Allen's Lab Homework(6)

I used to do the questionnaire of the big five, which is separated personality by five dimension of person traits. However, when I wanted to revisit my result, I found that I forgot the password and account, I had no choice but did it again. Because the interval of two test is as long as the time I late to submit the homeork, I can barely remember the quertions and the answers I replied. To my surprise, I was struck by the similarity between this result and previous one. the likeness of the results seem to indicate that personality is stable because "Rome was not built in a day". According to my teacher of sociology, the result of the big five is seen to be inherent by psycologist. I think the statement may be a good interpretation of the correspondence, though I am not sure.

The five dimension of person trait is OCEAN, which is a abbreviated name of open, conscientious, extroverted, agreeable, and nervous. I got the lowest score in "conscientious", which mean I am a disorganized guy. I am often careless in my life. I usually forgot something important or lose anything you can image. And just as the website of questionnaire described, I have a messy desk!

I think that the big five test doesn't perform magic. In fact, it faithfully reflect what you key in the keyboard. However, when I answered the questions, I found that I seldom think of some of questions in my daily life. Therefore, it is a good way to see the way in which you see yourself and reveals some different view about yourself. In my case, the most impressive one is that what I think about who I am is still different from the one the result of questionnaire reveals. For example, I orginally thought that I can hadle social situations well even thought I think I am shy, too. But the result reflect that I tend to shy away from the social situations in comparison to others who done the same questionnaire. In addition, I never think that I am easy to express irritaion with other, which is a unexpected outcome for me. It show either something wrong during I answer the question or the woeful ignorance of me. Whichever the answer is, it is interesting to do the questionnaire of person traits.
