Abstract
The phenomenon of 'Worried-Well' is a form of tendency of high worry and anxiety as a result of the development of a virus or disease. In more detail, individuals with 'Worried-Well' will tend to have a fear of everything, and assume that they have a disease or have medical problems, despite the fact that the individual is physically healthy. This phenomenon is not something rare, but quite difficult to identify. The existence of the COVID-19 pandemic has further increased the prevalence of the 'Worried-Well' phenomenon, due to the anxiety that is formed related to their health, disruption of mental health services, and the inability of the health care system to diagnose underlying psychosocial factors (Kini, et al., 2020). Individuals with 'Worried-Well' will tend to self-diagnose their anxiety about their illness, especially with the emphasis on the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (MIST, 2020). If not treated immediately, it will have a greater impact on health, both physically and mentally. Therefore, researchers are interested in discussing in more detail the use of the EPPS personality profile as a form of early analysis of the 'Worried-Well' individual, so that interventions can be carried out quickly and precisely. This study was conducted using a literature review method that aims to determine the personality profile of individuals who can refer to the "Worried-Well" behavior through the EPPS personality test, and to detect individuals who have the potential to experience Worried-Well early.

Abstrak
Bagi banyak orang, gaya belajar merupakan salah satu faktor penentu keberhasilan dalam pendidikan tinggi. Sampai saat ini, belum ada metode tunggal untuk mengkategorikan gaya belajar yang diterima secara umum, namun beberapa skala dan klasifikasi potensial sedang digunakan sebagai alternatif, salah satunya penelitian ini. Sehingga penelitian ini ditujukan untuk mengetahui apa saja dan bagaimana kecenderungan gaya belajar yang berpotensi dimiliki oleh masing-masing individu. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan fakta dari sebuah studi bahwa tes kepribadian bukanlah faktor penentu dari gaya belajar individu, setiap individu memiliki keunikan dan ciri belajarnya masing-masing, tipe kepribadian dapat menjadi rujukan dan bukanlah suatu penentu khusus akan gaya belajar yang dimiliki individu. Perlu adanya eksplorasi lebih lanjut untuk dapat menentukan gaya belajar yang sesuai bagi setiap individu. Namun, tes kepribadian MBTI yang mengelompokkan individu menjadi total 16 tipe kepribadian ini menjadi rujukan dalam mengukur kesesuaian antara ciri gaya belajar yang dimiliki individu dengan tipe kepribadian MBTI..
