extroversion was a continuum where like, some low number was super introvert and some high number was super extrovert.

i scored off the charts. off the bottom of the charts. like whatever it was, the bottom seriously stopped higher than what my score had been.

i find this interesting because ive become considerably less introverted in recent years. i used to not even order my own food at restaurants cause talking to the wait staff freaked me out. now i feel like a fairly normal person.

also, i find it really funny cause i get to say "off the charts" and it actually MEAN off the charts and not just be a clever saying.

actually that wasn't the one... well, i didnt look at the one you posted, im assuming its the uhhh Jungian one? i think jung.

this was similar but it was called the neo-five something something factor inventory and it provided more detail, like instead of just getting that you are an introvert or extrovert you get a score to compare with a bell curve of typical scores by gender, but the chart they give you only goes out two standard deviations in each direction

im pretty sure if i DID find it online you'd have to pay lots of money

if i could do math i'd think i was autistic. as it stand im just kind of strange. i scored high in agreeableness though, so i guess when i do deal with people i'm really nice.

this is the one she gave us in class


for the most part i think personality tests are phooey. my teacher said pretty much the same thing, that she doesnt like to do them when she does clinical work because people are too complex to be described by a score

edit: i forgot this http://www.sigmaassessmentsystems.com/prices/neoffi.asp

Maybe that site does, but you can take it for free elsewhere.

nope. i posted it already. the neo-pi, or the shortened for is the one we actually took, the neo-ffi

i think they're mostly all the same shit but somehow this one is supposed to be better. my teacher talked the most shit about the meyers-briggs test. if you go to career couseling here at school they try to make you take they meyers-briggs test... i refused cause it was like $40 and it woudlnt tell me anything i dont already know, so they were like "oh well we cant help you then" but someone else told my teacher about a similar experience and she was pretty outraged saying that tests like that have nothing to do with career type stuff and was flabbergasted that people try to use those for figuring out what kind of career you should go into. flabbergasted.
