Hey all.  I took a 128 question personality test giving the answers I thought my Snape would give and here are the results. Whew. Sounds about right though.  BUT, I believe his treatment of Hermione would be much different than his normal treatment of others, which this test reflects.  Hermione would be the exception.  So while it might be close to how he is, it's no indication of how he'd be with Hermione (says Dr. Figg) lol.  Enjoy.

 

 

Snape's Results: E--A--C++N-O-

This report estimates the individual's level on each of the five broad personality domains of the Five-Factor Model. The description of each one of the five broad domains is followed by a more detailed description of personality according to the six subdomains that comprise each domain. A note on terminology. Personality traits describe, relative to other people, the frequency or intensity of a person's feelings, thoughts, or behaviors. Possession of a trait is therefore a matter of degree. We might describe two individuals as extraverts, but still see one as more extraverted than the other. This report uses expressions such as "extravert" or "high in extraversion" to describe someone who is likely to be seen by others as relatively extraverted. The computer program that generates this report classifies you as low, average, or high in a trait according to whether your score is approximately in the lowest 30%, middle 40%, or highest 30% of scores obtained by people of your sex and roughly your age. Your numerical scores are reported and graphed as percentile estimates. For example, a score of "60" means that your level on that trait is estimated to be higher than 60% of persons of your sex and age. Please keep in mind that "low," "average," and "high" scores on a personality test are neither absolutely good nor bad. A particular level on any trait will probably be neutral or irrelevant for a great many activities, be helpful for accomplishing some things, and detrimental for accomplishing other things. As with any personality inventory, scores and descriptions can only approximate an individual's actual personality. High and low score descriptions are usually accurate, but average scores close to the low or high boundaries might misclassify you as only average. On each set of six subdomain scales it is somewhat uncommon but certainly possible to score high in some of the subdomains and low in the others. In such cases more attention should be paid to the subdomain scores than to the broad domain score. Questions about the accuracy of your results are best resolved by showing your report to people who know you well. John A. Johnson wrote descriptions of the five domains and thirty subdomains. These descriptions are based on an extensive reading of the scientific literature on personality measurement. Although Dr. Johnson would like to be acknowledged as the author of these materials if they are reproduced, he has placed them in the public domain.

Extraversion

Extraversion is marked by pronounced engagement with the external world. Extraverts enjoy being with people, are full of energy, and often experience positive emotions. They tend to be enthusiastic, action-oriented, individuals who are likely to say "Yes!" or "Let's go!" to opportunities for excitement. In groups they like to talk, assert themselves, and draw attention to themselves.

Introverts lack the exuberance, energy, and activity levels of extraverts. They tend to be quiet, low-key, deliberate, and disengaged from the social world. Their lack of social involvement should not be interpreted as shyness or depression; the introvert simply needs less stimulation than an extravert and prefers to be alone. The independence and reserve of the introvert is sometimes mistaken as unfriendliness or arrogance. In reality, an introvert who scores high on the agreeableness dimension will not seek others out but will be quite pleasant when approached.
 

Domain / Facet Score
EXTRAVERSION 1
 - Friendliness 0  
 - Gregariousness 0  
 - Assertiveness 74
 - Activity level 57
 - Excitement-Seeking 0  
 - Cheerfulness 0  
Your extraversion score indicates that you prefer to be alone rather than be forced into lots of social situations. Your approach to people (and problems) is usually low-key and deliberate, and you like to have just a few close friends rather than many acquaintances. However, you need to be aware that this independence and reserve can be seen by others as a little arrogant so sometimes you will need to make a special effort to "fit in." When it comes to romance, although you might be attracted to someone more extraverted, over the long term, you will appreciate someone who is more like you. Keep in mind that your love of peace and quiet also applies to people, especially people very close to you. In matters of the heart, we all have a natural tendency to try to balance what we perceive as inadequacies like shyness with a partner who is more outgoing. This usually fails though because shyness is not an inadequacy. It's a preference that we have selected to make ourselves feel more comfortable.
Extraversion Facets

 
  • Friendliness - Friendly people genuinely like other people and openly demonstrate positive feelings toward others. They make friends quickly and it is easy for them to form close, intimate relationships. Low scorers on Friendliness are not necessarily cold and hostile, but they do not reach out to others and are perceived as distant and reserved You have a low level of friendliness, which isn't as bad as it sounds. It doesn't mean that you are cold or hostile but that you tend not to reach out to others. As a result, some people may see you as distant, reserved or formal.

     
  • Gregariousness - Gregarious people find the company of others pleasantly stimulating and rewarding. They enjoy the excitement of crowds. Low scorers tend to feel overwhelmed by, and therefore actively avoid, large crowds. They do not necessarily dislike being with people sometimes, but their need for privacy and time to themselves is much greater than for individuals who score high on this scale. You have a low level of gregariousness. You rarely feel a need for company and you can feel overwhelmed by crowds. It's not that you don't like being around people, but you just enjoy time to yourself. In relationships, it's very important that you seek partners who share this feeling for privacy, otherwise you will find your social life stressful.

     
  • Assertiveness - High scorers Assertiveness like to speak out, take charge, and direct the activities of others. They tend to be leaders in groups. Low scorers tend not to talk much and let others control the activities of groups. Your level of assertiveness is high. You have no problem leading conversations, giving your opinion or taking charge. In relationships, you like to set the agenda. If your partner is less assertive than you, s/he will usually look to you to take the lead.

     
  • Activity level - Active individuals lead fast-paced, busy lives. They move about quickly, energetically, and vigorously, and they are involved in many activities. People who score low on this scale follow a slower and more leisurely, relaxed pace. You have an average activity level. Although you can live a fast-paced lifestyle for a while, you like to follow busy periods with some rest and relaxation. Adjusting your activity level like this lets you fit in to almost all group activities or relationships.

     
  • Excitement-Seeking - High scorers on this scale are easily bored without high levels of stimulation. They love bright lights and hustle and bustle. They are likely to take risks and seek thrills. Low scorers are overwhelmed by noise and commotion and are adverse to thrill-seeking. Your level of excitement-seeking is low. This means that you feel little need for thrills-and-spills and can be overwhelmed by noise and commotion. You prefer the serenity of a peaceful atmosphere to the hustle and bustle of a busy city.

     
  • Cheerfulness - This scale measures positive mood and feelings, not negative emotions (which are a part of the Neuroticism domain). Persons who score high on this scale typically experience a range of positive feelings, including happiness, enthusiasm, optimism, and joy. Low scorers are not as prone to such energetic, high spirits. You have a low level of cheerfulness. That doesn't mean that you are unhappy. It simply means that you are not only reserved about expressing happiness, you are also guarded about expressing optimism.

     
  • Agreeableness

    Agreeableness reflects individual differences in concern with cooperation and social harmony. Agreeable individuals value getting along with others. They are therefore considerate, friendly, generous, helpful, and willing to compromise their interests with others'. Agreeable people also have an optimistic view of human nature. They believe people are basically honest, decent, and trustworthy.

    You have a low level of agreeableness. You prefer to go it alone rather than following the crowd. You tend to be skeptical, and demand that people prove themselves to you before you trust them. In relationships, this can be a problem, especially if you are with someone similar. In groups and business, a little low agreeableness can be a good thing.
    Agreeableness Facets

     
  • Trust - A person with high trust assumes that most people are fair, honest, and have good intentions. Persons low in trust see others as selfish, devious, and potentially dangerous. You have a low level of trust and tend to see others as selfish, devious and potentially dangerous. A little skepticism can be useful... but rarely in relationships where trust is vital. You need to determine why you distrust others and make sure that in a relationship, you talk things over with your partner -- and without unjustified accusations.

     
  • Morality - High scorers on this scale see no need for pretense or manipulation when dealing with others and are therefore candid, frank, and sincere. Low scorers believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary. People find it relatively easy to relate to the straightforward high-scorers on this scale. They generally find it more difficult to relate to the unstraightforward low-scorers on this scale. It should be made clear that low scorers are not unprincipled or immoral; they are simply more guarded and less willing to openly reveal the whole truth. You have a low morality level. This does not mean that you are immoral but rather that you are guarded and wait before revealing the whole truth. In a business relationship, this attitude can be useful, but it's not a good thing to bring to a personal relationship. The second phase of any romantic relationship is intimacy. It's difficult to be intimate if you are holding back.

     
  • Altruism - Altruistic people find helping other people genuinely rewarding. Consequently, they are generally willing to assist those who are in need. Altruistic people find that doing things for others is a form of self-fulfillment rather than self-sacrifice. Low scorers on this scale do not particularly like helping those in need. Requests for help feel like an imposition rather than an opportunity for self-fulfillment. You have a low altruism score. You prefer not to get involved in other people's problems and see requests for help as a nuisance rather than an opportunity to lend a hand;. Although this attitude can be a useful way to get ahead in business, in personal relationships, people can think you don't care. Since intimacy is such an important part of any romantic relationship, that can really cause you harm. If you value your relationship, you will need to show that you care.

     
  • Cooperation - Individuals who score high on this scale dislike confrontations. They are perfectly willing to compromise or to deny their own needs in order to get along with others. Those who score low on this scale are more likely to intimidate others to get their way. You have a low level of cooperation and compliance, which means that you are likely to always have things your way. This competitive spirit can be useful in business, but not in a relationship. Relationships are not about competition; they are about developing intimacy. You will need to put a check on your competitive drive if you want to enjoy the time you spend with your partner.

     
  • Modesty - High scorers on this scale do not like to claim that they are better than other people. In some cases this attitude may derive from low self-confidence or self-esteem. Nonetheless, some people with high self-esteem find immodesty unseemly. Those who are willing to describe themselves as superior tend to be seen as disagreeably arrogant by other people. You have an average level of modesty. You feel equal to others and your level of self esteem and self-confidence shouldn't cause any problems in relationships. In fact, you're very easy to get along with.

     
  • Sympathy - People who score high on this scale are tenderhearted and compassionate. They feel the pain of others vicariously and are easily moved to pity. Low scorers are not affected strongly by human suffering. They pride themselves on making objective judgments based on reason. They are more concerned with truth and impartial justice than with mercy. You have a low level of sympathy, which means that you are not easily moved. (Although you may be more concerned with truth and justice than with mercy.) When you need to be strong, your low sympathy level can be a good thing, but it can also be a problem in a relationship. Your partner will need to feel that you care for his/her safety, health and well-being, so you'll need to show it if you want to develop a meaningful relationship. Alternatively, you can always find someone who shares your views on sympathy.

     
  • Conscientiousness

    Conscientiousness concerns the way in which we control, regulate, and direct our impulses. Impulses are not inherently bad; occasionally time constraints require a snap decision, and acting on our first impulse can be an effective response. Also, in times of play rather than work, acting spontaneously and impulsively can be fun. Impulsive individuals can be seen by others as colorful, fun-to-be-with, and zany

     - Achievement-Striving 89
     - Self-Discipline 99
     - Cautiousness 98
    Your level of conscientiousness is high. You are focused and goal-orientated. People see you as dependable, disciplined and industrious, and you have a strong will to succeed in everything that you do, including relationships. Although a potential partner will appreciate your planning and organizational skills, unless they're just like you, they won't be happy that you don't take time to smell the flowers! In fact, if you're with someone with a low conscientious level, they could see you as a workaholic.
    Conscientiousness Facets

     
  • Self-efficacy - Self-Efficacy describes confidence in one's ability to accomplish things. High scorers believe they have the intelligence (common sense), drive, and self-control necessary for achieving success. Low scorers do not feel effective, and may have a sense that they are not in control of their lives. Your level of self-efficacy is high. This means that you are usually prepared and confident about the things you need to do and feel that you have the intelligence or common sense to achieve success. A high level of self-efficacy is important in a relationship and, if you are matched with someone who feels the same, you will have no problem moving your relationship to higher levels. However, if your partner scores much lower than you in this area, you might feel frustrated and refocus your energies elsewhere (like work). When this happens, you need to motivate your partner to work with you and solve your relationship problems together.

     
  • Orderliness - Orderliness is a behavior that predisposes someone to arrange or dispose of things in a neat, tidy manner or in a regular sequence. These people observe a system of organization or are governed by a methodology to create an orderly structure in their environment. You have a high level of orderliness. You have a system and you stick to it. Your house is always neat and tidy, and an untidy partner can drive you nuts. If you're with someone who has a low orderliness, you'll have to find a way to compromise. Shopping, planning activities and setting life priorities such as play vs. work are all areas where relationship trouble can occur between people with very different levels of orderliness.

     
  • Dutifulness - This scale reflects the strength of a person's sense of duty and obligation. Those who score high on this scale have a strong sense of moral obligation. Low scorers find contracts, rules, and regulations overly confining. They are likely to be seen as unreliable or even irresponsible. Your level for dutifulness is low. This means that you are casual about your obligations and you don't like contracts, rules or regulations. As a teenager, that's fine; in a relationship, it means commitment problems. If you are in love -- if you feel passion and intimacy -- you cannot move forward unless you're prepared to promise to stick it out "until death do us part!" You need to think about this side of your personality carefully. Would you be better off staying in casual relationships that do not require commitment?

     
  • Achievement-Striving - Individuals who score high on this scale strive hard to achieve excellence. Their drive to be recognized as successful keeps them on track toward their lofty goals. They often have a strong sense of direction in life, but extremely high scores may be too single-minded and obsessed with their work. Low scorers are content to get by with a minimal amount of work, and might be seen by others as lazy. Your level of achievement-striving is high. This means that you are driven by success and probably have a strong sense of direction in life. However, you need to be careful not to be too single-minded or obsessed with your work. You need to channel your drive and energy into your relationship so that a potential partner does not feel left behind. It's important to select a partner who shares your ambitiousness.

     
  • Self-Discipline - Self-discipline-what many people call will-power-refers to the ability to persist at difficult or unpleasant tasks until they are completed. People who possess high self-discipline are able to overcome reluctance to begin tasks and stay on track despite distractions. Those with low self-discipline procrastinate and show poor follow-through, often failing to complete tasks-even tasks they want very much to complete. Your level of self-discipline is high, which is excellent both personally and professionally. You have the will-power to persist at difficult tasks and stay on track to the end. Relationships are all about commitment and self-discipline so you are well prepared to achieve greatness in a relationship. Make sure that your work does not take priority over your love-life though. It can be tempting to chase short-term financial rewards rather than the benefits of a long-term relationship.

     
  • Cautiousness - Cautiousness describes the disposition to think through possibilities before acting. High scorers on the Cautiousness scale take their time when making decisions. Low scorers often say or do first thing that comes to mind without deliberating alternatives and the probable consequences of those alternatives. Your level of cautiousness is high. You tend to think things through before acting and take your time before making decisions. Try to be a little more spontaneous! When looking for a partner, you'll be best with someone similar.

     
  • Neuroticism

    Neuroticism refers to the tendency to experience negative feelings. People high in neuroticism are emotionally reactive. Those who score high on Neuroticism may experience primarily one specific negative feeling such as anxiety, anger, or depression, but are likely to experience several of these emotions.
    Domain / Facet Score
    NEUROTICISM 20
     - Anxiety 25
     - Anger 95
     - Depression 9
     - Self-Consciousness 27
     - Immoderation 8
     - Vulnerability 2
    Your level of neuroticism is low, which is excellent for a relationship. It means that you are resilient and will respond to stress in a calm and rational way. That's a good thing... unless you are in a relationship with someone who scores higher on this scale. In that case, they may see your calmness as a sign that you do not care! Their stress would then increase even further while you wonder why they are so stressed out. If you are in a relationship with someone whose trigger is much shorter than yours, be aware that it will become your responsibility to manage tense situations.
    Neuroticism Facets

     
  • Anxiety - The "fight-or-flight" system of the brain of anxious individuals is too easily and too often engaged. Therefore, people who are high in anxiety often feel like something dangerous is about to happen. They may be afraid of specific situations or be just generally fearful. They feel tense, jittery, and nervous. Persons low in Anxiety are generally calm and fearless. You anxiety level is low. This means that you are usually calm, even in times of stress. This is a great disposition for a relationship; it will help you through difficult times. You will enjoy being with a partner who also has a similarly low score in this facet. If you find yourself with a partner whose anxiety levels are much higher than yours, remember that it's not their fault!

     
  • Anger - Persons who score high in Anger feel enraged when things do not go their way. They are sensitive about being treated fairly and feel resentful and bitter when they feel they are being cheated. This scale measures the tendency to feel angry; whether or not the person expresses annoyance and hostility depends on the individual's level on Agreeableness. Low scorers do not get angry often or easily. Your level of anger is high. You are sensitive about being treated unfairly and feel resentful and bitter when you feel you are being cheated. If things don't go your way, you feel enraged. Fortunately, whether or not you express that anger depends on the level of your agreeableness. In a relationship, it's obviously important to control your feelings of anger. Try asking questions to make sure that it's not all a misunderstanding; sometimes, what you're angry about is often an echo from a past experience. If you want to enjoy your relationship, you will need to make serious efforts to control your feelings of anger.

     
  • Depression - This scale measures the tendency to feel sad, dejected, and discouraged. High scorers lack energy and have difficult initiating activities. Low scorers tend to be free from these depressive feelings. Your level of depression is low. This means that your energy level tends to remain high and you find it easy to initiate activities. You rarely feel guilty or discouraged.

     
  • Self-Consciousness - Self-conscious individuals are sensitive about what others think of them. Their concern about rejection and ridicule cause them to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. They are easily embarrassed and often feel ashamed. Their fears that others will criticize or make fun of them are exaggerated and unrealistic, but their awkwardness and discomfort may make these fears a self-fulfilling prophecy. Low scorers, in contrast, do not suffer from the mistaken impression that everyone is watching and judging them. They do not feel nervous in social situations. Your level of self-consciousness is low. You don't believe that everyone is watching you or judging you, which makes you feel at ease in social situations. You're also difficult to embarrass. This facet is not very important in most relationships, although we do prefer to be with partners who are like us. If you are not in a relationship, you should find it easy to meet people and feel comfortable with them.

     
  • Immoderation - Immoderate individuals feel strong cravings and urges that they have difficulty resisting. They tend to be oriented toward short-term pleasures and rewards rather than long- term consequences. Low scorers do not experience strong, irresistible cravings and consequently do not find themselves tempted to overindulge. Your immoderation level is low. This means that you can easily resist temptation, whether it comes in the form of alcohol, tobacco, food, drugs, alcohol, gambling or even sex. You don't suffer from strong urges or irresistible cravings and rarely overindulge. This is excellent for a relationship; large amounts of any of these substances can lead to major problems in a relationship.

     
  • Vulnerability - High scorers on Vulnerability experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. Low scorers feel more poised, confident, and clear-thinking when stressed. Your vulnerability level is low. You are poised and confident, and handle stress and emergencies well. This is excellent for a relationship; panic never helps during a relationship crisis. You will enjoy being with a potential partner with a similar score on this facet. If you're with a potential partner who has a much higher score than yours though, expect to be the one responsible for managing the relationship in times of trouble.

     
  • Openness to Experience

    Openness to Experience describes a dimension of cognitive style that distinguishes imaginative, creative people from down-to-earth, conventional people. Open people are intellectually curious, appreciative of art, and sensitive to beauty. They tend to be, compared to closed people, more aware of their feelings. They tend to think and act in individualistic and nonconforming ways. Intellectuals typically score high on Openness to Experience; consequently, this factor has also been called Culture or Intellect.

     - Artistic interests 14
     - Emotionality 6
     - Adventurousness 47
     - Intellect 90
     - Liberalism 35
    Your openness to experience level is low. You are practical and down-to-earth, and live in the present. Because you tend to stick with what you know rather than experiment with something that might not work, some people may see you as conservative. As far as you're concerned if it's not bust, why fix it? -- at least until you're sure the new version will be better. In a relationship, this attitude can narrow your choices when you need to solve a problem. To develop more satisfying relationships, try to be more open and willing to try new things.
    Openness to Experience Facets

     
  • Imagination - To imaginative individuals, the real world is often too plain and ordinary. High scorers on this scale use fantasy as a way of creating a richer, more interesting world. Low scorers are on this scale are more oriented to facts than fantasy. Your level of imagination is low. You are grounded and focused on fact rather than fantasy. Romantically, you will find the greatest happiness with someone who scores close to you on this facet: you need to be with someone who also views the world for what it is rather than be with someone you consider a day-dreamer.

     
  • Artistic interests - High scorers on this scale love beauty, both in art and in nature. They become easily involved and absorbed in artistic and natural events. They are not necessarily artistically trained nor talented, although many will be. The defining features of this scale are interest in, and appreciation of natural and artificial beauty. Low scorers lack aesthetic sensitivity and interest in the arts. Your level of artistic interest is low. Picasso or Rembrandt won't move you, but the beauty of a Harley or a Viper convertible might. Your concept of art won't matter much in a relationship... unless you're with someone with a high score in this facet. They'll want to go to museums and galleries; you'll want to find a bench as soon as you get there and go to sleep until it's time to leave. Since relationships are very much about doing things together, you would be better off being with someone who scores close to you on this facet.

     
  • Emotionality - Persons high on Emotionality have good access to and awareness of their own feelings. Low scorers are less aware of their feelings and tend not to express their emotions openly. Your level of emotionality is low. You are not particularly aware of your feelings and tend not to express your emotions. In a relationship, this can be a mixed blessing: a partner generally will want to hear about your positive feelings; your negative feelings not so much. Showing emotionality is important, if done moderately.

     
  • Adventurousness - High scorers on adventurousness are eager to try new activities, travel to foreign lands, and experience different things. They find familiarity and routine boring, and will take a new route home just because it is different. Low scorers tend to feel uncomfortable with change and prefer familiar routines. Your level of adventurousness is average. You like to mix the old with the new. This is an excellent attitude to bring to a relationship that needs to move forward: you're not afraid to find new ways to bring in fun and happiness. If a potential partner shares approximately the same value as you on this scale, you will find no difficulties in enjoying each other's company.

     
  • Intellect - Intellect and artistic interests are the two most important, central aspects of openness to experience. High scorers on Intellect love to play with ideas. They are open-minded to new and unusual ideas, and like to debate intellectual issues. They enjoy riddles, puzzles, and brain teasers. Low scorers on Intellect prefer dealing with either people or things rather than ideas. They regard intellectual exercises as a waste of time. Intellect should not be equated with intelligence. Intellect is an intellectual style, not an intellectual ability, although high scorers on Intellect score slightly higher than low-Intellect individuals on standardized intelligence tests. Your level of intellect is high. This indicates that you are open to new and unusual ideas and like to debate intellectual issues. You probably enjoy riddles, puzzles and brain teasers and have a broad intellectual curiosity. In a relationship, you will feel happiest with someone very close to you on this scale. Someone well below you on this facet will bore you and they will consider you too zany or unreliable, and always coming up with new and dangerous ideas.

     
  • Liberalism - Psychological liberalism refers to a readiness to challenge authority, convention, and traditional values. In its most extreme form, psychological liberalism can even represent outright hostility toward rules, sympathy for law-breakers, and love of ambiguity, chaos, and disorder. Psychological conservatives prefer the security and stability brought by conformity to tradition. Psychological liberalism and conservatism are not identical to political affiliation, but certainly incline individuals toward certain political parties. Your level of liberalism is low. This means that you like the sense of security that tradition can bring. In a relationship, this sort of psychological liberalism is not very relevant unless you are both low on the agreeableness scale. If that's the case, you should probably avoid discussing politics; you will never agree. Since relationships are about sharing ideas, you would be better off with someone not too far away from you on this facet.
