Document Summary
Personality assessment: the process of evaluating individual differences: through tests (include written tests, physiological measures, interviews, and observations. This how u ll see if someone is below/above average. measuring, and recording behaviours and personality features. Reliability across: the test u used is going to give the same results no matter how many times ou test somebody, or no matter how many different ways you test. Give a group of ppl the same test in two diff points in times and u shud expect to see a very strong score on their first test and their scores on the second test. If it is the exact same test, they are going to probably score a litte bit higher or better on the second one, and their score will vary somewhat but they will be similar. You wanna see correspondence on the items is because you are measuring the same thing.
