As you are rating yourself, you are encouraged to rate another person. By rating someone else, you may receive a more accurate assessment of your own personality. Also, you will be given a personality profile for the person you rate, which will allow you to compare yourself to this person on each of five basic personality dimensions. Try to rate someone you know well, such as a close friend, coworker, or family member.

If you would like to compare your personality to another person's, please select how you are related to the other person.
