Abstract
The present invention provides a novel approach to matching personality traits, as determined through observational or self-assessment reporting in combination with specific loci and identifiable variations within an individual's nucleotide sequence in the form of SNPs. The present invention further utilizes an individual's cyber footprint, in combination with SNPs and traditional assessment and self-assessment techniques, to define a testing and reinforcement mechanism for strengthening the interdependence and accuracy of each type of reporting in order to bolster the reliability of each alone and in combination.
Claims17
A method of matching personality traits, based on specific loci and identifiable variations within an individual's nucleotide sequence in the form of SNPs, in order to establish a range of congruence between and among individuals comprising the steps of:
- collecting a DNA sample from an individual or a plurality of individuals;
- genotyping, sequencing and analyzing said sample or samples for isolation and sequencing specific SNPs identified as having a correlation, positive or negative, to the expression of a degree of a set of 5 personality traits:
- Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Neuroticism, Openness, and Agreeableness;
- accessing the SNP profile of a data set of individuals via an open-source genome database;
- collecting and downloading the nucleotide sequence of the SNP profile of said data set of individuals and said individual;
- expressing said personality traits as a percentage from 0% to 100%;
- converting each percentage into a numerical value;
- combining numerical values into a numerical value score;
- plotting numerical value score into vector form;
- comparing each collected SNP plotted profile to every other possible SNP plotted profile collected, downloaded and plotted spatially;
- determining the degree of compatibility, via spatial distance, of to said collected, download and plotted SNP profiles as evidenced as a score;
- comparing said individual profile score to every other SNP profile score from a predetermined matrix of scores;
- and
- equating compatibility to proximity and spatial distance of each SNP plotted profile.
A method of determining compatibility of individuals through contextualized genetics wherein personality traits and degrees of congruence are determinable and determined between and among individuals, individuals and groups and groups and groups comprising the steps of:
- collecting a DNA sample from an individual, plurality of individuals and/or groups;
- genotyping, sequencing and analyzing said samples for isolation and sequencing specific SNPs identified as having a correlation, positive or negative, to the expression of a degree of a set of 5 personality traits:
- Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Neuroticism, Openness, and Agreeableness;
- accessing the SNP profile of a data set of individuals and groups via an open-source genome database;
- collecting and downloading the nucleotide sequence of the SNP profile of said data set of individuals and groups;
- expressing said personality traits of individuals and groups as a percentage from 0% to 100%;
- converting each percentage into a numerical value;
- combining numerical values into a numerical value score;
- plotting numerical value score into vector form;
- comparing each collected SNP plotted profile to every other possible SNP plotted profile collected, downloaded and plotted spatially;
- determining the degree of compatibility, via spatial distance, of the said collected, download and plotted SNP profiles as evidenced as a score;
- and
- comparing said individual SNP profile score or group SNP profile score to every other individual SNP profile or group SNP profile score from a predetermined matrix of scores.
