But then I took the color test that was linked and it said I had the eyes of a 17 year old. So that's cool I guess.

That test thinks I'm 18. It's the little things. :gbsmith:

Because that's probably the real focus of the study

Figure 1. 99% of test subjects were susceptible to projecting their attraction on a picture of two human eyes when eyeliner was worn. Changing the sex of the person with the eyeliner in the picture did not significantly alter this statistic.

Figure 2. Test subjects were 99% more likely to choose 'Imposing' or 'Determined' to describe someone they'd previously chosen words like 'Interested' and 'Playful' to describe, even when confronted by four new and definitely not sexy words. Changing the adjectives even further did not significantly alter how basic the average test subject was.

Ernie you are just picking random pokemans. There is no art to this. Shameful

are you angry i gave away bidoof

also, there totally is. tremendous taste is a snake with taste. bowmore is a cheeky australian. kaschei is p obviously one of the most high profile bad pokemon in history. asiina could have been butterfree, but i found arcanine more ... loyal? ludicolo should've been juanito you're right, but that would've made keane golem (because of his love of dodgeball, and that just wasn't as funny)

I think it's half art half science. IQ tests are bullshit too but they still correlate well with incomes.

vOvving all the way to the bank here

hello, mills

person who does research for a living here

myers-briggs personality tests are bullshit, and have been regarded as such for a decade or so now

the introvert-extrovert measure counts for something, but (!) not in the way most tests check for it. you can spend all your time with friends outside at parties but still be introverted for example.

Did anyone even report a sub-100 IQ? Because people who don't think they are intelligent don't go out of their way to take IQ tests and people who score low don't publicize their IQ test results.

i don't think it's possible to be literate, have internet access, be capable of being in a pay-only mafia community and have a sub-100iq... that's just not what iq tests are made for

You joke but any time I say anything about a correlation to someone the first thing out of their mouth is something along the lines of "BUT THAT DOESN'T APPLY TO ME/MY MOTHER/MY BROTHER/MY DOG!!!"

the last time i told someone i see a correlation their reply was 'yeah but i don't think it will be significant when we actually move with HepG2s and a Gal4 system' :(

No, PhD. Fake doctor!

I was getting a PhD in Dev Psych at Waterloo but some poo poo went down so now I'm getting a PhD in Ed Psych at Queen's.

I could write forever about math education and development of math and number concepts in young children. poo poo is so interesting.

oh awkward I'm usually the person in any given room trying to push a 'doctor'/'physician' distinction :\

you'll be a real doctor in my heart, asiina (because otherwise i'm calling my future self a fake doctor, too)

how fluid are fellowships in psych-academia (i.e. are you going to make your way back to math ed somehow?)
