It's a temperament assessment. I came up with the question based on the Keirsey stuff. Your answers mean you are an idealist :)

I have this idea of coming up with a set of questions based on a combination of temperaments, cognitive functions and perhaps interaction styles to come up with type.

Yah...please do it. I'm not even a fan of questioneres but I liked this one...basically because it was concise and yet decently descriptive. I would use this as a jumping off point for sure...thanks for it.

I did it "wrong" for optimal accuracy regarding my "personality".

Here's what I found

If it's practical, we know
it works and
is doable because
it's tried and true. "Mosquito netting is a practical solution to stop Malaria. The sleeping nets are affordable even for poor villages. Those villages with strict adherence have 95% reduction within a year."

If it's pragmatic, we think
it should work and
be doable because
it's similar to something tried and true. "USDA food relief was thought to be a pragmatic solution to hunger in Bolivia. However, the free bags of grain were only partially successful. The grain was not a normal part of Bolivian diet. They used the grain as chicken food, mitigating the mistake by consuming more chicken."

Can you chose between the ones where you selected multiple? Actually you should pick the answer that is most like you and the one that is least like you. I forgot to remind others of that.

Maybe instead of enthusiastic or excited - "fervent" or something else less extrovert-y and upbeat, but more about being "turned on" and "connected". Still not really what I "value being".

a. Practical
