Iridia Medical is thrilled to announce a transformative partnership with AQR International, bringing the innovative MTQPlus (Mental Toughness Questionnaire) to North America. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our mission to enhance organizational health and individual wellbeing. By becoming the prime partner for North American distribution of MTQPlus, Iridia Medical is poised to create a profound impact on mental resilience, wellbeing as well as performance, and agility across all sectors.
Understanding MTQPlus and the 4Cs Mental Toughness Model
MTQPlus is a psychometric tool designed to measure and develop mental toughness. Rooted in the 4Cs model—Control, Commitment, Challenge, and Confidence – MTQPlus provides a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s mental toughness. Each of these components plays a crucial role in determining how well an individual copes with stress, pressure, and challenges:
Control: The extent to which a person feels they are in control of their life and emotions.
Commitment: The mindset to set goals and consistently achieve them.
Challenge: Viewing challenges as opportunities rather than threats.
Confidence: The self-belief in one’s abilities and interpersonal skills.
