Introduction Over the quarter, I have completed 14 self-assessments that have opened my eyes to who I perceive myself to be and how this can affect my future career path. All 14 of these assessments focused on an aspect of my personality that is embedded and seen in how I view situations and how I conduct my daily life. I took the self-assessments very seriously and asked my family members and current housemates for feedback throughout this process. Some of these assessments confirmed my personal thoughts on the matter and few of the assessments opposed and revealed new qualities about myself that I had not thought of. Overall, this was a revolutionary experience and I would suggest thing process to anyone who wants a clear vision of him/herself. Four Important Self Assessments The first assessment that I thought was incredibly useful was the Myer Briggs assessment that we did as a class the first week …show more content…
I am not a very confident person. I am constantly reassuring myself and double checking everything to avoid any issues. My score on this test was a 28/40, which was a moderate scoring. I thought this was a very accurate score for this self-assessment since I am constantly reassuring myself that I have the knowledge and skills to perform. I struggle with anxiety on a daily basis and this assessment shows how these worries affect my self-efficacy and confidence. Knowing and seeing my score on this assessment has taught me that self-efficacy can be altered. This does not mean that I am stuck with moderate self-efficacy, I am able to make a change and raise my scores. Instead of making me feel worse, this test proved that I do not need to have high self-efficacy to overcome challenges and take risks. My ability for self-regulation is very accurate now that I know that I have to work a little harder to have the confidence to set goals that may be slightly out of
To verify the first indicator, a survey will be used. Surveys can gather large amounts of data, and can be administered through mail, e-mail, or face-to-face. As this survey is in the process of being developed, it is essential that the survey undergoes testing to ensure the survey is measuring what it needs to measure. A method that will be utilised will be a survey with a rating scale used as the tool to measure service user satisfaction. The Likert scale is commonly used to measure a person’s attitudes or behaviours, using answer choice that ranges from one end to another (Kuma-Tan et al. 2007, p. 550) (appendix 1). A Likert scale survey can identify the different levels of the service user’s opinions about the staff’s cultural competence (Mellor & Moore 2014, p. 369). The survey will indicate the service user’s satisfaction, identify if further training is required, and improvements.
This makes a lot f sense to me. I have spent most of my life depending on myself, It is very hard for me t ask for help. The second lowest assessment score for me was #5 Gaining Self Awareness. I tend to disagree with this score. I know I need improvement in this area, but I feel I am quite self aware. In the past I do not think I was very self aware, I did not realize why I would react to situations and people the way I did, but now Im more aware of those things. The third assessment I scored lowest in was #6 Adopting A Life Long Learning. I also tend to disagree with this one a bit as well. I am always learning, always wanting to learn about
This assessment shows its strength by the fact that I feel as though it matches with my life. Through this, I have gain insight to the fact that I could be helpful but almost to the degree in which I could be harmful to me. While reading the description, I was proud at some parts and discourage at others. However, I do have the understanding that every personality-type as a flaw. This assessment was useful in terms of gaining insight to my motivation, strengths and weakness of my personality. This can be a useful tool to use with clients.
I had the advantage to take numerous self-assessments tests to learn something about myself, that could benefit me in my personal growth and career aspirations. I feel that my self- assessments were very important to me because it had shown areas of where I am lacking in my abilities and empowering my strengths. My self- assessments were based on personal growth and career growth and my learning style of auditory. The personal self-assessments included, Jungian Typology (personality type), Productivity (time management), Locus of Control (behaviors and attitudes), Burnout Risk (state of emotional, mental and physical exhaustion) and a Stress Scale (a mental or emotional strain). The career growth self-assessments included, Communications
During my Self-Assessment test that I took on Goddessflight.net and Humanmetrics.com it score me as an Extravert, Intuitive, Feeling/sensing and Judging/perceiving. Taking the assessment tests help me understand what job market would be great and how well I fit in with people when I get to work with them. Upon hiring they would like to see how well you work because they would like to see how well you work together.
Everyday we ask ourselves, “Did I make the right decision?” Whether it is in regards to family, friends or co-workers we constantly do self assessments. Self-assessment is defined as a process through which individuals gain knowledge about themselves. This includes information about their likes and dislikes as well as their reactions to specific situations. By knowing more about themselves, individuals can be able to determine the work situations and occupations that are most appropriate for them. There are several lessons that can be learnt from self-assessment in relation to individual decision making. This research paper will examine reveal the lesions learned from self assessment. We will observe of the influence of the American
What do you believe are the primary purposes of community organizations, social service agencies or other government agencies?
The first assessment I took was the Self Identity test. I found myself to be independent, stubborn, to go with the flow, judgmental, a daughter an older sister, and a best friend. While taking this test I had tried to not think about the bad qualities in myself, but as I am thinking about who I am to some people
Self-assessments can be beneficial, as they allow one to better understand how they communicate and how they form relationships. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, the Johari Window, and the pillow method are examples of these evaluations. In this paper, I will use these three self-assessments to illustrate the ways in which I communicate and interact with people.
According to Conte, Weiner, and Plutchik, the average score for most people, regardless of age, is 8.5. My score shocked me a little because I would think I worry about death a lot but consider to this questionnaire I am not that concern. I scored a 3, it was lower than the average score that these researchers found. I believe my score was low because I am deciding to make plans for my future and if I decide to get marry and have children the will not have to worry about anything except live their life and work hard. I want to get all of my debt settled and pay out all the bills so that my family would not have to worry. I do not believe anyone would forget about me because there will always be photos and videos to remember me by whether it
My Personal Assessment gives the results of several self-assessments that I took along with a brief summary of these results. These assessments include: TELSA Self Assessment, Keirsey
I chose to assess myself positively in all of the categories because I felt that I did a good job of thoroughly responding to and completing each of the requirements. I came to the discussion with a several page response to each of the four questions that I posed in relation to the text, complete with a highlighted and annotated copy of the story to use as a reference point. During the discussion itself, I referred to how the specific actions of each of the characters in the story might be interpreted and related in a more broad sense to the meaning of the work as a whole. For example, I spoke at one point about how the actions of the wife seemed inconsistent with the continuous importance placed on the value of honor within the story, as her
Understanding the personalities and characteristics of individuals can help organizations to understand the organizational behavior factors that exist within their organization. Personalities often dictate how individuals behave and think. After using the Project 2 self-assessment, I learned a lot of new information about my personality. By translating the scores that I received it helps to make clear why I do the things I do. As a result, this information can help to make me a better employee, co-worker, and manager in the future.
The first assessment, the Big Five personality test, really helped me understand the strengths in my personality. I was able to find an online assessment test that actually gave me more in-depth explanation for my test results, which was very helpful to better understand what I scored. My begining results taught me a lot about myself, starting with the openness to experience section. This section showed me that I am not close minded, nor am I open to new experiences, I am right in the middle, which is pretty true, because I like to pick and choose what new experiences I want to endure. Moving on to the conscientious section, I learned that I am very meticulous, where I like to stay organized and finish my work thoroughly, which is very true, I just never noticed it. The next section of the assessment
The results of my self assessment were pretty accurate to what I know about myself. I have strong intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. I maintain strong relationships with others and think deeply about my life choices, goals, and ambitions. The only score that I thought would be higher was my musical score. I can play a musical instrument and I enjoy listening to music, but I don’t like to sing or play for others. Thinking back to my childhood, I was a linguistic learner. I followed directions well, if someone modeled how to do something, I could follow it and explain it back. I liked talking with someone personally to understand different concepts. The older I got, I was able to adapt to how my teachers’ taught. I had one teacher who loved using bodily-kinesthetic activities, I had other teachers who loved to sing and use logical-mathematical thinking. If I didn’t adjust to their styles of teaching, I wouldn’t have been successful in their class. I believe learning patterns can be altered because my learning pattern was altered. I’ve learned many different things from teachers who have different teaching styles. Teaching is an art and all teachers should use different teaching styles. Having a wide variety of teachers with different teaching styles made me a well rounded learner.
