TestMyBrain Multiracial Reading the Mind in the Eyes
Determine your social perception
Understanding what other people think and feel is central to social life. The Reading the Mind in the Eyes test (Baron-Cohen and colleagues, 2001) measures this ability using only the eye region of the face.
In this multiracial version from TestMyBrain, you see the eyes of people of different ethnicities and choose which of four words best describes what the person is thinking or feeling. Put simply, it measures how well you infer what others think and feel from subtle cues.
On the following pages, you can determine your social perception by completing a short task. It has to be completed in one sitting.
The results will be provided immediately after you have completed the final trial. Please note that the results you receive can only be reliable to the extent that you work attentively and without help.
This test is part of the validation study for the Quantitative Socionics Inventory. In case of any question, please write an e-mail (contact@quantitativesocionics.org) to the research team.
