(a) Highly introverted, since he is uncomfortable with most people and often prefers to be alone. High on neuroticism, since he often suffers from intense anxiety. Moderately high on psychoticism, since his painful problems keep him focused on himself and make it difficult for him to care about other people. (b) Highly introverted, high on neuroticism, low on agreeableness (he is very wary of other people, and is usually too preoccupied with his own problems to care about helping them), highly conscientious, and fairly low on openness (although he is sometimes creative, he often tries to reduce anxiety by conforming and being what others want). As Big Five theory would expect from his high scores on neuroticism and conscientiousness, he is obsessive-compulsive. (See section 10 in the Appendix.) (c) Are you likely to answer accurately? Or might you try to fool yourself and/or other people into thinking that you are psychologically healthier than you really are?
