"i would be tempted to take it even if only to find out what my IQ score was... as long as it is higher than I can hit a round of golf in (between 95-100) i'd be happy.... as long as i get to decide to show it or not....." You don't- the test is optional, the results will be put on your profile for all to see? | |||

"If there was an optional test to tell you your IQ and it then went up on your profile, would you take it? Would you take notice of others on their profiles? Or is it a load of tosh? ![]() I know load of people with very high IQ's but they all lack common sense, they're always reading too much into the situation. So I don't really rate it | |||

"also aren't IQ tests flawed due to peoples varying cultural experiences?" Cultural differences making them flawed? Well that’s old hat for nearly 30 years its been possible to conduct culture free IQ tests which test general intellectual ability in a valid unbiased way based on the individual not on society or culture. I thought everyone knew that! | |||

"also aren't IQ tests flawed due to peoples varying cultural experiences?" If we are being pedantic Mbti is more accurate as it highlights peoples intrinsic values and differentiates them from learned characteristics (cultural and experiential). Probably more useful for fab shenanigans Sorry to be a geek ![]() | |||

"MBTI is a personality test often used by managers in business, or on MBA courses to try and understand different types of character traits. This is NOT the same as IQ. Also most tests, of any sort, tend to have their own inherent flaws. Non are perfect. However over time the flaws tend to be smoothed out making them less so. I know my own IQ but I'm not sure how useful knowing it would be on a swinging site. However having said that it can add to the friendship side of things where stimulating and challenging conversations may be desired. Also if you're a member of Mensa then there's a whole social side, outside of swinging, to be enjoyed." You are quite correct the suggestion of an mbti assessment was an alternative proposal which people may find more useful on a swinging site against an arbitrary representation of intelligence. Mbti is also better at assessing peoples emotional intelligence (a great reference point being Daniel Goleman) which i would imagine is quite relevant to site members. As with most personality tools (psychometrics etc) they have been butchered for recruitment profiling with a horrible over reliance on data that can be interpreted in different ways depending on viewpoints and pre conceptions. If you don't understand what you are asking then you can't rely on the answer. | |||

This MBTI sounds like the McQuaig test I had to take when I interviewed for my job 6 years ago and to be honest, some of it sounds nothing like me at all so I think personally, if it gets one a job, one would say what they wanted the employer to hear and what they think is important to them and therefore not a true reflection of that person | |||
