First Step of Psychological Testing: Familiarisation

In the ESA Astronaut Selection, the first step of psychological testing is primarily computer-based. Here, you can download sample files similar to those faced by the selected applicants.

The files are compressed in a ZIP format. After downloading, you will need to extract the files. Viewing requires Adobe Flash Player on your computer, which is free to download and platform-independent. You can obtain the software here: www.adobe.com or the latest version directly at: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/ Then you should double-click each file with the extension '.html' to start the sample test. When the Adobe Flash Player Security window pops up, click ‘OK’. Then you will be able to click ‘START’ or ‘FORWARD’ in the internet browser software and browse through the sample test files to test yourself against what the selected candidates may encounter in their first step of psychological testing.
