Recognizing Agreeableness, Hospitality That Influences Daily Behavior

YOGYAKARTA – Agreeableness is one of the five basic elements of personality according to the Big 5 personality theory. The term agreeable is used to describe the level of friendliness, kindness, cooperation, and politeness.

Agreeableness, reported by Very Well Family, Monday, April 4, is aligned with four other traits, namely extraversion, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness. This level of friendliness, will increase when you have grown up. That is, at a certain age period friendliness may be low, especially at puberty.

Friendliness turns out to be related to behavior that makes someone feel pleasant, including the following:

Altruistic

Pleasant people feel good when they help others. Moreover, they consider doing good things and do not see it as self-sacrifice. By helping others, they derive satisfaction from such good deeds.

cooperative

Someone who has high friendliness, will try to avoid confrontation with other people. They like to be seen as peacemakers, but often compromise their own needs and interests to get along with others.

On the other hand, unfriendly people tend to impose their will on others. They use aggression for their own gain. The difference again, friendly people tend to be straightforward and sincere. They don't need to be manipulative, which is what someone seeking to gain may often do.

Simple

A person with a high sociability score rarely claims to be better than others. They are usually humble too, sometimes to the point where they may have lower self-esteem. While those who score low on agreeableness may be more arrogant and show themselves to be superior.

Sympathetic

High sociability is often very sympathetic and easily moved to have care and concern for others. They are also emotionally intelligent and highly empathetic. Often also easily touched by the pain and suffering of others.

Believe in others

Agreeableness also relates to good assumptions. Those with high agreeableness scores tend to assume that other people are well-intentioned and well-intentioned. On the other hand, low scores always view others as selfish and perceive others as threats.

The general behavior above, may occur quite consistently. But keep in mind, personality traits, such as agreeableness, represent only one factor in your overall identity. Even high scores can have some degree of other traits in personality.
