Abstract: The authors have developed a personality tool to assess Trigunas , that is, Sattva , Rajas , and Tamas . The Trigunas are composed of the Pancha Mahabhutas , but one or the other guna is dominant singularly or in combination. There can never be a state when one or the other Pancha Mahabhutas , and consequently the Trigunas , is absent totally. One or the other guna is in dominance and is responsible for the behavior expressed by an individual. The present authors have tried to validate the same in psychology, taking into account the descriptions as delineated in Indian tradition and classical textual scriptures. In this process, the psychometric properties of the scale are established.
