ANALYSIS

Responsibility is a trait that leans somewhat towards introversion. Those with high scores are likely to be conscientious (even compulsively so), reliable, trustworthy and serious-minded. But while many extravert traits portray a person in good shape, if not taken to extremes, an element of introversion in the area of responsibility serves as a valuable balance.

Those with low scores are more inclined to be casual, careless, unpredictable and perhaps socially irresponsible, in an extraverted manner. To cause effects without the appropriate knowledge and understanding, and without proper control of what happens, is irresponsible, as is to do nothing when you know something should be done. So like the ability to reflect, this can be a weak area in those who are uninhibited but do not have the necessary awareness - of themselves and the viewpoints of others - to act responsibly.

How do you compare?

The norm on this trait is between 14-15 points (a statistical approximation). This may be represented on the following scale:

Responsibility 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 || 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Irresponsibility
