You do not need the Premium Report and do not have to pay anything to complete the online assessment. After you have completed the assessment, select the ‘No, just give me my results’ link. This link will take you to a page that will tell you how you scored on each of the five traits in the Big Five theory.
In addition to the required resources, go to the University of Arizona Global Campus Library and research a minimum of one scholarly source on the trait model of personality (part one of the paper) and one scholarly resource on the big five theory of personality (part two of the paper).
All required and outside sources should be properly cited in your paper.

Provide an overview of the trait model of personality in which you identify at least one principal theory and its theorist (i.e., Allport, Cattell, or Eysenck) associated with the model. (Please note that the trait model is more than just the Big Five—this part of the paper should cover the general history and evolution of the model.)
Compare and contrast the basic assumptions of the trait model and the basic assumptions of one of the three models discussed in Weeks 1 and 2 regarding the theorist’s explanations of personality development.
Use the scholarly sources you researched for this assignment as well as this week’s required sources to support your statements.
In the second part of your paper,
Describe each of the five traits included in the Big Five model:
extroversion
