Answer 1

PSY 100 extra credit

Participating in the survey, made me realise of what my current status is. The survey is well defined and organised to understand a person's personality as it focuses on the smallest things of a person's perception, that might be unattended or ignored by many, if they do not have a good self realisation. It asks you aspects of what you would have done when you're stressed, how a person perceives stress, what perception do they have about oneself, the importance of family and friends in their life as well as their contributions in keeping you calm and composed in situations that actually demand a great value of both mental and emotional strength. The survey also asks about questions such as are you tolerant to your own flaws, such questions makes the survey taker think of what their reaction would be to a situation in which they are pointed to at being wrong and how would they react. Honestly, the questions designed are something that people neglect as a part of their nature, which is intrinsic but hidden. When answering the questions, a person gets to know about his level of dedication and commitment towards the task taken up by them which also gives them an insight to their professional aptitude.
