I think we need Pondy to do a statistical report on the average score for each of the categories in the test taken by we RHPers.
so we do have:
neuroticism: Min: 1; max: 4, mean 3 avg: 2.64
Extraversion:min: 1 max 4 mean 2 avg 2.36
Openness: min:3 max:5 mean 4, avg 4
Agreeableness: min1 max 3 mean 2 avg 1.93
Conscientiousness: min 1 max 5 mean 3, avg. 2.64
Persuasiveness: min1, max 5, mean 4.5 avg 4.07

Persuasiveness: min1, max 5, mean 4.5 avg 4.07
We have nobody with very high neuroticism. That could mean two things: either chess Players are not very neurotic (hard to believe for me) or People scoring high in N wouldn't make their result public, or even Refrain from participtaing in the test at all (the more probable Interpretation I think).
We have no very high scorers on extraversion. Surprise to me. The extraverts should be the ones carrying their results into the public.
Openness to new experience: nobody below average. Says probably more about Forum Posters than about anything else 😉
agreeableness: Surprise: nobody beyond average AND Average below "low" we seem to be not the friendliest and most altruistci Group of People 😉
Conscientiousness: nothing remarkable I think
Persuasiveness: VERY high on the median. In fact if we leave out the one Person scoring 1, we are even very high on average....

We sometime used this method at Volvo.

When I was an undergrad I remember taking the MBTI.
I was an ENFJ...I remember feeling content with the assessment. Not thrilled...but content.
Is this WoP test based in science and peer-reviewed research?
ENFJ is one of sixteen personality types by the Myers-Briggs Personality test (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers%E2%80%93Briggs_Type_Indicator) there I am a ENTP btw.

Also same person could possibly re-do the test and get different results. Personally I gave quick answers to all.

Nothing out of the ordinary in my opinion.

It makes some rather broad-brushed abstractive assumptions that might make for an interesting internet test thingy, but it is no substitute for a standard tool like the MBTI that has stood the test of time.

My big peeve about this test is that they seem to conflate someone who tends to "worry" about things with being neurotic. That's incredibly over-simplistic.
