The Big 5 is the dominant paradigm in personality science due to the model's extensive replicability and predictive validity.
I regularly max the scores for threat-resilience (the inverse of depression, irritability, and moodiness). I regularly max the scores for creativity, curiosity, and willingness to entertain new ideas; high openness isn't strictly a benefit because a strong internal drive towards exploration/novelty exists at the cost of routine. This is buffered by conscientiousness, in that I prefer some form of flexible structure or can be uber-routine/diligence/attention to detail. I am generally not cooperation-at-all-costs; I am able to be socially cohesive or completely dominant. Social interactivity significantly drains me.
Related to threat-resilience: sometime around 2024 a stress test administered by a cardiology specialist placed me within the 'Elite Athlete' category. I've reached the annoying-to-deal-with milestone where the amount of lean muscle mass I have means I can't use weighing scales - a 25 BMI places me in an unhealthily low bodyfat % range.

The Dark Triad is an extensively replicated risk-mitigation assessment for positions of authority.
The average population is 3.00±0.65 for Machiavellianism & Narcissism, 2.00±0.65 for Psychopathy.
In the context of a normal distribution: my scores indicate a 30% higher than normal manipulative cynicism. I have average vanity, self-superiority, entitlement. I have a minimum 90% lower than average callousness, impulsivity, criminality.

The ECR scale is a scientifically sound measure of adult attachment. It can predict dysfunctional/obsessive behavior within organizational heirarchies and professional relationships. None of my behavior is able to be characterized as dysfunctionally attached.
A 2001 study indicates replicability issues with this test, particularly with the "analysis" subscore. Funnily enough, my only subscore that isn't at the highest level is the one in question. I was given this test in both Logic and Chemical Biology courses 15 years after this public criticism, so I don't know if anything has been subsequently modified to be more rigorous. Nevertheless: alternative, more behaviorally-anchored assessment methods provide more defensible measures. Also, obviously these scores are improved with any nootropic supplementation modifying my neurogenetics between 2017-2020, as 2020 is the year my brain reached the commonly considered steady-state maturation ;)
