@Lily: I don’t think the quiz was flawed, because that was all pretty accurate. I just found it interesting that rather than summing everything up and categorizing everyone, they give you a big block of traits.

We were doing personality tests in my sociology class this morning, and one essentially assigned you a single word to describe you. Which word depended on how introverted/extroverted you were and how mentally stable you were. It made a lot of people say “hey, that word doesn’t describe me,” or insist that they’re stable even though the test said otherwise.

It’s just a way to increase the test’s “accuracy” and sway people’s opinion of the results. Rather than one generalization they disagree with, they see one little piece that doesn’t fit and pass on to the rest. The inaccurate traits don’t bother them much, while the good ones are so accurate it’s scary. I wouldn’t really call it bias, but that’s not a terrible way of putting it.
