Context of the Applied mainly in the area of Human Resources, which is the most Design Problem common context in which this tests are applied when recruiting employees. However, the book can also be used in areas such as Business, Psychology, Marketing and even Design.. WHO? Target Audience Geared towards Strivers, goal oriented individuals that want to move forwards and succeed at their work. Therefor, can apply this knowledge to implement new ideas at work. WHY? Design Problem According to current research, the Myers-Briggs personality tests is the most common tests applied in professional environments for recruiting individuals and forming teams. However studies have discovered that the results are not accurate since this is not the proper context or application for which the test was created. Further more, there are 18 other tests with different purposes and contexts of use, to satisfy the different needs in the market. There aren’t any sites or books that compile all this information. In conse- quence, the goal of this project is to explain the different person- alities of the Personality tests themselves, in order to inform, in a compelling way, the correct applications and purposes that lead to the choice of a right test to use. Project Guidelines PROJECT STATEMENT The Project needed to be a Personal quest or interested that we've had for some time. STARTING IDEA There are certain archetypes and personality types that label us into several groups. Why do we need to be labeled in that way? People don’t actually ft into that any specifc label, so why use them? Prof. Lisa Babb GRDS 702. Methodological Practice Winter 2015 6 Topic and Plan Before starting the Research about personality tests, there was a process of selection from a list of possible interests, this lead to a series of questions to be answered through the research, as well as, the schedule and plan of all the stages of the project. SOHC GNI POT CI POSSIBLE TOPICS RLE ECNA VE This was the list of possible topics discussed in class. From the class' feedback ROF PRTCEJO many of the ideas were ruled out, and two were selected to explore further. Prof. Lisa Babb GRDS 702. Methodological Practice Winter 2015 RLE ECNA VE I discussed this quick brainstorm with Lisa and her feedback was that I focused ROF PRTCEJO on the topic of archetypes and stereotypes, since this had the most potential.

We have archetypes in personality that describe the Utopian fea- tures in a personality, however, in reality we can’t perfectly ft any archetype. Personality test group you into a specifc type or archetype with distinctive features that describe the way you think and act. Even thought people may feel identify with their type, the majority don’t agree 100% with all the features of their personality type. RSE RAE HC SEUQ SNOIT Why do we label ourselves? Why this archetypes haven’t change in time? Is there a way to adapt to them? Do they describe us or do we adapt to them? Prof. Lisa Babb GRDS 702. Methodological Practice Winter 2015
