Big Five Personality Test

Interactive personality measuring the big five personality traits.

openpsychometrics.org

The big five personality traits are the best accepted and most commonly used model of personality in academic psychology. If you take a college course in personality psychology, this is what you will learn about. The big five come from the statistical study of responses to personality items. Using a technique called factor analysis researchers can look at the responses of people to hundreds of personality items and ask the question "what is the best was to summarize an individual?". This has been done with many samples from all over the world and the general result is that, while there seem to be unlimited personality variables, five stand out from the pack in terms of explaining a lot of a persons answers to questions about their personality: extraversion, neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness to experience. The big-five are not associated with any particular test, a variety of measures have been developed to measure them. This test uses the Big-Five Factor Markers from the International Personality Item Pool, developed by Goldberg (1992).

Predicting high neuroticism (low ES, on this test) and low extraversion for SS members . What I'm pretty curious about is openness (intellect/imagination here).

If you want to know more about the test (like the methodology used to derive it, its predictive uses, etc.) this is a good article.

Results summary

Your results from the IPIP Big Five Factor Markers are in the table below. The table contains a raw score and also a percentile, what percent of other people who have taken this test that you score higher than.

 

[ma0]

Extroversion: 6 (checks out)

Emotional stability: 30 (dunno about that one) (wait is that high or not i can't tell)

Agreeableness: 7

Conscientiousness: 9

Intellect/Imagination: 93 (holy shit?!)


I wasn't entirely sure how to read these, so I just grabbed them from the score percentile, which was a bit odd since the bar for emotional stability was shorter than the one for agreeableness, despite the ES percentile being larger(?)

I would've just sent a screenshot if I could, but SaSu seems to be having a mental breakdown when it comes to uploading images right now...

 

[derpyderpins]

Uploading pictures still broken, I guess.

I got (percentile):

Extroversion: 42
Emotional stability: 39
Agreeableness: 62
Conscientiousness: 4
Intellect/Imagination: 91

 

[Luminous_]

Extroversion: 33

Emotional stability: 4

Agreeableness: 56

Conscientiousness: 1

Intellect/Imagination: 53

Seems about right for me, I love doing these kinda tests ! I'm insanely neurotic but I also like to socialise so long as I'm comfortable with the people I'm talking to, if not I'm all over the place and sweaty and stumbling over my words lol

You'll fit right in here

The bars are related to how many points you got on the test itself while the score percentile tells you how you compare to the average person. So this probably means that the average person scores more points on agreeableness than ES. You were right to post the percentiles—the scores/bars on their own don't say much.

I'd forgotten the images were broken. That sucks. I will be bumping this when they're fixed lol.

Ohhh, see I suffer from a severe condition called fucking idiot syndrome.

Thx for telling me how it worked though, glad I actually posted it right.

Feed me more… mroe tests….. moreee

 

[Namelesa]

Extroversion: 33

Emotional stability: 2 (oooooffffff)

Agreeableness: 89

Conscientiousness: 5

Intellect/Imagination: 79

(Ugh, why won't it quote the second part???? Whatever...)


I guess skepticism fits for me, competitiveness though? Absolutely not.

I felt like an idiot and deleted it shamefully bc I saw your other quote w aergia and realised you meant the correlation to the bars and the actual numbers not misunderstanding the meanings of each category

 

[platypus77]

Checks out.
I'm a paranoid droid.

 

[ma0]

Emotional stability: 2 (oooooffffff)

Think about it this way: You scored 2 entire emotional stability points! That's more than one!

No? Not helping? Ok sorry...

I think the reason that its not 0 is cause i said slight disagree to if you get easily irradiated. Only way to actual make me angry is by being pro-lifer otherwise I very rarely get angry.

If it makes you feel any better, I shamefully deleted my quote after I saw that you shamefully deleted yours.

It does feels like a suicide pact #inthistogether

 

[fairytale]

Extroversion: 11
Emotional stability: 96
Agreeableness: 0
Conscientiousness: 12
Intellect/Imagination: 70

 

[EvisceratedJester]

This is arguably the worst version of the test you can find online. This one has much more detailed and easier-to-read results.

Indeed, the explanations are way more richer.
But results are somewhat similar.

 

[Forveleth]

Ok, look. I know the Myers Briggs thing is all unscientific and total bullshit, but it marked me as a hardcore INFP-T at the ripe old age of 12 and EVERY SINGLE PERSONALITY TEST I take says the EXACT SAME THING!

Extroversion - 1 (I),
Emotional Stability - 16 (T)
Agreeableness - 35 (F), I used to score way higher on this when I was younger, before I got angry at life in general
Conscientiousness - 93 (N but not really, this is an extreme INFP trait though)
Intellect/Imagination - 76 (P)

God fucking damn it I cannot get away from this label!

 

[GalacticWarrior777]

Extroversion is at 29% for me
Emotional stability - 1% (dunno what that means, does that mean im unstable emotionally?)
Agreeableness - 40%
Conscientiousness - 57%
Intellect/imagination - 52%

I guess It's not that bad???

Mine too, even the neuropsychological tests I was submitted by a professional match.

It's more like a tool for self awareness, it can change according to your current mind state too.

The human psyche is still very unknown, my fear is that once we figure out how to accurately measure and simulate this kind of thing it will be probably turned into a tool of mass manipulation.

There's already research on the matter that claims it can simulate peoples behavior by feeding survey data like the big five with accuracy of about 80%

AI will probably be the last straw in the downfall of society.

Extroversion is at 29% for me

There's no good or bad I guess, each trait indicates affinities in one area or another, but that's about it

Thanks. The reason I chose the one I did was because it was the only one I knew of that showed score percentiles which seem a lot more salient/reliable than any raw scores. I guess that one could be more useful for individuals, though.

Dude, these are online tests. You shouldn't be going to them for reliability nor should you even be taking them seriously at all. It's not like administering this test in a controlled setting or something. You take them for fun.

paranoid.... aaandroid...
O: 95
C: 10
E: 96
A: 51
N: 92

Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism, respectively. For Neuroticism I just inversed the count (100 - 8 = 92.)

I am intensely neurotic and intensely extraverted person. I'm very sociable but an intense autist as well; perhaps paradoxically. Hope this contributes well for the count.

If the tests shouldn't be taken seriously then the one that was linked by the OP should be fine for them to take. It's all about fun.

I'm not taking them seriously though. I didn't say they'd be reliable in an absolute sense, just that score percentiles contain more information and are therefore more reliable relative to the raw scores that other online (and thus also unreliable in this view) tests would give.

 

[kaleido777]

yeah, thats about right

Although can not be considered reliable by any measure.
It usually correlates well with peoples self image, correlation isn't causation but it's quite intriguing.
And I'm extremely curious to see how this thread evolves given it's a community of suicidals with thousands of users.
I'm tempted to do run some crawlers on the forum to quantify words, topics and all kinds of aggregations to create a thread "SaSu in numbers".
To present you charts and insights, the numbers might tell us, what do you think?

The methodology used to derive this (Big 5) framework actually relied partly on self-assessment questionnaires (it was observed that those results correlated highly with the reports taken from the individual's friends/acquaintances). So, yes, I don't think doing it under the auspices of some institution or the other would significantly change results.

I think that's an interesting idea! Are there any particular questions you're interested in answering/topics or words you're interested in investigating?

I do wish more data collection was done on here although I'm too lazy to make an attempt to do so myself. I don't engage much with method talk around here (and don't want this thread to devolve into that) but it does seem to me that, for instance, certain oft-repeated claims on here regarding SN have little empirical basis (eg. the idea that fasting is necessary when there have been accidental lethal SN poisonings). At some point I thought it would be a good idea to collate data from accounts of SN attempts on here to attempt to assess such ideas.

A lot of members scoff at the idea that SS should even attempt to improve its public perception but I find it frustrating how it's misrepresented in the media because I do think there are people out there who'd be willing to engage with the site's philosophies in good faith—but anyone who's only familiar with the mainstream view would naturally lump it in with the other quasi-dark-web sites like KF and the incel forum (i.e. cesspools of hate with little to no redeeming qualities). There is a certain study that's been linked to here, that iirc evaluated tens of thousands of interactions on here and found no suicide encouragement. i think similar kinds of data collection could be helpful in portraying SS more objectively.

 

[whitetaildeer]

i had completely forgotten about big five until i saw this thread! i remember it being a lot more scientific(?) than mbti. this is my first time trying an actual test. thanks for posting this.
