  title: 'Neuroticism',
  shortDescription: 'Neuroticism refers to the tendency to experience negative feelings.',
  description: `Freud originally used the term neurosis to describe a
condition marked by mental distress, emotional suffering, and an
inability to cope effectively with the normal demands of life. He
suggested that everyone shows some signs of neurosis, but that we
differ in our degree of suffering and our specific symptoms of
distress. Today neuroticism refers to the tendency to experience
negative feelings. <br /><br />Those who score high on Neuroticism may
experience primarily one specific negative feeling such as anxiety,
anger, or depression, but are likely to experience several of these
emotions. <br /><br />People high in neuroticism 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. <br /><br />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 neurotic's ability to think clearly, make
decisions, and cope effectively with stress.`,

      title: 'Anxiety',
      text: `The "fight-or-flight" system of the brain of anxious
individuals is too easily and too often engaged. Therefore, people who
are high in anxiety often feel like something dangerous is about to happen.
They may be afraid of specific situations or be just generally fearful.
They feel tense, jittery, and nervous. Persons low in Anxiety are generally
calm and fearless.`

      facet: 2,
      title: 'Anger',
      text: `Persons who score high in Anger feel enraged when
things do not go their way. They are sensitive about being treated fairly
and feel resentful and bitter when they feel they are being cheated.
This scale measures the tendency to feel angry; whether or not the
person expresses annoyance and hostility depends on the individual's
level on Agreeableness. Low scorers do not get angry often or easily.`

    {
      facet: 3,
      title: 'Depression',
      text: `This scale measures the tendency to feel sad, dejected,
and discouraged. High scorers lack energy and have difficulty initiating
activities. Low scorers tend to be free from these depressive feelings.`
    },
    {
      facet: 4,
      title: 'Self-Consciousness',
      text: `Self-conscious individuals are sensitive
about what others think of them. Their concern about rejection and
ridicule cause them to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. They
are easily embarrassed and often feel ashamed. Their fears that others
will criticize or make fun of them are exaggerated and unrealistic, but
their awkwardness and discomfort may make these fears a self-fulfilling
prophecy. Low scorers, in contrast, do not suffer from the mistaken
impression that everyone is watching and judging them. They do not feel
nervous in social situations.`

      title: 'Immoderation',
      text: `Immoderate individuals feel strong cravings and
urges that they have have difficulty resisting. They tend to be
oriented toward short-term pleasures and rewards rather than long-
term consequences. Low scorers do not experience strong, irresistible
cravings and consequently do not find themselves tempted to overindulge.`
