Questionable, yes. But I find it interesting that I scored high on obvious things and low on subtle things. Or at least things that seem more obvious like invading personal space

Some of my answers were guesses, some of the answers I picked up in boxs and others (like the body pointing ones) my mother taught to me.

Maybe, I'm just better at body languages than I thought. :P

I could not really complete that, I mean only a few of those questions made sense.......most of it was like trying to make sense of a foriegn language. So I think its safe to say I tend to fail at reading body language.

I'm surprised I got that many right. I had to guess 90% of the time. Most anything I recognized was a recollection from television or films, or from some other "study" I just happened to remember. I don't have any real life experience to go on.

forgot to add earlier, I had to guess on a lot of the questions, there was a number of them I didn't know what to answer.

'Please define the facial expression on this face.'

Depends. Does your list include 'taking a dump?'. And I'm seeing a lot of 'bored' faces...

...56/100.

Yeah, there's something wrong with that quiz, because I was just guessing half the time.

One other thing wrong with this test: body language reading is mostly subconscious and not something you can take your time for to come up with an answer. Certainly not a multiple choice answer... :lol:

Since I got 23/100, I am the worse here out of everyone when it comes to body language. :(

If your're under 13 years old then you shouldn't take your score to seriously at all. You need to know that sophisticated body language recognition really only starts between the ages of 14 and 18 years old
21 - 40 :

A LITTLE HELP WOULDN'T HURT. Get a body language book! Spend more time on this website. So you’re not a complete fool but we’ll still bet that you feel uncomfortable at parties and often wonder why you find it so hard to communicate with other people. You’re also often surprised when a person suddenly kisses you or just walks off to talk to someone else. You probably cross your arms a lot. There’s more than a sixty percent chance that you’re still with the first person you had sex with (or wish you were). The problem is that you recognise just enough body language for it to disturb you. Mostly, you don’t want to accept the truth of what you see. Understanding body language is like looking into a mirror and seeing another world on the other side. You just can’t accept the truth of what you’re seeing. Most people go into denial at this point and go for block-out. Most people will believe something that is flattering rather than what is true. In short, you’re OK at recognising body language you just don’t really believe in what you see. This is a good time to shed your illusions. This is the point where you decide whether to accept reality or retreat into the pink candy floss world of your own self-deceptions. Is this harsh? Definitely! True – oh yes. You have the potential to become good at recognising and projecting the sort of body language that will get you what you want but you really need to move from being interested in the subject to embracing it as a critically important part of human communication.

I got a 52. 9/10 on the Sex signals, go figure. The questions were phrases horribly, and what do I care how people in other countries react to me throwing up the peace sign, or how many centimeters away from them I am standing? Jeez

Did better than I thought and I can read body language better than facial expressions although I thought I wouldn't score too well on the facial expressions. A lot of hard questions in the Quiz.

41 - 60 :

YOU'RE AVERAGE. Well, if you’re a man then, believe it or not, you’re actually just above average. If you’re a woman and you’re score is under 50 then you probably often wonder why you wind up with men that are such complete and utter losers. The good news is that with a little extra attention to your body language, and other people’s, you could really begin to experience the difference. Reading body language is just like any other skill – it takes practice. Really great sportspeople and actors spend a tremendous amount of time watching how others do it. Try going to a party and blend into the background and then watch how people are interacting with each other. Try and predict what will happen and why. You’ll be amazed at how well this works and how hard it is not to participate. It’s programmed into human psychology that we should take part. The problem is that when you’re “out there” it’s hard to see what is really going on. Try watching some movies – not for the sake of the story – but to watch the actors. This really works. Actors use body language as the tools of their trade. When we talk about bad acting we really mean bad and unconvincing body language. Still, body language is something that you feel you’re beginning to understand. If you made it close to a score of 60 then you should be reasonably pleased with yourself.
