Middle School Personality Analysis

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 world would be a lot better of a place if everyone got along and knew how to communicate effectively with one another. There are several different personalities at any given workplace. “According to typological theory, each of us is born with a predisposition for certain personality preferences” (Kroeger pg11 para4). The Myers-Briggs Personality assessment is the most effective way to determine one’s personality type. The test uses different markers to determine how one is stimulated and exerts energy, gather information, make decisions, and living structure. At the completion of the test one will get personality type that is comprised of four letters. The test was developed based off of Carl Jung and Isabel Briggs-Myers’ psychological research on personalities and later dissected into Otto Kroeger’s book, “Type Talk at Work.” This book gives one the tools to determine what one’s personality is and then goes into great detail about one’s strengths and weaknesses and how it applies to to real life situations. My personality description is ENFP; Extravert, iNtuitive, Feeling, and Perceiving. The following are details regarding and ENFP personality type examining a holistic view including personal and work place interactions. Everything is based on insights gained from real world experiences and interactions.

As I reviewed my MBTI results, most of my percentages have not drastically changed over time. This gives me continued confidence in the following MBTI results which indicate I am an ?ISTJ?: introvert (16%), sensing (9%), thinking (31%) and judging (53%) (Jung Typology Test, 1998-2017).

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.

I found the test results of the Big Five personality assessment to be an interesting and very accurate description of myself. After completing this assessment, I was able to analyze my personality in depth. I found this information to be helpful knowledge and provide insight about myself, as well as being crucial in examining my personality traits. The big five is also referred to the OCEAN model of personality, and stands for the main traits used to describe personalities. This acronym stands for openness to experience/intellect, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. After taking the test I was then given percentile scores that allowed me to compare myself with other people who have taken the test online as well, therefore making it a more meaningful comparison.

This experiment focuses on the average personality traits of Texas A&M students, which we evaluate using descriptive statistics. We can use descriptive statistics to subscribe, show, or summarize data from a population in meaningful ways. By calculating multiple factors taken from the population, we can find the central tendency and variability. These two values gives us the most important information. The central tendency gives us the most typical or most representative score. These central tendency values are mean, median, and mode. Variability gives us the extent to which the scores in a group differ from each other. These include the range, average deviation, variance, and standard deviation. In this report, by examining the

Nothing feels better than giving back to a place that has given so much to people. A majority of the little things that we do day by day are taken for granted or they are just seen as nothing major. In reality there are so many things that are given to us and we do not always see the little things in life as anything of mass importance. For our kindness project we decided that it was time for us to give a little to ensure someone had a smile at the end of the day. We partnered up with the Rho Nu club here on campus and together we made tie blankets. These blankets that we made will be donated to the Sacred Heart hospital in Spokane later this month. We decided to do this project in the hopes of giving a little, but making it count for a lot more. We hoped that the children receiving these blankets always get a smile on their face or simply that they just find comfort in these blankets. In this project I was the leader of the group and I did most of the organization of

a. According self tests using the Five Factor Model, my personality has low extraversion and emotional stability, a high degree of openness, and moderate levels of agreeableness and conscientiousness. Low extraversion is demonstrated in both professional and social envionments. While working a corporate job as a financial analyst, taking the time and initiative to interact with coworkers beyond the scope of the job was limited to a brief conversation once a day with the same two people. In large social gatherings, interactions are limited to familiar people with whom I have pre-existing friendships. If I attend a concert by myself, I will bring a book to read in between musical acts to prevent people from speaking to me. Low emotional

The Big Five Personality test had helped me gain a lot of knowledge about not only myself but also what type of information researchers collects about us in order to develop a reasonable idea of what type of personality we have. I learned that the Big Five Personality test is made using a large amount of things from how our personality changes over time and also how it relates to other variables such as self esteem and music preferences. From the findings of the Big Five Personality Test these researches have also been able to find patterns in our personalities. One of these being that personality is not finished being crafted at the age of 30, but instead it continues to change. Although there feedback is based mostly on generalization it still came to give me and almost accurate description about myself.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss characteristics of my personality. The main focus of this paper will be how my personality has developed over time. As I age and encounter new and different experiences, my personality has adapted and developed further. This paper will give an in-depth exploration into the people and events that have influenced my personality.

When I was a little girl, my parents were foster parents because they wanted to adopt another child. Throughout my childhood, there were many children who would come stay with us for a few days, sometimes a few weeks or sometimes a few months. When I was 9 years old, my older sister, Miranda, and I came home from school and noticed a little tricycle in our front yard. We ran inside to meet this cute 17 months-old little boy named Jordan. Jordan’s biological mother was a substance abuser and she continued to abuse while she was pregnant with him. We suspect that this resulted in some of the learning and behavioral problems that he deals with daily. Jordan is now 15 years old. As he has gotten older, we have noticed how his personality differs from the rest of our family’s. I will be defining his personality by applying Eysenck’s Biological Theory, Temperament, and Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory.

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.

In the heart of my final year as a student, the activities that I initiated earlier in my undergraduate career are still of my priorities. The academic activities in which I have been involved since my sophomore year of college have required perseverance, assiduousness, and constant responsibility. For example, the main career-related activity that I still participate in is undergraduate research. Over the course of my junior and senior year, I have been conducting research with the Youth Personality and Behavior laboratory (YPB) at the University of Southern Mississippi, and my experience with research has positively impacted my ability to make great strides in my current endeavors. Research continues to be one of my academic aspirations, and I am fortunate to have been able to conduct my own study through my university’s senior honors college. As a senior honors student, I am examining youth personality and self-esteem and their relation to interpersonal relationships and mental health outcomes. Specifically, I am studying self-esteem (e.g., narcissism) and its association with perceptions of the quality of adolescent friendships. My interest in children and adolescents’ emotional, social, and behavior difficulties pushes me to expand the understanding of the assessment and dynamics problems relating to youth personality.
