Having many values in my life, the assessment found three that stood out to me. Favorably, I am accustomed to helping others. If I see someone struggling with tasks or comprehension, I always try to help them understand. I can remember when I was a toddler how creative I was. I would often fill my days with telling my family stories and making up songs that my imagination couldn’t hold on to. Being 21 now, creativity has still been a major key factor in success. Thinking of ways to improve computer programs at work is part of the creativity. Being stable is the most important to me. Being without a job, a car, and money, are all key factors that could possibly hold me back from not having a successful career.

This paper will discuss two personality tests, the Five Factor Model and the Jungian Model. It will also discuss the results I got from the Five Factor Model and the Jungian Model personality tests. I will then do an analysis of my results and a write a summary of two articles.

The Strong Interest Inventory, or SII, is an interest inventory used in career assessment to give insight into a person's interests, so that they may have less difficulty in deciding on an appropriate career choice for themselves (Prince, 1998). The inventory is used in career development for high school and college students to measure interest. The current inventory corresponds with Holland’s codes from the theory of types. The codes consist of RIASEC and each letter is a type that corresponds with the type of personality that may be suited for a type of career (Sharf, 2010). The writer completed the Strong Interest

Throughout the semester and the various self-assessments that I have completed, I managed to learn a few things about myself that I never really put much thought into. By looking at the various models and scales, such as the five-factor model for better understanding and essentially breaking down key parts of someone’s personality, the MBTI personality test, the locus of control assessment, and the various learning and career-based assessments, I am better able to understand myself and how I need to move forward in pursuing the smart goals I make.

When I took was the personal values tests I recived “INTJ”. “I” stands for “Introvert” which is not a bad thing because it can help me in the real estate business because I can concentrate for a long period. This is needed because searching for a house for the client can be quite a big task most of the time. Also introverts tend to be more effective in more independent and self guided situations. The next letter was “N” which stands for “Intuitive”. Being intuitive means I try to understand the meaning of things, rather than just the specifics which could help be in the “being humble” aspect because knowing the underlying structure can bring me confidence instead of being disoriented. The third letter was “T” which stands for “Thinker”. Being a thinker means being rational, logical, and analytical which are key traits in the real estate business. Lastly, the the last letter was “J” which stands for “Judger”. Being a judger can fall under the “real estate” side and “being humble” side because “Judgers” tend to be in control, sensible, and decisive. “Judgers” often find themselves in managerial positions and work well in the structures of large companies and government

Introduction: Personality is something every living, and mentally functioning human member of society has. Our personalities are made up of our behaviours and the way in which we think, feel and act – no two people are exactly alike in personality. (Fletcher and Garton, 2015). Personality plays a major role in psychology as it is constantly being talked about in terms of developing it, measuring it and how it can influence the way we interact with others. Theorists have identified different traits and characteristics as a way to categorise different personality types.

Understanding personality is also the key to unlocking elusive human qualities, for example leadership, motivation, and empathy, whether your purpose is self-development, helping others, or any other field relating to people and how we behave.

The purpose of self-assessment tests is to help us to gain a better understanding of ourselves and the idiosyncrasies

The personality self-assessment contained three different assessments that assess different components of your personality, such as your personality profile, what motivates you, and acquired needs. It is important to think about this information because knowing what your personality profile is, what motivates you, and what your acquired needs are will help me as I prepare for the workplace. Knowing this information will help me, as personality type contributes to how you communicate with others in the workplace, as well as how I will deal with conflict.

The entire notion of 'Personality ' rests upon a number of assumptions: 1) that traits and types exist 2) that traits and types are stable over time 3) that these traits and types are consistent across different situations. At least two of these assumptions are so problematic that they challenge the very existence of Personality. Critically evaluate this statement.

People in general tend to ask questions about personality. ’What am I like? What is my friend really like?’ It is common to judge people because of their ’lack of personality’, when we think about someone who is boring or having a ’good personality’ refering to a person who is interesting. In personality psychology there is no evaluation in terms of idea of goodness of somebody’s personality, but there is an aim to define it in a scientific and objective way (Pervin & Cervone, 2010). There are many definitions of personality, but generally we can describe it as a collection of characteristics or traits that have an influence on our thoughts and behaviour, and can lead us to success or failure in some situations (Pervin & Cervone, 2010).

The importance of putting the right person in the right position can prove a daunting task. Every person is unique with a different mental and physical makeup. This make up shapes a person’s beliefs and attitudes. Putting a personality that is square in a round hole can be met with disaster. There are a number of methods to help understand a person’s personality. Myers-Briggs is a personality type indicator (MBTI). It represents a method where a person answers a set of unique questions to help establish their personality traits. Understanding these traits can provide insight into how a person processes information and interacts with others. Understanding one’s personality, in conjunction with other

A theory can be defined as a set of ideas that helps us to understand, explain, predict, and control situations. A person’s personality is often known as what makes them who they are. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a persons’ personality as, “the set of emotional qualities, ways of behaving, etc., that makes a person different from other people.” Now, putting those two concepts together, this paper will discuss personality theory. There are six major ideas that make up the basics of personality theory. The six major ideas that make up the basics of personality theory are, nature versus nurture, the unconscious, view of self, development, motivation, and maturation. These six ideas can also be categorized into two

The Myers-Briggs personality types are sixteen in number. Each type covers a very general area of temperament in a human being and it allows people to do their best and try to understand the motives and behaviors of that specific person (Truity.com). This particular approach to personality types is a way to take a deeper look into the behavioral and moral makeup of the person as it allows intricate study of emotion and motives that are driven by those emotions. It is quite entertaining to research facts about a type that pertain to one’s self as they quickly find out the shocking accuracy it poses (Cook, 205).
