Big 5 Personality Traits

Psychological researchers often define personality in terms of five core traits, which can be thought of as stable dispositions that drive behavior. The five-factor model of personality encompasses these basic traits:

- openness to experience
- conscientiousness
- extraversion-introversion
- agreeableness
- neuroticism

The traits, often referred to as the "Big 5," are summed up by the acronyms OCEAN or CANOE. Every individual manifests each of the five broad dimensions of personality to one degree or another, and the infinite variety of ways individuals differ in how the traits are expressed is what makes the study of personality endlessly fascinating. Using questionnaire-based testing, psychologists measure the degree to which each of the traits is individually manifest.

The five-factor model is used to help understand and predict relationships between personality traits and success in social, academic, and professional circumstances. The model has been criticized for its limitations with respect to the number of personality traits evaluated and for the fact that it is a data-driven model and not based on a psychological theory. Proponents of the five-factor model argue that it delivers consistent results and that such a description of personality must come before, not after, a theory of personality.

Don't go looking for friends. Find yourself, and what you want, and live within that, and your friends will already be there.

I spent a lot of my life trying to fit in and find my crowd when I should have been trying to find myself

[ignisninja]

I really appreciate and respect Peterson giving credit to his student like that.

The sooner you know your traits and accept them (along with the limitations) the happier you are in life.

When building a team I like to get people with vastly different traits and strengths and show them what they can accomplish together by using each strength together.

4:40 "The advantage of working with a conscientious person is that they're gonna work like mad....the disadvantage is that they're gonna work like mad.."
Haha....that's right.

The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking and so are we. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking

I just love this man. Thank you for sharing.

[rachelring]

[oumarsountal]

I strongly suggested we need more people like you

Learned about this guy from a random chat room and he’s a genius !!

[ErikaK]

We are all unique and different but we tend to strive better when we surround ourselves with those who have more similar personality traits :) we have better and stronger relationships ♡

LISTEN to this man BEFORE you find yourself in a quagmire. Truly.

Become your own helping hand. Find another that does the same, and you'll be helping yourselves as well as each other and you'll develop a proclivity for moral guidance and harmonius balance in order and chaos, safety and strength, and emphasis and compassion for the individual as well as for the wider community. That's what we need when couples start families and have children in my opinion. It sets them up more well and healthy and respectable for the kids and adults alike and opens up the door for further moral and practical knowledge and competency.

I wish all teachers were so enthusiast on what they taught because it's so engaging and interesting this way with the passion and makes you want to pay as much attention as the enthusiastic one. Just imagine how much education would change in contrast to that.

Thanks for actually posting videos related to the title👌👌👌

Opposites may attract ... But they can never last. Companionship can only really come from similarity.
