Scale Description

Extroversion - introversion

Describing a typical extrovert, the author notes his sociability and individual’s orientation to the outside, a wide circle of acquaintances, the need for contacts. He acts under the influence of the moment, impulsive, quick-tempered, carefree, optimistic, good-natured, cheerful. Prefers movement and action, tends to aggressiveness. Feelings and emotions do not have strict control, prone to risky actions. It is not always possible to rely on it.

A typical introvert is a calm, shy, introjective person, prone to self-analysis. Restrained and distant from all but close friends. He plans and ponders his actions in advance, does not trust the sudden prompting, is serious about making decisions, he loves order in everything. Controls his feelings, it is not easy to ruffle. It has pessimism, highly values ​​moral standards.

Neuroticism

Characterizes emotional stability or instability (emotional stability or instability). Neuroticism, according to some sources, is related to the lability of the nervous system. Emotional stability is a feature that expresses the preservation of organized behavior, situational focus in ordinary and stressful situations. It is characterized by maturity, excellent adaptation, the absence of great tension, anxiety, and also a tendency toward leadership and sociability. Neuroticism is expressed in extreme nervousness, instability, poor adaptation, tendency to a quick change of moods (lability), feelings of guilt and anxiety, anxiety, depressive reactions, distraction of attention, instability in stressful situations. Neuroticism corresponds to emotionality, impulsivity; unevenness in contacts with people, volatility of interests, self-doubt, pronounced sensitivity, impressionability, tendency to irritability. A neurotic personality is characterized by inadequately strong reactions to the stimuli that trigger them. Individuals with high levels of neuroticism in adverse stressful situations may develop neurosis.

Circle Aysenk.

Explanation for the drawing "Circle of Eysenk":

Sanguine = stable + extraverted

Phlegmatic = stable + introverted

Melancholic = unstable + introverted

Choleric = unstable + extraverted

The presentation of results on the scales of extraversion and neuroticism is carried out using a coordinate system. Interpretation of the results obtained is carried out on the basis of the psychological characteristics of the individual, corresponding to one or another square of the coordinate model, taking into account the degree of manifestation of individual psychological properties and the degree of reliability of the data obtained.

Drawing data from the physiology of higher nervous activity, Aysenck hypothesizes that, according to Pavlov, the strong and weak types are very close to the extraverted and introverted personality types. The nature of introversion and extraversion is seen in the innate properties of the central nervous system, which provide a balance in the processes of arousal and inhibition.

Thus, using the survey data on the scales of extraversion, introversion and neuroticism, one can derive indices of personality temperament according to Pavlov’s classification, which described four classical types: sanguine (according to the main properties of the central nervous system is characterized as strong, balanced, mobile), choleric (strong, unbalanced, agile), phlegmatic (strong, balanced, inert), melancholic (weak, unbalanced, inert).

"Clean" sanguine person(high extraversion and low neuroticism)  quickly adapts to new conditions, quickly converges with people, is sociable. Feelings easily arise and change, emotional experiences, as a rule, are shallow. Facial expressions are rich, agile, expressive. Somewhat restless, needs new impressions, insufficiently regulates his impulses, does not know how to strictly adhere to the established schedule, life, system in work. In this regard, can not successfully carry out the case, requiring equal expenditure of forces, long-term and methodical tension, perseverance, sustained attention, patience. In the absence of serious goals, deep thoughts, creative activity, superficiality and impermanence are developed.

Choleric  (high extraversion and high neuroticism)  characterized by increased excitability, intermittent actions. It is characterized by sharpness and swiftness of movements, strength, impulsiveness, a bright expression of emotional experiences. Due to lack of balance, being fascinated by work, he is inclined to act with all his might, to deplete more than he should. Having public interests, temperament manifests in initiative, energy, principles. In the absence of spiritual life, the choleric temperament often manifests itself in irritability, efficiency, incontinence, hot temper, and inability to control oneself under emotional circumstances.

Phlegmatic person (high introvesiya and high neuroticism) characterized by a relatively low level of activity behavior, new forms of which are developed slowly, but are persistent. Possesses slowness and calmness in actions, facial expressions and speech, evenness, constancy, depth of feelings and moods. Persistent and persistent "worker of life", he rarely loses his temper, is not inclined to affect, having calculated his strength, brings the matter to the end, is even in relationships, moderately sociable, does not like to talk in vain. Saves power, waste them not wasting. Depending on the conditions, in some cases the phlegmatic person may be characterized by “positive” features - endurance, depth of thoughts, constancy, thoroughness, etc., in others - lethargy, indifference to the surroundings, laziness and lack of will, poverty and weakness of emotions, propensity to perform just the usual actions.

Melancholic  (high introversion and high neuroticism).  His reaction often does not correspond to the strength of the stimulus, there is a depth and stability of the feelings with a weak expression. It is difficult for him to concentrate on something for a long time. Strong effects often cause a prolonged inhibitory reaction in melancholic (hands fall). Restraint and muffled motility and speech, shyness, timidity, indecision are characteristic of him. Under normal conditions, melancholic is a deep, informative person, can be a good worker, successfully cope with life tasks. Under unfavorable conditions, it can turn into a closed, fearful, anxious, vulnerable person, prone to difficult internal experiences of such life circumstances that do not deserve it at all.

Personality Tests

Personality tests are psychodiagnostic techniques aimed at assessing the emotional-volitional components of an individual's mental activity (relationships, motivation, interests, emotions, behavior) in certain social situations. With the help of such tests, stable individual features of a person are identified that determine his actions. Conventionally, personality tests on the subject and purpose of psychological diagnosis can be divided into three large groups.

TO the first of these are multifactorial personality questionnaires,  giving a variety of comprehensive assessment of the degree of development of psychological personality traits. These include the 16-factor personal questionnaire R. Cattell (16PF), the Minnesota Multi-Factor (Multidisciplinary) Questionnaire (MMPI), some personal questionnaires by G. Ayzenko, etc.

The second group includes projective test methods.developed on the basis of no specific incentives. The subjects are invited to interpret, supplement, develop these incentives. For example, to interpret the content of the plot image, complete the unfinished sentences, give an interpretation of the uncertain outlines of ink stains, etc.

The third group consists of test methods that identify certain stable personality characteristics.  (temperament, individual characterological personality traits, motivational and emotional manifestations, etc.).

Multifactorial personality questionnaires.

Multifactorial personality questionnaires 16PF and MMPI are associated with the names of the creators of the theory of hell - R. Cattell, G. Olport and G. Ayzen. R. Cattell in the process of experimental research of personality introduced the method of factor analysis. He singled out, described and examined a number of actually existing factors (traits) of a personality. At present, the theory of traits created by R. Cattell is one of the main general psychological theories of personality. According to this theory, people differ from each other in terms of the set and degree of development of their separate independent features. The use of factor analysis is reduced to the necessary and sufficient minimum of various indicators for assessing the personality obtained as a result of testing, interviewing, life observations and self-analysis. In the process of working on the consciousness of the multifactorial personal questionnaire 16PF. R. Cattell identified 16 different personal factors. Each of them received a double name, characterizing the degree of development - strong and weak. The 16PF multifactorial personality questionnaire consists of 105 questions to which the subject answers, choosing one of three alternatives. In a special form for answers, the subject marks the selected alternatives for each of the 105 questions. At the end of the test, points are calculated for each of the 16 personal factors. In accordance with the results obtained, the profile of the subject's personality is drawn. Test data is analyzed and interpreted. Among other personality questionnaires that are widely used in the West to study the personality, the implementation of the typological approach in psychological research, it should be noted the Minnesota Multidisciplinary Personality Questionnaire (MMPI). S.Hatuem, J.Mackinley, G.Olport were engaged in the development of this questionnaire. The merit of G.Olport is the promotion of a postulate on the exclusivity of a person - each person is unique and individual, is the carrier of a peculiar combination of qualities and needs (features). The set of these features makes up the core of personality, gives it exclusivity and uniqueness. On the basis of the MMPI test, a personality profile is drawn, a factor analysis of the test data is carried out, and factors, indicators of extroversion and neuroticism are presented. The Minnesota Multidisciplinary Personal Questionnaire (MMI) is widely used in psychodiagnostic studies in Russia. In particular, much work on the adaptation of the questionnaire in the 1980s was carried out at the Leningrad Psychoneurological Institute. VM Bekhtereva, as well as Moscow psychologists. It should be borne in mind that the characteristics of the application of the MMPI-test have a certain influence on the age, sex, education and attitude of the subjects to the testing procedure.

Personal questionnaires G. Ayzenkodesigned to diagnose three basic dimensions of personality: extraversion - introversion, neutralism and psychoticism. Extroversion is a characteristic of the individual psychological differences of a person, the extreme poles of which correspond to the orientation of the individual or to the phenomena of his own subjective world (introversion). Neuroticism is a concept that is used to characterize a person with emotional instability, increased anxiety, poor health, autonomic disorders. This factor is also biopolar. One of its poles is characterized by emotional stability, the other by emotional instability. Emotional stability is inherent in sanguine and phlegmatic, emotional instability in choleric and melancholic. Neuroticism, according to G. Eisenko, is not identical with neurosis. However, in individuals with high rates of this scale in adverse conditions, neurosis can develop. According to G. Eisenko, high rates of extraversion and neuroticism correspond to the diagnosis of hysteria, and high rates of introversion and neuroticism correspond to anxiety and reactivity of depression. According to one of the questionnaires of G. Ayzenk, one can determine the subject's place in the two-factor model of extroversion and neutroticism, as well as the type of temperament. G. Eisenk   developed two versions of this technique ( BUT and AT ), which differ only in the text of the questionnaire. The presence of two forms allows the psychologist to conduct repeated research, eliminating the possibility of remembering previously given answers.

Interpretation of the results of the Personal Questionnaire G. Eysenck (EPI temperament test. Aysenck self-assessment diagnostics. Temperament determination method)

When analyzing the results, the following guidelines should be followed.

Extraversion:

more than 19 - a bright extrovert

more than 15 - extrovert

12 - the average value

less than 9 - introvert,

less than 5 - deep introvert.

Neuroticism:

more than 19 - a very high level of neuroticism,

more than 14 - a high level of neuroticism,

9 - 13 - the average value

less than 7 - a low level of neuroticism.

Lying:

more than 4 - insincerity in the answers, which also testifies to some demonstrative behavior and orientation of the subject to social approval,

less than 4 - the norm.

Projective test techniques.

The personal are the so-called projective  tests, the beginning of which was laid by the German psychologist E. Krepelin, when he transferred the experimental psychological research to a psychiatric clinic. This group of techniques is intended for the diagnosis of personality. The respondents are asked to respond to certain situations (to interpret the content of the plot picture - thematic apperception test; complete the unfinished sentences or statements of one of the characters in the story picture - Rosenzweig test; interpret uncertain outlines, such as ink spots in the Rorschach test; draw a person or a tree - test Makhovera, etc.). In their essence, projective techniques can be referred to subjective methods of expert evaluation. Indeed, the projective test with a free answer, in which the instruction and test stimuli are uncertain, allows the choice of the answer to be very wide. This choice is determined by the structure of the subject's subjective experience, his attitudes and motives. The answer itself can be represented, for example, by complete drawings or texts, the choice of relevant objects or the composition of certain structures. Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) also applies to projective methods of personality research. It was created by H. Morgan and G. Murray as far back as 1935. Subsequently, the technique becomes known as G. Murray. In TAT, the plot pictures are presented in the form of certain situations that allow ambiguous interpretation of them. In the course of the experiment, the subjects in a certain sequence are presented with a certain number of subject paintings selected from standard TAT batteries depending on the gender and age of the subjects. One TAT battery is intended for testing only women, the other is only for men, and the third one is for boys and girls up to 14 years. There is a special test used for any test subjects. The subjects are invited to come up with a story-story about what has led to the situation depicted in the pictures, what is happening now, what the characters think, what they feel, how this situation can end. the stories of the subjects are recorded and interpreted. After completion of the survey, an interview is conducted in order to obtain additional data on the subject, to clarify the logical inconsistencies and perception errors found in the stories. In composing stories-stories, the subjects rely primarily on their own experiences and unconsciously endow them with characters with which they identify themselves. At the same time, they interpret the multi-valued in the storyline picture in accordance with their past experience. Hence the second name of the test - apperceptive (apperception - the dependence of perception on past experience, on the general content of human mental activity and its individual characteristics). Currently, there are many modifications of TAT: for examining people of different cultural levels, juvenile offenses, elderly and old people, etc. The tests of thematic apperception as one of the types of projective techniques include the so-called drawn apperceptive test (PAT), also developed G. Murray. In a modernized form, an adapted version of a drawn apperceptive test is presented, for example, by L.N. Sobchik with eight subject pictures. The pictures in the agreed form depict the dynamic positions of the relationship of two or three persons. At the same time, neither gender nor age, nor ethnic signs and social statuses of people from the pictures are visible. The location of the figures and their postures make it possible to judge only those conflict situations and life conflicts that arise in the process of mutual relations of people. The poses of the third participant or observer in individual pictures can be interpreted as indifferent, active or compassionate. Subjects are invited to consistently, according to numbering, examine each of the plot pictures, unleash their imagination and briefly describe their individual vision of the positions presented. Especially effective is the use of PAT to identify the motivational orientation of adolescents, their life position. This is achieved not by direct questioning, but indirectly, by using the mechanisms of identification of the subject with any of the depicted characters in the plot pictures, by means of projections of his own experiences. PAT scenes are peculiar pictograms with which the test subject projects his or her vision of a life collision. Of course, compared with the actual thematic apperceptive test, PAT has somewhat less research capabilities. However, due to the simplicity and conciseness of its application, PAT has been successfully used in examining schoolchildren, in vocational guidance work with young people, in the neurosis clinic. To a number of projective techniques applies and pictogram. it is a collection of graphic samples for the study of mediated memorization. The pictogram was first proposed by the Soviet psychologist A.R. Luria in the 30s. and found its use in psychiatry and medical psychology as a diagnostic technique. This method reveals hidden motives, other personal characteristics of the subject (fears, fears, anxiety, etc.). In psychiatry and medical practice, pictograms are used to detect not only memory disorders, but also conceptual thinking disorders in subjects. As is well known, conceptual thinking is characterized by the use of concepts and logical constructions. Icons used for research purposes serve as a means of facilitating memorization. But such tools are not limited to pictograms. Many other coded signals (symbols) are known that facilitate memorization. For example, mnemotechnical techniques that facilitate the memorization of educational material, when individual mnemotechnical elements are denoted by some easily remembered symbols, undergo a certain ordering, rhyme easily perceived and remembered diagrams or drawings. Conventionally, the techniques and methods of psychographic study of handwriting can also be attributed to the projective techniques. In handwriting, individual differences appear especially vividly. NNObozov notes that signatures or autographs can say a lot about a person’s experiences, his secrecy or secrecy, modesty or confidence, emotionality or restraint. Limbs, handwriting has its own stable features, which do not change depending on the human condition, but some other elements are associated with the mood, excitement of the individual. By handwriting, you can identify some characterological features of a person, the type of his personality and temperament. There is a definite connection between handwriting and the psychological deviations of the individual. This circumstance is widely used in forensic science during the graphological examination of letters, facsimiles, and murals in the sub-expert lists in order to identify their handwriting.
