The Big Five personality test: http://www.personal.psu.edu/~j5j/IPIP/

You're not a static personality type like tests such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Suggest. Rather, you're a dynamic interaction of personality traits that can be shaped over time.

BrainCraft Hi! I'm Vanessa Hill, a behavioural scientist and science communicator. On BrainCraft I explore psychology, neuroscience and self-development. My mission is to bridge the gap between scientific research and your daily well-being. Outside of my regular videos, you can find BrainCraft as a series on PBS, watch my YouTube Originals show Sleeping With Friends, or check out my PBS docu-series Attention Wars. There's so much to watch, I'm honestly not sure why you're still reading this. But since you are, please consider subscribing and supporting my Patreon so I can continue to make educational videos 🧠✨
