Okay, fair enough. They certainly have me pegged with the emotional stability issues:
People low in emotional stability are emotionally reactive. They respond emotionally to events that would not affect most people, and their reactions tend to be more intense than normal. They are more likely to interpret ordinary situations as threatening, and minor frustrations as hopelessly difficult. Their negative emotional reactions tend to persist for unusually long periods of time, which means they are often in a bad mood. These problems in emotional regulation can diminish a ones ability to think clearly, make decisions, and cope effectively with stress.

Yech, I’m in the 99th percentile on ‘openness’? That weird disclaimer about it – about how shrinks want you to be open, but it’s good for cops to be close-minded.
I guess this is a nation of cops.
