Type A or B Personality.. Which are you?

[Sikeliot]

Take this if you want.

http://www.psych.uncc.edu/pagoolka/typea-b-intro.html

Type A is basically characterized by being overachieving, always feeling a sense of urgency and being in a rush, extreme drive to accomplish often unrealistic goals, impatience, irritability when things do not go according to plan, and a need for constant order structure and rule.

Type B is the opposite.

[Barreldriver]

I scored 213.

Range of scores 35 - 380
Low Scores are Type B
High Scores are Type A

Not sure how accurate the test can be as a whole but as for myself I'm not shocked, I act in a typical manner for men of my lineage and we have been called an irritable bunch who at times work to incapacitation, and we are never late (often half an hour early). I am the most laid back between my father, grandfather, and myself. I would imagine that papaw and grandpaps would score in the 300's.

[Sikeliot]

I got 340.

[Birka]

140

Same here. That would be type B i guess...



Type B
The theory describes Type B individuals as perfect contrast to those with Type A personalities. People with Type B personalities are generally apathetic, patient, relaxed, easy-going, no sense of time schedule, and at times lacking an overriding sense of urgency. These individuals tend to be sensitive of other people's feelings

I've got 268

[Gaztelu]

272

I am a 2nd tier try-hard.

[Sikeliot]

I'm beating you all in terms of being the most uptight, perfectionist competitive, schedule-oriented, irritated and hostile person on the board, apparently! :lol:

[Nglund]

I got 118, not giving a feck :whistle:...

You obviously lied on some questions. :coffee:

The dividing line is 172 so Type B is about right.

[Flintlocke]

313

[rhiannon]

243

That's about right. Sometimes I can be the epitome of efficiency....other times....a lazy ass:)

[Tolleson]

172. Sometimes just gotta get shit done! :thumb001:

[Amapola]

210

[European Loyalist]

179

[Supreme American]

212. Think I'm a mix of both.

[Veneda]

154

[GeistFaust]

I got a 250, which I think I can be about 30-50 points more on certain things, because I can be a bulldog on some things I am ambitious about.

[askra]

195

[Graham]

110 points, take it that would mean Type B.

[SilverKnight]

Type A , I got 240


Range of scores 35 - 380
Low Scores are Type B
High Scores are Type A

[SilverKnight]

243

That's about right. Sometimes I can be the epitome of efficiency....other times....a lazy ass:)

Very close to mines :)

[Comte Arnau]

187

Fairly in the middle, I'd say.

[Graham]

I got 118, not giving a feck :whistle:...



Yeh, we don't like you ;)!

Type A are the OCD crew...hate them all:shakefist

[Azalea]

122

I am a B type. :mad:

*Oops, I misread something. I thought low scores = type A.

[Styggnacke]

265

I'm definitely a type A person. I hate it when things don't get done as fast as possible and I find "there is no need to rush"-people to be extremely irritating.

172 is the dividing line so you are an A

[Midori]

110 points, take it that would mean Type B.

I got the same score :coffee:

[Ulfricstormcloak]

I got Type A 195. Probably because I am sorta OCD.

[LadyFirehawk]

154. I hate being rushed.

[Pallantides]

My score: 152

[CelticViking]

360

[Arthur Scharrenhans]

My score is 184, but I don't think the test was very well made. (For example, several questions were about what other people think of me - you'd better ask them, don't you?)

Let's see: I hate schedules, I hate being rushed and I really, really love idleness, so I suppose I should be type B.
On the other hand, when I do bother with doing something, I set very high standards for myself and for whoever is working with me, so I'd describe myself more like a lazy perfectionist.

[Furnace]

202

Borders A and B I guess.

[Arrow Cross]

185. Balance is strong in this one.

[CelticViking]
