Posted October 6, 2010 It's that time again where I have to come up with a load of people to respond to a questionnaire and I was wondering whether some of you may help me out with that . It shouldn't take too long so if you could just highlight/Bold the one that is most like you and perhaps send me a PM with all the questions plus your answers copy and pasted that would be much appreciated. I'll tell you a little bit about what I'm doing, it's basically a questionnaire I've formed. (well along with my group) and we shall take the answers and test it for reliability. Psychometric Questionnaire Each of the following items is a phrase describing people's behaviour. Please use the rating scale below to describe how accurately each statement describes you. Describe yourself as you generally are now, not as you wish to be in the future. Describe yourself as you honestly see yourself, in relation to other people you know of the same sex as you are, and roughly your same age. So that you can describe yourself in an honest manner, your responses will be kept in absolute confidence. Please read each statement carefully, and then circle the number that corresponds to the appropriate number on the scale. Response Options 1: Very Inaccurate 2: Moderately Inaccurate 3: Neither Inaccurate nor Accurate 4: Moderately Accurate 5: Very Accurate 1. Am ready to act on the spot. 1 2 3 4 5 2. Am unpredictable--people never know what I am going to say. 1 2 3 4 5 3. Am unwilling to change appointments. 1 2 3 4 5 4. Break rules. 1 2 3 4 5 5. Blurt out whatever comes into my mind. 1 2 3 4 5 6. Make decisions slowly. 1 2 3 4 5 7. Plan ahead and stick to it. 1 2 3 4 5 8. Purchase only practical things. 1 2 3 4 5 9. Quickly think up new ideas. 1 2 3 4 5 10. Often think about the possibility of negative outcomes that are not likely to occur. 1 2 3 4 5 11. Jump into things without thinking. 1 2 3 4 5 12. Know that my ideas sometimes surprise people. 1 2 3 4 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 6, 2010 Well, I don't mind people seeing my answers. I don't know exactly why I sent them instead. Some idea about them being unaffected by other people's answers or something like that. I can post them is you really want to see them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
