Personality Traits Mega-Thread ( + Little-recognized Personallity Traits. )

[mmKay]

Screw personallity tests. Let's do it properly.

 

How valuable is it for Self-Understanding to have a big picture list of all personallity traits and their definitions?

How valuable is it for understanding others?

How valuable is it for understanding your relationships?

 

This is why I'd like us to recompile definitions for all personallity traits.

This could provide a profound new layer of clarity for your life and what your strengths and preferences are, therefore allowing you to architect and live a more fulfilling life.

 

Let's get all the basic ones but also look out for less known ones.

 

My fave Personallity Trait finds for now ( I took the first one absolutely for granted my entire life):

 

Wikipedia: Need for Cognition 

Efficiency-orientation. The tendency to Min-max

Wikipedia : Perfectionism. Understand its positive and negative tendencies

Wikipedia: Grit ("long term ambition")   Wikipedia: Novelty seeking  

Ambiguity Tolerance  

 

I don't know if it's possible to absolutely lack a trait. I feel it's more of a degree on a spectrum.

   Nice. Mine is Myers Briggs personality types and the Big Five personality traits modal. Also Jane Loevinger's 9 stages of ego development.
