Applies across the UK
"Inferred from profile" is the more cautious of the two tags on a key finding. It means the finding was put together from how your answers line up across different dimensions, rather than from something you wrote or said directly. It is a suggestion worth checking against what you know, not a report of something you told us.

What follows is examples of how this pattern could show up on an ordinary day, not things we know happened.

What follows should be your own words, or a close version of them, taken from what you wrote while filling in the profiler. Read the full definition of What you told us ".
