Quiz: What do your color preferences say about you? | How About Orange

Quiz: What do your color preferences say about you?

Select colors you like and dislike in this quiz. Then all sorts of data about your personality will be revealed.

An excerpt from my profile: "You are 54% extrovert and 46% introvert. You are dynamic, your actions are only directed by your own will and you know how to lead people. You are also able to have an in-depth thinking, you think before acting, and you know how to communicate your knowledge. Finally you are a manager and a structured person, you know how to take into account the needs of each person while leading them towards the set goals." If it's on the internet, it must be true.

That was fun. I felt like they were pretty spot on with my personality. Thanks for sharing.

The Hillbilly Wife said...

They were quite accurate. That was neat. Thanks!

Editor said...

Right on spot here too. Thanks for sharing!

Megumi said...

Is this me?

"You are a manager and a leader, and you know how to organize groups of people and how to give them your energy, You are intellectual and intelligent, you wonder and you inquire before taking any action and setting your values."

Mirka said...

Seems like it didn't work for me at all. I'm a 99% opposite of what that said about me :D

Grandma G said...

That was too hard!

I thought it would label me very indecisive. But actually, I didn't get an answer at all. Maybe I took too long. Maybe because I was playing FarmVille at the same time?

I have no personality. I always knew that.

Mum

Wow...that was really cool! Thanks1

Nikki said...

Mine says I'm a decision maker. Not true, but I'll take it!

CuriousDoodles said...

I'm not so sure about this quiz. I got the exact same results as you. Coincidence, I think not.

DianeY said...

I too got the same results as you & I have a hunch the orange may have been a lot higher in your preferences than mine!Hmmmm

Jessica Jones said...

You bet. Orange was my first pick! This does sound suspicious.

Mum, sorry to hear you have no personality. I guess that means you can get along with everyone.

Jessica Jones said...

Megumi, well, it doesn't leap out at me as being a perfect fit for you. Intelligent, yes, but I don't really think of you as the type to boss people around much. Though you do wrangle a bunch of little kids every day, so that must be what the quiz has detected.

Michelle Engel Bencsko said...

You are 53 % extrovert and 47 % introvert.
Dang, we're near identical!

Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. My parents and my husband see me as this big time extrovert and this just proves what I ahve been telling them all along. Sometimes I keep to myself.
I observe. I take notes and I don't join in. :)

Sharon said...

I got the exact same result as you, we must like the same colors. We're long lost sisters...

Kosmika said...

I'm a decision maker. WHAT????
OK, as you said: If it's on the internet, it must be true.
:D

gwen said...

"You are 58 % extrovert and 42 % introvert."
hahahahahahahaha

i wonder if the results of this change based on which colors are in vogue...

Anonymous said...

You are 56 % extrovert and 44 % introvert.

hmmm. no. :D

Maxabella said...

I wonder how it works... did anyone else freak out that they might choose the same colours as their least faves that they did in their faves? And then there was the pairs of the same colour and then... stressful! LOL.

Alfred T. Mahan said...

"You are 93% introvert and 7% extrovert. A ruthless intellectual megalomaniac who should be stopped at all costs before you seize power."

Huh. Who knew choosing blue and gray could work out so well? Thanks, Jess!

Jessica Jones said...

Hmmm, somehow I think someone skipped the quiz and wrote his own profile.

Megumi said...

Yeah, actually people around me say they cannot imagine Megumi as a teacher. Only when they behave badly, especially when I find rudeness, I'll scold kids with all my might, which make other teachers frightened, too. :)

beastmomma said...

What a fun quiz. The results made me sound much cooler than I feel, I posted my results here:

LiEr said...

Interesting quiz. Thanks for sharing it, Jess! There was no black. Pity. I would've have picked all the black squares and that would probably have revealed something deeply wrong with me - psychosis, or an intense need to buy slimming clothes.

Jessica Jones said...

Definitely psychosis. I can tell from your insanely cute stuffed chickens and pigs that you are a deeply disturbed individual.

Aspen said...

It's a Quiz! Im sorry if I was a upset Yesterday, That'l happen if I forget my meds, Aint Easy living with probs so just bear wit Me Mine says: 63% Extrovert and 37%introvert This has Brightened my Day!

Jessica Jones said...

Speaking of psychosis, keep taking those meds, Aspen. :) Glad you enjoyed the quiz.

Bek said...

I was slightly more extroverted than you, but got the same results otherwise. Though I admit that orange is my favorite color...

Speaking of psychosis, I did try to remember the order I had picked previously (when doing the reverse portion) and would always pick the colors in pairs... That's probably why they think I have some need for organization and in-depth thinking...

Silviai said...

I got the same answer! No kidding!

Terri said...

Great quiz, I think it was pretty right on for me. Thanks for sharing it.

Monica said...

Hey! That was pretty fun! Thanks for posting that.

Christy Amular said...

that was one fun and insightful quiz. Thanks Jess!

Alia said...

this is a bad version of the Lüscher color test. Read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lüscher_color_test

Lüscher's test is fairly accurate.

Tara said...

Very fun!

Gina said...

that was fun, but its easy to believe when they say nice things about you! haha im sure there are no "mean" ones

Plain Jane said...

Mine was right on. Thanks for sharing a fun link!

Kim Schneider said...

I think this was pretty spot on for me. Granted, all of the characteristics were positive, so I might claim this no matter what the results. :-)

Thanks for sharing.

Anonymous said...

Interesting, I did it quickly the first time and didn't think it was quite me. I took my time the second time around and it really was me, amazing, thanks.

Dina said...

Thanks for sharing. I did it as fast as I could and got 55 % extrovert and 45 % introvert. Can't say whether it's accurate or not, though.

Anonymous said...

that's the exact same profile as me. I think it's full of baloney

Ismail N said...

Fun to do, but not quite accurate, unfortunately.

Owlpotheosis said...

I didn't find it to be accurate whatsoever. And there were typos in the result. I also think that there was a lack of color variation, no emphasis on shade/value - only on raw hypersaturated color. It was fun. But also troubling, as I struggled to eliminate every teal square only to discover more, tucked snuggly in the shadow of some comforting sanguine.
