If you look around you it is very clear that there is an abundance of differing personalities in the world. These personalities are very unique and not one personality is exactly the same. Because of this, personality assessments are used in all areas of life to help us have the ability to know how our minds habitually work and how we can best work with and serve others.The personality test that I chose to use for this assignment is called The Big Five. This test has five basic ideas that it tests for, hence the name The Big Five. Extroversion, agreeableness, openness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism or most commonly know as emotional stability are the five major aspects of your personality that this test focuses on. The big five is accepted by an abundance of personality psychologists, because they believe that it captures the most important differences amongst personalities.
The test that I took on similar minds gave me 44% extroversion, 66% orderliness, 82% emotional stability, 58% accommodation, and 36% inquisitiveness. Since I have taken other personality tests pretty recently for another class I can see that this is pretty accurate for my personality as far as tests go. I also believe it is pretty accurate for my personality in general all across the board. Overall, according to the tests that I have taken I would say that I am a very even kill person and as most people would describe me very "go with the flow."Sources:

Hello Sarah! I really enjoyed reading this blog! It was very interesting and detailed. Only suggestion I might make is to make the sources into actual links. You can do this by pasting them and then highlighting the URL and clicking link when you are writing your blog. Other than that keep up the good work :)
