My Personality Group Through Human Metrics

The Big Five personality test is currently the most accepted personality model within the scientific community. In the 1950s, it emerged from the work of multiple different researchers who all obtained similar results when studying personality through each of their own methods. My results, which are based on the personality traits highlighted within the Big Five personality test, are as follows: my extroversion results were moderately high. This results suggests that, at times, I tend to be overly talkative, outgoing, sociable. My orderliness results showed to be moderately high as well. This suggests that I tend to be an organized, neat, and structured person throughout my daily life. My emotional stability results were low. This suggests that I tend to worry too often. According to my results, I tend to be overly insecure, emotional and anxious. My accommodation results were moderately low. This suggests that, at times, I can be overly selfish, uncooperative and difficult to work with, especially in groups.

I agree and disagree with the results that I have a INFJ personality. I agree that I am an introvert person. I don't really spend a lot of time hanging out with other people and I am normally quiet when I am amongst big groups. I just like observing from the sidelines rather than being in the thick of it. I also agree that I am mostly intuitive. I mostly act on my instincts and experiences from the past. Additionally, I agree that I a have a judging personality. I enjoy sticking to routine most of the time. I found it uncomfortable or stressful if I don’t follow a schedule or if I am late to something. Although, I can be flexible in certain circumstances. The one personality trait that I disagree about is that I have a feeling personality.

Each type has unique gifts and talents that can be used in different occupations. ISFJ personalities are practical and motivated to provide for others in the careers that they choose. The ideal work environment for this personality type is to work alone on projects, work with known facts, use standard procedures, work in a friendly and relaxed environment. Careers that are suggested for someone with the ISFJ personality are interior decorators, nurses, administrators, managers, child care professionals, counselors, paralegals, religious workers, shopkeepers and office managers. Personally, I want to work in the Biotechnology field developing cures for sick children and adults. I would love to find the cure for cancer and lyme disease. If I can make a difference in someone’s life I will then be satisfied with what I do for a living.

The Jung Career Test was a series of questions that produced a 4-letter type formula that determined the strengths that oversee my personality type. In addition, the Jung Career Test allowed me to understand communication and learning styles that would help me uncover careers and occupations that were most fit my personality type. According to the Carl Jung’s and Isabel Briggs Myers’ typology, my 4-letter type formula is ENFJ, which results in extravert (53%), intuitive (3%), feeling (19%), and judging (22%). I have a moderate preference of extraversion over introversion with marginal or no preference of intuition over sensing. In addition, I have a slight preference of feeling over thinking, with a slight preference of judging over perceiving.

From the MBTI test, I got the INFJ personality. The energy comes from me, so I can drive, lead my future employees to achieve on the strategic plan of the organization and know how to develop employees’ skills. Also, I understand, care other’ feeling and have an empathy to others. This will help to learn and help people to have a work life balance. People should have work life balance because they may less stress on their jobs and life. They will well perform on their responsibilities.

As requested, I took the Jung Typology Assessment. The results revealed my personality to be ISFJ (Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging). The first characteristic listed is the desires to serve others. An ISFJ is loyal, sometimes taken for granted, bad at delegating, but produces superior quality work. Methodical, accurate, and possess an excellent memory are more characteristics of the ISFJ personality type. They work well in a small group and make reliable coworkers; however, they tend to be awkward in a supervisory capacity. Not only is an ISFJ a great employee but they are extremely family oriented and dedicated to their intimate group of friends. If a friend or family member is in need of emotional support an ISFJ is by their side without

After taking the Jung typology test, I was astonished how the results described my disposition down to the minute details. My personality type is introvert, intuitive, feeling, and judging, INFJ for short. INFJs love people, but tend to only share their feelings with a selective few. Perceived as dreamers and doers, this unique combination of vision along with practicality enables INFJs to accomplish great humanitarian feats. Often they are deeply concerned for the people surrounding them, but when situations begin to get to emotionally tolling, this personality type tend to seclude into themselves pushing everyone away. Additionally, they often take on a disproportionate amount of responsibility. My persona matches the test results exactly.

After taking the Discerning Your Personality Shape Quiz, it concluded that I was a circle. Honestly, I was shocked how accuracy some of the information was. The main one being it that as Circle’s we smile a lot. While I might not seem like that in the classroom, outside of the school this is me. Everyone at work and most of my family members always call me smiley. “I often get remarks like don’t you ever stop smiling?” Or “Can you just be mad for once?” Another thing that this test pointed out is that I enjoy working with groups and that I am a people person. I believe that this is accurate because with nursing you have to be a people person and also have to empathize with your patients. Teamwork is a huge part of nursing because we

The Minnesota Multiphase Personality Inventory 2 (MMPI-2) assessment is an updated version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory to “revise and reword the language of some of the existing items that were dated, awkward or sexist” (Aiken & Groth-Marnat, 2006, p. 407). This assessment is used for a wide range of clinical conditions based on self-report. The MMPI-2 can also be used in nonclinical settings such as to “assess persons who are candidates for high-risk public safety positions and in criminal/civil forensic settings” (www.upress.umn.edu/test-division/mmpi-2). This assessment is concerned with “psychosomatic symptoms, attitudes, emotions, eating disorders, drug abuse, etc.” (Aiken & Groth-Marnat, 2006, pp. 405-407).

After learning about INFJ type- Counselor, I am totally agreed with the authors who have given the characteristics of the Counselor type very clear and accurate. David Keisey gave a lot of strengths to INFJ personality that makes me happier because I belong to this type of personality. However, I think he should emphasize more about the weaknesses of Counselors personality types, that might help people of this type to know more about themselves and happier in their life. For me, I have two major weaknesses that I really want to learn the way to fix them for helping me to be balance in the relationship with others in my daily life.

The original Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) was developed in 1943 and authored by Starke Hathaway and J. Charnley McKinley. It was developed for constructing a psychological assessment that would be able to assist with the differential diagnoses of psychiatric disorders and for use in clinical settings (Tarescavage & Ben-Porath, 2015). Hathaway and McKinley created a large range of self-report questions in hopes of using the items to develop a concrete, valid measure of personality descriptors (Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2008/2011). Throughout history, this assessment has remained one of the most widely used tools in psychometric assessment of personality and psychopathology

After taking the Individual Personality Assessment my personality trait came back as ESFJ (Extraverted Sensing Feeling Judging). ESJFs are social, structured and very assertive. Most ESJFs enjoy being around a crowd of people without feeling anxious or overwhelmed. ESFJ are very structured when it comes to following plans, events and things of that nature.

The INFJ personality is known to be the world rarest personality type and often misunderstood. This type stand for a percentage of less than 2% of the overall world population according to Holm (2009), the majority of that percentage being female and some famous INFJ that can be named are Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and Mother Teresa. My INFJ in academic and business milieu: from the past week assignment, my preferred four letters chosen base on the instructions received from Myers-Briggs type indicator were INFJ, which stands for Introverting, iNtuiting, Feeling and Judging. For this week assignment I was very surprise after taking the Jungian test to discover that my personality type fours letter were confirmed to be the same INFJ. Having my conformed INFJ profile means that in business milieu, my creativity and sense of responsibility come in first. Although as an INFJ I’m strongly introverted, I nevertheless highly care about my relationship with other individuals. At work I’m open to communication and always available when it comes to help colleagues to carry out on tasks or explaining work procedures. However, my personality type also implies that I can have sudden need for personal time away from others, which is my way to recharge and regain my energy. In an academic milieu, I’m more focus on setting and reaching my goals; I get motivated by planning in advance my studying weeks and do a lot of efforts to meet my assignment deadlines. I can get emotionally

“Curious about possibilities, INFPs enjoy all sorts of creative endeavors”. According to the Meyer Briggs Type Indicator test, this is just one of the things that describe my personality. It is difficult to describe a person off of a set of algorithms. However, tests like the MBTI and the Strong Interest Inventory help pave a pathway to beginning to understand yourself. The results from both tests amplified a lot of what I already knew about myself and also offered new insights. Currently I am trying to decide between different career paths and these tests aid in making the choice. Finally, the values and interests that arise from both tests closely align with the types of jobs I want to have but also offered new jobs to consider. This class helped me understand who I am according to the tests, the career path I would like to take, and how my personality and values align with my future goals.

The original International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) focused on Goldberg’s 100-adjective markers of the psycholexical FFM structure (Goldberg, 1990/1992). The current IPIP-50 is a 50-item prototype public domain (the NEO-PI-R is a commercial questionnaire) personality questionnaire (Goldberg et al., 2006; Goldberg, 2011). Since the questionnaire is free of charge over 600 different studies have employed it (Goldberg, 2016). Until 2005 the IPIP big-five factor markers lacked validating evidence, but research conducted in 2005 found that the IPIP-50 had a high internal consistency and related strongly to both Costa and McCrae’s NEO-FFI and Eysenck’s EPQ-R Short Form (Gow et al., 2005). In addition, Gow et al. (2005) found that although Intellect and Openness related less strong, it was still 0.59. A study carried out in New Zealand found that there was hardly any evidence to suggest hidden biases at the item or scale level of the IPIP-50 (Guenole & Chernyshenko, 2005). Before looking at the research examining the relation between the FFM and EI, this literature review first presents some of the current findings in EI.
