Built on Dr. Ashley Goodwin Lowe's Cognitive Diversity Appreciation (CDA™) research. ShapeID™ is a cognitive framework, not a personality test or clinical tool.

ShapeID™ is a cognitive self-identifier. It is not a clinical instrument. The shapes in this framework have not been linked to any clinical diagnosis. ShapeID is not a diagnostic tool and is not a substitute for medical, psychological, or psychiatric evaluation. ShapeID does not identify, screen for, or determine whether someone is neurodivergent or neurotypical, or has any medical or psychological condition. A ShapeID profile is not a legal, medical, or clinical determination or classification of any individual. These shapes represent cognitive thinking preferences — the natural architecture of how a mind processes, contributes, and connects. There are no right or wrong answers — only your honest selected preferences. All shapes are value neutral, meaning no shape is greater than another. ShapeID must never be used, in any capacity, to screen, favor, or exclude an individual based on their ShapeID profile, including in hiring, promotion, selection, or decision-making.

ShapeID — including all related frameworks, research, data, and future development — stands on its own as an original, independent work created by Dr. Ashley Goodwin Lowe. The ShapeID business, website, and services are operated and provided by ShapeID LLC.

Adapting, modeling, extracting, creating derivatives of, teaching, or presenting ShapeID™ or its concepts is strictly prohibited without the prior written permission of ShapeID LLC.
