An interesting quiz...
No doubt the result I got may not be what people would have expected, considering the responces I normally receive to my posts:
Quote:
Economic Left/Right: 0.0
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.41
Having a "neutral" option would have been nice, as a few I had to consider regarding whether my neutrality was marginally in one direction or the other. Personally, a sliding scale of "agreement" rather than the 4 options supplied would have been preferable.
Similarly, the vagueness of some questions implies they are meant to be seen in a vaccuum, seperated from the conditions of the person answering, yet they would be likely scored around the "understanding" of the person(s) who created the quiz, and the conditions under which they lived (Objective questioning versus subjective answers and interpretation).
As far as the "candidates" graph: Without the people listed having provided their own answers, it is meaningless. The person who generated this has no way to know the feelings\opinions of the candidate, and how much they are emphasisng\camouflaging thier thoughts\opinions in order to gain support. It is entirely possible for a candidate to have no opinion\be neutral on a topic, yet still put forward policies which encourage\discourage support for the topic. Similarly, a candidate may have a low level of agreement\disagreement over a given area, but it is not something to which they have strong feelings, and so may be willing to compromise on it in order to gain support for a different area in which they have a much great level of belief\agreement.
