Dispositional and Social/Cultural Personality Analysis of Vicky
Personality entails the distinctive aspects that individuals possess, which define the person's thinking, behavior or emotions. Different domains exist through which personality aspects are analyzed. These domains include behavioral, biological, dispositional, cognitive, adjustment, social, and intrapsychic. In the analysis of personality psychology, we focus on two domains; dispositional and social/cultural approaches. Vicky’s personality, as a subject, will be evaluated using some of the personality theories.
The paper is about someone in my immediate social circle, Vicky, my girlfriend. Vicky spends most of her time of the day on her bed. She owns a table card game shop, and her job is to communicate with customers and organize them together for a 6-8 person’s table game according to their accommodations. The job can be done by completely using her phone, which has made the phone her best friend. Therefore, she will not go to the shop even though the shop is only a five-minute walk away from her home. Vicky enjoys interacting and creating new friendships through her job. She spends most of her spare time making video call with her boyfriend and watching series, social media, shopping online in the meantime. She enjoys drinking coffee when watching series. When she makes a video call, there is usually a cup of coffee beside her. Sometimes, she will go to a restaurant she spots on social media recommendation with her friend and have an excellent time before heading home. Although her description may portray her as a lazy person, the analysis will clearly illustrate her personality status.

These aspects differentiate individuals since people possess varying degrees of those traits. As we test Vicky's personality against the dispositional domain, we evaluate her characteristics to a dimensional approach's Big Five personality traits. The score of her Big five personality trait test predicts some aspects of her behavior and accomplishments. By refining her personality aspects, stability taxonomy is achieved after the comprehensive analysis of a list of five personality traits. These traits include; neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. Different examinations are conducted to measure relativity to the five-factor traits. The analysis applies a test scale that is accurate and efficient in determining Vicky's actual characteristics while relating to individuals in society.
To test Vicky’s personality approach, we use a personality test measure called the Big Five Model Indicator. The test measure is abbreviated as BFI. Various categories are developed to test the five traits dimensions when using the measure. These five dimensions ...
