Elemental Logic

[Orangey]

Anyone familiar with the Elemental Logic series by Laurie J. Marks? You should be. Here's a quiz from her website that (I assume?) she wrote herself.

It's a self-scoring quiz, but as there are only 12 questions and the scoring method is straightforward, it shouldn't be too big a problem.

edit: I took it twice to see what would be the top result and the second-best result after that.
But I decided to remove the influence of the second time because it confuses things too much.
If I post just the results of the first time, it looks like the above.

Contradictory
earth:water · fire:air

People with these mixes of elements may feel like they have a split view or double personality, but bridging the incompatibility can allow them to be flexible and capable of multiple perspectives. For instance, earth:water are driven to fix things yet reluctant to take action until the long-term ramifications are known; and fire:air are passionate yet rational.

 

[ReflecTcelfeR]

Water was highest by far. Seems fit for a Dom intuitive extroverted function. Then air was next.

Congratulations! You're the first person to score as Earth. I though that maybe having "dirt" listed as a medium was putting people off, but I guess I was at least partially wrong!

Orangey, I found this test really difficult since many of the answers would have fit, reliant on context of question. Might take another run at it later.

 

[OrangeAppled]

I got equal on 3 (a-c-d) the first time...

The second time, I scored evenly on a & c:

a - 5

c - 5

I liked the description. Then again, I didn't take the idea of Earth so literally. Probably why I didn't make the connection.
