What is the usefulness of knowing the results from the IPIP-NEO?
For this assignment, you will take a personality test, the IPIP-NEO (International Personality Item Pool Representation of the NEO PI-R).
First, take either the original or short version (i took short) of the IPIP-NEO.
Next, review the results provided from the MMPI-2 and MCMI-III in the Sample Personality Results Report.
Finally, in your response, reflect on the experience of taking the IPIP-NEO. Consider the following questions in your reflection:
What do you think is the usefulness of knowing the results from the IPIP-NEO?
Did you agree with the results?
How would you feel if you received the feedback from the Sample Personality Results Report?
How do you think these results could inform treatment?
Firstly,guidelines for Submission: Your journal submission should be one to two paragraphs in length.
Secondly,submit the assignment as a Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Be sure to cite any references in APA format.
More details
There has been a substantial increase in the use of personality assessment measures constructed using items from the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) such as the 300-item IPIP-NEO (Goldberg, 1999), a representation of the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R; Costa & McCrae, 1992). The IPIP-NEO is free to use and can be modified to accommodate its users’ needs. Despite the substantial interest in this measure, there is still a dearth of data demonstrating its convergence with the NEO PI-R.

The present study represents an investigation of the reliability and validity of scores on the IPIP-NEO. Additionally, we used item response theory (IRT) methodology to create a 120-item version of the IPIP-NEO. Using an undergraduate sample (n = 359), we examined the reliability, as well as the convergent and criterion validity, of scores from the 300-item IPIP-NEO, a previously constructed 120-item version of the IPIP-NEO (Johnson, 2011), and the newly created IRT-based IPIP-120 in comparison to the NEO PI-R across a range of outcomes.
Scores from all 3 IPIP measures demonstrated strong reliability and convergence with the NEO PI-R and a high degree of similarity with regard to their correlational profiles across the criterion variables (rICC = .983, .972, and .976, respectively).
