Some psychologists believe you can tell a lot about someone by carrying out an ink blot test.
Formally called the Rorschach Inkblot Test, the psychological assessment asks you to interpret abstract patterns. Some believe it can reveal personality characteristics – but others are dubious about how accurate they are.
However, personality tests can be a bit of fun. And this particular one, which was posted onto Instagram, reveals if you’re likely to be “overlooked” or not.
According to the caption of the video, the fun game can tell you about your “personality traits, preferences, and styles”. It adds: “These assessments can provide insights into a person’s behaviour, motivations, and how they interact with the world and others.”
So why not give it a go? Look at the image below and say what you see. Don’t forget to leave us your thoughts in the comments below, too!
While some people see a shark in the snap, others see a foot. Apparently, if you spot the former first, you’re likely to be a “thoughtful and considerate individual”.
The Instagram page adds that these players tend to ‘wonder if they’ll ever meet someone as selfless as them’. And unfortunately, their ‘kindness is sometimes overlooked’ and ‘taken advantage of’.
It continued: “Your biggest weakness is your stubbornness. You can be resistant to accepting different viewpoints, and you sometimes impose your opinions on others.
“This tendency can lead to frustration, especially when you face the unfamiliar or the unknown. Despite these challenges, your positive attitude and determination make you highly successful in almost any field. You have natural leadership qualities but should be cautious of overworking yourself.”
However, on the other hand, seeing the foot suggests you have “vibrant, dynamic personality that lights up any room you walk into”.
The page elaborates: “Once you set your mind on a goal, nothing can stand in your way. However, you can be indifferent to many people and situations as only a few things truly capture your interest.
“Despite this, you maintain excellent relationships, and you have a remarkable ability to suppress negative feelings when dealing with people you dislike, allowing you to interact casually and professionally. This quality helps you get along with almost anyone, as long as you’re willing to make the effort.”
