The FIVE Temperaments (Melancholy, Choleric, Phlegmatic, Sanguine & SUPINE!

Since I have heard that there are now 5 temperaments - not only the four most of us know (by now) - I wanted to find an online test. However, I couldn't find any interactive Five Temperaments Test!

So I made one yesterday!

I am not entirely sure about validity, reliablility, etc. But I've tried to get different results and it worked. There might still be the problem that most scores will be around the middle.

I really appreciate some feedback!

Thank You!!!

The Five Temperaments Test at HelloQuizzy

You are mostly Choleric

You scored 89% on Choleric!

Congratulations!


You are motivated by the prospect of power.

Your inner need is to look good academically, to be right and to be respected and approved.



You want to hide your insecurities tightly, and you want to please yourself. You want to lead and to have challenging adventures.

You are independent and you have goals. You know how you want to solve a problem. You are decisive and a visionary.

But you can also be cruel, egotistical, unemotional, domineering, and unforgiving.


Phlegmatic came in second with 55%



Love the cartoons. they were great, and the last question was the best. Nice job

@Dear Sigmund Thank you.

Hehe...and here are my own results:


You are mostly Melancholy

You scored 76% on Melancholy!

Congratulations!


You are motivated by the prospect of intimacy.

Your inner need is to be morally good, to be understood and appreciated. You need to be accepted.

You want to reveal your insecurities to others. You want to please. But you also want to have both autonomy and security.

You are gifted. You often act self sacrificing and helpful. You are also very thoughtful and faithful.

But you can also be moody, critical, negative, resentful, and suspicious.



You should also take a look at your second and maybe third strongest temperament!


Second: Supine 44%
Third: Sanguine 38%
closely followed by: Phlegmatic 35%
and finally: 22% Choleric

I'm actually a bit sceptical about the big gap between the strongest and the second strongest temperament and about the somewhat close scores for the second, third, and fourth strongest...
Plus I'm not sure about supine as second strongest. Very often I'm much too impulsive for this...

You are mostly Choleric

You scored 81% on Choleric!

I scored Sanguine Phlegmatic on the Four Temperaments Quiz. It's hard for me to say to what I relate to more ... see, I AM very Sanguine Phlegmatic, however Melancholy is a good descriptor of me too. Having suffered from depression, maybe my personality has been influenced in such a way that I can relate to Melancholy more ... but if I were to say, "on a good day" it would more so be the former. I only say this to help your understanding...
I think you could improve this one by having more information about the 5 temperaments and about the questions. I say this cuz it's hard to answer sometimes whether oneself is "diligent" because you may Want to be but you may Not be. Hope this helps even a little :P

You are mostly Phlegmatic
You scored 57% on Phlegmatic!

Congratulations!


You are motivated by the prospect of peace.

Your inner need is to feel good inside. You need to be understood and respected. You need acceptance and you need to reveal your insecurities.

You want to please others. And you want protection and contentment.

You are a peace maker. You are quiet and have high self control. You have the ability to stay calm in crisis. You are efficient and a good listener.

But you can also be unmotivated, procrastinating, indecisive, fearful and avoidant.



I had between 43% and 57% for each option, but I agree with this one most.

Thanks for your feedback.
Hm...Yeah, if you want to be something but you are not, that's when you might just not click yes or no. I could have made an "I don't know" option which would basically do the same as not clicking. Would just be more work. Maybe I need to make it clearer that you're supposed to not click when you don't think it fits...

(Diligent is supposed to be a "Supine" trait, btw. xD)

I've just been lookig for some more information. There isn't really that much on wikipedia...but there is something...But I'll try to find more.
