Taking a Break From the Taxes

I'm making good progress on my taxes. I'm also doing my annual "Why can't I just file those papers when I get them" laments. The Saturday Night Britcoms are on in the next room. And I'm wasting time on yet another personality test.

Your Five Factor Personality Profile


Extroversion:

You have medium extroversion. You're not the life of the party, but you do show up for the party. Sometimes you are full of energy and open to new social experiences. But you also need to hibernate and enjoy your "down time."

Conscientiousness:

You have low conscientiousness. Impulsive and off the wall, you don't take life too seriously. Unfortunately, you sometimes end up regretting your snap decisions. Overall, you tend to lack focus, and it's difficult for you to get important things done.

Agreeableness:

You have medium agreeableness. You're generally a friendly and trusting person. But you also have a healthy dose of cynicism. You get along well with others, as long as they play fair.

Neuroticism:

You have low neuroticism. You are very emotionally stable and mentally together. Only the greatest setbacks upset you, and you bounce back quickly. Overall, you are typically calm and relaxed - making others feel secure.

Openness to experience:

Your openness to new experiences is high. In life, you tend to be an early adopter of all new things and ideas. You'll try almost anything interesting, and you're constantly pushing your own limits. A great connoisseir of art and beauty, you can find the positive side of almost anything.

I'm sure that this is stereotypical thinking, but I'd guess that extroversion wouldn't be the most pronounced quality of aspiring Polies.

I had expected my results to show a higher neuroticism score.
