Check to see if there is much difference between the three need scores. If all three need scores are about the same, one need is not stronger than the others. If the need scores vary, one need is higher than the others and it is called the stronger or dominant need, and the lower score is the weaker need. There can also be other combinations, such as two stronger need scores and one weaker need score, or vice versa. Look at your stronger and weaker needs.
ANALYSIS:
Describe the difference between the three need scores for you. Do you agree with the self-assessment tests about your stronger and weaker needs? If so, what information could you add to substantiate the scores? If not, what information could you add to substantiate your alternative position? In a one-page (maximum) argument, explain in more detail the meaning of these scores to you. Take a look at Chapter Two for additional information regarding this self-assessment test. Make at least three assertions about the meaning(s) of this self-assessment test to you and support them with example(s). Write a convincing case that presents a strong defense for your argument.
