I have developed much of my personality awareness from Do What You Are. After finding out that I have an Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging (ISFJ) personality type, much about me makes more sense. Before this, I hadn’t keyed in to that. It’s amazing though how much our personality types play a role in the decisions that we make in terms of friends, careers, marriages, and so much more.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
How long can my child and I access our accounts?
A:
Indefinitely. The account remains active as long as you continue to access it. Note: Human eSources provides different tools and resources specific to different age groups and situations. While you always have access to the products you have purchased, they may not remain applicable forever.
Q:
Why is personality type such a good predictor of career satisfaction and success?
A:
Personality type is the innate way people naturally see the world and make decisions - a set of basic drives and motivations that remains constant throughout a person’s life. Values, skills and interests are quite fluid in young people and often change significantly as they grow older. Learning about their personality types provides students with accurate and invaluable insights about themselves and their career-related needs. This enables them to make the most informed, satisfying college and career decisions.
Q:
What do the terms “valid” and “reliable” mean?
A:
A valid instrument measures precisely what it claims to measure. A reliable one yields consistent and repeatable results over time. What does that mean to you? Peace of mind that our assessments do what we say they do.
Q:
What are the four dimensions of personality type?
A:
Extraversion vs Introversion (E/I) identifies where they tend to focus their attention and gain most of their energy (the outer world or the inner world).
Sensing vs Intuition (S/N) describes what type of information they tend to gather, and what they are naturally aware of (concrete details or abstract ideas)
Thinking/Feeling (T/F) determines how they tend to evaluate that information, make decisions and reach conclusions (objectively based on logic, or subjectively based on values)
Judging/Perceiving (J/P) assesses how they tend to relate to the outer world of everyday life (by seeking structure and closure, or by remaining open and spontaneous)
