Did your personality spectrum profile and competency results surprise you? Why or why not? My personality spectrum profile and competency results did not surprise me. I knew what kind of personality and learning style I had beforehand. It just reconfirmed what I already knew about myself. I have an organized style of approach to everything I do, from learning, daily everyday tasks, and work. It showed the strengths of my character. I like to learn in structured, organized environment. Especially when the instructor give exactly what they want out of you when learning from them, like precise instructions, directions, and they give the tools needed to complete their course. My three highest results on the competency spectrum are researching, applying expertise, and logical thinking. Researchers learn new task and retains the information quickly. Also they demonstrate an immediate understanding of newly presented information. A researcher supports good decision making due to well done research. Second was applying expertise this is using technology to achieve goals. Demonstrates an understanding of a variety of different things. Third is logical thinking which is using all sources available to complete a task. Logical thinkers have a great understanding of problems and thinks of ways to solve them. Also they think about the future and the action we make today will affect us in the future and to make wise choices.

    By recognising which group of learning style you belong to can benefit your personal development in many ways. I found out that I am auditory learner, rather than a visual or kinaesthetic learner. This means that I prefer and will work more efficiently through instructions and orders by my teachers or peers.

Whilst working in my group, I had to improve my confidence and communication skills. Because of my preference in auditory learning,…

    I found my personality spectrum to be true of whom I am as an individual person. I understand psychology as a self-portrait of us and this allowed me to be exposed and confirmed my personality. I am a prodigious thinker because I love to solve problems while exploring new ideas and potentials. When I look back as a child I was very analytical and always kept to myself on figuring problems. This can establish well with math, science, or psychology in a field that I would never be bored of. I realize that when I think, I space out and find truth and this will always apply in my everyday tasks. I like to hear questions given time to figure out in my manner of learning.…
