After taking the NEO-IP-R Personality Test, I concluded that the test was fairly accurate assessment of my personality, and it confirmed what I believe my personality to be. There were five factors and some sub-facets on each factor, which I am going to discuss whether or not I agree or disagree with each factor. The first category is Extraversion. I scored in the average numbers, with the description that I am neither a subdued loner nor a jovial chatterbox (IPIP-NEO). I would agree with this assessment. While I am somewhat enthusiastic, and action-oriented person, sometimes I tend to be quiet and low-key, and deliberate individual. I see myself as an ambivert person, which means a person who has a balance of extrovert and introvert features

I scored in the lower numbers, indicating that I am less concern with others’ needs than my own, and people see me as a tough, critical, and uncompromising person (IPIP-NEO). I do not agree with the result, because it contradicts to what I believe my personality to be. I always see myself willing to compromise my interests with others. I will also generally assist those who are in need, be considerate, friendly, and get along well with them. I also scored low in sympathy, and I do not agree with that. I believe that I have a natural affinity for empathy and sympathizing with others. I can feel the pain of others vicariously, and often easily moved to pity. For example, when I see a homeless on the roadside, it is very heartbreaking for me. I always want to help them, even if I can just give them some pennies that I have. However, I agree with some assessments on the other sub-traits. I scored high in trust, one of the sub-traits in agreeableness. To illustrate, I always trust people easily, even strangers or persons that I do not really know. I consistently assume that most people are fair, honest, and have good …show more content…
I scored in the higher numbers in this category, and therefore it said that I am well-organized, reliable, self-controlled, and perceived as an intelligent person by others I agree with this assessment, since all my friends often tell me that I am a very organize person. Moreover, I also agree with the negative side of being a conscientious individual. My family and friends know that I am perfectionist person. I am always striving for flawlessness and setting high performance standards, I also often concerns regarding others' evaluations. On the sub-traits, I scored high in the orderliness, means that I am well-organized, and I like to live according to routines and schedules (IPIP-NEO). It is very true, because I like to keep lists and make plans. I also consistently make my own schedules for all my activities, assignments due, and exams days in a particular month. Furthermore, I also scored high in dutifulness, and I agree with it. Dutifulness reflects the strength of a person’s sense of duty and obligation, and those who score high on this scale have a strong sense of moral obligation (IPIP-NEO). I consider myself as a person who tend to obey the rules, and I always feel bad every time I do not follow the things that I obligated
