Self-Assessment 3.1: What Is My Big Five Personality Profile?

Personality measurement can be fun and informative—but it can also be challenging if the results are not as you might expect. There has been a great deal of research and thought given to how best to categorize persons in personality terms. Much of this research and writing has coalesced around the view that the most helpful categorization scheme involves five dimensions of personality. These have come to be known as “The Big Five.”

Read each statement in the survey and select the rating that reflects to what extent each of the following statements describes you, with 1 representing “Not At All Like Me” and 5 representing “Very Much Like Me.” There are no right or wrong answers. After completing the self-assessment, read the feedback that explains how to understand your score and interpret your results.

You must respond to all statements in order to receive full credit for this self-assessment activity.
