Evaluate Personality Traits and Measurements
Not what you're looking for?
I need help in selecting six online personality tests that have been reviewed by scholars. With the six tests I need to create a chart (which I can create), the chart needs to:
Name of Test, Author(s),
Publication Date,
For what is the test used,
How does it claim to measure the variable (true-false questions),
What kind of score is provided, Do an online or MMY search for reviews and summarize the review or explain if a review cannot be found,
Would you take this test (explain),
Should this test be considered a personality test,
With which of the theories you have studied is the test compatible.
I need this information to incorporate into my own online assessment and provide a brief overview.
Thank you in advance for your help.
