Another personality test
July 12th, 2008 . by JoyceIf you enjoy taking quizzes, this one is available at the BBC – Science and Nature: Human Body and Mind site. I saw this quiz over at my friend Storyteller’s blog.

More about Providers
Providers like to make plans with other people and then to work with them towards achievable goals in a fun, harmonious environment. They support people that are important to them and respect their individuality.
Provider is the most common personality type for women in the UK, according to a nationwide survey.
Providers have traditional values and support order and responsible behaviour. They enjoy social events, particularly family celebrations, and often help plan them. Providers work hard to avoid conflict, but they will state their beliefs when they think it is suitable.
In situations where they can’t use their talents or are unappreciated, Providers may doubt their abilities and focus solely on the needs of other people. Under extreme stress, Providers may withdraw completely and become excessively critical of themselves and others.
Providers prefer warm, face-to-face communication and often express their ideas by telling stories from their own lives.
I am a Nurturer! This was a fun quiz. I love personality tests. I’m posting this in my blog, with a link to you!
Grace’s last blog post..You can’t do it here, you can’t do it anywhere!
Thanks for the linky-love! I enjoyed reading your results here too. I suspect you and my sister have a lot in common if this profile fits you at all. She’s a ‘provider’ who nurtures everyone ;–)
On another subject, my new Dell seems to do things my old laptop didn’t and one of those things is that it fills in my identifying data for me. On most blogs I can change this … choosing which URL I wish to leave behind, but for some reason when I click change on your blog … it won’t allow me to do that … so CommentLuv will always get my last Small Reflections post and never from my other blogs. FYI … I just posted my response to Rebecca’s question WHY I BLOG on my NEW site. I wonder if I can use HTML codes to leave the link myself? I guess we’ll see what happens when I press submit.
