#psychological tests

Listening to a webinar on emotions and leadership at the workplace. The lecturer did a test where showed us three grey triangles and asked us "what do you see?"

Well my first reaction was: "top down view of three people talking. They're just symbolized by the squares."

Turns it if you're in a neutral mood you see three grey squares. If you're in a positive mood you see something else. Being in a positive mood increases creativity.

I shouldn't be in a positive mood, I woke up several times during the night and woke up one last time to a stomach ache. I like learning though.

Maybe I'm a more positive (or creative) person than I think?? Huh.

There are algorithmic tests to see if someone is biased, and what their biases are, which is essentially the notion behind “precrime” featured in the movie Minority Report, just under a different name. A perfect test to use to determine if someone is qualified for their position as a judge, or head of another government office with important responsibilities.
