Step 1. Choose a fictional character from media — that is, a character from the movies, tv, video games, books, plays, etc.
Step 2. Let us know where you think they are on each of the ten scales — low, medium, or high. Using 2-3 sentences per scale, let us know why.
For example, I could choose the character of Iron Man. For the scale of Social introversion I could write:
“Low — Iron Man is frequently talking to others around him, from friends to strangers. He often refuses to talk about emotions, but he seems to love talking to and being around other people. Much of his actions seem to involve drawing attention to himself, such as the press conference where he announces his identity to the entire world.”

To prepare:

- Focus on the APA ethics codes and the AP-LS specialty guidelines for forensic psychologists’.
- Go to NC website and review its legal and ethical guidelines.
- Consider any legal guidelines that may be in conflict with the ethical guidelines.
