Behavioral Observation:
The subject was wearing her white uniform during the test administration. She
uses dull shoes, black foot sock, and in a pony tail hairdo. Single bracelet was the only
accessory that the subject was using. She has colored nails - neatly done. Fairly
hygienic with a little clumsiness can be observed from the subject. She looks at her
stated age.
The subject sits comfortably in her chair before the tests were given. She sits
with her one hand on the armchair holding her pen and the other hand in her phone
near her pocket. She was vigilantly watching her co-examinee around her and smiling at
them. The other examinee was smiling back at her and she return her eyes on her
phone.
The subject was expecting the examination to be done. She was cooperatively
interacting with the examiner and to the other examinees. She voluntarily accepts to
take the examination and understands its purposes. She was attentively listening while
the examiner was giving the instruction. She was holding her pencil a little hard that it
almost bends on her hand. She was watching the blank figure in front of her which is the
back page of the test. She was shock at first when she saw the first figure. Her eyes got
a little big, she straighten her sits and changes her relax facial expression into some
serious looking face. But as time passes by, she’s back on her relax position. Not so
straight in a chair with her both hands in the paper while making the sketches gracefully.
She was smiling; she looks relax and at ease while mimicking the figures. She follows
her eyes on the figure that was being passed. She was curious about the next figure to
come – she says.
She found it easy to draw the pointed figures but found it difficult for those with
curves and circles. She’s not taking a lot of time in making the figures. It takes only
about less than or couple of minutes for her to draw the figure shows to her. She was in
focus looking at the picture given to her and responsively mimicking every details of the
figure as much as possible. Her eyes were observing every angle of the paper that was
shown to her. She doesn’t make any erasures or double lines. She pauses in every
angles and end of the line.
She shows minor uncomfortable gestures and movement. Possible reason was
the ambiance of the room. She continued the drawing and turning the paper upside
down once in a while. She was focus on the drawing and not quite talks much.
The subject only speaks after finishing all the figures. She says “ang hirap naman
ng mga drawing” then keeps on complaining about the figures and gives her criticism
about how the figures were located in those pieces of paper. She openly shares her
experiences while making the figure and states them very clear. Her hands were hard
and cold after making the drawing with some sweats on it. She then gets her powder
and rubs her face by her handkerchief and walks out of the room and went to the ladies
room.

she was ashamed in front of the class for giving the wrong answer in her teacher. She
was bullied since then by her so called friends. After the event, she was barely talks to
people and starts isolating her from the environment. But in due time, she again makes
friends and choosing friends among her friends and begging for their approval.

Egocentricity
She is not comfortable in situations which she’s not the center of it. Being the
eldest in the family was never an easy way for her. She was always being praised
specially by her family. The feeling that she always seeks. Her childhood memory was
something she never forgets. She loves it when her relative gave her something like a
gift when she sings or dances. Her parents always praise her for doing well and giving
her what she wanted.

Vivacious
The subject was always been active. She joins school activities, participates in
every way possible. She was different at home. Once in the house she only makes her
household choir and went to bed or watches the television. Her parents were always out
on work and her siblings were attending their classes. Also her being eldest child made
gave her authority over her siblings and gives her the feeling in charge. In school she
always tried her best to join the co-curricular activities.

Disingenuous
It was in her grade school where her trusted friends betrayed her. She always
has this thought of friends will always be there for her, in better or for worst. But after
her friends laugh at her in her wrong answer, she felt alone for the first time and
betrayed. She’s been cheated by her not too long suitor in her high school. Because of
her experiences, she learned that humans are just not capable of caring her. She starts
choosing her friends and being careful of words and story to tell.
Infantile
The subject is only 19 years old. Though her intelligence is said to be at average,
her manner of making friends belongs to a 9 year old child. She makes herself look
child and act childish things. Clingy to her friends and demands a lot.

Manipulative
In her high school years, the subject engages in an uncommitted relationship
with a guy and though it was true love. She does almost everything to make her partner
happy. After a month, she discovers that the guy was flirting with the other girls in her
school. She confronted him and the guy chooses not her. The even made her think that
everyone does not deserve to be trusted. She then uses people in her advantage and
never again trusted anyone.

Impatience
The subject has a high level of vigor. She does not stay in one place for a
long period of time. She wants to do things in a fast-pace. In her early childhood, after
her mom bears her younger siblings, she was treated differently. Her parents always
want her to do household choir before she can go and play. So as a child she then
made those obligations given to her fast so that she can play with the other kids. When
her parents saw her playing without finishing her choir, she was spank and humiliated in
front of her playmates.

Attention Seeking
Being the eldest in the family, the subject was once the center of attention in
the family. Her parents always affirm her for doing good things, even the little one. But
after her siblings was born, she became less and less noticed by her parents and often
times only when she made mistakes that she was given attention.

Interpersonal conflicts
Making friends is never been an easy job for the subject. She says that she was
intimidated by the presence of others and often times she just not talk to those who
doesn’t make the first move.
