Personal Identity

Discussion Questions

These questions are just to help get the discussion going. They do not need to be discussed in order and conversation outside of the bounds of these questions is welcome.

​

More questions will be added as event approaches. 

  1. How much do the roles you take on (relationally, professionally, academically, culturally) contribute to your personal sense of identity?

  2. Did your results from the TIPI below, and their comparison to the population as a whole give you any insight into your identity? Did you do any further reading on the TIPI or "the big five" personality traits?

  3. Is your sense of identity now different than at other times in your life? What caused these changes? What contributed to unchanging aspects of your identity? Were times of shifting identity difficult for you?

  4. What social institutions and cultural factors influence you the most? 

Discussion Background Materials

Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI)

It should only take you a couple of minutes or less to take this test. The TIPI has been extensively researched, and, within the limits of its brevity and simplicity, correlates with the results of more involved personality testing. Several popular personality inventories are owned by corporations and not subject to outside study (ex: Myers Briggs) or are somewhat pseudoscientific (Enneagram) making it hard to find objective research on their efficacy.
