I love personality tests and anything to do with personality theory. I also am known to enjoy a good meme every now and then. This meme was obviously developed with me in mind. When I saw it on Verbatim I knew that resistance was futile.

The following instructions come from Richard Chapelle's blogger research project. My results follow. I'm not going to tag anybody and make you feel obligated. Instead, I invite each and every blogger who reads this to play along.
__________________________________________
Overview: This post is a community experiment with two broad purposes. The first is to create publicly accessible data about bloggers' personalities, which may have sociological value in addition to being just plain fun. The second is to track the propagation of this meme through blogspace. Full details and explanation can be found on the original posting: http://pixnaps.blogspot.com/2005/06/meme-worth-spreading.html
Instructions (to join in the experiment):
1) Take the IPIP-NEO personality test and the Political Compass quiz, if you have not done so already.
2) Copy to the clipboard that section of this post that is between the double lines, and paste it into your blog editor. (Blogger users may wish to use 'compose' mode to preserve formatting and hyperlinks. Otherwise, be sure to add hyperlinks as necessary.)
3) Replace the answers in the "survey" section below with your own.
4) Add your blog information to the "track list", in the form: "Linked title - URL - optional GUID".
5) Any additional comments should go outside of the double lines, including the (optional) nomination of bloggers you wish to pass this experimental meme on to.
6) Post it to your blog!

I can't say that I'm overly suprised by any of my results. If you do play along, please be sure to let me know because I enjoy seeing other's results.
UPDATE: I did actually end of tagging Marla, the meme orginators put out a call for conservitve learning women and I knowing that she leans that way and loves personality stuff as much as I do would have fun with it.
About Me
- Lora
- While I'm loving life in the Austin area, I mainly grew up in the Hudson Valley of New York. I’m a 38 year old INFP married to a very handy INTJ. We have a three year old that keeps life interesting and full of meaning, a little girl in the womb and a 9 year old puppy. I tend to take a Zen approach to life and, at least mentally, I’m always going off on one tangent or another. This really is just a hodge-podge of whatever’s on my mind at the moment with little rhyme or reason.

Yes, capybaras wrote that...he's "D" from my blog.
I took your personality test twice - once short form, once long form - b/c I wasn't happy with my answers from the short form. There, I've come clean :)
Well, since we are all coming clean. I also took it twice, both long, and averaged my answers for the post. The first time had me as a little more neurotic and conscientious and a little less agreeable then the second time, but this is a more accurate reflection of me.
