Morals and Happiness

[posthuman]

A couple psychology survey sites for anyone who's interested in some self-observation.

First this one:

www.yourmorals.org/

Here you can measure your moral and political values and compare them to the average for liberals and conservatives. You can also learn about your thinking style, attachment style, and a bunch of other stuff.


There's also this one:

www.authentichappiness.sas.upenn.edu/default.aspx

Basically the theme of the site is fulfillment in life, and the questionnaires are to assess your current overall happiness/fulfillment as well as specifics of how you approach life, which are supposed to give you insight into leading a better life in the future.

Some questionnaires are the "Strengths Test" (measures your greatest strengths of this list, which can show you what sort of careers you'd be best fit for) the "Meaning in Life" test, the "Life Satisfaction" test, etc.


The research behind it all is also interesting.

My result when taking the "Moral Foundations Questionnaire". I'm annoyed at these questions though, they are very "black or white"-ish.

This is what I confess myself to.

But I can't post them in a way you can just click on the link and see them. You'll have to copy and paste it on the address bar.

Look at that, I've become a moderate.
