I have absolutely no experience with personality tests, although I find this type of thing very intriguing. I am anxious to see what the results are to the personality test I will soon complete.
I assume, if I had to rank the different personalities from the one most like me, to the one least like me, the list would go as follows:
Idealist
Rational
Guardian
Artisan
I consider myself primarily an idealist because my integrity and set of ethical values take precedent over rules and regulations. While I don't set out to break rules, I find times when breaking them is more acceptable than betraying my ideals. I also search for solutions to problems that coincide with my ideals, even if they are unorthodox or don't strictly obey the rules.
Secondly, I would consider myself a rational, because I would be more likely to break a rule to do what I believe is right than follow it merely to conform. There are many times when I feel regulations interfere and inhibit the right outcomes from occurring. If I could, I would probably go back in time to the early twentieth century, where a man still had some freedom to act upon judgment... back to a time when "justice" wasn't some complicated system that designated "fitting" punishments to actions. For example, sentencing a murderer to 30 years in prison doesn't give closure to a woman who has needlessly lost a child.
I guess Guardian would come next, because as long as a rule doesn't jeopardize my ideals, and I find that it achieves the right ends, I will follow it without question. I also have a strong sense of duty and take responsibility for my actions.
Artisan would come next. While rules aren't always the most important thing, I don't just make hasty decisions for an effective payoff. My disobedience is structured - oriented around something consistent and important. I don't view things as they are, but how they could be. My actions most often reflect foresight, not an immediate and spontaneous solution.
