The morality test

[craft1948]

I've tried this and it's very interesting. You have to register and it does take a bit of time.......

This was part of my result...

"Your high sense of wrongness is your most prominent moral dimension. This is the area in which you differed most from the average person in our pilot study.

This suggests that you are highly sensitive to actions that break your moral code, and you react strongly to things you don’t agree with."

Warnings

You get situatins where, for examlpe you have 3 options, can only select 1, but all 3 are right.
You need sound for the film piece.
It takes forever to load next page.
It seems to go on for ages which makes it difficult to be consistent when the areas of the situation to be judged differ so greatly. i.e. large or small responsibility vs large or small consequences.
Necessary assumptions can affect your answer.


"YOUR LOW SENSE OF DISGUST is the most significant feature of your results
Your low sense of disgust is your most prominent moral dimension. This is the area in which you differed most from the average person in our pilot study.

This suggests that you are unlikely experience a strong emotional response to issues of right and wrong. You probably do not often feel physically sickened by the immoral actions of other people and it may be that you favour a more rational approach to dealing with moral ‘wrongs’."

Oh lordy, how many typos ? No don't count them.

[craft1948]

I think that means you're laid back OG...........

[snags]

No need to do the test... I already know my moral compass is way off...

[craft1948]

You may surprise yourself snags........I did.

[Old_Geezer]

I really wish I was. As each year goes by I seem to be turning more and more into "Mr. Angry", but not "Mr. Disgusted" it seems.

[craft1948]

I thought I'd calmed down as I got older, but apparently not.

Your low desire to avoid is your most prominent moral dimension. This is the area in which you differed most from the average person in our pilot study.

This suggests that you are unlikley to avoid people who go against your view of right and wrong. Although you may react strongly to actions which go against your personal moral code, you probably do not often have concerns about the consequences of interacting with moral ‘wrongdoers’.

[rockyracoon]

Makes it sound like I'm surrounded by reprobates, lol.

[craft1948]

lol rocky...........all your mates are 'dodgy'.

[rockyracoon]

Lol craft, I think the only ones I avoided where the sexual assault fella and the one kipping with his auntie, euw.

[Old_Geezer]

The more detailed analysis is interesting. Apparently I score low just about everywhere (a few averages). I reckon they just failed to find the right scenarios. It is claimed I conformed to their 'small town' theory, but not the 'family first' one. Unsure I believe all that.

[atrollope]

Ditto - I scored low in most areas and conform to small town but not family first. Apparently my most marked difference from the average was a lack of desire/need to punish.

It was interesting though - thanks for pointing it out Craft.

[NOX]

I had low desire to avoid as well, which I'd go along with as i prefer to communicate with people, even ones I really despise than to ignore something I think is wrong etc.

By exploring the rest of your feedback, you’ll discover how this dimension of morality compares with your other results.

[craft1948]

I've just read my in depth analysis and I don't conform to anything!

[rockyracoon]

This was mine Nox, makes it sound as if you don't care who you talk to but the way I answered was that i don't let people bother me so i won't avoid them, doesn't actually mean I want to break bread with them.

[China Doll]

Your low sense of anger is your most prominent moral dimension. This is the area in which you differed most from the average person in our pilot study.

This suggests that you do not generally experience a strong emotional response to actions that go against your view or right and wrong. You may be more tolerant to a range of behaviour in society.

[China Doll]

Sort of true I guess, if it doesn't effect me or mine then I seldomly have any kind of emotiona response... which is pretty good as I'd never be abe to do my job otherwise.
