Standard score

They taught me many valuable lessons from never feeling above others, never falling into temptation, but above all, honesty. When I saw my Hexaco score of 3.38 I thought I should have gotten a higher score, but I agreed with it for the most part. You see my, parents, especially my mom, immediately knew when I lie (I guess it is her instinct as a mother. I tried multiple times to lief to her, when I did things she would not…

On January 19, 2002, Adam Vinatieri, New England Patriots kicker, went out on the field for a field goal attempt that no fan would have considered possible for him to make. It was a windy, and snowy playoff game, and the Patriots were down by 3 points to the Oakland Raiders with 27 seconds left in the game. The fans were very nervous, wondering how the weather conditions would affect Vinatieri. Perhaps they worried about the distance, wishing that the offence would have gotten further down the…

I learned a lot about my positivity over the past two weeks of recording my data. My average from the past two weeks was .82 which is not a good ratio. My average negativity score was 2.7, and my average score positivity was 2.3. My best positivity ratio was 6 and this will be the day I reconstruct and find out where I am most positive. In these past two weeks I had several exams and some quizzes which could be why ratio was so low. I was overwhelmed with stressed the first week I was…

America 's high score of 91 indicates that they do not rely heavily on authorities and developing close, deep friendships are more difficult. Americans are accustomed to doing business with people or companies that they barely know and expectations for successful employees are to be self reliant and have initiative because hiring, promotion and decisions are based on what they can do or what they have don. On the other hand, Brazil 's low score show that when doing business, one…

Praise or Not In the modern age, education is a freeway toward a successful life. Most students have found their methods to have high motivation and efficiency to study better. Family or teachers often praise their students for their good works, or simply just want to manipulate students for a certain goal. Is praise needed for a student in his school life? Many scholars now question our method to use praise, since praise has profound impact on students. In my perspective, praise is not dearly…

As we walked through the middle of campus on a humid Sunday, September sixth, we see multiple people from Purdue everywhere, walking through campus with us. They were taking pictures at our Marshall sign and also at the memorial fountain. We overhear some people quietly talking about how they were also going to go to the memorial of the crash to pay their respects and we thought that was unbelievably nice of them to do. It made us feel like we were all a family, and made me feel proud to go to a…

Starting with my lowest scores which was a two on Inspirational Leadership, we can think of ideas to improve our low scores. Inspirational Leadership is described as what a person does to lead a team in the direction they need to be going and how they lead them. They inspire others to feel like they are something bigger than themselves and therefore want to reach the goals set by the group. While this was my lowest score it is one that can be easily enhanced. There are many…

My first goal as a leader is let followers keep the passion for the work, even if sometimes we may meet difficulties. I think passion is the very important factor of the plan, it will along with all of us for the whole work process. The most significant effect is that passion can determine the attitude of everyone for the work. For example, passion can make us have a good condition at the beginning of every day’s work. Most of the people must feel that they are more energetic at morning than at…

Upon deeper reflection, my scores make a lot of sense. As a person who has never left the country I certainly could not have scored as high as my peers who have studied in other countries or have simply visited them on vacations. I certainly could not have measured up against the…

Reducer-Augmenter Scale, I had scored a score of 83. On the scale there was a possibility of 21 to 126, 21 being a tendency toward “reducing and 126 being a tendency toward “augmenting.” People that are reducing have the high tolerance for pain and augmenting have the low tolerance of pain, my score was closer to the augmenter side then the reducer side. Comparing my self-perceived sense of pain tolerance and the score that I received from the handout, I saw that based on the score I can’t…
