Describe costa and mccrae five-factor model


Assignment task:

I have evaluated my closest friends based on Costa and McCrae's Five-Factor Model (FFM). The model uses five factors that are further broken down within the model. The five factors are Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness. Need Assignment Help?

Friend 1 is very extraverted and exhibits high assertiveness, gregarious, seeks excitement, and activity. She is always traveling and I can tell when she is getting cabin fever. She had her first and only child a couple years ago; so her spontaneous trips have slowed down quite a bit. This has been a big adjustment that took a while to get used to.

Friend 2 is high in conscientiousness and is dutiful, organized, and achievement striving. She has a full-time job but also started a side business in event planning. Event planning was right up her ally, and she enjoys doing that sort of activity. She likes to show off her skills.

Friend 3 would identify very high in the agreeableness category. She is trustworthy, altruistic, modest, straight forward, and tender minded. She is very stable, quiet/introverted, but often becomes a trusted listener in the friend group. Friend 3 is wise and will be honest, with your best interest in mind.

Friend 4 I would say is also high in agreeableness. She sticks to herself, and works a lot. She is charismatic within the group and is straight forward, trustworthy, and altruistic. Friend 4 appreciates and asks for advice but is also a good listener.

Friend 5 is also extraverted; she is very warm, gregarious, exhibits positive emotions, and likes going out to do anything. She is very bubbly and puts on a show when she tells a story. Friend 5 can be assertive when necessary but only when needed.

It appears most of my friends are extraverted and also fall in the category of agreeableness. I feel this works with my personality because I am introverted, and their extraversion helps balance me as well as stretch my comfort zones. I think I identify in the agreeableness category and appreciate likeminded people.
