Part II: TEST YOURSELF (This is NOT a diagnosis–it’s merely identification of some behavioral, cognitive, or emotional similarities)
For some reason, this link does not work which is too bad because it was interesting….Maybe in the future, it will work again so I will keep it here for now: http://www.4degreez.com/misc/personality_disorder_test.mvLinks to an external site.

What were your results?

Do you think personality is a behavioral choice? Think about this question carefully before responding.
