5.07 On My Happiness Test
I scored 5.07 on my Happiness Test. According to Wright, S (n.d.), 4-5: Rather happy; pretty happy. Check other score ranges for some of my suggestions. 5-6: Very happy. Being happy has more benefits than just feeling good. It’s correlated with benefits like health, better marriages, and attaining your goals. Most likely I would place myself in the same category as I scored on my test. Therefore I agree with the results of this test. I'm happy about getting number 5 on my test. The test confirms that most of the time I'm pleased with my life, but luckily I don't stay in that constant happiness state because I would not notice the difference if that were the case. This test did not change my thoughts about my level of happiness.

    I must say that I do agree with the results of the test, but there are some aspects of it that I feel to be untrue. In general, I have to always stay busy and involved with various activities. I like being around people, leading, teaching and stimulating others into positive performances. I also like to act on things as opposed to just talking about it. Other people view me as having an outgoing personality. I also am able to relate to and have friends from all walks of life. On the other hand, I am one who does have to think things through, plan ahead, and am very structured (with things in order). I think that I am more a Sensing personality than a Intuitive one. I am more practical and a more hands on individual. Meaning, I often use and trust my experience before words and symbols. (Humanetrics.com, 1998-2011)…

    In philosophical literature, Marquis argued that abortion was/is immoral, except only in rare exceptions, but more importantly he noted that prochoice and anti-abortion arguments cannot be symmetric thus making discussion on the topic quite a conundrum. Marquis purported the arguments of anti-abortionist, who asserted and believed that life is present at or from the moment of conception, and that fetuses look like babies, possess genetic code, and are therefore in possession of the qualities and attributes of being humans. While pro-choicers typically assert that fetuses are not persons as they are not rational agents or social beings. Marquis did however exclaim that anti- abortionist and pro-choicers arguments/beliefs exhibit two similarities,…

    Obviously humans are very complicated creatures, and a computer test can't completely encapsulate someone's personality, but whoever made this test did their research.

    26 subjects were asked to complete a decision making task, each decision that was made lead to a gain or loss of money. A functional MRI was used to measure the subject’s neural activity as well as an oral response while participating in the activity. Subjects were asked repeatedly during the activity whether or not they were happy. By using the data reported by the subjects and the MRI, scientists concluded that the participant’s happiness was due to rewards and expectations. The study then went on to test 18,420 subjects in a game entitled "What Makes Me Happy," an app on smartphones created by UCL. Even though during the game, participants did not win real money, the loss or gain of points still caused them to increase or decrease their happiness levels. Scientists then concluded that when a person receives a reward, a person’s happiness level increases dramatically. On the other side, however when one has high expectations that cannot be met, their happiness level decreases greatly (UCL…

    I was somewhat taken aback with the opportunities part of my results. I did not score as high as I would have liked to score in this section. I scored the lowest in presenting. I scored a 1 out of 5 and I did agree with that because presenting is not one of my strongest things to do although I know I have to work on that as much as possible. I did think that coping with pressure could have been higher but I scored a 2 out of 5 on that. On goal focus, I scored a 2 out of 5 and that made me feel horrible because I have set goals for myself and sometimes I push my goals to the back of my list to accommodate my life or help other people with their goals.…

    As we grow older we change; these changes are most visible during infancy and childhood. From birth, babies grow larger and show noticeable development in both their social and intellectual competence. The study of age-related changes in human behaviour is referred to as developmental psychology. Child development refers to the psychological and biological changes that occur in individuals from birth to adolescence. By understanding child development, psychologists know what to expect in infants and children at each developmental stage, and can therefore establish the limitations in infant’s and children’s growth and achievement.…
