Animal Personality Types [Infographic] - Free Printable

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a grid with 4 columns and many rows of words. Each column has a list of personality traits or behaviors. The instructions say:

> “In the space provided, identify the degree to which each following characteristic or behavior most accurately describes you at work.”

And then it says:

> “2 = not at all | 1 = somewhat | 2 = mostly | 3 = very much”

Wait — that seems like a typo. It probably means:

> 0 = not at all
> 1 = somewhat
> 2 = mostly
> 3 = very much

Because otherwise “2 = not at all” and “2 = mostly” doesn’t make sense. Also, later it says “TOTAL SCORE” for each column, so we’re supposed to rate ourselves on each word in each column, add up the scores per column, and then compare them.

But here’s the thing: this is a self-assessment test. There’s no single “correct” answer — it depends on how *you* see yourself.

However, since you asked me to “solve the problem accurately,” and this is likely part of a class activity where you’re supposed to fill it out honestly, I’ll show you how to do it correctly, using an example.

---

Let’s pretend you’re filling this out for yourself.

You go row by row, and for each word, you decide how much it describes you at work.

For example:

- In Column 1: “Like control” → Maybe you’d say “mostly” → score = 2
- “Confident” → “very much” → score = 3
- “Fast” → “somewhat” → score = 1
- ...and so on.

Then you add up all the scores in Column 1 → that’s your TOTAL SCORE for Column 1.

Same for Columns 2, 3, and 4.

After you have all four total scores, you look at which one is highest — that tells you your dominant style (according to the DISC model, which this test is based on).

The top of the page says:

> “It’s never too late! Discover your true PERSONALITY. This test can help you save your marriage in 5 days!”

That’s just marketing fluff — ignore that part. Focus on the scoring.

Also, note: the instruction says “record the totals in the appropriate graph space” — but there’s no graph shown here. Probably on the next page (which isn’t included). So for now, we just calculate the totals.

---

Since I don’t know how *you* would rate yourself, I’ll create a sample set of ratings to show you how to compute the totals.

Let’s assume these ratings for demonstration:

Column 1:

Like control → 2
Confident → 3
Fast → 1
Fearless → 2
Problem solver → 3
Bold → 2
Competitive → 1
Strong-Willed → 2
Self-starter → 3
Demanding → 1
Direct → 2
Open Change → 1
Decisive → 3
Energetic → 2
Challenge Seeker → 2
Productive → 3
Results-Oriented → 2
Impatient → 1
Independent → 3

Add them up:

2+3=5; +1=6; +2=8; +3=11; +2=13; +1=14; +2=16; +3=19; +1=20; +2=22; +1=23; +3=26; +2=28; +2=30; +3=33; +2=35; +1=36; +3=39

→ Column 1 Total = 39

Column 2:

Enthusiastic → 2
Talkative → 3
Sociable → 2
Persuasive → 1
When ready → 2
Fun-loving → 3
Optimistic → 2
Likes Idea → 1
Cheerful → 2
Team player → 3
Friendly → 2
Popular → 1
Expressive → 2
Group oriented → 3
Spontaneous → 1
Inspired → 2
Emotional → 1
Outgoing → 3

Add them:

2+3=5; +2=7; +1=8; +2=10; +3=13; +2=15; +1=16; +2=18; +3=21; +2=23; +1=24; +2=26; +3=29; +1=30; +2=32; +1=33; +3=36

→ Column 2 Total = 36

Column 3:

Sensitive → 1
Calm → 2
Non-demanding → 2
Good listener → 3
Reliable → 2
Helpful → 2
Thoughtful → 3
Patient → 2
Considerate → 3
Loyal → 2
Even-tempered → 2
Gives in → 1
Moderate → 2
Steady change → 1
By-the-book → 2
Sympathetic → 3
Accommodating → 2
Tolerant → 2
Kind → 3

Add them:

1+2=3; +2=5; +3=8; +2=10; +2=12; +3=15; +2=17; +3=20; +2=22; +2=24; +1=25; +2=27; +1=28; +2=30; +3=33; +2=35; +2=37; +3=40

→ Column 3 Total = 40

Column 4:

Conscientious → 3
Logical → 2
Practical → 2
Precise → 3
Perfectionistic → 2
Detailed → 2
Analytical → 3
Persistent → 2
Sensitive → 1 ← wait, already used? No, different column. But let’s keep going.

Actually, looking back — Column 4 starts with:

Conscientious
Logical
Practical
Precise
Perfectionistic
Detailed
Analytical
Persistent
Sensitive ← Hmm, maybe duplicate? Or typo? Let’s continue as written.

Sensitive → 1
Compliant → 2
Careful → 3
Orderly → 2
Conservative → 2
Diplomatic → 1
Insightful → 2
Systematic → 3
Scheduled → 2
Satisfying → 1

Wait — let’s recount Column 4 properly from the image:

From the image, Column 4 words:

Conscientious
Logical
Practical
Precise
Perfectionistic
Detailed
Analytical
Persistent
Sensitive
Compliant
Careful
Orderly
Conservative
Diplomatic
Insightful
Systematic
Scheduled
Satisfying

That’s 18 items.

Let’s assign sample scores:

Conscientious → 3
Logical → 2
Practical → 2
Precise → 3
Perfectionistic → 2
Detailed → 2
Analytical → 3
Persistent → 2
Sensitive → 1
Compliant → 2
Careful → 3
Orderly → 2
Conservative → 2
Diplomatic → 1
Insightful → 2
Systematic → 3
Scheduled → 2
Satisfying → 1

Now add:

3+2=5; +2=7; +3=10; +2=12; +2=14; +3=17; +2=19; +1=20; +2=22; +3=25; +2=27; +2=29; +1=30; +2=32; +3=35; +2=37; +1=38

→ Column 4 Total = 38

---

So our sample totals:

- Column 1: 39
- Column 2: 36
- Column 3: 40
- Column 4: 38

Highest is Column 3 → 40

According to DISC theory (which this test is based on):

- Column 1 = Dominance (D)
- Column 2 = Influence (I)
- Column 3 = Steadiness (S)
- Column 4 = Conscientiousness (C)

So if Column 3 is highest, your style is “Steadiness” — you’re patient, reliable, good listener, team player, etc.

---

Final Answer:
Based on the sample ratings above, the total scores are:
Column 1: 39
Column 2: 36
Column 3: 40
Column 4: 38
The highest score is Column 3 (40), indicating a Steadiness (S) personality style.
