Similar Minds

Once again stealing a page from Amy.

Here are my Big Five Test Results:

Extroverted: 54%
Introverted: 46%
Friendly: 58%
Aggressive: 42%
Orderly: 50%
Disorderly: 50%
Relaxed: 38%
Emotional: 62%
Openminded: 58%
Closeminded: 42%

The Big Five is currently the most accepted personality model in the scientific community. The Big Five emerged from the work of multiple independent scientists/researchers starting in the 1950s who using different techniques obtained similar results. Those results were that there are five distinct personality traits/dimensions. Here are your results on each dimension:

Extroversion results were medium which suggests you are moderately talkative, optimistic, sociable and affectionate.

Friendliness results were moderately high which suggests you are good natured, trusting, and helpful but possibly too much of a follower

Orderliness results were medium which suggests you are moderately organized, reliable, neat, and ambitious.

Emotional Stability results were moderately low which suggests you are worrying, insecure, emotional, and nervous.

Openmindedness results were moderately high which suggests you are creative, original, curious, imaginative but possibly not very practical.

Overall (of the Big 5 factors), you scored highest on Friendliness and lowest on Emotional Stability.

OY. OY. Crack me up. "Not practical." Ha ha ha. "Friendly," ha ha ha (ask people at work about that). "Low emotional stability:" bang on target. ha ha ha

Time to use that medium-level orderliness to pound out some UK records....snore.
