HOW THIS TEST WORKS
How Am I Judgmental? works
How version core-v1 is scored, and what it can and cannot tell you.
How it is scored
Being judgmental is not a diagnosis. Research shows that people often explain others' behavior by their character instead of their situation (Ross, 1977), that stereotypes are a natural but often wrong shortcut (Allport, 1954), and that intellectual humility, being open to the idea that you might be wrong, helps people learn and get along (Leary and others, 2017).
This test looks at five areas: quick judgments, criticizing others' choices, being closed to other views, putting people in boxes, and holding others to your standards. Each area has eight sentences. Half describe the habit and half describe the opposite, so you cannot get a high score just by agreeing with everything. Each answer gives 0 to 4 points.
Each area score runs from 0 to 100. Your overall score is the average of the five areas. Scores are read as Low (0 to 33), Medium (34 to 66), or High (67 to 100). These levels show how you answered. They do not compare you with other people.

What it cannot tell you
This test is for learning about yourself. It is not a diagnosis. Do not use it to label yourself or anyone else, or to make work or hiring decisions.
People tend to rate themselves as more open-minded than they are. Your answers can also depend on the topics you were thinking about.
This version has not yet been tested with a large group of people, so we do not yet know how accurate it is.
