1. Optimism/Pessimism Test - 63/100:
Was rated a.. cynic.
According to your responses, your perspective of humankind is rather cynical. You often assume the worst of people, and will usually distrust their motives. Instead of giving others the benefit of the doubt and accept what they say or do at face value, you take a much more self-protective stance. Unless proven otherwise, you generally refuse to believe in other people’s good intentions and more often than not, will withhold your trust. Although this perspective may protect you from being taken advantage of, you could definitely benefit from being a little more trusting. Your belief that many people are fundamentally bad can lead to a rather pessimistic outlook, that is, if you don’t already have one. Unlike their less positive counterparts, optimists will at least try to find the good in even the most difficult of people, and are much more willing to place their faith in others. Although this doesn’t mean that you should trust the good intentions of everyone you meet, a leap of faith every once in a while couldn’t hurt.
2. Emotional Intelligence:
According to your self-report answers, your emotional intelligence is very poor. People who score like you do feel that they have trouble dealing with their own emotions and those of others. They struggle to overcome difficulties in their lives and they are unable to control their moods. It’s hard for them to understand how best to motivate themselves and reach their goals. In addition, they find social interactions quite difficult, for several reasons. They may have trouble allowing themselves to get close with others, finding it difficult to be vulnerable enough to establish intimacy. They also report having trouble offering support to others, likely due to the fact that they do not understand where others are coming from or they lack ideas about how best to help. Perhaps by working on your problem areas, you can become more confident in dealing with your own emotions and those of others.
3. Belief test - 75/100:
According to your score, you believe that some people are gifted with the power to see into the future and can predict things to come. Although you may not consider all psychics to be legitimate practitioners, you do believe that there are some who do indeed possess a sort of “sixth sense” or the ability to feel and see things that most people can’t.
4. Jealousy test - 23/100:
According to your score, you seem to be doing the right thing in most jealousy-inducing situations, but there are a few occasions when your reactions may be a little more blatant. For the most part however, you seem to be able to monitor your behavior and rarely let it get out of hand. From the viewpoint of a partner, jealousy is generally very unbecoming, but the good news is that it can be controlled. This is best achieved by addressing any underlying issues you may have that can trigger your jealousy. If, on the other hand, it’s your partner who thrives on jealousy – and perhaps even goes out of her way to instigate it - then it is a pretty safe guess that she has an issue that needs to be addressed, as it could really sour your relationship.
