Place each characteristic in an appropriate box‚ which range from most characteristic to least characteristic. Each box only receives one attribute. For example‚ only 2 items may be “most characteristic” of you and your ideal organization while 8 items must be “neither characteristic or uncharacteristic.” You can write the item number in the box rather than the words. It may be easiest to read through the entire list of characteristics looking for extremes first. While this sort may appear difficult‚ it goes quickly if you cross items off as you place them‚ and it is a critical part of the research.
