Ryan W. and Jana L. recently launched their Objective Personality Database on Airtable. The database contains all known celebrities typed by Objective Personality (Dave and/or Shannon Powers) as well as consenting community members who have agreed to allow their types to be included. The data from this database is the source for most of the Objective Personality data in our Subjective Personality Database.
Tip for mobile users: if you are using Chrome on mobile you can use the desktop version of the site by clicking the 3 dots and switching to desktop mode. The database seems to run much better for me this way even if it is still a bit awkward to use. You will need to turn this off again when you visit other sites to return to your normal mobile experience. Alternativity, check out our mobile friendly version of the database below.

Another popular personality test is your Enneagram type. This test also consists of 100 questions to determine if you are one of 9 personality types. You can have one main personality and the wings of others. For example, you could be a type 7 with an 8 wing. According to the list below, that would be an Enthusiast, with a Challenger wing.
The personality database makes it easy to put your own personality types into an account and find others with those same types. For example, if you have a Myers Brigs Type as INFP, and an enneagram 6, you can create a profile surrounding the two. There are also options to go even deeper and more technical into the different personality types.
After creating your profile you can become a part of a community of people who are just as intrigued by personality types as you are. You can connect with others who share, in a way, the way your brain works, and those who are polar opposites no matter how different they may seem from you on the surface. Personalities bring people together and can showcase differences and similarities in a way that is unique to almost any other platform or idea. As a database, it caters to those that love statistics while also catering to creative and non-linear lovers.
If you are a personality connoisseur and want to use it for your next writing project, this personality database can be the answer to all of your questions. Incorporating the Personality Database into future writing projects can force you to not only think outside of the box but learn more about yourself in the process.
A primary debate in sport psychology is whether sport participation works to form an individual's or if people that acquire specific personality traits are drawn to certain sports and the primary goal of my study is to make progress in answering the question of "can the personality profile of athletes in one sport be reliably different from those in another sport" and also to look at the connection between temperament and personality and their stability throughout one's life. This study involves two phases to measure these differences. the first phase investigated the personality differences regarding the "Big Five Theory" of personality using the NEO-PI-R, a personality inventory. The second phase examined the stability of three temperament dimensions in relation to their related personality factors. Parents of my participants were contacted and asked to respectively fill out the IBQ-R regarding the child's first year of birth. Findings show that team and individual sport athletes have relatively similar mean scores for all five of the personality factors but this data is insignificant. Others findings portray no statistical significance between the effects of exposure to sports and temperament on personality, but the graphs generated from the ANOVAs suggest that exposure is more of a predictor of personality than temperament. Although my results are all insignificant due to the small number of participants, they suggest that exposure to sports (environmental factor) has more effect on shaping personality than temperament (biological factor) does. My research provides support for many theories that suggest environment plays a significant and essential role in the development of personality.
Little is known about the correlates and potential causes of very early drinking. The authors proposed this risk theory: (a) pubertal onset is associated with increased levels of positive urgency (the tendency to act rashly when experiencing intensely positive mood), negative urgency (the tendency to act rashly when distressed), and sensation seeking; (b) those traits predict increased endorsement of high-risk alcohol expectancies; (c) the expectancies predict drinker status among fifth graders; and (d) the apparent influence of positive urgency, negative urgency, and sensation seeking on drinker status is mediated by alcohol expectancies. The authors conducted a concurrent test of whether the relationships among these variables were consistent with the theory in a sample of 1,843 fifth grade students. In a well-fitting structural model, their hypotheses were supported. Drinker status among fifth graders is not just a function of context and factors external to children: it is predictable from a combination of pubertal status, personality characteristics, and learned alcohol expectancies.
