and got anxiety issues.
 Conclusions
As seen by low scores in both the Manifest Anxiety Test and the Perceived Stress
Scale, it can be easily deduced that I am not very likely to stress and anxiety in
everyday life. This further highlighted by my low score of neuroticism from the
Big Five Inventory. The BIF also revealed that I am mostly open-minded and
agreeable which also contributes to my low levels of stress. From the Emotional
Intelligence Self-Evaluation, it was that I am self-aware about my own self which
means I would less prone to anxiety or stress caused by low self-esteem. It also
shows that self-motivation and relationship management are in need of a slight
improvement. However the most important fact it reveals is that my social skills
and self-management are in need of definite improvement as I lack significantly in
that regard
