You are warm and empathic with a heightened awareness of social responsibility and a strong sense of conscience. You like to carefully weigh up the pros and cons of a situation before you act and are generally averse to taking risks. You are very much a people person and dislike conflict. Do unto others are your watchwords. But, although you avoid hurting others, those residing at the higher end of the psychopathic spectrum might not be as considerate, so stay vigilant to avoid being hurt unnecessarily.

(1 post)I scored 18%. The test is very "amateur" and one can easily cheat on it as psychopathic trends are obvious in the questions. I see one person scored 3% which, if a true score, is indicative of that person being a real door-mat!

(10,044 posts)"Though your conscience is in the right place you also have a pragmatic streak and generally arent afraid to do your own dirty work! Youre no shrinking violet - but no daredevil either. You generally have little trouble seeing things from another persons perspective but, at the same time, are no pushover. Everything in moderation including moderation might sum up your approach to life."

(10,044 posts)I think that the way the "Disagree" and "Agree" options is set up is confusing. Somtimes I wasn't completely sure that it got it right....or, that "I" got it right.

(1 post)According to this test i am psychopath and according to other tests i am not. Few other tests advised me to go for professional mental help.
This long psychopath test scored me very low.

I hope these tests are not accurate.
