Big five personality trait survey: "Where I fit"

Openness

I consider myself to be very open to new experiences. I like to travel to new places and to interact with people from different backgrounds. I enjoy listening to new types of music; seeing different types of movies and television programs; and meeting new people. When envisioning my future, I do not believe that my life is likely to resemble that of my parent's or even the life of my childhood friends. I am very future-oriented. I also am extremely frustrated with people who are close-minded and judgmental. I do not see the world in terms of black and white. I would say that I rank fairly high in the attribute of openness.

Extroversion

I consider myself to be moderately extroverted. I enjoy spending time with other people, and like social events like going to parties and going out with my friends. However, while I do often feel as if my batteries are 'recharged' through downtime with others, I also need time alone. If I do not have some private space, to be with my thoughts and to do as I please (whether this involves working out, listening to music, or just taking a walk) I can feel just as stressed and unhappy as if I am left alone for an extended period of time. Thus I think I rank in the middle, on a scale of 'extroversion.'

Of all the five attributes, I think evaluating individuals on the trait of extroversion is perhaps the most difficult. Some people are very extroverted and social amongst their small circle of friends and family, but are very uncomfortable in large groups of people. Other people enjoy performing and speaking in public but are very uncomfortable speaking to others on a one-to-one basis. I also know people who are very socially adept, even though they tend to prefer to be alone when doing certain activities, like working out, working, or pursuing certain hobbies. My desire to be around people often changes, depending on my mood and the other things going on in my life.

Conscientiousness
