Criticism

Do you find yourself cringing when evaluation time comes around? Can you handle a little negative feedback in a conscientious and professional manner, or do you find yourself having to resist the urge to bite your critic's head off? Being able to accept and effectively put constructive criticism to use is essential if you wish to correct bad habits and improve yourself. Knowing what you're doing wrong and what you could be doing better will allow you to reach your greatest potential. Obviously, there are some people who purposefully use criticism as a tool to hurt and offend, but such forms of malicious judgment are not considered constructive and therefore do not apply to this test.

This sensitivity to criticism test is made up of two types of questions: scenarios and self-assessment. For each scenario, answer according to how you would most likely behave in a similar situation. For the self-assessment questions, indicate the degree to which the given statements apply to you. In order to receive the most accurate results, please answer each question as honestly as possible.
