Last one of the 3 I thought that were interesting/worthwhile/good. It also seems like a somewhat decent way to "test" for Fi or Fe preference, but I don't think the correlation will be that terribly strong as enneagram will shift it.

Self-Monitoring Personality Quiz: Do you censor what you say? Find out if you're a low or high self-monitor and how this affects your personality

-------------------------------------

Self-monitoring refers to how a person behaves in different contexts (ie, work, visiting friends, or shopping). A high self-monitoring person is someone who monitors and adapts their own behavior to match their surroundings. A low self monitor tends to use their internal values and beliefs to figure out how to behave.
In other words, a low self monitor will exhibit the same behavior in different contexts, whether it's a meeting at work, softball game with friends, or family reunion. A high self monitor will act differently in these different contexts, perhaps acting more formally at work or cracking jokes with friends, if that is what others are doing.


High self monitors:

  • show variability in behavior in different contexts, and are extremely flexibile in adapting to their current situation
  • tend to have different public and private personas and are careful about mixing different social circles
  • tend to make better managers and do better in jobs that involve influencing other people (sales, marketing, hiring, politicians)
Low self monitors:

  • use internal values and beliefs in deciding how to behave
  • act the same in most social circles
  • can be relied upon for opinions as they tend to say it like they see it
  • tend to be better in research and project-based work

If I had a post I was going to post to explain some of my answers, and then didn't feel good about posting it because it might just not be appreciated or could even ruffle feathers (so I didn't post it)... well, I bet that makes me a self-monitor, doesn't it? ;)
