A few years ago as a seventeen year-old, confused in his emotional feelings, I embarked on a search for absolutes. Up to that point I had mainly concerned myself with conventional psychology and classical philosophies. As you may guess these studies provided more questions than answers. It is at that moment that I stumbled upon analytical profiling. Simply put analytical profiling was not based on somebody’s idea of how the world should be or somebody’s explanation on how people should feel. Rather, profiling only concerns itself with statistics and things that can be measured. It hit me like a revolution. Things could often be explained statistically and hours of pointless discussion were no longer needed. So I embarked on my profiling journey.

I spent the next few years gathering datas and reading anything I could get my hands on. In university, I became somewhat of a celebrity by pulling stunts in social events. For instance, wearing a towel around my head, self proclaiming “Irma”, I proceeded to tell people about their past present and future (obviously people tend to listen more to the future part once that I had nailed down their past and present). Besides increasing my social standing and social life, my little tricks got me close friends very enthusiastic about profiling. I say that because it has a direct bearing on the information you are going to find on this website for the reason that, like most young online company the staff and contributors go way back.

Because of this the people working for the website share many social similarities. This means something because when you read something on the internet, knowing who writes it is often more interesting that what you actually learn. The point is that, by the social profiling of our staff, this website will (although it will fight like crazy not to) supply information through the glasses of the values of the social milieu from which our staff and contributors are from.

Having said this, let me try to describe the values of this website. Here is what we stand for or rather do not stand for:

• The Institute is based in Quebec, a french-speaking province of Canada. So the information on this site will be given through a second language.
• We all have catholic background but nobody goes to church. We have no religious agenda whatsoever.
• If I had to speculate on political tendencies I would say that the political mood at the Institute is neither to the right or to the left. Obviously there may be some difference on particular issues for each person but on the whole nobody is politically involved.
• We do not wish to change the world but merely to explain the world as it is.
• We do not promote any sort of racial superiority over another race.
• We are not affiliated either structurally or ideologically with anyone.

In parting I would like to say that if any reader would like to share information and research, the institution will gladly accept it. Understand that we will have to thoroughly check it before storing it in our database.

To all those interested in analytical profiling, everybody at the Institute hopes that you will appreciate our efforts.
