What Is the IMDP Model?
The Integrated Multi-Dimensional Psychometric (IMDP) model is AtmanCo’s framework (supported by a patent-pending method/tool) for understanding and aligning human potential with organizational needs.
Developed over decades of psychological, behavioral science, and AI research, it combines a wide range of multi-dimensional individual assessment measures with various organizational data, resulting in increased productivity, added innovation, and improved performance for individuals and the organization.
What Does the IMDP Model Measure?
Unlike traditional models that assess each individual characteristic independently, IMDP harmonizes multi-evaluation measures to provide an all-encompassing talent profile that truly reflects a global view of the individuals’ natural capabilities and how they interact in a supportive, stimulating, and resourceful working environment.
Individuals
Multi-dimensional Individual Measures
Gather data about individuals to fully understand their core traits, behaviors, preferences, and tendencies.
- Cognitive abilities
- Learning habits
- Personality traits and skills
- Competencies
- Behavior style
- Individual values
Company
Multi-dimensional Organizational Data
Accumulate information about the organization, it's functioning, values, and structure to better match it with ideal candidates.
- Mission
- Culture
- Team
- Projects
- Jobs
Why Integrating Different Measures Matters:
Through a combined view of psychometric profiles (FIT Global), incorporating psychometric results, skills, job-related data, manager, team, and organizational culture data in a single view, it allows HR professionals to understand and analyze the various interrelated factors with greater efficiency.
Having one focal point of multiple assessment types and diverse organizational data gives HR professionals a deeper understanding of the potential and development of talent within their organization.
Enables value-added integration with other HR systems for even faster and more effective talent management decision-making.
Used Throughout the Employee Lifecycle
Integrating different data into a single environment significantly increases the use and added value of talent-related data throughout the employee lifecycle
Effectively filter candidate profiles while identifying high-potential applicants based on task, role, managerial position, team, and organizational culture characteristics.
Anticipate support needs from the outset, guide the training needs of new employees, support managers based on employees’ learning habits, and achieve greater team cohesion quickly.
Move individuals by revealing each team member’s strengths, motivations, and interpersonal dynamics in order to adapt leadership and optimize collective commitment.

Scientific Foundations
The IMDP model combines highly recognized and validated models (see below) to find measure correlation (Convergent Validity) within respected psychometric instruments while integrating the various results from a full range of assessments into a single-view environment.
AtmanCo has been working with independent academic experts in the fields of psychometric and personality assessment. They have conducted over a decade of research studies and statistical analyses to validate the IMDP model’s impact on employee performance and retention. In the last 5 years, AtmanCo added another layer to its model. The model is supervised by a unique Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to enhance the model's results. With continuous refinement through real-world usage and academic research, the IMDP model remains one of the most rigorous and reliable ones in the market, backed by independent researchers and ongoing data-driven validation.
With millions of assessments completed and 14+ years of scientific validation, the IMDP model is trusted by leading organizations to fuel smarter hiring, better integration and engagement, and stronger performance.
Here are some of the selected models that AtmanCo uses to conduct Convergent Validity for the IMDP model:
A cognitive ability test used to assess problem-solving skills and mental proficiency, particularly in pre-employment settings.
A widely used psychological assessment tool that measures personality traits based on the Five-Factor Model (FFM).
An assessment tool to identify an individual’s preferred learning style and understand how their learning approach can be more effective.
A career assessment tool to understand an individual’s preferred work values (qualities they seek in their jobs and careers).
