# Personality-Analyzing Websites This Website Uses Twitter to Gauge Each Individual's Personality By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2016-04-15 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/each-individuals-personality References: [bustle](http://www.bustle.com/articles/154962-this-twitter-personality-analysis-website-guesses-your-life-outlook-based-on-your-tweets) & [analyzewords](http://analyzewords.com/science.php) A group of social scientists at the Auckland Medical School and the [University of Texas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Bioinspired-printable-tissues) at Austin created a website that uses [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/founder-mode-checker) to gauge each individual's personality. While there are plenty of tests designed to determine individual personality traits, this website aims to take a different approach. The [personality analysis website](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mbti-characters) is called analyzewords.com and it works by evaluating the kinds of things each user posts on Twitter. More specifically, the website looks at about 400 'junk words' that act as small indicators of the user's attitudes, opinions and interactions. As the researchers explain, "junk words have proven to be powerful markers of people’'s psychological states," making tweets a valuable tool for gauging one's overall health. While the program is not perfect, it serves as a different way to conceptualize each individual's personality. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Multimedia](https://www.trendhunter.com/multimedia) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Personality Analysis:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop more advanced algorithms and methodologies to accurately analyze and interpret social media data for personality assessment. - **Social Media Analytics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced tools and platforms for businesses to utilize social media data for targeted marketing and personalized customer experiences based on personality traits. - **Psychological Insights:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the integration of personality analysis into mental health diagnostics and therapeutic interventions, leveraging social media data to assess individuals' psychological well-being. ### Who This Affects Most - **Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create user-friendly AI-powered applications that leverage personality analysis to enhance personalization in various domains, such as e-commerce, entertainment, and online dating. - **Marketing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop sophisticated marketing strategies that leverage personality analysis to create highly targeted and impactful campaigns across digital channels. - **Healthcare:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Implement personality analysis tools and frameworks in mental health practices to enhance diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient outcomes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI-Powered Social Personality Quizzes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-insta-personality.md) - [Personality Assessment Quizzes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personality-spectrum.md) - [Personality-Deciphering AI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gemini-ais-persona.md) - [Color Psychology Tests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorme.md) - [Personality Insight Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knowyourpersonality.md) - [Personality Insight Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psydi.md) - [Personality-Based Art Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soulgem.md) - [AI Profile Insights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reddit-roast.md) - [Personality Insight Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pattern-50.md)
