The Big Five Personality Inventory
Comments on the Results
Answering the questions was a challenging task due to the complexity of gauging a response based on the scale provided. However, the test was engaging where most aspects that define the personality of an individual are evaluated. The test deploys a high degree of precision to gauge where the personality of an individual lies based on the outcome/results.
Discussion of the Results
The results of the test show that I have an inquisitive personality. I recorded an average rating of 58% in inquisitiveness. These results mean that I am curious, intellectual, imaginative and hardly practical (“Similarminds.com”). However, I noted that the average scores of the other personality traits were close with 54% in both extroversion and orderliness. A 54% rating in extroversion means that I am neither assertive nor social. Instead, the results suggest that my personality lies between being withdrawn and solitary (“Similarminds.com”). A 54% rating in orderliness means that although I am moderately organized, structured and self-controlled, I can remain fun, flexible and varied. I recorded the least scores in accommodation, 46% and a slightly higher score in emotional stability, 48%. Unfortunately, the average scores for emotional stability, 48%, were moderately low and this means that I am neither calm nor resilient. Instead, the results suggest that my personality lies between anxious and reactive.
Wait! The Big Five Personality Inventory paper is just an example!
A 46% rating in accommodation implies that I am moderately kind natured, trusting and helpful (“Similarminds.com”). However, the results also revealed that I tend to maintain my interests.
The accuracy of the Results
I think the results are at the highest level of precision and accuracy when assessing the personality of an individual.
Reason
I have always had the curiosity of learning and discovering new ideas and concepts with a motive of making the world a better place for humankind. I knew that my personality would revolve around the inquisitive character. Luckily, the test shows that I recorded a higher average rating in the inquisitive category as compared to the other personalities. Additionally, I noted that I am an average person because the scores range from 46% to 58%.
Surprising Results
I had doubts about the average rating of extroversion because I like socializing, meeting new persons and developing friendships with strangers. I expected the results to show that I am more social than assertive.
Cultural Bias
I believe that the results were culturally neutral and can, therefore, be used to assess the personality of any individual regardless of their cultural background.
