Personality Test

Posted Previously on Wordpress.com

So, part of my psychology homework was to do some personality tests and say if they are correct and how I felt about them.

This is the five factors personality test and this is my results : ( my thoughts are on the ends of each reason)

Factor I : Extraversion (AKA Surgency)

This trait reflects preference for, and behavior in, social situations. People high in extraversion are energetic and seek the company of others. Low scorers (introverts) tend to be more quiet and reserved. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (36) is relatively high.

I am rarely energetic and have a tough time finding the “energy ” to get things done but seem to muster them up anyhow.
II am not quiet or reserved so the high score did work for me.

Factor II : Agreeableness (AKA Friendliness)… See more

This trait reflects how we tend to interact with others. People high in agreeableness tend to be trusting, friendly and cooperative. Low scorers tend to be more aggressive and less cooperative. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (34) is relatively high.

I got the high score here which says i tend to be trusting, friendly and cooperative. I am very trusting of people and I think sometimes this gets me in trouble. I tend to try not to trust people as much as I used to though. I am a friendly person – I don’t try to cause harm on others, etc. I am somewhat cooperative I am known to be very argumentative and will tell you exactly how i feel.

Factor III : Conscientiousness (AKA Will or Dependability)

This trait reflects how organized and persistent we are in pursuing our goals. High scorers are methodical, well organized and dutiful. Low scorers are less careful, less focussed and more likely to be distracted from tasks. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (48) is relatively high.

I received a high score here which tells me that i am methodical, well organized and dutiful and I would just like to say I don’t , personally, see me as ANY of those. I can be quite cluttered and unorganized at times. .. and methodical is not a term I would ever see myself using to describe me.

Factor IV : Neuroticism (AKA Emotional Stability)

This trait reflects the tendency to experience negative thoughts and feelings. High scorers are prone to insecurity and emotional distress. Low scorers tend to be more relaxed, less emotional and less prone to distress. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (21) is about average.

I am an average person it says- I don’t know if this is GOOD or BAD (lol) but I don’t have a tendency to have negative thoughts. I am a very glass is half empty person at times but aren’t we all. WE all deal with stress and troubles in our lives and I guess this test would be dependant upon what we are dealing with at that certain time in our lives. I am a very emotional person, i will give them that.

Factor V : Openness (AKA Culture or Intellect)

This trait reflects ‘open-mindedness’ and interest in culture. High scorers tend to be imaginative, creative, and to seek out cultural and educational experiences. Low scorers are more down-to-earth, less interested in art and more practical in nature. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (27) is about average.

It states that I am about average on this … I am a very imaginative person, I can be very creative, i love culture and educational experiences, i am a also down to earth person who is interested in art and nature both though.
