10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1
Now add up the total number of points.


OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care."
You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire
you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating
to become too
deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive
personality; a natural leader, who's
quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold
and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes
chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of
the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and
always interesting; someone who's
constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to
their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone
who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They
see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends
too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and
who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it
takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long
time to get over if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as
very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise
them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting
you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide
against it. They think this
reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone
who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions &
who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a
worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring.
Only those who know you well know that you aren't.


(I scored 46)

I've seen this before. He didn't make it up. Its pretty accurate, but why would that be surprising? I could see the answer before I was even done.

I scored 48, but I reckon I show some the characteristics of the category below because although I can hold my own in social situations, I don't often like to be the center of attention. I leave that for the exhibitionists!

It would be interesting to know what is the psychological basis for the test. Most of the questions seem to relate to degree of confidence expressed through body language, others degree of extrovertism but some questions (dream, sleep and time of day) I'm not sure how they relate to personality etc

What are you doing on a Dr. Phil site?

heh heh heh.

I think Dr. Phil is secretly a huge puppet operated by anamatronic experts hired by Oprah.

Had a quick look at DrPhil's site. Quite interesting actually. Is he some sort of psychologist / self-help guru? The congruency (how true you are to yourself) test was quite interesting, although very simplistic. It's interesting though because everyone talks about confidence on the DJ forums but they don't seem to realise that the true foundation of confidence is healthy self-esteem and self-concept (which that DrPhil site mentions) and no amount of gimmicks and tricks are going to give you true confidence.

I got a 39 when someone gave me this test a long time ago. It's pretty accurate.

Got 43. VERY accurate, however, the test is only 10 questions and therefore shouldnt be taken for granted.

51 - not sure you can really sum me up with ten questions though.

If you want a better picture of your personality I suggest the Myers Briggs Type Inventory (there are a lot more questions and they give much more detailed descriptions of the personality types). Businesses often use it when making hiring decisionss.

I scored 48, though I think I'm closer to the category immediately below that one...
