About Personality Test

Personality Test personality discovering

"Personality testing refers to techniques that are used to accurately and consistently measure personality. Personality is something that we informally assess and describe every day. When we talk about ourselves and others, we frequently refer to different characteristics of an individual's personality. Psychologists do much the same thing when they assess personality, but on a much more systematic and scientific level. How Are Personality Tests Used? For assessing theories To look at changes in personality To evaluate the effectiveness of therapy Diagnosing psychological problems Screening job candidates Personality tests are also sometimes used in forensic settings to conduct risk assessments, establish competence and in child custody disputes. Types of Personality Assessment There are two basic types of personality tests: self-report inventories and projective tests. Self-report inventories involve having test-takers read questions and then rate how well the question or statement applies to them. One of the most common self-report inventories is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, or MMPI. Projective tests involve presenting the test-taker with a vague scene, object, or scenario and then asking them to give their interpretation of the test item. One well-known example of a projective test is the Rorschach Inkblot Test. Potential Problems with Personality Testing Each of these approaches has its own unique set of strengths, weaknesses, and limitations. The greatest benefit of self-report inventories is that they can be standardized and use established norms. They are also relatively easy to administer and have much higher reliability and validity than projective tests."
