16 Personalities Test

The name of the career/ business assessment that I took from the Module is the Carolyn Kalil's Free Personality Quiz. The website that provided the quiz was http://www.innerheroes.com/quiz.asp. This website provided the quiz free of charge. The purpose of the Carolyn assessment is to evaluate an individual’s primary personality. After doing so, the information can be used to better understand an employee in the workplace. The test identifies thinkers, helpers, planners, and doers. Each one of these personalities can help build and support a business in a different aspect as long as the skill sets are implemented correctly.

The purpose of this assignment is to have you explore dimensional facets of, the composite hypothetical construct, “personality.” You will do this by studying, self-administering, and then interpreting and reporting on the results of, several “personality tests.”

The first assessment we took on Euruka.org was a personality assessment called the True Colors. In this test, personalities are identified as four colors: gold, green, blue and orange. My result was green. As a green I am an independent, collected and reserve individual who “values knowledge, insight and justice.” Just like a green person, I do value my education, I was always one to prioritize my homework and studying hours over social activities and leisure. I tend to be quiet and don’t open up to people right away, sometimes not even at all. It takes time for me to feel comfortable with someone before I can speak out and make jokes. Some of the occupations I was recommended, as a green, were a variety of fields from an Architecture to a

The 16 Personalities test is the most accurate for me. According to 16 Personalities “Mediators will focus their attention on just a few people.” I think that the 16 Personalities test is more accurate because it describes me better. I only pay attention to my friends, Joey and Kylee. Also, if my attention is not on my friends then I am not doing anything. According to 16 Personalities “The true friends of people with the Mediator personality type tend to be few and far between but those that make the cut are often friends for life.” This is true because me and Kylee have been friends for almost 6 years. We are still best friends. Me and Joey have been friends for a long time and never want to not be best friends. Two very accurate facts the

The purpose of the Five Factor Personality Test is to reveal what my personality is like through the feedback at the end, given in 5 small paragraphs, breaking down what each factor means. This also reveals how my interaction with people is like and how I am emotionally and mentally. The test will give me an idea how I am actually like and comparing my scores with other people to see how different everyone is to each other.

After taking the Big Five Personality Assessment, I was able to decode certain aspects of my personality and analyze whether different strengths and weaknesses. One strength I found was me openness to experience. Being open to others and their ideas has broadened my horizons. I have found that I have so much to learn from others. Whether their ideas are positive or negative, they provide feedback which overall has increased my communication skills. This is a recent strength for me. With prior companies, change was delivered as bad news, we were not taught to work with our peers but rather compete. With my new company I am experiencing the opposite side of the spectrum. I am encouraged to communicate with anyone needed, regardless of

The tests related with personality intrigue people because human personality is a very curious topic for people. Everyone wants to know about their personality and the internet has become the easiest method to access any personality test that claims to solve your queries about your own. People take interest into these tests and end up being fooled by some vague claims made by a machine that has all remarks and conclusions fitted in it. I was no exception to it when I decided to take a personality test and get included in the list of those people who got duped by such tests.

The personality assessment inventory tests provide results on my individual personality, values, motivation, decision making, communication, team skills, conflict skills, organizational structure preference, and stress. These results are broken down briefly in three parts and do not include any personal speculation or analysis as to their meaning. The application of these results are further applied and explains how the results noted from the tests and in the first step will make me a better employee, co-worker, and manager within my organization. These tests mentioned above are applied in conjunction with particular examples on how I can achieve becoming a better employee, co-worker, and manager. An explanation of how my personality and experiences were affected by the Holy Spirit is also discussed. Particularly, how potential weaknesses have become strengths with the guidance of the Lord.

The Big Five personality test was created in the 1970 's by two independent research teams. One team with Paul Costa and Robert McCrae, and the other with Warren and Lewis Goldberg. The two teams had different methods that they tested but in the end they both ended up with the same results. The results were that no matter what culture, race, or language people have their personality fits into five dimensions of personality. The five dimensions were created after reviewing lots of surveys and data analysis called factor analysis. Now, just forty years later the Big Five is one of the most commonly accepted personality models.

Have you ever been taking a stroll around town and noticed building with copious amounts of pamphlets and signs offering free “personality tests” that will lead to "the road to happiness”? Either you were at your local psychologist’s office or have located your nearest Church of Scientology. Never heard of it? Do you live under a rock? Scientology is the religion of choice of stars like John Travolta, Tom Cruise, and Kirstie Alley. It also happens to be one of the most secretive and controversial churches in the world (not to mention the most expensive). So get out your wallet and dive into the closed-membership world of Dianetics, L. Ron Hubbard, and personality tests as we explore Scientology.

For my strengths and middle school personality, strategies that would be focused upon would be rooted in group work and discussion. The groups would be decided by the instructor in order to increase productivity. Having groups with both boys and girls might help young adolescents develop productive communication skills that will aid students that feel “awkward” when talking to the other sex. Interpersonal intelligence thrives in a group environment that has a lot of discussions. Turn and shares would be a great activity for interpersonal students in all content areas. For the musical/rhythmic students, relating assessments to musical theory or the combination of content and compositions would excite these students. Combining rhythms in a classroom

For psychologists, one of the more popular theories espoused is the trait approach to personality, or “the idea that people have consistent personality characteristics that can be measured and studied” (Kalat, 2002, 512). However there are several problems that arise. First, there are significant cross-cultural differences, so one set of personality traits for one culture may differ considerably for another. The next problem would concern the creation of a test that could accurately measure these traits. While psychologists have for the most part addressed these issues, I will focus on the latter of the two. There has been a

Reports should be succinct as possible. This way the reader can gain the information needed to make a decision or ask the right questions to make a decision without getting bogged down and bored, possibly not reading the entire report.

For this reflection paper, I was asked to take a personality test and how these traits are useful when working together with colleagues and clients on an intervention plan during a team meeting. Over the years, I have taken different types of personality tests in my teaching career from a color personality test to what type of teaching style I prefer to use in a classroom learning environment. As a result, I understand the importance of how personality traits identify one’s strengths and challenges for growth in daily interaction with people and the world. The personality type results for me were for the most part accurate in that they classified me as an introvert, intuitive, feeling, and perceiving kind. This personality is known as the “The Mediator” and their strengths in the work place are that they “work hard to ensure that every voice and perspective is heard” (“Mediator strengths and weaknesses, n.d.). However, the personality challenges for this type are a “dislike for dealing with data and taken things personally” (Mediator strengths and weakneses, n.d.). My personality strengths of supporting equity and contribution in a team meeting would effectively focus on a client centered practice and a
