Looking for a better way to understand yourself and connect with those around you? The Big Five personality theory provides a framework for the major personality traits and how people tend to behave. Applying this theory helps to better know yourself and get along with others.
Best of all, the theory has an easy-to-remember acronym, OCEAN. Each letter stands for a basic personality trait:
Openness to experience
Conscientiousness
Extroversion
Agreeableness
Neuroticism
Each person falls somewhere on the spectrum of each of the five OCEAN personality traits. Learning whether a person ranks high or low for each characteristic reveals the reasons behind their common actions and how they tend to behave.
You can take this quiz to find out your most dominant personality trait according to the Big Five theory to learn more about yourself. For fun, have a friend take the quiz to get to know their most dominant trait. Maybe you can even correctly guess the results!
