The Big Five model of personality types is a comprehensive explanation of personality commonly accepted in contemporary psychology. An employee at a large firm who is considered to be accepting, easy to work with, and caring falls into which personality type?
  1. Extraversion
  2. Agreeableness
  3. Conscientiousness
  4. Openness to experience
Explanation
Answer: B - Agreeableness is the personality model marked by traits like kindness, sympathy, and approachability. This type of personality is easy to work with, but is not a leader (whereas extroverted types are more actively outgoing and likely to take charge). Conscientious types are self-disciplined, focused, and will achieve their goals. The personality type identified as openness to experience is marked by creativity, curiosity, and the ability to handle complex systems.
