Personality Profile

Your responses to the previous questions have been used to generate this report. The results are grouped here into five categories: extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness. These categories represent the way that most people talk about personality and may therefore reflect cultural or social biases.

While many or all of these categories may look like words you typically use (even ones that often are accompanied with a value judgment) it is important to understand that these five factors are really labels used by psychologists to describe differences between people.

This is not psycho-analysis; the results presented here were created directly from your responses to the items. For that reason, it is unlikely that there should be a mis-match between our descriptions and how you or others view themselves. However, there is always room for error, and we would appreciate your feedback on our inventory and descriptions. Feedback can be left here.

The descriptions used here are borrowed from John Johnson, who hosts a page of descriptions . If you would like to learn more about the model of personality presented here, you can find an overview and a short bibliography on the personality project website. We also discuss how to estimate the reliability of these results and show the distributions of scores from a sample of 50,000 people who have taken the survey.
