The Icelandic horse should have a superbly lively temperament, be very keen to go forward, and push itself to perform.  The horse should try to please the rider, be sensitive, gay and bright, reliable and courageous.

What are considered faults are mainly
-Laziness, the horse answers encouragement to go forward badly.
-Dull temperament.
-Kicking.
-Bucking.
-Refusing to work, or obeying badly.
-Much nervousness or extreme sensitivity.
-Lack of courage.
-Cold character.
-Insolence.

Because how difficult it is to judge temperament and goeyness in the short time an evaluation takes place, and without riding the horse, the scale by which this character is judged is only between 6.5 and 8.5.
