In the Open-Mindedness section of the OCEAN model of personality, I scored in the 24th percentile. According to the assessment this means I am somewhat conventional. I am in full agreeance with this assessment of myself. Someone who scores low in this section follows rules and procedures, likes tradition, avoids risk, etc. I believe this to be true as I am in the military and it is very structured. The military teaches you how to adapt to chances and how to be practical.
In the Conscientiousness section of the OCEAN model of personality, I scored in the 86th percentile. According to the assessment this means I am very well-organized, and can relied upon. I am in full agreeance with this assessment of myself. Someone who scores high in this
On the second section, I would like to describe myself as conscientiousness with the score of 30. I am an organized and hard working person, I give more than I'm supposed to give to at work, and I challenge myself to exceed the desired goal in my work.
I’ve been told that I’m a people’s person and that I get along well with others. However, I don’t see that. In fact, I see myself offset from others and I don’t like meeting new people. I often get nervous of meeting new people. So I decided to take a personality test and learned that I my personality is described as OCEAN (“Big-Five Personality Test, 2015”). This test described me as being low in openness to experience, low in conscientiousness, low in extraversion, low in agreeableness, and low in neuroticism. I would have to say I truly agree with this personality test. I have come aware of my personality and I am learning to cope with the lows and turn them to highs. What I men by that is, although I might not be to open or concern with certain things socially, I don’t let it affect me or others. I try to communicate with others, be open, and adjust to meeting new people. Gender Roles and
My scores on the Big Five Inventory assessment were high in almost every category (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness), excluding the trait of neuroticism, which I scored in the middle range.
The personality trait in “OCEAN” that I feel best fits my personality is (E) Etraversion. I am extremely friendly and sociable, making friends everywhere I go. Whether I am out with friends, at school, at my place of work (to an appropriate extent), and even the gym. From being as talkative and sociable as a am, I have created close friendships I never would have expected to form. I am affectionate and compassionate when it comes to family or a friend is upset and needs some advice. Of course I never mind a good hug either.
Considering my personality, based on the “Big 5” personality traits, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness to experience, I scored on the high end of the moderate range. As for the openness to experience, I scored a 9 out of 10 ranging in the high level of personality factor (Project 2, BMAL-500 D, McGraw Hill Connect, Liberty University, 2017). I feel as if though this is accurate as I am generally outgoing and enjoy the company of others.
The five-factor model (FFM) is a contemporary construct describing personality. It incorporates five traits – openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism also referred to as OCEAN. Within each dimension, there are specific personality attributes, for example, openness includes subcategories of feelings and actions. The FFM was influenced by Cattell’s 16-factor model (1957) and shares traits with many other personality theories such as Eysenck’s PEN model. There has been an ongoing debate discussing how many factors appropriately represent the brain structure of personality, suggestions have varied from 2-7, recently Almagor et al. (1995) advocated that a 7-factor model unfolds when evaluative traits are involved. Costa & Mcrae (1992) claim that the FFM is the best theory of personality, however, the model has received much criticism. Through examining different aspects of the model its credibility can be explored.
After taking the Big Five personality test, also known as the OCEAN model of personality, I found the results slightly surprising to me. The first measure they addressed was openness to experience/intellect, and I scored fairly low at the 20th percentile, meaning I prefer more traditional experiences and familiar experiences. The second one, which was conscientiousness, I scored higher on in the 74th percentile, meaning that I am well organized, self-disciplined, and reliable. The third measure of personality is extraversion, and I scored in the 96th percentile which extremely high. This suggests that I am extremely outgoing, social, and
inspection can be analyzed and broken down. Personality, when broken down, is really just a
The one aspect which surprised me a little bit came from how close my code could have changed and given me my self-rating score. The total scores for each of my traits rated my S as a 33, my E as a 23, and my I as a 19; however, my A came in as an 18. I knew I shared the aspects of independence and introversion as an Investigative type, but I did not think it would have been in my top three due to my weakness to math. My aversion to complex math problems are what pushed me to pursue career choices that may not necessarily require advance mathematic skills.
It was too complicated to understand. My results came in as two personalities, ESFJ and ENFJ. According to 16 Personalities, ESFJ is known as the "The Consul." In high school, they're the football players, cheerleaders, student council members or in other words the popular crowd. Extraversion was E, which I had gotten on the Big Five test and basically stating again that I am talkative. I like to talk a lot but when it comes down to doing my school work, I am in full concentration mode. Sensing was S, basically being organized and realistic. Sensors in contrary to Intuitors are more about a day-to-day planner. At the end of the day they want to finish what has to be finished but if course being realistic. Feeling was F, the idea of making decisions based on emotion. It's all about intuition. Judgment was J, going with something and actually doing it. In previous group projects there has always been that one person that changes everything up without telling the group, I dislike this people. If we brainstormed something that we should stick with the plan rather than the flow. My second personality was ENFJ. According to 16 Personalities, “The Protagonist.” People with the ENFJ are born to be leaders, they're the politicians, coaches and teachers, reaching out and inspiring others to achieve and to do good in the world. Three out of the four traits that are in ENFJ were in my first personality type, the remaining one was Intuition. People with this trait tend to prefer speed but in-depth information. I am exactly like when doing
Without even reading the uses and the meanings of that level I felt somewhat uncomfortable to see myself as not a very accommodating type of person. After reading the questions listed under the low score results I felt even worst since basically that is describing a person that is unreasonable, inflexible and stubborn and as a result of that has problems with his/her interpersonal relationships. That is not how I see myself since I am very sociable and have great
Leigh Anne Touhy is the fictional representation of the real life Leigh Anne, famed adoptive mother of Michael Oher from the 2009 film The Blind Side. Leigh Anne is a white interior designer, living in the south with her husband and two children. The family is considered to be part of the upper class, and made their money from owning a string of fast food chains. Leigh Anne and her family take in a black homeless boy, Michael, and throughout the film experience a growing love and bond. They eventually adopt Michael and the Leigh Anne becomes a fiercely protective mother. Very little is revealed about her upbringing
This essay will give a description of Personality before critically analysing the biological basis of personality approach. The biological basis approach tries to account for the mechanisms between genes and personality by looking at various different brain structures whilst the biochemical approach looks at the impact of hormones and neurotransmitters. The majority of our understanding of personality from a biological perspective focuses on the three main behavioural systems; the reward system, the motivation system and the punishment system. Within this essay I will be discussing the three main theories that have come from these ideas, Eyenck’s three-factor model, Gray’s reinforcement sensitivity theory (RST) and Cloningers model of personality.
In the discipline of personality psychology, it is crucial for researchers to conduct studies using universal terms and scales, so that they may effectively compare results and further their line of research. However, when it concerns personality traits, such a comprehensive catalogue has not always been available – in fact, it has taken until up until the late 20th century to develop a list of essential personality traits and create scales that measure these dimensions reliably (John, Naumann, & Soto, 2008). The current set of these widely used traits is called the “Big Five” personality traits, and encompasses five broad dimensions - Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness. Of the five, this paper will focus on Conscientiousness, a trait that describes individuals with impulse control who are highly organized, thorough, planful, efficient, responsible, reliable, and dependable, to name just a handful of characteristics associated with the trait (John, Naumann, & Soto, 2008). Those low in the trait, on the other hand, are more frequently careless and irresponsible (McShane & Steen, 2012). Although studies have shown Conscientiousness to be a predictor of various life outcomes such as health and longevity, this paper will focus on the findings that support Conscientiousness as a predictor of job performance and, when one is high in the trait, success in
The results were more correct then incorrect, but a few of the results were inaccurate. An individual with a consul personality is known to be popular and social which does not describe myself correctly at all. In fact, I am the opposite, I would rather sit in bed and watch television in silence then be around other people, which more accurately describes an introvert. An individual with
