Managing Emotions

Emotions in Action

Emotions in Action is Emotify’s third part, added in late 2021: one connected workplace narrative unfolds across 14 rounds, and in each you choose the response that best manages the emotion in play — about half the rounds concern your own emotions and half someone else’s. Criteria’s brief confirms 14 rounds at a one-minute maximum; the scenario and its options here are original.

In the real assessment

The 14-round / 60-second format, the connected narrative and the own-versus-others split are confirmed by Criteria’s InfoBrief. The number of response options and the scoring granularity are not published, so this build uses four options with a keyed best answer and partial credit for the second-best — the structure of the academic instrument Criteria validated it against.
