NEW IDEA DEVELOPMENT

IDEA DEVELOPMENT 

After a while of research on the coronavirus which was thought to be my research topic for 505, I realised that I actually would like to research on something more personal, rather than a social issue. I have been really interested in humanity and would like to dig deep into the theme and educate myself with more knowledge about it. Plus, I have done quite a few projects on social issues since Year1 and I feel like do something more abstract would be more interesting and refreshing. Also, I might want to leave the coronavirus vs racism idea for next year's 10 briefs. Therefore, I made up my mind and decided to go for the theme "DARK FACTOR OF PERSONALITY" which is kind of new to me. I came across this idea a few days ago when a friend sent me the D factor personality test. It aroused my curiosity in the dark traits of one's personality. The test can definitely help me to know more about my true self, as well as letting my friends know more about me. I therefore analysed a few points below.

After doing the test, I sent the link to my other friends and we talked about our results for quite a while and sort of analysed each of our personality based on our actions in daily lives and how we treated each other. The conversation was really interesting and I thought the idea of the test is really useful for people to know more about themselves. People always have the tendency to listen to love listening to praises rather than lectures, telling them what they did wrong. I thought that spreading the idea of D factor can definitely help people to admit the their dark personality traits and help them to accept their true selves. 

POTENTIAL OUTCOMES 

For my final outcome, my aim is to have more people know about the D factors of personality and help them to know more about themselves and even people around them. I think that it is important for us to realised the dark side of ourselves and try to cope with it and accept our true selves.

In what kind of circumstances will make you want to know more about yourself? Or make you want others to know more about you? 

1. Play cards
2. A self help book? A tiny one? 
3. A drinking game? Board game? 
4. A series of images(dark traits personality)  that create a sense of disgust and discomfort?
