your twelve axis values and test length, but not your individual answers.
Free. Both the 36-question and 60-question versions are free and require no account.

Quick exploration: about 5 minutes, three questions per axis, covering all twelve axes.
Free
Full exploration: about 9 minutes, five questions per axis, covering all twelve axes.
Yes. Both versions are free and require no account. The 36-question version takes about five minutes; the 60-question version takes about nine. Both cover all twelve axes, with three or five questions per axis.
Answers are mapped onto each axis. Positive and reverse-worded statements are averaged separately, then given equal weight. The two ends of each scale add to 100%.
No. Skipped questions are excluded. An axis needs at least one answer in each wording direction; otherwise it stays unmeasured. Reference matches appear only when all twelve axes can be measured.
No. This is an independent questionnaire on Percy Jackson Cabin, with its own questions, scoring and reference profiles. Scores from different tests are not directly comparable.
The quiz saves answers in your browser, not to an account. A report link reveals your twelve axis values and test length, not your individual answers. Comments are public and separate from your saved answers.
Yes, in the same browser with local storage available. You can revisit questions, switch language and continue. Starting over clears the saved attempt, and using another device will not restore it.
Each axis shows a percentage at each end, and each pair totals 100% — they are not shares of the population. Read the scales before the profile match: a middle score can reflect moderate views or mixed answers, and a profile match describes similarity to a reference profile, not a political identity.
Twelve dimensions grouped into four areas: Governance & freedom (decentralization, democratic voice, personal liberty), Our place in the world (international cooperation, peaceful negotiation, cultural pluralism), Economy & fairness (public provision, market allocation, open trade), and Society & change (secular policy, social change, technological exploration).
