00:14 | my playlists . I teach vocabulary grammar , american pronunciation | |
00:20 | , us culture and more . As you know , | |
00:25 | I'm an english language teacher , not a psychologist , | |
00:29 | but I think a lot of us enjoy a bit | |
00:31 | of pop psychology . We have these common ideas about | |
00:35 | how people think and how people behave . We categorize | |
00:40 | people according to their personalities . This practice of labeling | |
00:45 | people and placing them in categories is sometimes called pigeonholing | |
00:51 | . Sometimes our labels aren't fair or accurate but we | |
00:55 | still use them and rely on them . Mhm . | |
00:59 | In this lesson we're not going to get into a | |
01:02 | deep discussion about the human character . I just want | |
01:05 | to help you master useful vocabulary for talking about personality | |
01:10 | types . Let's make it fun . We're going to | |
01:13 | pigeonhole ourselves . Take my 10 question quiz and see | |
01:17 | if you agree with the results . Ready note your | |
01:29 | answers to questions 1 , 2 , 3 , 1 | |
01:34 | . Where are you on the weekend ? A in | |
01:38 | my room doing something on my phone or reading a | |
01:41 | book . B out with friends or family to . | |
01:49 | You're at a party . What do you do ? | |
01:54 | A find a quiet place to have a conversation with | |
01:58 | a friend or sit quietly with my phone ? The | |
02:03 | have fun show off . My dance moves three . | |
02:10 | You're going on vacation . What are you thinking about | |
02:16 | ? A . I need to make sure that all | |
02:19 | my plans are in place and that I've given my | |
02:21 | emergency contact information to my family . B I hope | |
02:28 | I have an amazing time . I can't wait to | |
02:30 | see my old friends and go bungee jumping . Okay | |
02:37 | , let's talk about the results . If you answered | |
02:40 | a to most of those questions , you're an introvert | |
02:44 | , you're introverted . If you answered B to most | |
02:47 | of those questions , you're an extra vert , you're | |
02:50 | extroverted introverts are often called shy , but that's not | |
02:57 | the most accurate description . Introverts are reserved , cautious | |
03:04 | , introspective introspective means they think quietly about their feelings | |
03:10 | and their behavior . Mhm introverts like time alone with | |
03:15 | less excitement and noise , introverted people can be very | |
03:20 | sensitive and that's not necessarily a bad thing . In | |
03:26 | contrast , extroverts are considered outgoing , they're more likely | |
03:30 | to be risk takers and they take initiative . They | |
03:33 | don't wait for guidance or permission . Yeah . Extroverts | |
03:39 | can find it boring to be alone and they enjoy | |
03:42 | being the center of attention . That's partly because they're | |
03:45 | so talkative . Let me note that it's possible to | |
03:51 | be a combination of the two when the time is | |
03:54 | right , I can become more extroverted , but at | |
03:57 | heart I'm an introvert . I've heard the phrase an | |
04:01 | extroverted introvert , I think that's me . Okay , | |
04:08 | let's go on with the next set of questions . | |
04:11 | Questions four and 5 question for why would you join | |
04:17 | a game ? A . I love a good competition | |
04:24 | B just for the fun of it . Win or | |
04:27 | lose . I just enjoy playing the game with others | |
04:34 | . Question five , How do you feel about having | |
04:37 | goals ? A . I . Set goals and I | |
04:41 | achieve them B . I procrastinate . I put things | |
04:47 | off , I finished things when I feel like it | |
04:52 | . If you answered A . To both questions , | |
04:55 | you probably have a type A personality . People with | |
04:59 | a type A personality are ambitious and competitive . They | |
05:04 | can be high achievers and they like to test the | |
05:06 | limits , they like to finish things and they can | |
05:11 | do it all quickly . If you answered b to | |
05:17 | both questions , you probably have a Type B personality | |
05:21 | , People with this type of personality are more relaxed | |
05:25 | , we call them easy going . People with A | |
05:30 | Type B personality are flexible , they don't get upset | |
05:34 | easily . So they're likable . Type B people like | |
05:38 | to have a low stress level . Again , you | |
05:43 | could be a mix of the two . I think | |
05:45 | that's what I might be . But there are two | |
05:47 | other types . Let's see if these traits sound more | |
05:50 | like you . Okay , here we go with questions | |
05:55 | six and 7 , six . What gives you more | |
06:00 | satisfaction A when things are done well and done right | |
06:07 | ? Who when I feel safe and I feel certain | |
06:11 | that everything is going to be okay ? seven , | |
06:17 | what bothers you more A when people ruined my order | |
06:22 | and routine B . My feelings of worry . If | |
06:31 | you feel the first answer in both questions describes you | |
06:35 | better . You may have a Type C personality . | |
06:38 | These people are perfectionists . Mm . Time with others | |
06:44 | can hurt something . They value order and routine . | |
06:48 | One of their strengths is problem solving because they're committed | |
06:52 | to quality and accuracy . If you feel the second | |
06:58 | answer in both of those questions describes you better . | |
07:01 | You may have a Type D personality . These people | |
07:05 | can worry a lot and feel lonely , but they | |
07:08 | have deep thoughts . They're reflective . They look inward | |
07:15 | , they do a lot of quiet thinking . And | |
07:18 | other people may value all those insights by turning to | |
07:21 | a Type D personality for advice when they have problems | |
07:25 | . So although these may be anxious people , they | |
07:28 | can also be quite wise . At least that's how | |
07:31 | I understand a type D . Personality . Yeah . | |
07:36 | So do you think you're type A B , C | |
07:39 | or D . Maybe you're a combination ? I think | |
07:43 | I'm a mix , but I'm probably more of type | |
07:46 | seat . All right . I have three more questions | |
07:51 | for you . Questions eight through 10 . Here we | |
07:54 | go . Question eight . What will I find on | |
08:00 | your phone ? A a full calendar of events and | |
08:05 | lots of reminders I've created B a few events that | |
08:11 | I got invited to and that end up on my | |
08:13 | calendar . Question nine . What will you do for | |
08:19 | the holiday season ? A Make sure I have small | |
08:23 | gifts for all my friends . B make sure I | |
08:28 | catch all the holiday movies . I want to see | |
08:34 | 10 . What describes your mood ? A . I | |
08:38 | generally feel calm and relaxed . B my mood changes | |
08:44 | quite often . Okay , so people generally fall on | |
08:50 | a spectrum within a range . They're not always 100 | |
08:54 | 1 type or another . So we can talk about | |
08:57 | tendencies if you tend to be one way , that's | |
09:01 | your usual way of being . If you set in | |
09:06 | question eight that you have a full calendar and a | |
09:08 | list of reminders , you probably rank high in conscientiousness | |
09:13 | . The adjective is conscientious . It's a positive trait | |
09:19 | you like to prepare for situations and stay on top | |
09:22 | of your work . You are efficient . If you | |
09:27 | rank low in this category , you don't like the | |
09:30 | pressure of a strict schedule or too much organization . | |
09:34 | That may mean you're a little disorganized . Mhm . | |
09:39 | Now here's the funny thing . I write myself high | |
09:42 | in conscientiousness because I'm organized and detail oriented but I'm | |
09:47 | not totally opposed to change . There's another category of | |
09:54 | openness . If you rank high , then you're willing | |
09:57 | to try new things that you can be creative . | |
10:02 | If you rank low then you're more rigid . You're | |
10:05 | less flexible in your thinking and in your routine . | |
10:09 | So are you more open minded or closed minded ? | |
10:13 | Mm If you said you care about giving gifts to | |
10:18 | all your friends in question nine , you rank high | |
10:21 | in agreeableness . The adjective is agreeable . If you | |
10:27 | rank high in this category , you're cooperative rather than | |
10:31 | competitive . You're caring and kind . Yeah . If | |
10:36 | you rank low in agreeableness then you don't care too | |
10:40 | much about how others feel or what problems they may | |
10:44 | have . You might be considered insensitive . If you | |
10:50 | said your moods change a lot in question 10 , | |
10:53 | you may rank high in neuroticism . The adjective is | |
10:57 | more common , neurotic . Yeah . If your mood | |
11:02 | changes often you may be irritable . That means that | |
11:05 | things easily upset you . Mhm . In all honesty | |
11:11 | , most of us are a little neurotic in this | |
11:13 | fast paced world we live in . It's not always | |
11:16 | easy to go with the flow and stay relaxed . | |
11:20 | Do you agree ? We'll end here . I know | |
