Big 5 Personality Test

[highlander]

The Big Five Project - Personality Test

The Big Five was originally derived in the 1970's by two independent research teams -- Paul Costa and Robert McCrae (at the National Institutes of Health), and Warren Norman (at the University of Michigan)/Lewis Goldberg (at the University of Oregon) -- who took slightly different routes at arriving at the same results: most human personality traits can be boiled down to five broad dimensions of personality, regardless of language or culture. These five dimensions were derived by asking thousands of people hundreds of questions and then analyzing the data with a statistical procedure known as factor analysis. It is important to realize that the researchers did not set out to find five dimensions, but that five dimensions emerged from their analyses of the data.

Some of the questions are hard for me to answer. For example, even when other people say that I'm doing a thorough job, I don't think that I am.

Well, either that or thinking "What I'm doing doesn't even matter."

But I don't wanna derail the thread. Just something that occured to me.

Yeah, that's the unfortunate nature of self-report. It does not and cannot capture absolutely everything about someone. It can simply ask -- "What do you think?" I also tend to be self-effacing, probably rougher on myself than others would be.

I'd like to see if I could get someone IRL to take this test for me..
