What personality type are you? 11:43 - Jun 11 with 16622 viewsBrixtonBlue

I'm a Logician, apparently.

"Armed with a powerful intellect and vivid imagination, Logicians can overcome or outmaneuver obstacles that seem unbeatable to most. At the same time, their many quirks, such as often unconstrained rationalism, lead to many misunderstandings."

Famous Logicians: Bill gates, Albert Einstein, Issac Newron, Rene Descartes.

These ones aren't vague though - they are very specific. I know what you mean though, and I've seen this before (like with horoscopes).

This one seems a lot more thorough though (the final report covers Strengths & Weaknesses, Romantic Relationships, Friendships, Parenthood, Career Paths and Workplace Habits).

Me, my missus and my work wife all had a go and came out with very different reports - which all matched our personalities.


Just to recap, it said you were a logician?

I think this statement coupled with the test making you a logician is proof that the test is bogus.


This statement is true though. i've looked at 3 reports and they're all entirely different.

We appreciate that. The point of the original experiment wasn't that everyone believes exactly the same things about themselves.

The experiment was just a way of demonstrating that personality profiles which manifestly havn't been individualised in any way, are still considered highly accurate if people trust the process by which they are derived.

If this website has a bunch of well written profiles, it could allocate the profiles randomly and completely ignore the questions, and people would believe the profile was specific to them.

Is that the one where you have to choose between diverting the train onto the track where it kills 10 people, or just leave it on the track where it's only going to kill 1 person?

Ah! googled the Milgram Test, yes, classic. Would love a go on that one.

I got entertainer when I did this a while ago. Of all the personality tests I’ve done for work and whatnot (5 voices is another) this was the one that I thought was most accurate.

A defender, which is a surprise as I see myself more as a centre forward or number 10.


It made me a defender too-I used to enjoy a tackle.

It could do, yes. Or there could be something in it. Depends how cynical you are.

You haven't done it have you?

You may well be right, but it'd be rather churlish if you just dismiss something without giving it a go.

Your tendency to labour a point can at times be infuriating to others, yet you remain convinced of your superior wit regardless of the opinion of your peers.

Hold on, hold on, hold on, Mr Logic. Whether there's 'something in it' or not doesn't depend on how cynical you are, does it? Think about it.

And, perhaps unsurprisingly, I am drawn further towards the more flattering aspects of the analysis.

Yes, why not.
World domination should be a mere formality for people of our intellect.

My understanding is the research it's based on has been largely debunked. And I've done it a couple of times and come out with completely different profiles, neither of which seemed very accurate when I looked at them closely.

You should do some reading up on cognitive bias some time, I think you'd find it fascinating.
