The word personality originates from the Latin word persona, referring to masks worn by theater performers to hide their identity or portray different roles.

Your persona, or personality, is unique to you. It’s a combination of the behaviors, emotions, thought patterns, and motivations that define us.

Research from the past few decades has pointed to the role of environment – including how we were raised – and our genetics in forming and shaping our personalities.

So, what is your personality?

Among your group of friends, are you considered the shy one who waits for others to make decisions?

Or, are you seen as the dominant one who is ready to take the lead?

Our personality test can help you find out your personality type. Answering these simple questions will give you a description of who you are and tell you how others see you.

Instructions

Answer each of the questions below honestly about yourself and we’ll score the quiz and let you know how others see you.

This online screening is not a diagnostic tool. Only a trained medical professional, like a doctor or mental health professional, can help you determine the next best steps for you.

Disclaimer: This quiz is for entertainment purposes only. In no way is this an empirically validated test. The concepts presented are not rooted in any known research.

Ready to start therapy? Our Find a Therapist resource may help.

What Kind of Person Are You?

""

Image: Getty Images / DigitalVision / Morsa Images

What kind of person are you? You should know that, right? You might think that you know the answer, but do you, really? All of us are made up of many different things; how are we to know how we really present ourselves to the world? And what we think we are doesn't always match up with what others see. Some of us might think that we aren't the best person in the world, but our friends and family see us as kind and loving. Others might look at ourselves like we could have accomplished more in life, and that we haven't done as much as we could have, while others look at us as hardworking and accomplished. 

There are so many of us humans all around the world, and each of us is just a little bit different, all of us offering something new to those around us, all of us defined by something different. What about you? Are you kind, loving, powerful, determined, smart, daring, funny, or maybe you're all of those things all rolled up into one? 

Take this quiz, and we'll let you know what kind of person you are. The answers might surprise you unless your kind of person is "self-aware."

Are you in tune with other people?

I pretty much always am.

I don't have any idea if I am.

No, but I can figure them out.

I think so.

Ernst Kretschmer's personality test

Character traits are very difficult to put into one small classification. They are too branchy, depend on circumstances, relate to different areas (attitude towards oneself, other people, things, etc.). Therefore, Ernst Kretschmer decided to make only a general description of the three types of character, which he based not only on psychology, but also on ... physiology. Interesting?
