Psychological Test No. 0 Response Bias(I think this test is generally the most important)
If you do not know how to answer such questions correctly, your psychological testing will be generally pointless:
Are you in a bad mood?
Are you sometimes wrong?
Are you sometimes wrong?
Do you sometimes offend your loved ones?
Do you sometimes find yourself unable to concentrate?
Sometimes you do not have time to do everything?
Do you have bad days?
==============
If you answer no to such questions more than 1-2 times? This means that you have a tendency to tell lies about yourself - which means that you may not be interviewed by a psychologist at all when applying for a job ... it means that you are not objective towards yourself ... this means that it is generally pointless for you to answer psychological tests ! You lie too often and your test results will often be biased.

Psychological test number 1. Your favorite colors - test Luscher
You need to arrange the cards of different colors in order from the most pleasant to the most unpleasant. What does it mean? This test is aimed at determining the emotional state. Each card symbolizes a person's needs:
red color - the need for action

yellow - the need for striving for the goal, hope
green - the need to assert oneself;
blue - the need for affection, constancy;
purple - escape from reality;
brown - the need for protection;
black - depression.
The location of the cards means the following: the first two are the aspirations of a person, 3 and 4 are the true state of affairs, 5 and 6 are an indifferent attitude, 7 and 8 are antipathy, suppression.
Key to the test: in the first four must be red, yellow, blue, green- in what order, it is not so important. The arrangement of cards in an order close to the original draws a portrait of a purposeful, active person.

Psychological test number 2. Drawing lesson
You are offered to draw a house, a tree, a person. What does it mean? It is believed that in this way a person can demonstrate his self-perception in the world. In this psychological test, every detail matters: the location of the drawing on the sheet (located in the center, a proportional drawing indicates self-confidence), a single composition of all objects indicates the integrity of the individual, what kind of object will be displayed.
It is also important what will be drawn first: a house is a need for security, a person is an obsession with oneself, a tree is a need for vital energy. In addition, the tree is a metaphor for aspirations (oak - self-confidence, willow - on the contrary - uncertainty); a person is a metaphor for the perception of oneself by other people; house - a metaphor for the perception of oneself by a person (a castle - narcissism, a rickety hut - low self-esteem, dissatisfaction with oneself).
Key: Your drawing should be realistic and proportionate. To demonstrate your sociability and willingness to work in a team, do not forget about such details: the road to the porch (contact), the roots of the tree (connection with the team), windows and doors (goodwill and openness), the sun (cheerfulness), a fruit tree (practicality). ), pet (care).

Psychological test number 3. Story
You are shown pictures of people in various life situations and asked to comment on: what is happening; what the person thinks about; why is he doing this?
What does it mean? Based on the interpretation of the pictures, it is possible to determine the leading life scenarios of a person, in other words - "whoever hurts - he talks about it." It is believed that a person designs situations in pictures for his life and gives out his fears, desires, view of the world. So, for example, if a picture shows a crying or laughing person, then it is expected that by commenting on it, you will talk about your motives for joy or sadness.
Key: you need to control your answers and interpret the pictures in the most positive way.

Psychological test number 4. Inkblot - Rorschach test
You are shown pictures of a shapeless blob (usually symmetrical) and asked to describe what you see. What does it mean? This psychological test is somewhat similar to the previous one, it also reveals your true attitude to the world. A positive interpretation of pictures (for example, communication between people) speaks of you as an active, sociable, positive person, a negative one (in a blot you saw a monster, a dangerous animal) indicates that you have a lot of unreasonable fears or deep stress.
Key: if you associate a picture with something obviously negative, comment on it in a neutral way. For example, don't say, "I see people fighting," but say, "People are emotionally connected."

Psychological test number 5. IQ test

You are offered for a certain period of time (from 30 minutes) to answer several questions (from 40 to 200) of different directions - from mathematical problems to logical puzzles. What does it mean? These psychological tests are designed to determine the so-called Intelligence Coefficient. Although their effectiveness is increasingly in doubt (if a person has low scores, this does not necessarily mean that he is stupid, perhaps he has non-standard thinking, or he is simply trite inattentive), tests have maintained and increased their popularity for many years. The most common IQ tests are Eysenck.
Key: be as careful as possible, there are a lot of trick questions. If time is running out, and there are still a lot of questions - do not leave them without a solution, put down the answers at random, you will probably guess something.

================
If you are taking tests when applying for a job - be calm during the interview ... but don't give a damn - your motivation must be present but it should not go off scale ....

The most important! Don't get hung up on tests at all.
The more non-standard you are, the more original you think, the less tests tell the truth about you.
Physicist Einstein and inventor Edison were thought by high school teachers to be mentally handicapped...
Who remembers these teachers now... and who turned out to be right in the end?
