Did it.
The political question was dumb. why can't I pick "FAI" or "rational consequentialist".
I really liked the CFAR questions. MORE OF THOSE.
The political compass questions were very ADBOC and generally meaningless. Apparently I'm left libertarian, whatever that means.
The Big 5 test was suspect on some things. Am I really lowest quartile conscientiousness and agreeableness? I defy the data.
The iq test was fun and challenging. Got 133, which is also what I've gotten on previous iq tests.
The autism test was utterly without interpretation. What does 18 mean?
EDIT: sorry I'm being so negative, a good survey overall. Maybe this is where the low agreeableness comes from.
I think the test is noisy on agreeableness. Six months ago I got 76%, and a couple of days ago I got 17%. The same person answering the same questions with the same friend being used as a comparison.
The other four (Open 95% Conscientious 41% Extravert 91% and Neurotic 4%) were as stable as you'd expect, and reflect my self image.
I have no idea whether I'm actually agreeable or not. I certainly can be, and I can also be spectacularly nasty. And I guess what you think of me would probably depend on which face I've mostly chosen to show around you. (it usually is a conscious choice).
I wonder if the test score is being influenced by which memories are most salient when I take the test.
