    Trouble with Regular Conversations?

    Oh wow. It never occurred to me that the customer might have thought it was a negative statement towards their diet or weight until you just mentioned it. I was just trying to be more personable and stated the obvious because I couldn't think of anything else to say. I honestly only figured...

    Trouble with Regular Conversations?

    Sorry for the length. I have a strange problem in trying to follow conversations that either focus or reference fiction (popular drama, Sci-fi or otherwise). Despite having tried repeatedly, fictional books, movies and television programs always fly right past my head. I've never been able...

    Autism and Migration

    It seems like faulty logic to me. I'd suppose that from a simple perspective, looking for a common denominator (even though the topic is yet solidly defined) could lead to stumbling over new revelations. But it would make more sense to first consider what is known, such as the apparent...

    Recurring silence

    Humor would be helpful but my sense of humor tends to be literal instead of situational. Anyway, I'm glad to see it's not just me. It's probably just so problematic for me since I only have two emotions: anger and not-anger, though I very, very rarely get angry (maybe once a year). Mostly...

    Recurring silence

    I don't know if this is a universal issue but does anyone else find that once an emotion enters the picture, the ability to speak leaves and you go on autopilot as far as going about what your supposed to be doing, only silently. It doesn't matter which emotion, though for me it's usually anger...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    I've decided against using a form as I probably won't get anything done all winter if I have data to analyze, so I put it on my random ideas blog instead just to make it available for other people to consider. (It will also allow me to move on to another subject to think about.)

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    Yes, I'd put that as an "A" answer. To AC people, Based on everyone's feedback here, I've reworked the quiz a little and put it on it's own page: https://sites.google.com/site/thinkingstylesstudy/ so that people can use or submit their answers and feedback anonymously. I think if I can get...

    Visual Thinking

    I stumbled across the idea the day before I posted that while dissecting a few Thinking Style quizzes which were based on Gregorc's 4-Quadrant Mind Model and searching to compare a variety of summaries or interrpretations of the four types that might differ at least slightly. It was on this...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    I think having a fill in the blank option E would be advantageous for further developing each styles description, though it wouldn't be feasible to calculate it towards a person's score.

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    Those are good points. I definitely should have added to the directions "If none of the given answer options are similar your answer, then leave the question unanswered and skip to the next question". As for whether or not results can be inconclusive, I suspect that theoretically a person can...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    The terms were actually the product of the following reasoning. 1. First, there was the original consideration of visual and non-visual thinking. 2. Then I found numerous articles / testimonies describing visual thinking as watching a slide show or film, which must mean that it follows an...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    I wonder if this would be more accurate: C's - Associative Visual Thinker. Your brain thinks and reasons in a visual manner similar to analyzing a collage of photographs. Whether learning, organizing information, or solving problems you gravitate and refer to concrete established systems...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    Thanks for the input, jimited. The results (descriptions) are definitely yet well developed. It was the part of creating this quiz that I found most difficult, making logical inferences based on dominant styles. Perhaps you'd be willing to offer your insight into the Associative Visual Thinker...

    What Type of Thinker Are You? Quiz

    (The following quiz I've created as an attempt to help me figure out myself and others. It is based on my own developing theories and should not be considered as any sort of truth. Note: I am not a psychologist or researcher, I just simply get stuck on things and excessively analyze them. I...
