INSTRUCTIONS: This is a Personality Temperament Test taken from Tim LaHaye's book, "Why You Act The Way You Do". It helps assess your temperament of potential strengths & weaknesses. It's very simple and takes about 45 minutes to complete. There are 4 Sections below. In each section you will find a series of descriptive words. Your job is to read each word and put a number next to it according to how well it describes the REAL you. After you have completed all 4 Sections go to page 2 for further instructions. To get a more accurate assessment of your temperament have 3-4 close friends &/or family members also complete a test about your temperament. REMEMBER: It's important that you be honest and objective. Don't mark a box according to how you want to be seen, rather mark it according to how you really are. If it is NATURALLY who you are then it isn't something that you are "working on" nor is it something that requires a lot of effort in order for you to be that way. It just comes natural. Some of the descriptive words below are very flattering words and some are unflattering words. Don't answer according to how you want to be or don't want to be. BE COMPLETELY 100% HONEST WITH YOURSELF.... BE RAW ABOUT WHO YOU ARE RIGHT NOW AT THIS POINT IN YOUR LIFE.
SCORING CRITERIA: Score how each word best describes you: 1= 3= "That is definitely NOT me!" "That is usually me." 5= 2= 4= "That IS definitely me!" "That is usually NOT me." "That is mostly me."

Answers in personality are neither right or wrong, they are not timed and Personality tests are not timed and the answers are neither right or wrong (Conelly and Ute 3).…

    Meyers Briggs Personality Inventory Survey

    During this semester, I discovered many points, different views, and values I carry that I had not seen before and in addition I learned about my personality. I had a sense of who I was and what my personality was and learned more of my personality because of the Meyers Briggs Personality Inventory survey. This survey allowed me to discover more of my personality traits and the ISTJ personality type describes my traits. The ISTJ personality is seen as being “ quiet, serious earn success by thoroughness and dependability. Practical, realistic, and responsible. Decide what should be done and work toward it, regardless of distractions… Value tradition and loyalty.” (Meyers Briggs Personality Inventory survey) This inventory reflected my personality,…

    Myers-Briggs Personality Assessments

    After completing the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Assessment I discovered that my personality type is ISTJ, and this type makes up about 12% of the U.S. population. ISTJ stands for Introversion, Sensing, Thinking and Judging. I agree with the personality type that was chosen for me. After reading the report about the description of ISTJ, I think that my personality and preferences were outlined great. I am realistic, organized, reasonable, and consistent. I also know what works and doesn’t work based on past experiences and facts. When it comes to others I do often show that I care through actions more than using words.…

    Myers-Briggs Personality Assessment

    This week we began learning more about our own personality type through the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment. I am a ISFJ. According to Kummerow and Hirsh (1998), this means I am an introvert who prefers to take in information using my five senses, base my decisions on personal and social values, and like a planned and organized approach to the outside world (pg. 1).…

    Leadership Assessment

    In the first assessment tool “What Is My Basic Personality?” the focus was on the five-factor model of personalities which are-extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness to experience. Based off this evaluation, my basic personality indicates that I am moderately extroverted because I scored a ten. My conscientiousness, emotional stability and openness to experience scores were high with a score of fifteen. My personality does indicate that I am someone who is agreeable because I scored thirteen. According to the analysis and interpretation, a high agreeableness and conscientiousness score indicates someone who “is good-natured, cooperative, and trusting” (Robbins, 2007 pg.9). A high conscientiousness score represents “someone who is responsible, dependable, persistent, and achievement oriented” (Robbins, 2007 pg.9). Also, a high emotional stability score indicates “someone who is calm, enthusiastic, and secures (Robbins 2007 pg.9). Finally, a high openness to experience score signifies someone who is “imaginative, artistically sensitive, and intellectual” (Robbins, 2007 pg 9). My score indicates that I have a positive emotional stability level, conscientious and openness to experience. However, extraversion and agreeableness were moderate scores which imply that I can improve in these areas.…

    Personality Psychology and Seventy Question Test

    Personality Psychology and Seventy Question Test

    There was no way a seventy question test where you can only select between the letters “A” and “B” could possibly tell me how I am, how I feel, and how I react to certain experiences. The test made me choose between two extremes. Therefore, allowing me to think I would receive one of the two extreme personalities. After obtaining the results, I was very surprised on how everything matched with me to a tee. It was as if someone already knew my path of life from knowing my own personality and how I experience the world; I tested as ISFJ. The letter “I” stands for introverted; Characteristics of an introvert are being quiet, thinking before acting, and being self motivated. When it comes to social interaction I do tend to be very shy and keep to myself. I am always asked “why are you so quiet?” when I am out with a group of people or in a class. I, also, over think or analyze every detail before I do or say anything; especially, when it comes to school work. Nothing drives me more nuts then having to do a school project because I make sure everything is okay or a least decent to be handed in. The next letter, “S”, stands for Sensing which means someone who is practical, realistic, remembers tones of voices or facial expressions, respects facts, etc. I thought it was really interesting how the test results told me I remember greatly tones of voices or facial expressions because I have a hard time remembering someone’s name but, if I were to see their face or hear their voice I can easily remember who that person is. I am very practical when it comes to work or to school. I do things for the matter of doing them because I have to and I never really question the reasoning or purpose behind it. The letter “F” stands for feelings. This means generally someone who is a people pleaser and is unsettled by conflict. I try my hardest to make everyone happy and positive, when I feel the slightest negativity coming from the person around me I tend to blame myself. I…

    Explain The Five Words That Describes Me

    The five words that I believe that describes me are Bi or multi-lingual, organized, visionary, resilient, and listener. Multilingual because I speak and write Spanish and English. Being able to know two languages has been very helpful because I get to help people translate at work or anywhere I go. I like to be organized in my school stuff and personal things because it makes everything so much easy to do and I get things done on time when I organized my stuff. I’m a visionary person because I’m always having ideas for my future and dream about accomplishing my goals. I learn to be a resilient person because if I don’t recover quickly from a difficult situation it will not take me anywhere in life. I never let a difficult situation stop me…
