Week 4 : Personality Assessment

Jung Typology Test
This test showed a person's personality. I am an ISTJ type. The test showed that I was moderately expressed introvert (44%), slightly expressed sensing personality (1%), slightly expressed thinking personality (1%), and slightly expressed judging personality (11%). The suggested jobs for me were being a computer programmer, engineer, or a mechanic.
I slightly disagree with the test. I did not think that I would be 44% introverted, and I do not judge personality that much. Overall I consider this test 3/4 valid.

EQ Test
This test covered your emotions and if your express your emotions fairly well. My score for the EQ test was 41. It says that I am sensitive to emotions of other people. It also says that I am well aware of the effect that my behavior has on my friends, family, and peers. It also advises me to express my feelings more.
This EQ test was semi valid. I also agree with the expressing the feelings part. I tend to not express any emotion. I am also sensitive to others emotion, but I don't reveal too much.

Explain Your Brain: Attraction Test
This test showed your attraction to certain types of people. It shows which people you would like to associate yourself with and have a relationship with. The test said that I had a 20% likingness of rebellious, non traditional girls. I had a bigger percentage of outgoing girls(about 75%). They predicted that I liked girls that were more sophisticated and had class. The girls were nicely dressed. I agree with this test of attraction. It confirms that I dont like trashy, unsophisticated girls.

Explain Your Brain: Religion Study Test
The charts lets you see how people from religious/spiritual backgrounds responded to the question 'How often do you pray?' The chart posted the percentages the people with their beliefs said. It showed that Agnostics and Athiests did not have as high percentages as the other religions.It surprised me that Muslims, Christians, and Catholics are very smilar when it comes to applying religion to daily life and contributing to their worships by donating money, etc.
I believe that this test is valid. I believe that if you stick to a religion that has morals, you are bound to connect with your spiritual and religious side.

Find Your Hogwarts House Test
This test asked a series of questions that would determine what kind of person you where. The test used Hogwarts Houses from Harry Potter to represent personality and self worth. I got a 100 for Gryfindor (brave and daring), 86 for Hufflepuff (modest and friendly), 62 for Ravenclaw (intelligent), and 41 for Slytherin (powerful and cunning). I was placed in the House of Gryffindors.
I agree very much with this test. The two top choices I was aiming for were Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. I and rebellious at times and very fair-minded. This test is valid because it has a lot of questions pertaining to the way people are and their personality

Week 3: Personality Disorder: Dear MOM

Dear MOM,



I don't know why, but there is this girl that keeps staring me down. I think that she is looking at my legs when I am sitting in the library during Hall Time. Every time I look over to her table, I think she is glaring at me from behind over her raised book. Either she is looking to take my position as Student Body Representative, or maybe she is just trying to hook up with me. I am having a great time here at Bounceville, Utah and I made new friends. It is kind of hard to master all the hard classes especially when my new friends take away the pleasure of letting me study quietly. Yo mom, I have to tell you that there was this man, that told me to eat more. Do you think I am that skinny?!?!? I have really tried to gain weight, but it won't work. I jammed two Burger Macs down my throat, but I guess I burned it off while I was walking. All these comments by these ungrateful, random people are making me this close {} to quitting school. Oh yeah I have to tell you about the time when this guy named Drale. He dropped his books on the floor. He dropped it while I was walking. I know he was trying to trip me. Of course I had to be the nice guy and I picked it up for him. I'm staying in school for you mom. Becasue I know you love me and I love you.

Coming HOME for Christmas,
J
