What Is Your Social IQ?

[entropie]

29/36 probably because I clicked "intrested" for all female eyes xD

 

[Kanra Jest]

30/36 better than over 70 percent of participants.. I took it earlier

Most were easy but every so often I get tangled up.

 

[chado]

20/36 i actualy thought i was going to get 0 right lol

Same eyeballs as another test of the same ilk. Same comment from me -- some of the emotional labels they've assigned are incorrect.

How universal are people's facial expressions for a given emotion anyway? I would think we collectively exhibit much more variation than to make a test like this even meaningful. I looked at each set of eyes and determined what emotion I thought they represented. Rarely was my choice even among those offered. Then it became a process of elimination.

Your score is 24 out of 36.
Your score is lower than 78% of all participants


I'm still a genius! Regardless of what that stupid test says, ..l..

 

[Abendrot]

31. That's a lot higher than I expected.

 

[that's not my name]

33/36. It didn't give me a percentile score, it just said that the average was 26.

This score seems like its in the feeler as opposed to thinker range.

 

[Norrsken]

Your score is 28 out of 36.
Your score is equal or better than 64% of all participants.

 

[Abendrot]

33/36. It didn't give me a percentile score, it just said that the average was 26.

Maybe because you scored too high?
I'm skeptical about these percentiles, given the average of the scores that people are posting.

 

[Forever]

Your score is 32 out of 36.
The average score is 26.
Does this test work equally well for all people around the world?
This test was developed in Great Britain and the images you saw were taken from British magazines in 1990's. Unsurprisingly, the test doesn't work perfectly for people who are not native speakers of English or for people who come from cultures that are very different from Britain's.

Should you worry if you got a low score?
No. Your screen lighting level, mood, fatigue and many other factors might have affected your score. The results of this test are useful when they are averaged across many people, but they can be inaccurate for any individual person.

 

[Galena]

28 out of 36.

 

[Mayflower]

29 out of 36. I did better than I expected. People say of oblivious of emotional queues.

 

[KitchenFly]

My social IQ is 468

Yes that is correct I am the second coming of the Christ.

 

[baccheion]

Your score is 28 out of 36.

Your score is equal or better than 64% of all participants.

It's lower than I thought it would be. I'm usually good at reading eyes.

 

[Obfuscate]

Your score is 32 out of 36.

 

[Ghost of the dead horse]

25 out of 36, better than 28% (worse than 72%)

I understand social dynamics bit better though, this test gives an unnecessary low estimate of my SQ

 

[Betty Blue]

I got 27 out of 36, I'm not surprised. I think i took this a while back with similar result. I'd place myself around the average or just above average in reading people by their eye photographs...haha. If i was with an actual person and spent time with them I think I'd have a pretty good read on them by looking into their eyes though. Just Fi.

 

[erg]

25/36

 

[cosmic royal]

31/36

 

[Firebird 8118]

Your score is 27 out of 36.
Your score is lower than 55% of all participants.

Huh - I was expecting to do worse, actually. I'm terrible at reading people's expressions, especially if it's just reading eyes.
