HRPD702 – Contemporary Organizational Behaviour S. Shiewitz
– Individual Assessment of Personality Dimensions
Due Date: as noted on eCentennial website
RATIONALE:
The purpose of this assignment is to have you explore dimensional facets of, the composite hypothetical construct, “personality.” You will do this by studying, self-administering, and then interpreting and reporting on the results of, several “personality tests.”
Each test assesses, typically, just a singular dimension [facet] of this multi-dimensional construct [though some, like the Big 5 and MBTI, measure multiple dimensions on the one test].
To interpret the result[s] properly you will need to investigate / study / research to understand each of the dimensions on each of the tests and what they specifically measure and how the measurement is done.
PROCESS:
INDIVIDUALLY, each student is to self-administer [take] each test for each of the Personality Dimensions listed below [there are 10 in total].
Each test is either in your textbook, or posted on the course website.
You are to assess yourself and provide a short review / critique of 5 tests and what they reveal about you. - Try to limit your reporting to no more than ½ page per test.
Everyone is to take the 10 tests, and provide the results of each of the 10,
BUT you need to do a full report on:
- MBTI
- Big 5
PLUS 3 others of your own choosing from the required list
Please present your findings in chart form as follows:
