F-Scale test and other fun quizzes!

Re: F-Scale test

how do people even get scores above like 30 on this thing

Re: F-Scale test

I interpretted it as saying that things like depression are a thing that is just inherently part of us/can be there, and isn't caused by circumstances and whatnot, but hell I have no idea

Re: F-Scale test

You know you can leave it in the middle as "neither agree nor disagree", however, I'm pretty sure it was implied that the question meant whether ot not Astrology can be used to accurately predict or explain phenomenon.

damn tell me how you really feel

Re: F-Scale test

I might just overthink everything lol, I thought the question was to judge how much faith and optimism you place into things that you don't know are for sure right/correct

Re: F-Scale test

hmm. Definitely wasn't expecting this.

Re: F-Scale test

Thats actually a smart and logical way of understanding the question's purpose. I wouldn't say you overthought it any more than Moria did. I think he would have been better to leave that question neutral, considering it wasn't clear to him what it was asking.

Re: F-Scale test

wow never would have guessed that I'm cynical and paranoid

Re: F-Scale test

I think the high level of Cynicism recording in this test is based on our collective ability to ostracize people for not following social expectation / etiquette, like when someone is seen as rude, or annoying, or can't be bothered to use the urinal on the other side of the bathroom instead of the one next to me when they're all vacant. The wording and generalization of some of the categories here are weird.

"Destructiveness-Cynicism
Generalized hostility to things not in line with one's personal values, and the devaluation of human life and tendencies.

Your Score: High"

Definitely wouldn't consider myself openly destructive / cynical based on that kind of definition they are chasing. I'll have reservations within that, like the example I mentioned. But, I don't really think it defines me.

Re: F-Scale test

I got average on everything except I got 67% on anti-degeneracy which apparently is high
which I guess means most people are degenerates

Re: F-Scale test

The test itself is almost as bad as the ideals being covered.

Anyway

Re: F-Scale test

What the fuck is "anti-degeneracy" and why do you have to keep posting nazi quizzes

Re: F-Scale test



Hmm... definitely wasn't expecting myself to score that high on the cynicism and superstition scales. I'm gonna take this test with a grain of salt like I usually do with most online quizzes.
