Personality quizzes can be fun, but are not diagnostic tool

Personality quizzes not a diganostic tool

Online personality quizzes can be a fun way to learn more about yourself. They ask questions such as "Are you an introvert or extrovert?" "Are you a leader or a follower?" They can be a good place to get information on your psychological health. While personality quizzes are typically more for personal use or entertainment, they can help us navigate and understand the landscape of our reactions and intentions.

While personality quizzes are typically more for personal use or entertainment, they can help us navigate and understand the landscape of our reactions and intentions.

It can also be a fun way to connect with family and friends and see what traits you may have in common.

Dr. Susan Albers, a psychologist for Cleveland Clinic, said personality quizzes are not like clinical assessments, where a doctor would make a mental health diagnosis.

“We tend to look at the results under what is known as a confirmation bias. We tend to look for information that confirms the results of these assessments. So, this may or may not be an accurate description of you. Consider it to be a starting point for investigating a little bit deeper into yourself, your characteristics, and who you are,” she said.

Dr. Albers said personality quizzes can be useful, when it comes to your relationships and career, but it’s important to remember they’re just a class to gather insight and shouldn’t be taken as fact.
