On this page I'll present my results for various personality/morality tests, sort of like what [gwern has on his site](http://www.gwern.net/Links#profile), as well as what [Vipul Naik has on his site](https://vipulnaik.com/profile/).
# Personality

## Depression Anxiety Stress Scale
Taken on 2018-02-05; [test link](https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/DASS/).
[](depression-anxiety-stress-scale-2018-02-05.png)
I think the results here are unusually low because I've managed to block off
most of my stressors.
On 2020-12-19, I took the test at [this link](https://www.psytoolkit.org/survey-library/depression-anxiety-stress-dass.html) (the other test from 2018 didn't exist anymore).
My result is as follows:
> Your score on the DASS scale is as follows:
>
> Depression: 12.0 [Mild]
>
> Anxiety: 10.0 [Moderate]
>
> Stress: 8.0 [Normal]
>
> Note: Scores on each scale can run from 0 to 56.
## Nerdy Personality Attributes Scale
Taken on 2018-02-06; [test link](https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/NPAS/).

## Social Intelligence Test
Taken on 2018-02-05; [test link](http://socialintelligence.labinthewild.org/mite/).
[](social-intelligence-2018-02-05.png)
I should note that I took this test sometime around 2013--2014. I don't
remember what I got or if I still have the results.
## Systemising Quotient
Taken on 2018-02-06; [test link](https://www.aspietests.org/sq/index.php).
[](systemising-quotient-2018-02-06.png)
I think my score for this one is unusually low for two reasons: (1) I'm not
very systemizing about things like plants, animals, and airplanes (I'm more
systemizing about things like ideas and websites); (2) I tended to answer that
I have difficulty understanding e.g. maps and diagrams because I think they are
often poorly produced.
## IQ
I took the test at on 2018-02-06 and got a score of 112.
For context on this number, see [this explanation](http://web.archive.org/web/20170808022516/https://www.gwern.net/Links#iq) by gwern.
I took the test at
on 2020-07-12 and got a score of 28/33.
## Myers–Briggs Type Indicator
I seem to consistently test out as INTP, though I'm only heavily biased in the "I" part of the personality type and the "NTP" part is more intermediate.
(TODO: find actual test results.)
The MBTI is often mocked as “unscientific”, but I think
it can be quite useful; see “[On Types of Typologies]” for more.

## Dungeons & Dragons alignment type
I got chaotic neutral when I took [the test](http://easydamus.com/alignmenttest.html) on or around 2014-09-07.
This was originally for [a Quora answer](https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-Dungeons-Dragons-alignment-types-of-prominent-Quora-users/answer/Issa-Rice).
> **Detailed Results:**

> Chaotic Neutral - XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (24)

I took the same test on 2021-12-13. I got Chaotic Neutral again. My scores were:

I didn't like most of the test questions when I retook the test (I don't
remember what I thought when I originally took it). Some questions talk about
"community" and "home town", and I wasn't sure which group of people I was
supposed to be thinking about. For the questions that talk about crime, my
answer would vary greatly on which kind of crime. For some questions, all of
the options seemed off to me, so I reluctantly picked one of them.
## The Robot Test
On 2020-08-07 I took [The Robot Test](https://arfer.net/games/robot-test).
My result was as follows:
> Your total: 78 \
> Your class: Cyborg
The description for Cyborg is "You are a sorry amalgam of robot and regular
human. You linger in two worlds at once, an outsider to both the normies and
the robots. As a result, you may be on your own with your feels."
## Schizotypy Personality Scale
On 2020-08-09 I took [this test](https://www.insideprison.com/article_assessments_Schizotypal_Personality_Scale.asp) about Schizotypy Personality Scale (STA). My result is as follows:
> Your score on the Schizotypy Personality Scale (STA) (NPI) is: 11
>
> Scores of 11 usually indicate no evidence of schizotypy. At least 90% of
> test-takers score in this range or lower.
## Wisconsin Card Sorting Test
On 2020-12-19, I took [this test](https://www.psytoolkit.org/experiment-library/experiment_wcst.html), which is an implementation of the [Wisconsin Card Sorting Test](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin_Card_Sorting_Test).
My result is as follows:
> Feedback on your WCST performance \
> (Note: There were in total 60 trials)
>
> Error count: 8 (13%) \
> Perseveration error count: 6 (10%) \
> Non-perseveration error count: 2 (3%)
## Highly Sensitive Person test
On 2021-05-18 I took [this test](https://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/), after seeing it linked by Brian Tomasik.
It is an implementation of Elaine N. Aron's (1996) highly sensitive person test.
I scored 19.
## Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale
On 2021-07-27 I look the Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale at
.
My scores were as follows:
> You have completed the Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale.
>
> The LSRP measures two scales.
>
> Scores range from 1 (low) to 5 (high).
>
> Your score from primary psychopathy has been calculated as 1.9. Primary
> psychopathy is the affective aspects of psychopathy; a lack of empathy for
> other people and tolerance for antisocial orientations.
>
> Your score from secondary psychopathy has been calculated as 3. Secondary
> psychopathy is the antisocial aspects of psychopathy; rule breaking and a
> lack of effort towards socially rewarded behavior.
>
> [...]
>
> You score for primary psychopathy was higher than 41.76% of people who have
> taken this test.
>
> You score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 71.45% of people who have
> taken this test.
## Aspie Quiz
On 2022-06-17 I took the [Aspie Quiz](https://rdos.net/eng/Aspie-quiz.php). My results are as follows:
> Your broader autism cluster (Aspie) score: 106 of 200 \
> Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 124 of 200 \
> You have both broader autism cluster and neurotypical traits

# Morals
[to be added]
# Politics
According to [The Political Compass](https://www.politicalcompass.org/) (taken 2015-08-24) I am:
> Economic Left/Right: 1.25
> Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.0
Many of the question statements came across as odd to me, because of the way qualifiers were used.
For instance many statements used "some" to qualify statements, so that even if I believed the stereotypically libertarian position I would give the authoritarian-seeming answer.
