The IDRlabs Nonbinary Identity Spectrum Test (IDR-NIST) was developed by IDRlabs. The IDR-NIST is inspired by observations and research on gender identity, including studies on gender dysphoria, self-expression, and societal perceptions of gender. The IDR-NIST is not associated with any specific researchers in the field of gender studies or any affiliated research institutions.
The test provides feedback such as the following:
Gender Fluidity: Individuals with nonbinary traits often experience a sense of gender that shifts or exists outside rigid male/female categories, embracing a fluid or multifaceted identity.
Discomfort with Binary Norms: People with nonbinary tendencies may feel unease or disconnection from societal expectations tied to traditional gender roles, preferring alternatives that align with their sense of self.
Expressive Flexibility: Nonbinary individuals frequently embrace diverse forms of self-expression, such as clothing or pronouns, that defy conventional gender norms and reflect their unique identity.
Internal Gender Reflection: Those with nonbinary traits often engage in deep introspection about their gender, questioning binary labels and exploring a personal sense of identity beyond societal norms.
Social Nonconformity: Nonbinary individuals may challenge or reject gendered social conventions, advocating for recognition of their identity in personal and public spaces.
Pronoun Preference: People with nonbinary tendencies often prefer pronouns that align with their identity, such as they/them, or experiment with pronouns to reflect their authentic self.
Dysphoria Variability: Nonbinary traits may include varying levels of discomfort with physical or social gender markers, driving a desire to align their presentation or body with their internal identity.
