Review Chapter 6 of your textbook. Reflect on your Big 5 and MBTI results and how well you feel they describe your personality. Consider how you would view the results if they were used by a prospective employer to evaluate you for a job or promotion. Interview 1–2 people who have known you for a long time, ideally parents, relatives, or long-time friends. Ask them how they have seen you change over the time they’ve known you.
In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:
Based on your experience this week, do you think a test can truly capture the essence of a person’s personality? Support your answer. Explain whether your personality has been consistent over your lifetime or whether you have changed and how. Describe whether your perceptions or recollections of yourself align with those of your interviewees. Discuss an experience that impacted your personality (e.g., a life event, a realization you needed to change). Are there things about yourself (e.g., behaviors, habits, personality) that you would like to change? Is changing them difficult? Why or why not? To what degree are you the person you want to be? Identify the gaps and how you might address them (or how you are currently addressing them).
Remember to support your positions with information from the readings.
