I was reading this article called “Are Narcissists Better at Reading Minds?“. One of the most famous narcissists in the world, Tucker Max took the “Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test” and scored 33 out of 36, which is extremely high.
I took the test and scored 31. FML. Despite my blog name, I honestly didn’t think I was a text-book narcissist but now I’m not so sure.
# – Mind reading?
I have to admit, it’s a little silly to relate mind-reading to narcissism directly, but the other possible explanations for high score in mind reading capabilities are either psychopathy or Machiavellianism. So, am still screwed!
Can you guys take the mind reading test and tell me how much you score? Maybe 31 is not really that high lah and I’m just freaking myself out.
ok, I got 15 wtf @_@ am I that bad? most of my wrong answers are my first choice of answers -___-
haha it’s a good thing la! :D
30 for me.
we are MFEO.
I scored 32, and had two 50/50 questions (as in wanted to pick the correct answer but ended up with a wrong one) WTF I’m that narcissistic? :O
i dunno bee. are you? are we? lol
hmm..i got 31..could have been higher but at one point i kept getting them all right that i thought the test was rigged so purposely chose the wrong answers a few times!! i hope this doesn’t mean i’m a psychopath!
i hope not too! hahaha
b/cos I like you, I did this very long test.. I got.. 22!
apparently that meant: Im not even above average.. hahahahahhahahahaha
after a while, I started wondering why one eye was focused to the side, and one looked straight at you.. after that, it annoyed me LOL
thanks lia! mwahs! hey it’s a good thing…means you’re far, far away from narcissism, psychopathy or Machiavellianism!
but apparently Im barely above high level autism and Ausberger’s or something.. hahahahahahhaa
looks like either way we’re all screwed hahaha what a silly test!
29. 30 if you count the one i clicked wrongly because i was distracted by mum’s taiwanese drama LOLOLOL.
thank goodness i’m not alone in the 30s haha.
i got a 33 o.O
hehe…what do you think, are you a narcissist?
30 o.O
i’m curious, is it really true? i tried to read online about narcissism but i cant see all those in me =/
isn’t it more to how well you guess ppl’s emotion? eye is the window to the soul lol…
probably has some connections but could be just pure fallacies :)
yay, almost same as me haha.
33
narcissistic? haha
Scored 34. Think the test tells us more how perceptive we are to others rather than being good at reading minds, which I absolutely cannot do. Was kinda surprised my score was that high as I’m always told I’m completely oblivious to others and quite blur. Hahaha…
Unless maybe the test works in that the higher the score, the bigger the ego gets cos my ego went thru the roof when my score came out…and that is narcissism isn’t it? ;)
but that works for every kind of test though, doesn’t it? the higher the score, the bigger the ego gets haha
me too! gareth always say i am the most unobservant person he knows haha
he’s wrong, i am the most unobservant now.
lol no. check out first comment! :D
this test is too easy. it’s quite obvious what the answers are based on the options. it would be extremely difficult if it weren’t multiple choice, but it becomes ridiculously easy because the other 3 choices tend to be completely off. so you’re probably not whatever you think you are.
heh i wish there’s a like button to this comment!
i got 32! and i am definitely not narcissistic! :P i might be Machiavellian or a psychopath tho! *gasp* :p
uh oh!
I got 21, fuck.
lol, why am i not surprised??????
i got 32 wtf hahaha
walaneh yuen yee! i scare u nowwwwwwwwwwww
29. Does that means I’m normal?
according to the test, average is 26.2 so i’d say, “nearer to normal” haha
Hi, I got 30. Once I realized some of the shots looked like they were from ads, it got much easier, knowing that ads want positive messages. =D
ooh u beat the system! haha cunning ;)
I scored a 27 and I got an 88 on the covert narcissism test (23 question test). It was a relief that I scored average on the social IQ test.
