  1. the five factor model of personality
  2. 11 McIntyre.
  3. What is the five factor model?
  4. The five factor model of personality is according to Mcrae and john
  5. and I quote,
  6. a hierarchical
  7. Organization of personality traits in terms of five basic dimensions,
  8. extroversion, agreeableness,
  9. conscientiousness,
  10. neuroticism, and openness to experience.
  11. I will be going over each factor in the model.
  12. Their descriptions which are all quoted directly from the website True Itty
  13. where I took the test and the scores I received for each
  14. factor one
  15. openness
  16. openness describes a person's tendency to think in abstract, complex ways.
  17. High scorers
  18. tend to be creative, adventurous and intellectual.
  19. They enjoy playing with ideas and discovering novel experiences.
  20. Low scores tend to be practical, conventional and focused on the concrete.
  21. They tend to avoid the unknown and follow traditional ways.
  22. I scored slightly low with a 40% in openness
  23. factor two.
  24. Conscientiousness.
  25. Conscientiousness describes a person's ability to exercise
  26. self discipline and control in order to pursue their goals.
  27. High scores are organized and determined and are able to
  28. forego immediate gratification for the sake of long-term achievement.
  29. Low scores are impulsive and easily just easily sidetracked.
  30. I scored slightly high on this one of the 60% and that makes a lot of sense.
  31. Factor three
  32. extra version.
  33. Extra version describes a person's inclination to
  34. seek stimulation from the outside world,
  35. especially in the form of attention from other people.
  36. Extroverts engage actively with others to earn friendship, admiration, power,
  37. status, excitement, and romance
  38. introverts on the other hand,
  39. conserve their energy and do not work as hard to earn those social awards.
  40. I scored low with a 31% as I am quite an introvert
  41. factor four
  42. agreeableness,
  43. agreeableness describes a person's tendency to put others needs ahead of
  44. their own and to cooperate rather than compete with others.
  45. People who are high in agreeableness,
  46. experience a great deal of empathy and tend to get
  47. pleasure out of serving and taking care of others.
  48. They are usually trusting and forgiving
  49. People who are low in agreeableness tend to experience less
  50. empathy and put their own concerns ahead of others.
  51. I scored slightly lower at 44%,,
  52. which also makes some sense.
  53. I definitely have empathy but I sometimes struggle to show them
  54. and factor five
  55. neuroticism
  56. Neuroticism describes a person's tendency to
  57. experience negative emotions including fear,
  58. sadness, anxiety, guilt and shame.
  59. While everyone experiences these emotions from time to time,
  60. some people are more prone to them than others.
  61. High neuroticism scores are more likely to react to a situation with fear, anger,
  62. sadness and the like
  63. low neuroticism scores are more likely to brush off their misfortune and move on.
  64. I scored high in this category with a 75%.
  65. Um,
  66. and I honestly had to make sure all my friends knew
  67. that this was my score because I thought it was funny
  68. because it's really accurate um,
  69. definitely accurate for me,
  70. even though it's really accurate.
  71. A lot of my friends though did try and come up with some nicer words
  72. than neurotic for me
  73. like organized.
  74. So those are five factors of our five factor model
  75. and here are my thoughts on them.
  76. Is this accurate?
  77. Well based on what I know about myself and what this personality test shows.
  78. I believe that it is pretty accurate for me.
  79. Um I think it would be less accurate if I wasn't honest in my
  80. answers and I'm sure that there isn't a one size fits all test.
  81. Um, but for me it really was accurate.
  82. I think that maybe not for everyone who takes it because
  83. a lot of people tend to pick more favorable answers.
  84. What they perceive is favorable and not how they
  85. perceive themselves are text hit on that as well.
  86. That there was problems with the initial
  87. 240 item um, personality assessment because again,
  88. people were trying to pick things that
  89. seemed more agreeable than what they actually were
  90. portraying as a person.
  91. Um, is it reliable in other cultures?
  92. I think that knowing that these five factors are
  93. really based on biology and um they're pretty universal.
  94. I think it's accurate to be able to
  95. use that to help us see people's personality, but it's not our entire personality.
  96. There's a lot of cultural things and social things that go into our personality.
  97. I think that it has the potential to be accurate in
  98. in places and inaccurate in others because of the assessment form.
  99. Um
  100. it depends on cultural values, how we are perceived,
  101. how we perceive favorable traits.
  102. Um Some cultures may may favor being an
  103. extrovert while others favor being an introvert,
  104. so there might be some skewed data because
  105. people are picking what they think is favorable,
  106. not what's true.
  107. Um I also
  108. again don't believe that this is a one size fits all thing
  109. are five factors are not the entire part of our personality,
  110. and so I think that it could be reliable, but it could also not be
  111. in many cultures.
  112. Um And my references are available
  113. here.
  114. Thank you.
