PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS - A WAY TO EXPLORE YOURSELF (ROUTE 2)
Dear Friends, here you can find different tests.
The instructions are very simple. So, enjoy yourselves!
Know
yourself (by Asya)
1. You are
lost in a dark cave, hopelessly searching for the exit, when a bat flies down
to whisper in your ear. What does he say?
- I know where the exit is.
- Come with me, I'll show you the way out.
- Keep searching - you'll find it.
- You're never going to find the exit.
2. You've
just bought a beautiful new music box. How long do you think it will work?
- a few days
- a few weeks
- a few years
- years and years
What will
you do with the music box once it's broken?
- throw it away and buy a new one
- try to fix it
3. You're
walking through the woods when you suddenly see a glint of metal through the
leaves. It seems to be a briefcase. You open it, and it's full of money. What
is your first reaction?
- Yes! This is my lucky day!
- Oh no, what do I do with this???
- I'm going to sleep on this...
- Fate led me to this!
Results
The first question
- You like to stick your nose in other
people's business. You're always ready to help people and give them
advice, even if they're not asking for it.
- You're a very helpful person who's always
ready to lend a hand. People feel at ease with you because they know they
can count on you when they need it.
- You mostly keep your help and advice to
yourself - not because you don't want to be helpful, but because you think
it's good for people to learn their own lessons.
- Seeing someone else suffer makes you feel
better about yourself. This attitude will prevent you from making many new
friends and will probably cause problems in your existing relationships.
The
second question
How long you expect the music box to work signifies how long you expect a
relationship to last.
What you do with the broken music box signifies how you feel when a
relationship has ended.
The third question
This is the reaction you'd have if someone asked you out unexpectedly.
- You'd probably be really happy about it.
If more people could express their happiness like you, the world would be
a better place.
- It's normal to feel unsure in a moment
like this, but in the end the decision is totally yours. Still, don't
debate too long, or else you might lose a chance at happiness.
- You think you'd better make this decision
with a clear head after a good night's sleep. There's nothing wrong with
that. But sometimes you have to take risks to find true love.
- You thank fate for opportunities that come
your way, and are probably more likely to believe in love at first sight.
Internet Addiction Test (by Alex Makh.)
This
Internet addiction screening test can help determine whether you might
be spending way too much time on the Internet (to the point where your
internet use is impacting various areas of your life). Use the results
to decide if you need to see a doctor or other mental health
professional to further discuss your addictive use of the Internet.
(*Internet addiction is not a psychiatric disorder as defined by the DSM IV.)
Instructions: This 20-item questionnaire measures mild, moderate, and severe levels of Internet Addiction. To assess your level of addiction to the Internet, answer the following questions.
Scoring:
1 point for RARELY, 2 for OCCASIOANALY, 3 for FREQUENTLY etc.
20-49 (You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.)
50-79 (You
are experiencing occasional or frequent problems because of the
Internet. You should consider their full impact on your life.)
80-100 (Your Internet usage is causing significant problems in your life. You should evaluate the impact of the Internet on your life and address the problems directly caused by your Internet usage.)
After
you have identified the category that fits your total score, look back
at those questions for which you scored an "Often” or "Always”. Did you
realize this was a significant problem for you?
For help, please print out your Internet Addiction test and score and share it with your doctor or therapist.
Remember,
this is NOT a diagnosis. Only a doctor or qualified mental health
professional can make a diagnosis of any type of mental health problem
and recommend treatments.
