What Flower Are You?

Thanks to Mimi for directing me to this:

I am a Snapdragon What Flower Are You?

I don't know what the basis for the selection is...some of the questions seem quite unrelated. However, the summary says:


"Mischief is your middle name, but your first is friend. You are quite the prankster that loves to make other people laugh."

I can live with that.

WEB SURVEY

I found a web survey to test an individual's locus of control. The description says:

Julian Rotter (1966) devised a locus of control personality test to assess the extent to which an individual possesses internal or external reinforcement beliefs. Terry Pettijohn, the author of Psychology: A ConnecText, has developed the following test based on Rotter's original idea. Indicate for each statement whether it is T (true) or F (false) for you. There are no right or wrong answers. This survey will give you a general idea of where you stand on the locus of control personality dimension.

If you are interested, you can take the survey here.

I scored 50, which mean I have BOTH internal and external locus of control.

Why am I not the least bit surprised by that? Yep, that would be me, forever the walking contradiction.

How Open Minded Are You?

The person who I got this from measured in at 72% open minded. So of course I am wildly curious about the ways our views are similar and how they are different. Is it a good thing to be MORE open minded rather than less? Is there a point where continuing to increase on that scale offers a diminishing return? Is it perhaps just as valuable and valid to have strong convictions about some things in life that I am determined to stand my ground on as it is to be open and flexible, willing to consider alternate points of view??

You Are 56% Open Minded

You are a very open minded person, but you're also well grounded. Tolerant and flexible, you appreciate most lifestyles and viewpoints. But you also know where you stand firm, and you can draw that line. You're open to considering every possibility - but in the end, you stand true to yourself.
