1. Personality
Personality refers to a person or individual which they portray or express their
emotions and mood into an act and behavior towards a person or things around them.
Personality is also referring on how you will describe people on what you see or what you feel
about them. It is also showing your true feelings and characteristics. With personality, it is
either negative or positive outcome. Every people in this world has personalities. We have the
right to share our opinions, believing in any culture that you’ve heard, etc.
Personality may be bad or good to others, base on how or what would you express to
the people you are talking to. Changing your personality or mood may affect to the other
people. They would think that if you are in a bad mood, they won’t disturb you or worried
about you. There are also when you are showing attitude but you only want comfort from your
friend and families.
2. Determinants of personality
According to Team Leverage Edu, there are four major determinants of personality.
Biological/ Physical Determinants, Social Determinants, Psychological Determinants, and
Intellectual Determinants. The first determinant of personality is Biological, which refers to a
person's physical features when they express their feelings or emotions. These determinants it
has two essential constituents. These are Hereditary which refers to facial features, genes,
gender, or what you get by inheriting the parent's genes, and Physical Features, which refers
to a physical or external characteristic—describing a person based on their outer or physical
appearance like weight, height, color, and hair.
Social Determinants of Personality refers to a personality or characteristics of a person
who focuses on an individual status in a group or community to where you belong.
Psychological Determinants of Personality refers to an element you use in your mind and your
emotions related to what you think about that thing or person. The last major determinant of
personality is Intellectual Determinant which focuses on showing your characteristics in
intellectual, mind, mental, and knowledge in helping yourself in development and improving
your character.
3. Personality Type Indicators and Frameworks
The personality type indicators and frameworks are based on the Myers- Briggs
Personality test or the 16-personality test. The term used refers to the name of Isabel Myers
and Katherine Briggs. In this type of this, you will be assigned to a factor that suits you the
most. These factors are based on what you pick or choose in your personality test. There are
four different scales in 16 personality tests. Extraversion (E)- Introversion (I). Extroversion
refers to a hyper person enjoying life, energized, and happy socializing with people. At the
same time, Introverts are so glad to spend their time alone or want to be alone. They are also
shy when communicating with other people. Some introverts are talkative regarding the
person they are close with. But when talking to many crowds in public, they are shy. Sensing
(S)- Intuition (N). Sensing refers to an individual or person using their five senses to gather
information. These five senses are sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell, while intuition is all
about using your mind to think about something or what we call thinking outside the box. You
are using your imagination about that thing or person. Thinking (T)- Feeling (F). Thinking
refers to a person's personality focusing on using their mind. They are being logical in
expressing their emotions, while the feeling is you will show to the person what you feel
about them—lastly, Judging (J)- Perceiving (P). Judging refers to a personality that you are
used to judging someone based on their appearance, personality, actions, and behavior. While
perceiving refers to a character in which a person is conscious and aware of everything
happening around them.

in the original article that introduced the SD3, but they are sometimes reported in other ways
(e.g. 0-4, percent of maximum, etc.). To help interpret the scores, percentiles relative to other

Machiavellianism
Narcissism
Psychopathy
According to the results above. I would say I am a Machiavellianism, and it has 3.6.
This is my highest personality trait, according to the test I've taken. Not in a negative way. I
am a Machiavellianism in terms that I am more focused on myself. Yes, I have someone I've
been dating, but I would rather risk everything to satisfy myself. It's not being selfish. I'd still
help if someone needed me. What I mean is that I will prioritize myself over others.
Sometimes, I will help people who I think need help. Sometimes, I am Machiavellianism
when it comes to my relationship right now. I want him to be under me, and sometimes, even
if I am at fault, in the end, he will be the one who will say sorry. After many minutes, I will
say sorry because I think I don't want my pride to be greater than my love.
I am also a Narcissist (based on the results, which have 2.9), but I am on the average
side and always think I am better than everybody. Not in a negative way. What I mean by that
I am better than everybody is that I believe in myself. I think that there is something I can do
that everybody can't do. I am confident about myself. About I am unique and more. It doesn't
mean I've been discriminating against what other people can only do. I am just confident
about myself. I love myself. That's why I keep on fighting and standing up.
The last trait, which has 2.1, is Psychopathy. These are my most minor personality
traits, according to the result that was shown above. Of course, I am a good person; I would
never commit a crime to get what I want. If there is something that I would like or love to get,
I will work hard to acquire or get them. Doing something wrong is not good. You will regret it
in the end.
MY REFLECTION:
I am now at my 20s. Well to be honest, I am turning 21 this year but I will just enjoy
myself before I turned 21. Now that I am a college student, we are experiencing stress, problems,
hardship, and struggles in every course that we’ve take. All courses in college are hard. There are
no easy course because they are focusing about if you are qualify to have the job. Since when I
was minor, let’s just say 16 years old. I am a person who are short- tempered and I have a bad
personality. Everytime there is someone or something that bothers me the most, my mood would
just change.
My parents will always ask about what’s wrong about me? Why my face is always
angry? I just realize, since I am a person with a bad attitude, when my mood changes, the people
around me or close to me will also be affected. Its just like they are also in a bad mood because I
am in a bad mood too. Sometimes my cousins will talk to me or just walk past me because they
don’t want to be included about my bad personality. Example of this is earlier. In the afternoon.
My friend and I are planning to go to mall and buy all the thing that we want or so what we call
the groceries because our apartment doesn’t have foods for us to eat. My mother sent me a gcash
worth P1,500. I was wondering, where to cash out because I thought that in mall, you are not
allowed to pay your groceries through gcash. The thing that I did is that, I keep on asking to the
other staff if it is okay to pay gcash, they said “no.” I was so stressed because I don’t where to
withdraw my money and I don’t want to leave my cart in there. Now that I am the next in line, I
ask the cashier if it is okay to pay my groceries through gcash. She told me “yes.” That changes
my mood and I was so angry with the other staff because they told me you can’t pay through
gcash.
What I learned in this activity and from my experience earlier. Your personality will just
occur or come out depending on what people will do to you or what will you see about that thing.
It is normal to be attitude or changes your mood everyday. But don’t forget to just respect people
who don’t have bad intentions to you.
