Strange Personality Test

I'm bringing this back since I really enjoy this one. It's strange and the results have been really accurate for me.

It's technically not a personality test, but "an exploration of your brain's affective response system". As it also states, don't try tying the shapes to any narrative or storyline.

Yes, if I remember correctly, you can't access it through your phone. You can try typing in 'Pierley/Redford test', but I am unsure if you'll be able to access it even that way.

😢

I'll try on my Kindle!

"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."

This is my result. I agree with most of it. Except I do seek out friendship for personal need.

I wonder how many results there are. I don't remember there being too many repeats from the last thread on this, but Dazed and I already got the same result.

Do you guys agree with the results?

@Dazed, I'm ISTJ or INTJ

You need to help others and to be thought of as a generous and kind individual. Often you are taken advantage of and regarded as simply part of the scenery. You work best when handling the work yourself; you do not appreciate a managerial role and tend to be uncomfortable in that position. Friendship is important to you, but it is generated on a personal basis, rarely a professional one. Consequently, family life is very important to you, and is often the most important aspect. Because of a strong sense of propriety however, you will sometimes consider the eccentric behavior of your friends and family as a personal affront. Often you find it difficult to speak up about personal anguish or pain, feeling instead that it is something an individual should bear in silence. Tradition is important to you, and you feel a sense of belonging when operating within the constraints of a predictable routine.

50-50.

I'm not uncomfortable in a manager role, I speak up, eccentric behavior isn't a personal affront, routine is a nightmare.

Tradition...I can go either way.

Family and friends and kindness ftw.

Mine either. .. but I'll do it when I get home.

It no work for meeehhh!

Did you try from your phone? You may need to access a computer to take it. If you are on a computer, then I can't help you. Haha

You tend to draw and nurture others with your natural charisma. Rarely satisfied with petty details, you remain focused on the grander scheme of things. In affairs of the heart you are very practical and might be thought on occasion perfunctory or shallow. Oddly, though you have a natural tendency to lead, you have a very thin skin and can easily be hurt by a thoughtless comment or a cruel barb. There is a danger that you will take on more responsibility than you can reasonably be expected to manage. So eager are you to succeed, that on occasion you crash and burn when the reality of the situation rears its head. Often your wide circle of friends can be rather indiscriminate; care must be taken not to become entangled with those of questionable moral character. Admitting weakness isn’t easy for you. When proven not to be invulnerable it can come as a great surprise. Unresolved issues can trouble you deeply.

Yep, I got to agree with Wecarealot, the test is just too bizarre, I ended up with the same result as Ands2016

"Quiet and very self-assured, you tend to keep your own council. Pragmatic and practical to a fault, you are not one to worry about the finer points of philosophical discourse. In fact, because you are very much an individualist, you often finds yourself at odds with the established truth or the wishes of the majority. You will often earn the wrath of an employer by taking upon yourself decisions which are rightly those of your manager. You are not one to take credit unless it is deserved. Similarly however, you will also not happily give credit where it is not due. In a romantic relationship you can be very frustrating. While you do care deeply and sincerely, and are willing to work at a relationship, your confidence in your own abilities can on occasion make it difficult to see the world from a partner’s point of view. Quiet and stoic at times, you can drive a more emotional individual completely up the wall. You can become overstressed and fatigued without knowing it. Taking time to rest between bouts of hard work can help to prevent a breakdown later on."

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.

"Hand gliding," heh.

I took the second and third test on their site as well. For the third test, my results were similar to what Elle got. Here's what I got for the second test:

This client feels that his or her current existence is not only unpleasant but undeserved. Consequently, he or she is in a very fatigued state and may be susceptible to suggestions, as long as they do not indicate an increase in personal responsibility. This client feels misunderstood by those around her and may be agitated and confused because of it. Best method of entry is to discover what has been the source of his or her displeasure.

Stress and interpersonal conflict have lead this individual to a temporary life of short-sightedness and impulsivity. It is likely that he or she is highly irritable in the pursuit of personal goals, which are seen as being of absolute importance.

http://www.hypnoid.com/psytestApr/EM_Beige_Feb2011.html

I guess this is a bad time to say it, but if you suffer from depersonalization and perhaps even derealization, you should maybe skip out on this test.

I wonder if our personality types will "match" the results here?

Yes, these test come with warnings that an experienced clinician should be present. I will take it now.

These tests are intense. My results for Dissociative Affect Diagnostic Test:

"An uncompromising and yet often unrealistic individual who is likely to be disappointed by the world in direct proportion to his or her age. Demands that reality and one's ideals mesh, and believes that any complexity that makes such a union impossible is somehow false and hateful. Difficult to work with, a client such as this may be addressed by appealing to the dissatisfaction he or she feels with reality.

This client either feels superior or is accostomed to being in a position of authority. There is a sense of stress however, perhaps due to a belief that future progress is threatened by outside forces. Opposition, whether real or imagined, gives this individual a sense of mission, and there are times when he or she will invent obstacles as a means of building the strength to overcome them."

^^^I'm sorry, the above are my results for the other test Scenic and Elle took (link in Scenic's post.)

I'm going to dismiss what I discover.

I'm going to try again in a few days.

The results of the third were pretty bizarre and hit too close to home. I think it might just be because I'm in a funk today.

I have no doubt my results are accurate, but I am going to choose to ignore them anyway.

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.

I listened to this while taking it

I also found the third test to be most accurate for me. I felt my results were somewhat tame, so I did not mind sharing. But then again, I'm the sort of person that is very open to sharing (unless it's food!!!).

@elllesque , I'm interested to know if the results you get later are more accurate than the results you got today. Check back in!

"You possess a strong sense of self-importance or an overdeveloped self regard. You nevertheless have the ability to make emotional connections to others and are capable of achieving satisfaction in a romantic relationship. However, your self-regard has the tendency to limit your emotional depth and to leave you feeling not completely committed or emotionally distanced. You do not easily form strong emotional bonds.

You may appear distant and disapproving, however this attitude is likely caused by a severe and recent disappointment. In all likelihood, you are combating a pair of opposing forces in regard to a romantic relationship. Often a relationship will have gone sour or is otherwise disappointing, and yet options of escape and future promise are minimal, leaving you to feel that the best course of action may be to remain and weather it out."

Final test results.

other test. So accurate it's creepy...


You feel both a sense that your problems are causing you stress and that these problems may be insurmountable, or at least that you are probably not likely to be able to solve them through shear force of will. You have the ability to emotionally and physically connect with others, which is often a release for your feelings of helplessness.

Our second paragraph of mental/emotional issues match.

Cool beans.

Meh.

Sort of true except I'm built for monogamy and I don't like extreme sports.

A lot of Ands-types on here. 😄

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.

the last one..

This client feels underappreciated but still has the energy left to try to ameliorate this problem. A determination toward personal success has given this client a goal against which the world seems to be set. There is a strong desire for independence, and so the best method of entry is to focus on the quality of independent thought that our program encourages.

This client has a very strong need for a supporting romantic social bond and if this is not currently being met then there will be great amounts of stress. A desire for appreciation is paramount and when this is not being met, such a client will act out or behave in a manner unlike his or her normal demeanor.

`Which i do feel very underappreciated by the company i work for... soooooooo.

For all those trying to access the test via mobile...the app was created in flash (3rd party browser plugin that's not supported by most mobile devices) so it probably won't work for you...you'll need access to a laptop/desktop.
As for taking the test myself, I got the same results as the OP...interesting.

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.

Taking out the trash, doing the dishes, these are often left until the last possible moment, if at all.

In other news, that test was creepy as fuck

This client feels that he or she is a bit of a late starter and consequently is attempting to make up for perceived losses of opportunity by exploiting whatever means of excitement are at hand at any given time. Burdens of the day or constraints caused by modern life are often those things that such a client reacts against when seeking stimuli. The best method of entry with such a client is to reject the complacency endemic to modern existence.

Such a client is actively looking for an escape from personal issues and problems but the stress of this decision is causing an unstable and unaccostomed indecisiveness. Problems seem more and more insurmountable as the stress increases.

first test:
Quiet and very self-assured, you tend to keep your own council. Pragmatic and practical to a fault, you are not one to worry about the finer points of philosophical discourse. In fact, because you are very much an individualist, you often finds yourself at odds with the established truth or the wishes of the majority. You will often earn the wrath of an employer by taking upon yourself decisions which are rightly those of your manager. You are not one to take credit unless it is deserved. Similarly however, you will also not happily give credit where it is not due. In a romantic relationship you can be very frustrating. While you do care deeply and sincerely, and are willing to work at a relationship, your confidence in your own abilities can on occasion make it difficult to see the world from a partner’s point of view. Quiet and stoic at times, you can drive a more emotional individual completely up the wall. You can become overstressed and fatigued without knowing it. Taking time to rest between bouts of hard work can help to prevent a breakdown later on.

The second test:
A strong sense of hopelessness is present. This individual has decided that the game of life cannot be won and so instead of seeking success instead preoccupies herself with avoiding unpleasantness. Avoidance is the strongest quality of this personality, and so the best method of entry is an appeal to the common escape of emotional pain.

A sensitive and artistic individual who is seeking and often not discovering a reliable outlet for these desires. Often this client will feel unsatisfied in love and will be passively seeking escape through unwise behavior.

a lot of the questions just didnt make sense.
Also it's called "dissociated affact diagnosis" to make it sound like a medical thing, but it seems it's just another astrology bullshit

Same as Scenic and GetMisted. I can be alone with a book or a puzzle...easily and sometimes day to day life is VERY overwhelming, but I have an efficient system for cleaning...so I just get the shit done. Plus I love a clean house...cleaned by me that is. I don't usually trust other people's cleaning standards.

You have a poetic sensibility and an ability to see beyond the day to day. You often seem to be living in a higher realm, or to be not-of-this-earth. Occasionally you imagine interior lives for friends and associates that are near-complete fabrications based on your fears or hopes for the future. You are often not aware of your own feelings. You have a strong sense of right and wrong, and because of this are often disappointed. Despite what can sometimes be a destructive inward-turning anger, you are very gentle. You are sometimes a bit out of touch with the ebb and flow of modern life. If your behavior is out of synch with your moral values, a severe psychic disturbance can result. Because connectivity is so important to you, you can become quiet and sulky if you feel that others around do not understand your point of view.

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.
