Are you supposed to answer personality quizzes with your natural instinct or your taught behavior?

I've never had a therapist or a psych doc or anything, but I've always been confounded by how to answer personality quizzes and psych questionnaires online.

Say a questions asks you to rate yourself "You are often considered the life of the party", and the truth is, sure I can be fun and a great host, but that's because I've been raised to be friendly and sociable, but really I just want to curl in a fetal position in my bed and netflix all day alone.

So the question is, am I supposed to answer a psych question by how I've been conditioned to act, or what my natural preference is?
