Tested!

Results from the last psychological survey I did...I'm not sure why people (myself included) like to see if ithey can validate and reaffirm their own identity using silly tests like these, curiosity perhaps? Though I can't really figure out why I should be curious about what the tests will say about me (after all, how does it matter whether I can 'prove' that the test is accurate/inaccurate?), since I'm fully aware that I'm a much more complex character than any description of my personality can do justice to.

(Btw, you can try it yourself here)


Your answers suggest you are a Supervisor

The four aspects that make up this personality type are:

Planner, Facts, Heads and Extrovert

Summary of Supervisors

  • Bring order to their home and work life
  • Like to act on clear, achievable goals
  • Think of themselves as stable, practical and sociable
  • May be irritated when people don't follow procedures

More about Supervisors

Supervisors like to make plans, organise people and get things done efficiently. They are natural administrators who dislike chaos and strive to bring order to every aspect of their lives. Supervisors like jobs where the goals are clearly defined and there are proven work methods in place.


Supervisors are most likely to say they prefer a job which involves a series of separate projects, according to a UK survey.

Supervisors use logic to solve problems and believe in being open and direct in their communications with others. They prefer to work and socialise with like-minded people.

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Supervisors may reject the opinions of others and insist they are right. Under extreme stress, Supervisors may feel cut off from the people around them and lose confidence in their own ability to cope.

Because they like to take charge and organise activities, others may find Supervisors too bossy.
