English: Similarities between lower-order factors ...To start with, I would like to summarize my own personality based on the NEO-FFI personality test. According to Weiten (1995) and the results that I have obtained above, I am rather calm, relaxed and have less negative emotionality. Besides, I am a little bit conventional and not too talkative (Weiten, 1995). The results also indicate that I am not curious and creativity (Weiten, 1995).

For the Extraversion, I score 28 and the norm is 29.22, which means that I am slightly lower than the norm. For the Openness to Experience, I score 22 and is lower than the norm by 5.62, which is a quite large amount. For Agreeableness, I score 29 and it is very close to the norm (28.76).

Applying the statistics knowledge, I found that the two factors that I score near to the mean (E and A) have the lowest standard deviation (5.97 and 5.24 respectively). If the standard deviation is smaller, it means that one...
