Sociopath Community

I have my own asshole, thank you very much.  You are one and that's endearing for you.

I wonder what personality disorder this question relates to:

"I would be interested in doing research on plants or animals."

These are your results on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory. 

Your score is 9, out of 40. Higher scores indicate greater levels of narcissism. 

Below is a graph of how other people have scored on this test. 

While your question may have a facetiousness to it, it puzzles me, too.  Do they have "fluff" questions to pad gaps or throw in red herrings to mitigate trends or reinforce/balance the answer from another question?  I don't know.  Perhaps there is something in details and/or analysis which lends itself to OCD or something.  I don't know.  I'm probably being OCD in my reply.

meh.

All of the tests contradicted each other for me.

You have completed the Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale. 

The LSRP measures two scales. 

Scores range from 1 (low) to 5 (high). 

Your score from primary psychopathy has been calculated as 1.7. Primary psychopathy is the affective aspects of psychopathy; a lack of empathy for other people and tolerance for antisocial orientations. 

Your score from secondary psychopathy has been calculated as 2.6. Secondary psychopathy is the antisocial aspects of psychopathy; rule breaking and a lack of effort towards socially rewarded behavior. 
 

Hmm the two test are conflicting in narcissism. 

Same. It's why I don't really self diagnose. I was only ever diagnosed with ADHD. It keeps being re-diagnosed over and over so it is consistent. I had one doctor who said I had borderline OCD and Dyslexia. I don't think I have dyslexia. 

I only self diagnosed myself with anxiety. I think these meds are helping me. I have less thoughts running through my head so less room to worry as much.

One thing I wonder whether it is a factor or not: histrionic traits.  I didn't notice if one test interpreted the actions of narcissistic disorder as some spillover for histrionic, while the other is about the internal beliefs or thoughts, etc.

I did wonder about that as well. There's a lot of over-lap between PDs, hence the ability to cluster similar types. Some things inherent to one PD of a cluster are also implied in the others. Both NPD and HPD are known for enjoyment of being the center of attention, while HPD and BPD are known for being very dramatic.

 Do you agree or disagree with any of your results? Comments on the reliability of self-test in general?
