Scored a 12. Odd test indeed.

What is your Dewey test score?

http://home.iae.nl/users/jhjess/DST/index.html (test available in English, German and French)

My score was 7, which I think is a typical NT score. But I find the results page (Gathered data) somewhat confusing.


I scored 14.
"This is indicative for problems with social interpretation."

I thought I would score less than that. I did find it difficult to answer because years of learning appropriate behaviours means you have to ensure you answer from your gut rather than what you have learned other people (e.g. society as a whole) would find inappropriate or not.

You probably rated a lot of things "shocking" when the test had them pegged as normal or strange. I guess it means you tend to over-estimate the strangeness of various actions.

This is not indicative for problems with social interpretation.

To be honest, I think this test doesn't have any significance at all. The scenarios are so obviously weird that I find the result hard to apply in real life.

I've found the test quite good.
And yes, I have no problems with social interpretation.

Scenarios are intentionally weird and can happen anytime, not all the people are menally sane.

I got a 9. I wasn't sure on quite a few of the questions, I thought many of them could have been strange/eccentric, or eccentric/shocking.
I think this test tests what you know about socialising, not your natural social skills.

I scored a 12.

And also thought checking a baby's diaper would be a big deal, and that napping inside behind a chair is stranger seeming than napping outside.

To my own surprise, got a 5.

This is obviously a test that depends very much on knowledge of the culture in which it was produced. To many people some of the stories may not make sense due to different cultural expectations.
