1. Name: Wendy Staves
Date of Testing: 04/01/15 Date of Report: 07/07/15
Primary Country of Residence: United States
The psychological testing utilized in this evaluation involves items with face
validity; the items on the inventories are not disguised. Consequently, these
brief assessment tools may be susceptible to confounding variables. It is
important to note that the testing used may be influenced by the following
uncontrolled variables:
a) Profound cultural differences
b) Language difficulties, misunderstanding of terms
c) Efforts to avoid extreme responding (this will result in regression
towards the mean-a majority of middle range scores)
d} Efforts to present an image of oneself in a particular light, usually
favorable (this will result in distorted test results)
For example, people may avoid endorsing test items that might
portray their honest desire to be controlling or critical of others.
2. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a test of personality
styles that describes sixteen different personality types. The
questions on the Indicator help the individual learn about
preferences in four separate categories, each comprising two
opposite poles.. The four categories describe, where the
examinee prefers to focus attention, Extraversion (E) or
Introversion (I); the way information is gathered, Sensing (S)
or Intuition (N); the way decisions are made, Thinking (T) or
Feeling (F); and how the examinee is oriented toward the outer
world, Judging (J) or Perceiving (P).
Wendy is classified as ESTJ (Extraversion, Sensing,
Thinking, Judging) or someone who likes to organize projects,
operations, procedures and people. She then acts to get things
done. She can be expected to live by a set of clear standards
and beliefs, and makes a systematic effort to follow these. She
will expect the same of others. Wendy will value competence,
efficiency, and results.
Normally she takes an objective approach to problem
solving, and she is usually tough when a situation requires it.
She uses her thinking to organize her life and work, and has
little patience with confusion, inefficiency, or half-way measures.
In this way she is logical, analytical, objectively critical, as well
as decisive, clear and assertive.
Wendy focuses on the present-on what is real and actual.
She will apply and adapt relevant past experiences to deal with
problems, and she prefers jobs where results are immediate,
visible and tangible. She is likely to be practical, realistic, and
matter of fact, as well as systematic and pragmatic.
She is an excellent administrator because she understands
systems and logistics. She can project the steps needed to
accomplish a task, foresee potential problems, assign
responsibilities, and marshal necessary resources. Wendy will
cover all bases, leave no loose ends, and get things done on
time. When she sees things are not working, she will plan and
act to correct the situation. Otherwise, she prefers proven
procedures and systems. Her orientation is to tasks, actions and
the bottom line.
TEST RESULTS:
3. Because she naturally devises systems, procedures, and
schedules, others rely on Wendy to take charge and get things
done. Others may find her overpowering, as she can be so
certain about how things should be. She is clear and
straightforward in her communication. Therefore, people seldom
have to wonder where she stands on things.
Wendy can be quite gregarious and generally will enjoy
interacting with people, especially around tasks, games,
traditions, and family activities. She takes relationship roles
seriously and fulfills them responsibly. Others will usually see
her as conscientious and dependable, as well as decisive,
outspoken and self-confident.
