@DeusVolk how do you even get rural quests? It is so much easier to start quest lines in a city.

2018-11-03 04:10:44 UTC  

Dat Democrat, though...

2018-11-03 04:10:55 UTC  

@Ald Where did you see the 'profile of a liberal' part

2018-11-03 04:11:01 UTC  

High openness, low conscientiousness, high extroversion, moderate agreeableness, high neuroticism

2018-11-03 04:11:07 UTC  

Yes, that.

2018-11-03 04:11:36 UTC  

Low conscientiousness is a bit scary.

2018-11-03 04:11:36 UTC  

Right wingers tend lower in openness, high in conscientiousness, and way lower in neuroticism

2018-11-03 04:11:54 UTC  

Personality tests big gay

2018-11-03 04:12:03 UTC  

Rural is hard bc no jobs

2018-11-03 04:12:09 UTC  

@missliterallywho unless it's mbti

2018-11-03 04:12:11 UTC  

Big 5 seems like a well substantiated psychometric though

2018-11-03 04:12:13 UTC  

But warning about that test, because women tend to be much higher in neuroticism than men on it.

2018-11-03 04:12:22 UTC  

MBTI is the gayest of the gay

2018-11-03 04:12:36 UTC  

rural is also easier *after* you're married

2018-11-03 04:12:47 UTC  

@missliterallywho are you countersignalling or for reals

2018-11-03 04:13:02 UTC  

Gay is forbidden in IE therefore personality tests are banned.

Mods please usher out this riff raff.

2018-11-03 04:13:05 UTC  

I am for real for real

2018-11-03 04:13:11 UTC  

and what is your accusation

2018-11-03 04:13:32 UTC  

i want to hear a case against them

2018-11-03 04:14:20 UTC  

Bruh Google it, they're been completely discredited. They're as scientific as Facebook quizzes.

2018-11-03 04:14:56 UTC  

No, I'm an INTJ and feel special. *Let me have that*

Personality traits have proven to be consistent and important factors in a variety of externalizing behaviors including addiction, aggression, and antisocial behavior. Given the comorbidity of these behaviors with pathological gambling (PG), it is important to test the degree to which PG shares these trait correlates. In a large community sample of regular gamblers (N=354; 111 with diagnoses of pathological gambling), the relations between measures of two major models of personality – Big Three and Big Five – were examined in relation to PG symptoms derived from a semi-structured diagnostic interview. Across measures, traits related to the experience of strong negative emotions were the most consistent correlates of PG, regardless of whether they were analyzed using bivariate or multivariate analyses. In several instances, however, the relations between personality and PG were moderated by demographic variable such as gender, race, and age. It will be important for future empirical work of this nature to pay closer attention to potentially important moderators of these relations.

2018-11-03 04:15:19 UTC  

INTERESTING.

2018-11-03 04:15:31 UTC  

people argue about this all the time though

2018-11-03 04:15:54 UTC  

Personality tests tell you what you want to hear about yourself in the moment in which you take the test.

2018-11-03 04:15:58 UTC  

and it seems like the best argument goes like "these tests basically just repeat what you tell them"

2018-11-03 04:16:20 UTC  

but what if you take it on a regular basis?

2018-11-03 04:16:34 UTC  

won't this account for the problem?

2018-11-03 04:16:45 UTC  

There is objectively no scientific way to measure "personality"

2018-11-03 04:17:04 UTC  

MBTI is real just like polling and polygraphs and democracy.

2018-11-03 04:17:22 UTC  

^ and rape accusations

2018-11-03 04:17:22 UTC  

I can imagine many ways to objectively quantify personality traits

2018-11-03 04:17:40 UTC  

@missliterallywho well what about intraversion/extraversion.

2018-11-03 04:17:42 UTC  

Simply asking people about themselves is one

2018-11-03 04:17:46 UTC  

that seems like it's pretty well-documented

2018-11-03 04:18:01 UTC  

In the end something is scientifically valid if it comports with reality and is predictive

2018-11-03 04:18:10 UTC  

@Ald

I'm going to make a personality test that determines how fake and gay you think personality tests are.

2018-11-03 04:18:13 UTC  

Which clinical psychologists mostly think big 5 is
