Psychology Results

I'm in a PSYCH class this semester as my elective and we took two personality tests as a part of it: the NEO PI R and the Myers Briggs. I thought my blog readers (all 5 of you) might find my results semi-interesting.

The NEO is scored in five categories: OCEAN. I scored really high in Neuroticism (no shock there!) but as much as I call myself neurotic, it actually means that I react to things emotionally, which is true. Next was extroversion, where I scored on the low average side...totally agree with that as I refer to myself as an "outgoing introvert." After that is Openness, I scored low haha. I was a little disappointed with myself because I know I used to be pretty judgmental but thought I had opened up pretty well in recent years. Looks like I still have some work to do. Next was agreeableness, I scored low on that too...ha. Wasn't a shock because I am not quick at all to trust people and almost always have my guard up. Last is consciousness, and I scored low on that too (what the heck?!). This was a bit of a surprise at first, but then I realized yea...I really have no order in my life if I am left on my own (take now, when I was being productive then tuned on Pandora and started typing this blog). So basically, the NEO confirmed that I am literally a hot mess...which I already knew :).

Myers Briggs scored me as INFP- Introvert, Intuitive, Feeling and Perceptive. All fit me extremely well. Once again, I scored high in reacting emotionally and low on use of logical/rational thinking :-p. Definitely makes sense, I mean look at my past posts! I would never want to change though, that's the sick thing!

Ok so I took one online and it said I am ISTJ, which basically says I'm dependabl. There are a couple of quotes that sound like me... "ISTJ's tend to develop strong, loyal, consistent friendships that stand the test of time. ISTJ's may have trouble showing emotion but within the strength of a time-tested friendship they often find comfort."

Oh, and I thought you'd enjoy this one... "The ISTJ is often a good student. In classes such as science and math they tend to excel due to their factual nature"

I love science!!
