Step 3. Write and Reflect.
Write a 3-5 page summary of the results of the personality test and discuss whether or not you agree with them. Be sure to address the following in your paper:
The two assessments you selected and why
The results from each of the assessments
Your analysis of the results and whether you believe the two tests (or personality assessments in general) to be accurate
The connection between the two assessments and personality theories as discussed in the text
The pros and cons of personality assessment and whether they are overall advantageous
