Reading the Test:
This test determines the expressiveness of each of the four personality type dimensions i.e.
The scales of these four dimensions represent a continuity between two opposite poles [from 100 at one pole to 100 at another pole]. Example - Sensing-Intuition dimension is a continuum from 100 on Sensing (i.e. respondent is a 100% sensing) to 100 on Intuition (i.e. respondent is a 100% intuitive).
Sensing [100% ------------------- 0% -----------------100%] Intutive
People may reveal features of both poles but they typically have a preference of one way over the other. The scale indicates the preference and the percentage indicates the extent of it. The Sensing-Intuitive score of 0% means the respondent is at the borderline between being a sensing and an intuitive. Having a score of greater than 0% - e.g. 20% - means being 20% more tipped towards Sensing than over Intuition and vice versa. The same pertains to the Extraversion vs. Introversion, Thinking vs. Feeling, and Judging vs. Perceiving dichotomies.
So the given score reading will be as follows -
