MEME: mind/heart/instinct quiz
Mar. 15th, 2005 11:49 pmAccording to this quiz, I'm not very furry at all, so I guess I should delete this journal and find something else to do with my time.
You are 40% mind-centered, 40% heart-centered, and 22% instinct-centered!
How Do I Interpret My Results?: Since we all possess each center, you will have three scores. Determine your highest percentage. Also keep in mind your second highest percentage. Your second highest reveals a strong tendency toward an additional center. Evenly matched centers are rare, but not unheard of. Explanation of evenly matched centers is currently beyond the scope of this test. Consider yourself a blend of both centers for the time being. Continue reading below for descriptions of each center.
Mind-Centered: Dutiful (to others or self). Pays attention to details. Phobic or paranoid. Intellectual or rational. Often possess a higher degree of concentration. Generally longer attention spans. Emotional minimalists (emotions are sporadic and irrational);
Heart-Centered: Often very expressive and communicative. Pays attention to feelings. Tend to be temperamental or hostile at times. An unusual mix of self-interest and deep concern for the external world. Often possess a higher degree of emotional intelligence (aware of feelings). Image centered (presents a crafted persona to the world). Empathic, creative, and intuitive.
Instinct-Centered: Have trouble with feeling disconnected (to others and/or self). Capable of intellectual and emotional pursuits, but must focus and expend energy to do them. Behavior centric (people's behavior is very important). Often judgemental or punitive toward "infidels" (people who act poorly). Often possess a higher degree of discernment and initiative. Generally focused on what is important in life rather than what is trivial and/or not practical. Tend to have more outbursts of anger (whether repressed or not; passive or aggressive).
You are 40% mind-centered, 40% heart-centered, and 22% instinct-centered!

And what's with the 102% total score?

You are 50% mind-centered, 13% heart-centered, and 40% instinct-centered!
Also, I'm not too sure of the percentages on any OKcupid quizzes. The Commonly confused Words test gave everyone a score it claimed was higher than 100% of other people in your are group, no matter what score they got.
