On a roll, what the heck...


My EQ is 59: I have "an above average ability for understanding how other people feel and responding appropriately." I also "know how to treat people with care and sensitivity." Most women score about 47; most men about 42.

My SQ is 42: I have "an above average ability for analyzing and exploring a system. On average, women score about 24 and men score about 30. Most people with Asperger Syndrome or high functioning autism score between 40 and 50.

Which makes me a Type B (balanced) personality.

Aspergers? Hmmmmm

I wouldn't worry about that too much. If you actually had Aspergers, that EQ would almost certainly be a lot lower.

I've been struck on more than one occasion by how subjective and arbitrary a lot of these tests can be. I know, for example, that on simple context-free tests (such as that personality disorder one that made the rounds some months back) I score highly for diagnoses which my shrink has never seriously considered, because the symptoms are actually well-explained by my battle with depression.

Food for thought, anyway.
