Extrovert or Introvert?

10/29/2021

Which are you? You probably know, but this Color Test can confirm (or contradict) your intuition. There’s considerable research evidence to support the validity and reliability of the test. I took it twice, choosing somewhat different colors each time, but ended up with the same score: half extrovert, half introvert.
         
This result confirms my feeling that, although I was an introvert and painfully shy forty years ago, I’ve steadily progressed toward the extrovert end of the spectrum. This drawn-out change possibly explains why, many years ago, I was interested in Quakerism but only recently joined the Society. In the past, I was too withdrawn and fearful to join; but, as my extroversion has increased, I’ve finally acquired the courage to become a member.

Perhaps, for you too, this test will explain some aspect of your Quakerism.

I'm sorry.

I don't find the color test to which you refer. Perhaps I'm just a "vert".

Peace,
Don

Hi, Don.
Well, I happen to know that "verts" are intelligent, generous people with a sense of humor.

After clicking on the link "Color Test" in the article, a web page should come up with the title "The Happiness Quiz: How Happy are you? SCROLL DOWN. Below the picture of the smiling girl, you should find a green button that says "Start My Quiz Now."
Click on the green button and a rectangle of colors should appear. That's the test itself, of course.

In the blog article, I didn't mention that the Happiness Quiz is actually a test of "happiness skills." I guess it's possible to have happiness skills without being happy. Not likely, though.

Well, darn. When you click the " color test" link, a rectangle of colors appears. THAT'S the color test. Click the colors in your order of preference and the result will be displayed after you finish.

If you get the title page, click the green button below the girl. But apparently my link goes directly to the quiz.

I confused the "Happiness Quiz" and the "Color Test." Happy Colors! And apologies for the mistake.
