I am not surprised I scored the lowest in Extroversion. I would describe myself as an introvert. Openness to Experience was my highest and that makes sense. Based on my work experiences, I tend to do well with new projects, even when they’re thrown at me last minute with little direction, and I don’t like doing the same type of projects long term. I would not describe myself as a risk-taker, though. I’d say I’m very cautious, and that may explain why Agreeableness is my second highest because I don’t want to upset . Considering the results, my career direction seems to be a good fit. I’ve had two jobs significant to my career since my undergrad and both are in an office settings with high volumes of challenging work. I also work directly
Considering my personality, based on the “Big 5” personality traits, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness to experience, I scored on the high end of the moderate range. As for the openness to experience, I scored a 9 out of 10 ranging in the high level of personality factor (Project 2, BMAL-500 D, McGraw Hill Connect, Liberty University, 2017). I feel as if though this is accurate as I am generally outgoing and enjoy the company of others.
The 1st Factor is Extraversion (AKA Surgency) and the score I received for this factor is 31 which is above average. With the score I got, it says that I am peppy and that I need or want to talk and hang out with people. Although part of the report is true about being peppy, I do not see myself as always needing others around because most of the time, I like being by myself. I do not agree with the score I got because I actually do not like people that well. I am a rude person that judges people easily. For example, if I were to meet someone new in a class, the first thing I will do is recognize a feature that is very noticeable and I will not say anything about it. Also, if mistakes were made constantly, it would be really obvious and it would bother me a lot even though I would not say anything about it out loud. But I will say what I think is wrong or bad about the person to someone else, even though I know that sounds really messed up and it is.
Found a few mentors who have given you a better idea about the jobs you might like to do in the future
As I researched the time period Sontag wrote A Woman’s Beauty: Put-down or Power Source I found out the essay was published in April 1975 for no less than Vogue Magazine, which now days is the most important magazine about fashion and beauty. How ironic!! Around the time period of 1970 and 1975, in the United States women started to be more noticeable in things only men were known to do. In 1970, the first female jockey in Kentucky Derby. In 1974, the first black model was featured in Vogue Magazine, girls were allowed to play in little league baseball, the first women priest in the Episcopal Church and also January 1st of 1975 international women years begins. I noticed
It seems that employers are afraid that they will not be able to effectively monitor employees output and have major security concerns when allowing employees to telework. The initial costs of setting up telework to employees may also be a concern for employers.
The first subset of my personality is Extraversion, as opposed to Introversion. As an extrovert, I would describe myself as social, external and gregarious. This characteristic helps me communicate and reach out to others. However, there are cons that go along
My first of my five traits for emotional stability (ES) and I scored in the thirtieth percentile, but since the big five is based off of neuroticism (N) which is the opposite of emotional stability, I scored seventy percent higher than four hundred and fifty-nine female Luther College students. With this quality I typically experience fear, sadness, embarrassment, anger, guilt, and disgust. Assisting these qualities, I do not cope as well with stress than other and cannot control my impulses. Learning my score for N made me realize that I really do not handle stress as well as others. Typically, when I am stressed out I shut out everyone and online shop to relieve my high stress levels. My friends can tell right away when I am stressed out because I will ignore them for a while. This was one of the biggest problems my ex and I had in our long distance relationship is because I did not cope well with all of the stress of fall semester being in the nursing program. I would be embarrassed because I did not do as well as I wanted to on a few of our nursing quizzes which made me feel disgusted in myself and I would shut him out for several days and would deny that anything was wrong. The second of the five traits is extraversion (E), I scored seventieth percentile. My family would always tell me I would be a great nurse because I am extremely outgoing. When I am studying for a big test after two hours of being alone in my room I hit the wall and cannot focus anymore
After taking the Big Five personality test, also known as the OCEAN model of personality, I found the results slightly surprising to me. The first measure they addressed was openness to experience/intellect, and I scored fairly low at the 20th percentile, meaning I prefer more traditional experiences and familiar experiences. The second one, which was conscientiousness, I scored higher on in the 74th percentile, meaning that I am well organized, self-disciplined, and reliable. The third measure of personality is extraversion, and I scored in the 96th percentile which extremely high. This suggests that I am extremely outgoing, social, and
For the trait questionnaire, I was very surprised at the findings. One trait that surprised me the most was the determination trait. I personally believe that I am a determined individual because if I have an idea, I stand by it 100%. My colleagues and my family however, thought differently and rated me neutrally for the most part. Other than that trait, I can see why the people I asked to rate me did so that way. For the skills questionnaire, I was surprised that I have more technical skills than human skills. The reason why I was surprised is because on a day to day basis, I interact with different
According to my IPIP-NEO narrative report I am a very independent, outgoing, calm, and curious person. My comprehensive report shows that I am: high scoring in openness, conscientiousness, and extraversion, average scoring in agreeableness and low scoring in Neuroticism. Raking in the 82nd percentile, extraversion was my second highest scoring trait. This means I am pretty outgoing, extraverted and love people. This is evident my scores of 89 in friendliness, 84 in assertiveness and 75 in activity level. Despite my high score in extraversion, I am on the lower side of average in the excitement-seeking facet with a score or 33. This means that even though I might like a little hustle and bustle and take charge I wont take to many risks and don’t always need a thrill to be satisfied.
Moderate preference of extraversion over introversion (25%) was one of my results that really shocked me. An extravert is described as, “They are talkers, often thinking out loud, interrupting people at meetings, or bursting into a co-worker’s office to ask an opinion, and then not really listening to it.” I would not think that describes me. When I ask someone’s opinion I really do take to heart what they tell me. For example, my father gives me advice all the time. My siblings get annoyed with his advice and brush it off. In any situations or problems that I face I try to apply my father’s advice.
People high in agreeableness tend to be trusting, friendly and cooperative. (27) Is about average. Factor III conscientiousness, this trait reflects how organized and persistent we are in pursuing our goals. High scorers are methodical, well organized and dutiful. (45) Is relatively high. Factor IV neuroticism, 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. (14) Is relatively low. Factor V openness, this trait reflects 'open-mindedness' and interest in culture. Low scorers are more down-to-earth, less interested in art and more practical in nature. (16) Is relatively low.
Also, extroverted people tend to act impulsively without thinking of consequences. An introverted person will think about his or her actions before committing to them (Extroversion). After taking the Myers-Briggs test, I discovered that I had an extroverted personality (Flynn). This is very prevalent in my job, as well as school. While I benefit from some time to myself, I enjoy working with groups of people. If I must choose between conducting a project on my own or with a group, I will usually pick the group. I also have a job that requires working with large groups of children. While some individuals may find such a large group overwhelming, I find it easy and comfortable. Another indicator of my extroverted personality is my tendency to act on impulse. Many times, I will enroll in classes before I take the time to see if I need them or will do well in them. I also make choices without considering consequences. Last semester, I chose to skip class to attend other events. While friends thought it made me a fun, flexible person, I ended up failing my class due to absences. Being introverted and extroverted both have their positive and negative qualities, but I typically benefit from my outgoing personality.
They describe most traits one would have. Although they are broad and can be construed in different ways. The report from the personality test described me fairly accurately. Although some people might think that they have a certain personality and may answer the questions inaccurately. What would happen if the questions were answered by someone who knows the subject very well? Would it be a different result? I believe that most people would fit into one of the big five personality dimensions, which are extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism and openness to experience. I also believe that people can have the traits of all five or a number of them at one time. I do believe that a person can perceive themselves in a different way then the results show. Looking at the results, helped me to see some things that I may need to work on to be a better person.
Rhetorical devices are the techniques and tools of language applied in a writing or speech so as convey meaning (Harris, 28). Brilliant use of rhetorical devices nourishes, enriches and brings clarity to a text. Literary writers use literary tools to distinguish a literary work from the non-literary one as well as creating an effective literary work. According to Harris, rhetorical devices are not only used in literary texts, but they are also used in speech, so as to improve the effectiveness of the speech to the listeners as well as making it more appealing (Harris, 39). Rev. Martin Luther King who lived between 1929 and 1968 was one of the core leaders of the A.M.C.R.M (American Civil Rights Movement) and he was famous for his non-violence protests advocates, in America. The speech "I have a Dream" is one of his historical watersheds that he delivered in a remarkable day, March 28th August 1963 while at the Memorial of Lincoln Washington DC. In order to make his speech majestic and make it memorable, Rev. Martin Luther used various rhetorical flourishes such as repititionto engage his audience.
