ADDENDUM


Many years ago, when I was at the Kent School of Social Work, I was introduced to the Lüscher Color Test, a psychological test invented by Dr. Max Lüscher. In those days we accessed the test from the book written by Dr. Lüscher: it the back of the book, in a slot similar to what we once found in the back of library books, were were cards, each one a different, solid color. To take the test, we would arrange the cards in order of our preference for its color. Then we would find the results within the book, each card and its placement among the others giving a different psychological reading.

We students expressed our amazement at the accuracy of the results. It wasn't that the results gave us great insight into our psychological make-up, but did seem to provide an accurate reading of our emotions at the moment we selected the order of the cards. Due to changes in our situations and emotions, we would obtain different results if we took the test at another time.

The Color Quiz is evidently an online and much simplified version of the Lüscher Color Test. I must note that, no matter how accurate the results seem, they are (1) a cross section of the taker at the moment he/she took the test and (2) more of a parlor game than a actual psychological test. (I say that realizes that the online test I took yesterday seemed to me to be extremely accurate at that moment and even gave me some insight into what is going on with me).

Thus, I took the online test again this afternoon and came up with these results, which are a bit different than the results of yesterday, but still quite accurate in describing me at the moment of the quiz:

  1. Your Stress Sources
    Feels that life has far more to offer and that there are still important things to be achieved--that life must be experienced to the fullest. As a result, she pursues her objectives with a fierce intensity that will not let go of things. Cannot leave things alone and feels she can only be at peace when she has finally reached her goal.

    Your Actual Problem
    The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

    Oh my Nick...my son would say this is me to a T.

  3. Hi Nick ~~ Interesting test results for you. Didn't work for me either.
    Thanks for your comments. I can
    imagine being embarrassed at 24 being called "Sir" in the army. But I wouldn't be embarrassed now when you are called Sir. They are just showing respect for age and common courtesy.
    I am a good few years older and I don't mind being called a little old lady, because that's what I am and get some respect for being that. Take care Nick, Regards, Merle.

  7. Too SPOOKY

    Your Existing Situation
    Seeks to share a bond of understanding intimacy in an esthetic atmosphere of peace and tenderness.

    Your Stress Sources
    Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which she imposes of herself or by her own choice and decision.

    The rest was spot on too.

  8. I took the test twice and came up with different results. But they still had an element of truth! I hope you are well Nick.

  9. This is a pretty interesting test. I see how your results changed with your mood. I believe the first line in your second test was the same as mine. Maybe I'll post mine. I've had the flower pictures up since Sunday.

    Thanks!

  10. OK, I took it and it began with "Physical illness, over-tension, or emotional distress have taken a severe toll. Her self-esteem has been reduced and she now needs peaceful conditions and considerate treatment to permit recovery."

    That's all I feel safe in sharing. It was really on-target

  11. I took it, but am unhappy with the results. I think I prefer the Myers-Briggs.

  12. OMG, this really spooked me. I swear i could have written the results myself, its very spooky, VERY!
    It basically says that i am afraid of being restricted and fulfilling my dreams and goals, that i want to live life to its fullest.
    The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.
