Answer:

come across to others as decisive and opinionated

Step-by-step explanation:

The Five-Factor Model of personality is a model of the structure of personality according to which human personality can be described using five broad dimensions: Extroversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness.

The main characteristics of the dimensions are:

  • Extroversion: Outgoing, socially confident behavior. Extroverts are sociable, talkative and enjoy being the center of attention, they talk about their opinions with the rest of people and are confident on them. Introverts are more quiet and prefer to be on their own.
  • Agreeableness: Individuals who score highly on agreeableness are friendly and co-operative, they are trusting of others and are more altruistic and sympathetic. People who score low on this dimension are less concerned with pleasing other people or making friends, they tend to be more suspicious and are less charitable.
  • Conscientiousness: People who are conscientious are more aware of their actions and the consequences of their behavior than people who are unconscientious. They feel a sense of responsibility towards other people and are careful with their duties. People who score low on this dimension are less careful and are less concerned about tidiness and punctuality.
  • Neuroticism: People with high neuroticism are persistent worriers. They are fearful and often feel anxious, over-thinking their problems focusing on the negative aspects of them. They tend to become frustrated and angry if things don't go as they wish. People who score low are less preoccupied and are able to remain more calm under stressful situations.
  • Openness: Willingness to try new activities. People with higher levels of openness enjoy artistic and cultural experiences and are more open to unfamiliar cultures and customs. People with low levels of openness are wary of uncertainty and the unknown and feel uncomfortable in unfamiliar situations and prefer familiar environments.

In this example, the question is how people who score high in extroversion are. We know that people who score high are outgoing and social and are confident in their opinions. Therefore, the correct answer would be: come across to others as decisive and opinionated.

Note: People who score high on extraversion do not have little interest in influencing other people, thus this cannot be the correct answe.

The ones who prefer to work by themselves are people who score low in extraversion.

The ones that tend to take other's inputs into consideration when making decisions are people who score high on conscientiousness.
