How well do you fit into stereotypes that lean in a particular political direction? TIME magazine put together a 12-question quiz that aims to peg you politically by some parameters that have nothing to do with politics (while other parameters do). Try it out and let us know how accurate you think it is. I thought I would show up as a socialist, as usual, but the results have me at only 69% liberal. The problem seems to be that "agree a little" appears to be weighted the same as as "strongly agree." But I may be wrong, as the accompanying explanation tells us that some questions are weighted more than others. -via Digg
One thing I don't understand is how using a "modern browser" marks one as a liberal.
I've read Professor Gosling's scholarly work and randomly "creating" a survey like this is no measurement instrument. This is, at best, clickbait or data harvesting. At worst, it's not science, much less journalism.
