Personal Thinking Styles

[cathmc]

WARNING: This site does not calculate the score for you!!! You will have to PRINT THE PAGE OUT, and then use a PEN OR PENCIL to do the test. It's kind of quaint, really.

Also, I saw somewhere a correlation between these styles and MBTI types, I'll let someone else dig this up if there's enough interest, and will withhold my own score, which was ridiculously high with the one supposedly correlating to xNTx...

EDIT: I suppose I should include the address of the test, eh?:whistle:

Print out??? Nonsense. Notepad and Paint.

[MasterMerk]

That took a while. I scored way high on Concrete Random.

Oh, and

Concrete Sequential Thinkers tend to be based in reality. They process information in an ordered, sequential, linear way.

Concrete Random Thinkers are experimenters.

Abstract Random Thinkers organize information through reflection, and thrive in unstructured, people-oriented environments.

Abstract SequentialThinkers love the world of theory and abstract thought.

[cathmc]

Well, kudos to you guys. I'm too lazy for that though...
My scores:
Concrete Sequential (CS): 24
Abstract Sequential (AS): 56
Abstract Random (AR): 24
Concrete Random (CR): 16

It says 'Abstract Sequential thinkiers love the world of theory and abstract thought'. Yep.

I need to type something in order for the board to accept the post, so here it is I guess. :p

Is there any more infornmation about these types?

10 or below on concrete sequential and abstract random,

44 on abstract sequential and 40 on concrete random.

i'm too lazy to graph it.

I was surprised to see how mostly balanced everyone else is.

Someone needs to learn how to make a test that grades itself... http://forums.intpcentral.com/images/smilies/ranting.gif like the rest of the internet... Guess I'm spoiled or something.

I was thinking that making the self-grading web form might be more interested than actually taking the test...

Pretty much straight across the board. Too much so to be of any real interest, but it was fun doing.

mine was much like that--44 & 48 on the ones where you scored highly, and 8 & 20 on the other ones (where your scores were low)...is there a correlation? or perhaps a dual (either/or) correlation of some sort, since many of the others are fairly balanced...

[Zero Angel]

Low scores on CS and AR, and high ones on CR and AS. First and foremost an experimenter, second, loving the world of theory and abstract thought. Yep, thats about right.

I am waaay abstract random, whee.

[Nighthawk]

Looks like I'm split between experimentation (Concrete Random) and the world of theory (Abstract Sequential). Sounds about right to me.

[nobarcode]

Awhile back, I looked up Anthony Gregorc and/or at least another test, and more information in general. It seems the theory, like any other, is a bit more involved than this test suggests and Anthony Gregorc is quite a character. I meant to post some other findings, but I've lost...that...whole...train of thought.

I am waaay abstract random, whee.

Me too! Pretty sure it's the INFP thing.

Why times by 4 if they are all the same?

[aether]

AS - 44

:zzz:

the number 44 appears to be part of a theme.

[Bluehaze]

CS = 28

AR = 12
