Soft agree: it's my current opinion, but I'm open to debate, and there may be a chance that I could be wrong.WILGA wrote:I have my problems with that test.
Not only are some of these questions not unambiguous enough, but the possible answers (strongly disagree, disagree, agree, strongly agree) are weird.
What is the difference between strongly disagree and disagree or agree and strongly agree?
I always though that either I agree or I disagree and that there is no possible way to increase my agreement or disagreement.
I mean, isn't it ike pregnant or dead: Either you are pregnant or you are not pregnant. Either you are dead or you are not dead. More pregnant or more dead is not possible.
And either you agree or you disagree. But how can you strongly agree or disagree?
And again: What is the difference between strongly disagree and disagree or agree and strongly agree?
Why would you choose to strongly agree with a statement instead of simply agreeing with it or vice versa?
How can you be sure, that you do not choose a strongly agree or a strongly disagree instead of the simple agree or disagree because you feel that the topic of that statement is more important than the topic of other statements?
Strong agree: i'm 200% sure what I think is true, I went over that question a million times and nothing can make me change.
The potential problem with that test is that it doesn't allow you a mid stance. You at least have to be for or against something, even if lightly, but I don't think anyone ever is really strictly halfway on a specific topic either. At best, it can happen on what? One question? If you think hard, you'll probably find yourself more on the pro or the con side.
We also need some [center] tag methinks.
