Inspired by a student presentation last month on introvert and extrovert personality types, this week we're trying out some psychological tests.
Online tests in English are a language challenge and introduce new vocabulary and concepts.
It will be interesting to see if our personalities change when using a second language.
We need to evaluate the tests themselves - do they reveal anything about ourselves? Is there any scientific basis to them?
Finally, there are issues around privacy - some tests want your email address. We will use services like nada or TempMail to avoid giving away personal information to third parties.
Here are some tests to try out:
Jung Typology Test based on Carl Jung’s and Isabel Briggs Myers’ personality type theory.
IPIP Big-Five Factor Markers based on the best accepted and most commonly used model of personality in academic psychology.
Open Extended Jungian Type Scales 1.2 - a highly accurate alternative to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.
When you've done a test, learn more about the different types of personality being described by these indicators:

The Five Factor Model - the easiest introduction to the IPIP big 5 markers I could find.
