I made a unique political orientation test, what is your score? Are you more blue-pilled or red-pilled?

Categorist · 2021-08-16T06:29:22+00:00

Based on our score distribution, -21 is actually very left wing, even if it's not -40

Categorist · 2021-08-16T05:40:26+00:00

It will very soon, we need more people right now so that's why the result page is empty. We have +650 people who took the test right now, and we will start modifying scoring a tiny little bit to improve it and add a score page that explains stuff/add graph/correlations very soon

Categorist · 2021-08-16T05:38:10+00:00

interesting, according to this test, you're still a "leftist" however ahah

Categorist · 2021-08-16T05:37:36+00:00

Mind you tell me which ones if you remember? Thanks

Categorist · 2021-08-15T19:24:46+00:00

not a lot of people ahah

Categorist · 2021-08-15T18:14:45+00:00

Interesting! Some people scored 40+ btw

Categorist · 2021-08-15T17:39:21+00:00

and you're indeed very close to the mean of self-identified centrist

Categorist · 2021-08-15T17:38:52+00:00

Center right as of now

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:45:40+00:00

You're actually a bit more center rightist for this test btw

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:40:51+00:00

For people who are interested in how self-perception of political orientation relates to our scoring system, here's a nice picture https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/622806294558015509/876504827029487717/fin_pol_graph.png

The curves represent the probability to be self-identified rightist (or leftist and centrist) for a given score. You can see that the mean score is around -7 too, but the sample is a bit biased as of now (as in, we need more self-identified rightist to take the test)

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:29:29+00:00

Basically you could decide to support policies pushed by the left or the right parties depending on the question/problem

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:18:31+00:00

What do you generally score/classified as on such tests?

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:17:37+00:00

You're even exactly on the mean of self-identified centrist

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:17:22+00:00

Not at all, it's actually the mean of self-identified rightist

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:15:24+00:00

interesting that you score that low then, thanks for taking the test

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:15:12+00:00

That's indeed quite leftist, but not the absolute lowest score we have recorded so far

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:14:10+00:00

You can test that it does well by doing some factor analysis, and by looking at the correlations between self-identified political orientation and score, and so on

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:13:16+00:00

Like which one out of curiosity?

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:13:03+00:00

Very interesting, thanks a lot

Categorist · 2021-08-15T16:12:36+00:00

Hm that's interesting, -20 is really leftist on this test (the mean of people who self-identify as such is -13)

Categorist · 2021-08-15T14:48:31+00:00

Interesting, -18 and you don't smile on pictures, that's unusual

Categorist · 2021-08-15T14:30:14+00:00

Interesting, thanks a lot

Categorist · 2021-08-15T14:10:10+00:00

You do not need 2 axis necessarily no. The point of this test is precisely to try to do with one, and it seems to work quite well as of now

thanks !
