Reflection Paper On Personality - 1427 Words

For this paper, I wanted to get an analytical point of view on what my personality is. To do this, I took two personality tests from the Similar Minds website. The first one I took was the Big 45 Test. That personality test consisted of 225 questions that gave me the answer range from ‘very inaccurate’ to ‘very accurate’. My results were nearly similar in percentage; for Extroversion I got 59%, Accommodation is 67%, Orderliness is 59%, Emotional Stability is 51%, and Open-mindedness is 73%. What I liked about this test is that it broke down each section down even further. For example, when I looked at the category Extroversion, I was given specific percentages for the labels that fall into the Extroversion group like ‘Leadership’.

But, when I break down a category even further, like the Accommodation ca tegory, I don’t believe that my ‘Nurturance’ is as high as it claims I am, which is a 66% on the exam. The reason I say this is because since I scored high for this subcategory, it means that I am ‘people pleasing’ and that I come last instead of putting my needs first. I will admit, that when I was younger I was someone who was like that. In fact, had I taken this exam a few years ago I probably would have scored higher than a 66% on this specific subcategory. But, because of personal growth, I feel like I have learned how to put myself first. I learned that I need to put myself first before I put others first because if I want to give people the best care I need to feel like I am at my best. For the R-Drive Personality, I think my Independence score is spot on with how I act around and towards others. I have always been someone who likes to do things on their own, but I am also learning how to ask for help when I need it. That is why I scored a 66% on Independence. As for what I oppose on my results is my Hedonism score, which is a 72%. Having a high Hedonism score means that I am someone who is highly proven to be a drinker, smoker, and drug addict. People who have a high score of Hedonism like to act against the rules, even when their safety is on the line.
