The Big Five test

[RonYells]

Hi. I did a short googling spree looking for a more accurate personality test than the MBTI, and I found this:

http://www.outofservice.com/bigfive/

It's a personality test based on empirical data derived from previous studies on other personality tests (including MBTI). It also bases the results according to gender, age, and location. This gives out a pretty accurate with minimal bias and less generalized, uhh, generalization of your personality.

Here's an example of it's results:

(These are mine, which tells me I'm a young-adult crackpot. great. haha)

p.s. I don't have anything against those who hold the MBTI test in high regards. I see personality tests as a "whatever floats your boat" kind of thing. I mean, if something helps you make sense of the world and yourself a little better, then so be it

I'm not sure how much my results matter.

I guess it's up to you to determine how you can use your results for yourself. I could interpret it for you? It could be fun. or awkward. whatever.

That's very kind of you to offer RonYells, but that's alright. Neat thread though.

Interesting, this is what I got.

I'd have to agree 100% with my results for Neuroticism, " You are a generally anxious person and tend to worry about things." I do this A LOT, even things people may see as little, I'll worry about them.

So I'm a relaxed, disorganized, disagreeable guy?

 

[Sci-Fi]

That or you were just being too hard on yourself when you answered the questions. Hard to tell from just the forum but I don't think you are disagreeable.

 

[perfanoff]

Well I like expressing my opinions, and don't censure them when they disagree with others', so I think I pass off as disagreeable (just by the number of people that have straight-up said "fresia you" to me here)

 

[Sci-Fi]

Oh, well that necessarily doesn't make you disagreeable, just strongly opinionated. I for one don't recall ever telling you to f-yourself or recall thinking that so you can't be all that disagreeable.

 

[perfanoff]

Yeah you're correct at that one.

[Cavey]

I'd say it's pretty accurate. It says that I'm a highly strung, disagreeable twat; which I'd happily agree with.

Here are my results.

I agree.

I give in trying to embed mine.

"I'm a O24-C13-E1-A1-N94 Big Five!!"

"

I disagree with the O. I'm a musician, so by design it's my duty to be creative. I have an incredibly active imagination, and a wide variety of interests. Yes, I am down to earth, but that's due to my pessimistic nature more than anything else.

The rest is pretty much accurate, though.
