Scored 7 on narcissism; half the average score for an American, not sure if that is a good thing.

Scored 8 on psychopath which is low/normal.

Or did I? 😉
Likewise scored 7. I found the questions simplistic, repetitive and rather banal. Some of the choices were unrelated. Typical example of fatuous test that proves absolutely nothing - certainly no indicator of narcissistic tendencies. Narcissism, as I understand it, is self-absorption, self-love and an extremely introverted view on life. I certainly do not have those traits!

Yeah probably just Taking part is a bit narcissistic, one of the traits of a psychopath is telling porkies, thus rendering that test invalid.

What I'm saying is you are supposed to answer one way the other, yes? Well on some questions you can't do that as neither statement is true, therefore it is flawed.

Like "do you think you always have the right answer" vs. "do you sometimes have the right answer" and you would like "I never... Ever... EVER have the right answer"?

There were about three of them that I noticed. I can't recall what they were now. I'm sure other people would have noticed that other questions gave them problems too.

That is such a small fraction of the time that it would not be a representative sample.

Answer 1. Yes and I scored 7 on the narcissism test which is obviously the level of narcissism denoting that I am narcissistic enough to take part in a self appraisal test on line and then share my results.

Question 2. Are you concerned that you may be taking these tests and subsequent results a little bit to seriously?🙂
