From Chapter 3 in the webtext, what are the Big 5 personality traits? How
are the Big 5 personality traits related to yourself and social awareness?
Write a paragraph that lists all five personality traits and discusses the value
of the Big 5.
1. Conscientiousness: This trait is one that I best relate to. I consider
myself organized, creative, driven, reliable and very punctual.
2. Agreeableness: When interacting with new people I do not rely upon
fi rst impressions.
3. Neuroticism: I do experience a lot of anxiety in particular environments.
4. Openness: I grew up with a gossiping family. Because of this I am the
opposite. I know what it feels like to be the subject of others gossip,
mostly by my family alone.
5. Extraversion: I tend to avoid interacting with many people.
Each personality trait helps people better understand how they differ from
other
Of the Big 5 personality traits, conscientiousness suits me most. I tend to
be organized, dependable, self-disciplined, as well as being stubborn, and
spontaneous. I am a sympathetic person and help others in need if I have
the means to do so. I do possess traits of low agreeableness by being
competitive and argumentative. I have some openness traits such as
curiosity and unusual ideas; I'm also independent and prefer spontaneity
over a more stringent routine. I cannot relate to extraversion but
neuroticism due to feeling anxiety and depression.
1. Of the Big 5 personality traits, one of them most accurately characterizes
Lakiesha. Which of the Big 5 personality traits most accurately describes
Lakeisha? Why? Write a paragraph to identify which one of the Big 5 best
describes Lakeisha and why.
Lakeisha shows traits of the consciousness personality. Lakeisha seems to be
anal retentive by obsessing over even the non-essential details. Her
organizational skills are very precise. I feel she needs to maintain control
over her work due to the fear of it being modified by others.
