CQ - CONSCIOUSNESS QUOTIENT INDEX

Paul Von Ward  

 


What is CQ?

In his book, Our Solarian Legacy (pages 187, 235-236, and 281-282), Paul Von Ward developed the concept of a self-rating of one's level of conscious awareness, CQ. Based on beliefs and personal experiences, CQ differentiates among individuals on the basis of how much they deliberately use various aspects of personal consciousness. CQ is independent of both IQ and EQ measures, but complements their coverage to produce a more complete description of an individual's capacities for communication, problem-solving, and personal self-management.

A Questionaire

The questionnaire below was designed to cover all aspects of consciousness currently apparent from human experience; it is not intended to be a definitive measure of all that consciousness might prove to be. Since the scope of one's conscious awareness of the range of human experience is largely a matter of self-motivated intention, it seems appropriate that the the CQ Index be a matter of self-rating. The score gives a snapshot in time of where one stands in relation to others and can be changed on the basis of new knowledge from other sources or personal experience. A higher CQ score indicates a more expansive concept of selfhood.
