About myPersonality
myPersonality began in 2007 and since then we’ve had over 3 million people taking our personality tests using our application on the Facebook platform.
We’re run by David Stillwell, an academic psychologist, and so have strong academic goals:
- To make real psychological tests, used in actual scientific research, available to as wide an audience as possible. To help people reflect on themselves using the most up to date tools available.
- To advance scientific personality research by both publishing our findings and making our data available to researchers.
- To engage non-scientists by making our research findings available in plain language.
We see ourselves as a mutually beneficial collaboration between scientists and users.
If you’d like to help with any of these goals, or have your own suggestions, we welcome your communication via:

Hi David,
Could you comment about any bias you see in the construction of the test? I found myself uncomfortable with many of the questions that seemed to relate to “conscientiousness” in that there didn’t seem to be a way to show both conscientiousness and flexibility. It felt like a false dichotomy, somewhat, and that in order to score high on conscientiousness one would have to be quite rigid in one’s approach to tasks. My experience is that life’s vicissitudes have moved me from high rigidity and judgmentalism in my youth to greater equanimity and acceptance of imperfection in myself and others – though I hope I’m not done yet! How exactly that makes me less conscientious I don’t know – for it is out of inner peace that I have been able to put aside narrow definitions of what is acceptable. When I look at your world maps, it would be easy to conclude that the East and West are incompatable, and I wonder if this doesn’t arise from a western bias in the nature of the questions. Have you any plans to recraft this to fit a global consciousness, or at least to translate it so that respondents in other countries can put their best feet forward?
