    I'm more female, but I have a more male brain than the average woman who took that test


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 368 ✭✭Geiger


    Heh, does it say anything if I abandoned the test just because it required me searching for a ruler?

    I was surprised that I scored 9/10 on the eyes test.. guess I'm a good empathizer.. :rolleyes:

    my left thumb was on top

    18/20 in the spatial relations thing

    my brain bar at the end read +50 in the male half of the spectrum..

    feminine preferences with the faces

    that's all I can remember.. should've kept my results..

    interesting test, but does take a while..

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 432 ✭✭Daelus

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu

    Yeah - my brain thought it would finally get laid and then... nothing. :mad: rant etc

    I thought the Ultimatum question was good.

    I'm surprised how many said €25 quid, I said €35 figuring that a free€15 quid would be enough to tempt the second person to agree and over come there anger at my greed :D

    Again I think it would have been better if they said like 50,000 or something and see what people would opt for. 1,000,000 and so on and see how they split it.

    I can understand looking for 25, seems safe and sensible maybe, 24 or anything under 25 seems bizarre to me.

    The question was something like...

    if you were paired with someone and brought into a room, you are offered 50quid to split between the two of you, you get to pick how much you want, if the 2nd party agrees then you get both get the agreed amounts, if they disagree then you both get nothing. How much would you demand?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu


    Oh - what was the question?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,301 ✭✭✭airetam_storm


    I have a strong female brain? WTF? Thats a bit harsh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 328 ✭✭Tiffany


    Brain sex? Wow, they have something for everyone these days...

    I have a strongly male brain... weird. 20/20 in the angles test...whatever that means.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    No surprises there at all...

    The empathy is strong in me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,488 ✭✭✭Goodshape


    A perfect 0.

    You're given £50 and told to devide it between yourself and one other. If the other person accepts what you offer them, all is good. If they don't then niether of you get anything.

    How much to you keep / offer?

    Do they know how much money you have been given?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Yook


    I got 0, what does that mean?

    Not sure that it said either way. I presumed not.

    Well, that's important to know. I'd give different answers depending on whether they did or not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,249 ✭✭✭✭Kinetic^


    I got 25 on the male side

    yes, they do know, that was the whole point of it.

    I edited my orginal post with this, you might have missed it:

    i demanded £40. and that was being fairly generous. :D

    my reasoning is that if someone has a choice between a free tenner or nothing, what are they going to pick?
