Psych test

Featured Replies

I found out the most... interesting, test I've had online. I have no idea how it works, but I know two people whose results were spot on.

 

http://www.hypnoid.com/psytest2.html

 

 

My results:

Handy in the real world manipulation of objects and events, you are easily enthused by practical projects. You often ignore or conveniently forget rules and boundaries that limit your freedom. This need for freedom extends even to the personal sphere and though you are kind and gentle, you will often be hard to pin down to a monogamous lifestyle. Because you tend to verbalize so seldom, you can be seen as phlegmatic or impassive. In moments of high tension you can often surprise those around you with a lighthearted or humorous remark. Because of your facility with the physical world, you are often engaged in sports that require dexterity, such as motorcycling or hang gliding. You will rarely have time for flights of fancy or unproductive discussion. Constraints on your freedom will be regarded as a personal attack.

 

Blustering through the world with the finesse of a thunderstorm, you are a natural leader, a creator of consensus. You will often plan out the future in deliberate and at times frustrating detail. This ability to create and to plan is sometimes expressed as a facility for the telling of tall tales.Your friends often find themselves assigned tasks or roles within the group. This can be very useful when action is called for and equally annoying when the idea at hand is rest and relaxation. When challenged, however, you can become cold and argumentative. Your understanding of the world is deliberate and well thought out. Your emotion comes in two varieties, either restrained and sincere, or else melodramatic and loud and usually inauthentic. Affection for you is best expressed through action, by doing things for the people you care about. This need to always be proactive can lead you to feel that there is no end to the trouble in your life.

 

some stuff I could see fitting (I will let you folks guess them) but others are LOL

Though quiet on the outside, you are often the hidden hero; someone who rushes in when needed and then after the emergency is over fades back into the woodwork. Because of this sense of duty and honor, you can also on occasion be rigid in your viewpoint and unyielding in the face of other ways of thinking. Usually cynical and rarely trusting of others, you maintain a small set of intimate friends. These bonds are stronger than most. You are always grounded in the present moment. Your close bonds can also lead to clique-ishness and a tendency to gossip about those who are deemed less worthy. You are an integrative thinker, collecting data from a wide range of sources and applying it to your worldview. You can become overly task-oriented. In stressful situations you often withdraw from the world to seek peace in contemplation. You often seem cold and withdrawn. Often you will withdraw rather than verbalize your discontent.

Often concerned with right and wrong, and punctilious in expressing it, you are best represented by the Customs Agent or the IRS inspector. Initially seen by others as cold or uncaring, you are difficult for those more spontaneous members of society to understand. You are extremely stable, responsible and dependable. You manifest an amazing ability to concentrate on the issue at hand, and are difficult to distract from issues that are important. You manifest a great sense of loyalty to your employers and your government. You tend to show love through a display of committed works, believing that actions speak louder than words. You are also resistant to change and tend to believe that the old ways are best. If a behavior has been successful in the past, why would anyone want to change? You work best in a controlled environment.

 

I'm gonna file this with my taxes next year in hopes the IRS will sympathize with me.

 

So is hang gliding a lot of fun Blasko? :P

Although I did enjoy some of the questions.

 

This oh so much this. These sorts of things are toys and nothing more and make a mockery of professional psychology.

 

Betsy makes a mockery of professional psychology. Why would anyone love a penguin? :angry:

Furrydom is a well-known disease. Although, I guess this would be Featherydom.

That's what I think it's the most likely scenario... Same story as horoscopes and fortune tellers. However, I have an anarchist friend whose result heavily mention his unwillingness to follow any kind of establishment or order, and someone else whose real psychological tests have shown he likes stability and predictability above all else, as well as logical analysis, were traits reflected on this test. Hell, when he showed me the results at first (without telling me the source) I thought they were from an actual test, due to them being very accurate.

 

Then again, I might just be using confirmation bias and a pretty narrow sample :P

 

Don't think I'll ever do hang-gliding as well. :(

thought it was the need to be dutch

 

and she clearly aint that

These outcomes are of course usually in general terms, much like a horoscope, I suspect that everyone will feel that every description would be fitting (if they got it). Having said that,

 

 

 

Verbally and mentally fluid, you are refreshing and illuminating to those around you. This is occasionally somewhat discounted by the obvious pleasure that you take in exercising your mental acuity. Although generally peaceful you can often take a verbally aggressive tact in relations with the world, which can often be misunderstood by those around you. Innovative in the extreme, you can often think yourself right out of the correct answer to a given problem. Many times you are referred to as your own worst enemy. You tire very quickly of routine and so make poor clerks or administrative help. You also have no respect for authority and little patience for those you regard as inferior, most especially those in charge. Experimentation is your watchword and can occasionally lead to experience for its own sake and shallow decadence. Your thought can sometimes be scattered and disconnected.

 

This one is scaringly accurate. The being my own worst enemy, combined with being a poor clerk... is what has been haunting me during my entire career, and is the cause of my current unemployed status...

Thoughtful to the extreme, you are often obsessed with perfection and the rules governing your own personal interests. Your world is black and white. You love to work within a logical system, such as language, computer programming, or mathematics. Manipulating a system that can be completely understood is a distinct pleasure to you, because of your confidence in the underlying veracity of your belief system. Because of your appreciation for logic and order, those who speak or think in a sloppy manner are apt to generate more than their share of wrath. Although very amiable, you are not drawn to friendships out of a sense of personal need. You are just as happy by yourself with a good book or puzzle. Because you are so involved with thought, you will on occasion have difficulty dealing with the day-to-day problems of a normal life. Taking out the trash, doing the dishes, these are often left until the last possible moment, if at all.

Close enough I suppose

Your diagnosis

 

Always happy in a crowd, you love to converse, to relate, and above all to have fun. You tend to think in a more holistic manner than many others. Like a crow you are attracted to shiny objects, new ideas, playful exciting colors and the thrill of a new personal relationship. You love to talk or gossip. You are highly invested in the reality of day-to-day life. Practicality is far more important than issues of honor or allegiance. You are a creature of the here and now. You are a natural multi-tasker, often switching mid-thought from one duty to another. You have a flair for presenting your personality in your work, and are known as a great storyteller and natural actor. You are very skilled at taking in a barrage of information and distilling what is most important from it. Naturally charming, you are quick to win new friends. Over stimulation is a danger.

Your power comes from an ability to sense how things might be and to proclaim this possibility with a great force and willingness to act. You have a tendency to be romantic, and can be an idealist. This sense of how the world can be is often expressed with self-deprecatory humor. Because of your need to address the immediacy of the moment, you may not think things through to their logical end, relying instead on a feeling for how a situation SHOULD end.  You need to be liked and appreciated by others, although your attention often wanders. Sometimes you neglect old friends in favor of a new or exciting acquaintance. You have a real difficulty being alone.  Often you will seem to know how to handle a situation without exactly knowing HOW you know this. Your thoughts are often shallow. While in the excitement of the moment you can obsess about a task at hand. If it should become rote and unexciting, however, it can be dropped just as quickly.

 

I wonder why it is mostly true.  :unsure:

Nope, not me.

 

You reach out to the world and pull in experiences of all forms and kinds. Spontaneous, immediate and active, you have a natural tendency to win, whether this is in the business world or on the freeway. In the right context this can be a positive encouragement to those around you. In the wrong context it can lead to a pathetic display of ego and misplaced pride. You are always on the prowl for clues as to how to win. Usually this behavior is unconscious or playful but the sense of play can rapidly disappear if you are found to be losing in the aforementioned contest. Only those who don’t compete are met with derision. You love to be the center of attention. The moment at hand is always of prime concern. Worries about the future or the past, or abstract discussions of philosophical matters are something for others to concern themselves with. Emotions are fleeting and often used as tactics.

LOL, just proved to my self this test is completely false.... I chose A as my sole answer for each question. Each time I did this I recieved a unique response... Try it for yourself go through once choosing only A. Then close the page go through again. Wow that was ridiculous.

Verdict = Surprized how accurate it is.

Right off the bat... With question one.....

I see something odd....

 

"Which of these circles is angry?"

 

I notice the screen appears to be slightly flashing. So I took a screenshot and viewed it full size. There, I noticed the flashing not only stops, but there seems to be an irregularity in the picture itself:

 

http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af32/fox4sox4/Screenshot-5_zps624fd34c.png

 

Notice the very top of the image is a slightly different color....

 

Why? Am I being subliminally messaged here? :P

 

Looking at it after doing this, I can clearly see, the flashing is indeed a difference in color going from top to bottom....

 

Not sure if anyone else noticed this....

 

Anyway... I'll answer the first question now and proceed.

You are in a perpetual quest to find the new, the exciting. Emotionally volatile, you are known for sudden changes of opinion, of appreciation, and behavior. Following rules and established methods is difficult for you and the difficulties of higher education are usually quite daunting. Knowledge is best gained through an intimate association with the matter at hand. Usually driven by attitudes and desires of the group, you are talented in an established field of endeavor. Emotions come and go without a strong understanding of their causes. They are unexpected guests in an otherwise placid landscape. You live by your own codes of conduct, which can be noble or terrible depending on the individual. Authority is meaningless to you. You hate to be predictable, at all costs. Rarely verbally effusive, you can at times feel as if your feelings are too deep for words. You are very observant, but rarely express these observations to others.

I rushed through the rest of the quiz answering A because it soon became apparent that it didn't matter which one I chose, nor did I find any correlation between picture and question. Most of the time I found myself thinking "Um... Neither?" and just picked A, because there was no correlation whatsoever.

 

I agree slightly with the assessment and will now experiment by doing the same exact thing twice.
