Psychology Applied Assignment #2: Personality Assessment Please do this assignment in the order listed below. Take the test: http://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test. It will take about 5-10 minutes. Do NOT choose “neutral” answers. It does not benefit you to choose socially desirable answers (presenting yourself in a manner you may feel is ideal instead of honest), as there’s not a “wrong” personality type. There are the sections you will be reporting on: 1. Results. Write up your result (the letters and the full typology) and your interpretation of the meaning of your result (do not copy and paste what the assessment gives you). 2. Connection to your life. Discuss THREE areas of your life where you can see the accuracy of your typology OR three areas that disconfirm these results. 3. Researching the assessment measure. Now, research information on the Myers-Briggs Personality Type. Review at least TWO sources, with at least one coming from the scholarly literature (look at the “How to Find Appropriate Sources” link in the Links & Tools section on Canvas to learn more about how to find said sources). List the two sources you looked at. Does the information you found confirm or disconfirm the validity of this type of personality typing? Reference EACH source in your answer. 4. Utility of assessment. Why are these types of personality assessments useful? Did you find the results useful? Why or why not? 5. Other options. What might be a more useful personality assessment (based on the information in Chapter 11) and why? Please justify your response. This assignment should include: 1. Label your answers by numbers that correspond with the questions. ANSWER EVERY QUESTION. It should include 5 distinct answers labeled 1-5. 2. Make sure to answer all the questions within the questions and that you have the appropriate amount of examples and sources. 3. You must reference the text when I indicate “based on information in Chapter 11.” 4. This must have in-text citations and full references from the text and the websites you reviewed. Remember to list the sources you looked at in #3.
