Introduction. Descriptive Statistics Organize And Describe

The personality trait from the mini IPIP6 –scale descriptions analysed in this report is Extraversion. With a mean score of 5.5 compared to the mean score of sample 4.05, standard deviation of 1.17 and z score of 1.24, over all I scored above average compared to the mean total score of participants. By incorporating previous research on Extroversion and the mini –IPIP6 scale, an observation can be made that my score was above average due to my lack in introvert behaviours. These scales are self-reported data (S- Data), which can decrease the validity as self- report data can only measure what the individual is willing to express.

These methods include descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis. There are two measures of descriptive statistics; they are central tendency and measures of variability or dispersion. Descriptive statistics helps to summarize data gathered throughout the research. In addition, it happens to be one of the easiest forms of statistics to interpret and it is more meaningful. It also provides the chance for a pattern to emerge since it is easy to show and summarize. Furthermore, it manages to simplify a significant amount of data in a practical fashion. Statistics gathered by this method would generate valuable information on all the measured

Neuroticism, agreeableness, extraversion, openness, and conscientiousness are the five personality traits that make up the big five traits. Everyone in the world has theses traits in their personality but have a variation in how strong they are in them. After learning in greater detail about the two ends of the spectrums people can be at or in between we took the BFI to find out where we are on the bell curve for the big five traits. Then we compared our scores with four hundred and fifty-nine other female Luther students to determine our percentiles in the BFI traits. In emotional stability (ES), I ranked in the thirtieth percentile. Since the big five uses neuroticism (N) which is the opposite of emotional stability I scored in the seventieth percentile for N. One with this personality usually experiences lots of negative effects, and is more prone to having irrational ideas, less able to cope well to stress, and control their impulses. Second in the big five traits is agreeableness (A), my percentile for this is in the fifth percentile. People in the middle of the bell curve do not lean one way or another but use a combination of the two spectrums. A person high in A is sympathetic to others and eager to lend them a helping hand. Compared to someone on the opposite side of the bell curve who is egocentric, skeptical of others intentions, and competitive rather than cooperative. Additionally, one low in A are usually science minded and will follow the data shown.

The authors of this article were presenting the results of their investigation into the relationship between grade point average (GPA) and the Big Five personality traits of agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability extraversion and openness. The subject of this investigation was 434 second semester freshman students enrolled in an introductory psychology course.

The mean values for the Big Five traits were respectively close, such as 26.41 and 34.99; this suggested the reliability were adequate and consistent throughout all three samples. For the two-month re-test study results, showed reliability and scores were similar in the two independent subsamples. The convergent validity coefficients were substantial and significant and exceeded the discriminant validity. This suggests that an adequate convergent and discriminant validity of the Big Five. When participant’s age and gender were held constant, the Big Five were associated with school performances. Therefore, supported the hypothesis of the high students and suggested predictive validity. Overall, the results support the reliability and validity of the Big Five and can be useful in assessing personality traits in adults and adolescents

The Big Five Inventory (BFI) assessment is a self-report, 44-item inventory that aims to measure five personality factors in order to learn about an individual’s personality. The five factors being measured are, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness. This test uses the S-data approach, as well as the qualitative and quantitative methods. As the results from the Spanish and English BFI assessment are compared, the reliability, validity, and generalizability are analyzed in order to see how effective they are. The results provide an insight on one’s personality in each of the five categories. The findings concluded low reliability,

The study was conducted using the IPIP measure scales; (Extraversion, Neuroticism, Openness, Agreeableness & Conscientiousness), (Goldberg, 1999) and the Big Five Factor Model which measure the personality factors of the Big Five (Costa & McCrae, 1992). The four goals of Psychology was taken into consideration using the 25-item translated questionnaire with a 5 point Likert scale.

Many personality psychologists believe that there are five basic dimensions of personality often referred to as the “Big 5” personality. One of the personality traits is agreeableness and is used to describe the degree to which a person is kind, how dependable he/she is and can also describe how cooperative he/she is in certain situations. A person that has high levels of agreeableness has qualities such as trust, altruism, kindness, affection and other prosocial behaviours. The level of agreeableness in an individual can be beneficial to employers because it can be used to predict future behaviour, job performance and interactions with existing employees. The use of personality testing can be used to figure out levels of agreeableness in

Also its ‘centre’ can often be meaningfully represented by the Median and the variation can sometimes be measured by the Range or the Inter Quartile Range.

Descriptive statistics describes data by organizing factors of a sample such as culture, gender, age, or location and is shown with charts or graphs. Descriptive statistics can interpret larger portions of data and reduce larger portions of data. The measure of central tendency describes the average score being the mean, the median being the midpoint of a spread of scores, and the mode the most frequent. There are certain levels of measurement and descriptive statistics may not be the best technique based on the measurement, these scales include nominal, ordinal, interval, and

One of the Big 5 personality traits is agreeableness. According to Lewis R. Goldberg (1993), agreeableness is a social trait and also a reflection of different individuals in concerning social harmony. Individuals who have higher level of agreeableness tend to get along with others more and easier involve themselves socially. The personality characteristics include helpful, considerate, kind, trustworthy, sympathetic, soft-hearted, good-natured, generous, lenient and willing to compromise their interest with others. Agreeable people view human nature in an optimistic way. Thus, they attract more friends and enjoy social support from others. However, individuals who have lower level of agreeableness are most likely to be

There have always been crimes, from a treachery to an assassination. Happens in every country you can think of, and every government has to deal with it. It is really stressful to try to understand the nature of the crimes: why are they done and where could they happen next. Out of this preoccupation is that we found studies gathering data from communities; we focused on one specific crime: murders.
