The Big Five

[Little lunch]

Yes, I agree with you all.
I feel that highlighting differences between the way people answer straightforward questions is probably the only good use of this test.
But that is still useful in the way I mentioned earlier.
And when I say understanding people's personalities, I probably mean understanding that there are differences in personalities.
I feel that a lot of people develop miscommunications between each other because they think the other is thinking the same way they are and thus assume the reasons behind why they think like they do.

I'm retaking the test now to see if I get the same or at least very similar results to last time.

I always answer all personality tests 100% honesty in the moment regarding what I feel the correct answers are to the questions, regarding myself at the time of when I take the questions.

That 16personalties site is fun to take tests on but I get different results all the time because it seems to change as much as my mood does. Always seems more of a mood test than a personaltity test.

The BIG FIVE on the other hand is supposed to be the most accurate personality test out there, so I'm curious to see if I retake the test now maybe my results will be similar to last time.

Okay, my previous results

Here are my results:

Openness: 36
Conscientiousness: 1
Extraversion: 14
Agreeableness: 1
Natural reactions: 49

And here are my new results:

Openness: 39
Conscientiousness: 1
Extraversion: 23
Agreeableness: 1
Natural reactions: 47

Very similar! Gives me reason to believe this test is vastly more accurate than other personality tests I've taken.

My agreeableness and conscientiousness is identical, at the absolute lowest. I'm in a less anxious mood so it makes sense that my anxiety (natural reactions) score is slightly lower... and I'm feeling more excitable and confident now so it makes sense that my openness and extraversion is higher.

Overall not much has changed and my bottom two scores are still at the absolute bottom.

Cool test.

Where I used to work, I had to interface with government customers on a regular basis. We were taught to repeat the questions that were asked, for three reasons. One, to make sure that the we heard it right, two, to make sure that the rest of the audience heard the question (since we had the mike), and three, to ensure that our people responded to the question asked. One might think that that is a simple thing. I worked in systems engineering in those days, and one has to ask the right question to suss out the truth. People can hide behind terminology all the time. My favorite, asked by management, "Is this done?", to which the response was, "Yes". But the "yes" meant that the person being asked was done with it, but it wasn't really a released design ready to go to manufacturing...when the real question was, "Is that part completed and kitted for floor use?" It got to the point where that one manager would ask, "Is it DONE, done?" to elicit the truth. Best thing is not to lie; when the shit hits the fan, less will usually hit you, if you are truthful. It worked for me, anyway. But then, I was that conscientious guy who let management know when something was behind schedule, so that pressure could be applied appropriately, to make sure it got done on time.

It's a simplistic test and has little validity without follow up questions and responses.
