Personality Profile Reflection Paper

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.

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

After taking Jung’s typology test I received the personality type INTJ. The introvert score given was a 59 percent, intuitive 16 percent, thinking 25 percent and judging 56 percent. Based on these scores I took a look at what my strengths would be. According to the website used to take the test one strength would be that INTJ’s are perfectionist while some may consider this a bit of a weakness, I don’t think it’s such a bad thing. INTJ see that there is always room to improve and learn more, especially about things that they find interesting. Another strength is having the combination of both imagination and reliability, this is good when it comes to working on projects or coming up with an idea for something, because not only can you envision what it will be but you can decide realistically if it will work. Butt and Heiss (n.d.) say that INTJ’s are also good at seeing opportunities other people may not. The high introvert score indicates I am much better at working alone then with the help of others, and normally working on something until it is completed. When it comes to other strengths, INTJ’s will work extremely hard in relationships and are very good at picking up people’s emotions. This is part of the intuitive dimension. Thinkers are good at making strong decisions based on rational information rather than

Now that I have taken the personality type test, my results have shown that I am INFJ, the advocate, which I believe that it does not relate to me. This personality mainly focuses on helping people and tend to speak with people using their feelings and emotions. As a result, they forget to take care of themselves because they are too busy taking care of others. However, some people might believe that they're quiet, but truly INFJs only speak when they believe it's right.

My current employer offers an assessment that judges the candidates based on the hospital’s mission, values, and guiding behaviors. This is to ensure that the candidate selected will be successful adjusting to the culture of the organization. Although the purpose and goal of the assessment are to find the best candidate, I have been disappointed about several I have interviewed because they were not completely honest.

In doing my personality profile project, I learned new things, confirmed known things, and disagree with some information about myself. I will take this time to compare and contrast my new found information.

Each one of us has his or her judgment about different issues that affect us on a daily basis. It is because we have different genes that result in different traits to thereby resulting in different reactions to different situations. While some people are profoundly affected by the death of a family member, some are strong and gather the courage to move on with life. Personality allows us to express our emotions differently. In this case, our gene composition will enable us to be in a position to react to different stimuli influencing daily decisions. The purpose of this paper will be to define personality at a deeper level while focusing on various personalities domain and how they apply to different personality theories.

It is virtually impossible for a team to be truly effective or successful without the individual personalities that make up the team taking the time to develop the best way to work together. Our textbook defines organizational behavior (OB) as “a field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and structure have on behavior within organizations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge toward improving an organization’s effectiveness” (Robbins & Judge, p. 10). The benefits and deficiencies of personality that each person possesses should all be determined and strategically positioned to best suit the team or task at hand. As stated by Dr. Kahlib J. Fischer, “So it is important that you understand your own behavioral tendencies and the behavioral tendencies of other individuals if you really want to understand how organizations behave and how they should behave according to God’s purpose” (Fisher, 2006). For the purposes of this paper, we will take an in depth look at my personal inventory assessment results and provide recommendations for growth in corporate, spiritual and personal areas.

This paper will briefly look at two types of strategic assessment, that of personality-focused job analysis and competency modeling. Personality-focused job analysis is discussed in a general sense, and also in connection to technology and how it may be used to mitigate personal bias when using this analysis. Competency modeling is examined from a broad standpoint and in relation to current trends in social networking. Both types of assessment strategies will be explored through the lens of globalization and how it has impacted these trends. Other information may be given as it relates to, or helps to develop, the topic.

The personality assessment was a very strategic test that made one self understand new ideas of how one should perceive his or her own personality towards their ideal career path. My personality tested as ISTP which stands for Introverted,sensing,thinking, and perceiving. This personality description gave me a clear insight to the possible care choices that may be best suited for me. As being a person with high intrapersonal intelligence I am aware of my own strengths and weaknesses that am able to understand my own personality better.

A modified version of the Big 5 Personality Test was taken to assess my weaknesses and aptitudes for leadership. The test was designed to analyze 45 aspects of personality, such as listening skills, emotional stability, communication skills, critical thinking, motivation to lead, and conflict management styles. My answers suggest I have significant room for improvement in the areas of assertiveness and consideration for others. Conversely, my test results suggest I have significant strengths in the areas of emotional stability and critical thinking. The assessment appeared to adequately reflect my personality based on my own self-perception. Lessons learned from both the assessment and course material were integrated, which facilitated deeper critical thinking in the subjects of organizational behavior and leadership skill development. Finally, the subject of organizational behavior was discussed as it pertains to biblical teachings.

According to Dennis Coon and John O. Mitterer (2016), “psychologists use a large number of concepts and theories to explain personality” (p. 384). Traits are qualities that a person consistently exhibits to make up who they are. I took the personality survey on myself. Then I used four raters to compare how I view myself versus how others view my personality.

Among the numerous psychological models of personality studied in this chapter, I believe the most useful model of personality is the five-factor model. Rather than focusing on character traits, the unconscious, or learning principles, this model describes personality as being derived from five higher-order traits known as the “Big Five” (Weiten, McCann, 2016). The Big Five, developed by Robert McCrae and Paul Costa, consists of extraversion, neuroticism, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. Thesis (?): This model is most compelling to me as I can easily identify fundamental aspects of my personality with it.

The Psychological Personality Type/Preferences survey is designed to indicate your personality traits. It measures your energy source, from either external (E) or internal (I) interactions. How you perceive information, fact (F) or possibilities (P). How you make your decisions, objectively (O) or subjectively (S), and lastly, how you present yourself to the world, decided (D) or flexible (L). When these measurements are put together they give a generalized view of your personality.

Arthur Rubinstein says, “There is no formula for success, except, perhaps, an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.” This quote relates to my life because I am generally a laid back person. I live my life by just accepting everything, and the results I got from the tests show this about me. The Fate Test showed that I believe I control my own life. The Romance Test revealed that I don’t believe in “true love”. The Excitement Test showed that I do things for the knowledge and experience. The Self Esteem Test revealed that I need to work on the way I view myself . I will be discussing these four tests because I feel that the results I got from these were the most accurate out of all of the
