My scores are as low as they are because many of the questions had parts where I could not agree at all, even if I had a sense where they were aiming.

The results seem fair enough.

let it be known that i'm under no delusions whatsoever that anyone gives a big crap what my results are. i'm posting them here as a way to save my results, with the link, for when i'm having fun with someone who might actually care, and need them to compare, etc. that said, on with the pointless and invisible show:

Your Personality Profile Type: Idiosyncratic

(Self, Real World)

Not like anyone else. Dreamers, seekers of the spirit, visionaries, mystics. True originals and they stand out.

(oh, brother. if they stroked it any harder, it'd ricochet off of lamps.)

Inner life: Idiosyncratic individuals are tuned in to and sustained by their own feelings and belief systems, whether or not others accept or understand their particular world view or approach to life.

Own World: They are self-directed and independent, requiring few close relationships.

Own thing: Oblivious to convention, Idiosyncratic individuals create an interesting, unusual, often eccentric lifestyle.

Expanded reality: Open to anything, they are interested in the occult, the extrasensory, and the supernatural.

Metaphysics: They are drawn to abstract and speculative thinking.

Outward view: Though they are inner-directed and follow their own hearts and minds, Idiosyncratic men and women are known observers of others, particularly sensitive to how other people react to them.

[CzeCze]

Dramatic
(Emotions, Relationships)
All heart, have been granted with the gift of feeling, The world is a stage for those of this style.

{hahahaaha, holy I am NOT a drama queen! I swear...really...maybe}

Feelings: Dramatic men and women live in an emotional world. They are sensation oriented, emotionally demonstrative, and physically affectionate. Theyreact emotionally to events and can shift quickly form mood to mood.

Color: They experience life vividly and expansively. They have rich imaginations, they tell entertaining stories, and they are drown to romance andmelodrama.

Spontaneity: Dramatic individuals are lively and fun. Their joie de vivre leads them to act on impulse to take advantage of the moment.

Applause: Compliments and praise are like food and water to persons with Dramatic style: they need them to go on.

Appearance: They pay a lot of attention to grooming, and they enjoy clothes, style, and fashion.

Sexual attraction: In appearance and behavior, Dramatic individuals enjoy their sexuality. They are seductive, engaging, charming tempters and temptresses.

BTW, I disagree. Dramatic/idiosyncratic/leisurely are usually my top 3 scores, but idiosyncratic edges out dramatic.

See, Jennifer did give some kind of crap.

 

[digesthisickness]

See, Jennifer did give some kind of crap.

yeah, for about four seconds, then she left me hanging like an idiot.

 

[Totenkindly]

yeah, for about four seconds, then she left me hanging like an idiot.

I do crap all over the place, but then I tidy up after myself.

(If you would like, I'll smear it all over the walls next time. )


... I couldn't help it. You just make me smile... dammit. sigh. I know you probably hate hearing that...

[Ezra]

I've just realised I'm the only person who so far identifies with the Aggressive style.

 

[Electric]

now there are two of us.

 

[Nocapszy]

Idiosyncratic
Solitary
Adventurous
Leisurely
Aggressive


I didn't do the test. Just guessed based on the descriptions.

 

[The Unknown Essence]

The two styles I am closest to are:

Solitary
Idiosyncratic

Though some of the others match with me partially.

 

[wedekit]

I actually own the book. Some of them, such as Inventive, aren't actually part of Oldham Style as far as I know. But that's beside the point.

I took the 104 question test in the book. I definitely belong to the Sensitive type, as the chapter describes major aspects about me accurately. I also have close scores between Conscientiousness, Solitary, and Idiosyncratic, but they are all slightly below sensitive. Everything else is pretty low.

I really like this personality theory, I wish it was elaborated on more.
