Psychological Test

This is an interesting psychological test.

Move down by one line at a time and read the text only once.



Count the number of letter F in the next text:



FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.





How many is there?


What's the result?
How many did you found? 3?





Wrong.

There's 6 of them and this is no joke.


Read the text again.

The explanation follows below.



The brains cannot process the word OF.

Unbelievable, huh?

Someone who can see 6 Fs the first time is a genius.

3 is normal.


Weird, huh?



P.S. This was sent to me by e-mail and I translated that from Slovenian (except the green text), so I hope I managed to do it right.

I got 3 :(

I would've fallen for this one except i've already seen this.

Another one I know is like:

Because of the great wave the
the elephant had to move its family (I just made this up so its stupid)

When people read it fast










They dont see the two "the"

I got 6!!!

i'm a genius? Then God help stoopid people! :lol:

ROLF :D

I got six first time and tis the first time I have been accused of being a genius.

Makes me question the validity of some of those Psychology tests.

Then again they are better than the Psych evaluations......based on State sponsored forensic Psychs-for-hire and their legal beagles I went from being a Plaintiff/Appellant who, as a self represented (sometime Solicitor) went from being a person who was not only "grossly, profoundly, irrevocably psychiatrically disturbed...[backdated...18 years]....." ....and an Appellant who by her conduct of her case "knew little about the law as an uninformed self represented Solicitor" to a "VERY CLEVER SOLICITOR" .....which the Court should make a special note of, in response to my attack on eminent Counsel&#39;s integrity in advancing facts before a Court of law which he knew to be untrue. This transformation apparently occurred overnight&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; This should be reported in the annals of Psychiatric journals on a global scale and give us all hope.

"We had no idea" of her psychological/psychiatric state so said Counsel (about 5) when the State sought to force a settlement upon me, and didn&#39;t wish to question my &#39;understanding&#39; or soundess of mind to accept what was in effect a unilateral agreement.

what was the question again? Sorry, my spleen starts to enlarge as one person in this forum put it, and I feel the necessity to vent on kazaa boards for the remainder of my days of freedom.......

My tort of assault/battery against the State of Queensland representing the Police was thus &#39;forever stayed&#39; after a protracted hearing, and I am now facing assault charges against Police in a cruel twist of irony, for which I am likely to spend the rest of my natural life in a maximum security correctional facility for the dangerous (non-insane) offenders up North in the tropics. No doubt my access to Focault will be rationed.

......http://www.imahosting.com/sigs/nutto.jpg

Nothing worse than excessive pressure in the spleenal area.

One has to vent.

For preference not on law enforcement officers however.

This tends to result in the menu becoming table d&#39; hote rather than the preferred a la carté.

yep i got 3 aswell&#33;&#33;&#33;

does anyone have anymore of those type of things?

re: "anyone got any more of those thingys?"

or whatever....lol...in the vein of "am I a validation seeking genius" or just some more fun tests.

Some of the psychology tests I have heard of are rather cruel. I don&#39;t know whether they are true or not.

therez onli 3... but i got 2 eyes... 3 each = 6?

crap... i&#39;m a dumbass :o

This is hardly scientific &#33;
There are variables as linguistic background ,education and even
physiological problems like dyslexia can be of influence.

btw :I got 5 but don&#39;t ask me why. :(

So was that the test was it? Fell right into it??

Is it to see whether the person goes back and tests whether they were right the first time, or maybe HOW MANY TIMES they do???

Is it some kind of thinly veiled test for the obsessive compulsive??

Or is it another form of conspiracy to test vanity???

Or is it another test designed to make people prone to rumination ruminate more about what the test is all about??

BTW I don&#39;t believe in drawing firm inferences from such tests, and agree it isn&#39;t science at all.
Apart from the variety of physiological factors, over and above dyslexia, did those of you that got it right happen to mention how long you took to perform the test :rolleyes:

Chill.

It&#39;s not important. Just a bit of fun.

Nobody really thinks it&#39;s some sort of measure of intellectual capacity.

&#39;ere &#39;ere

I am chilled

I just didn&#39;t want to make any concessions against interest as to how many hours I took to get the &#39;right&#39; answer, or how many times I went back and checked... ;)

That I got -5- doesn&#39;t mean I am close to being a genius . :">

I am a sloppy reader and use intuition. :P

Six. Child&#39;s play when one expects a trick from the outset.

Actually, it does not mean your are "dumb" if you didn&#39;t spot the "the&#39;s" and "of&#39;s"
our brains are designed to work fast, thats Why you don&#39;t spot them&#33;
We sort out the "garbage" and move on&#33; ;)
If one was to "proof read" one would spot such nonsense, but I&#39;m buzzed so what do I know? :P

An apple

the doctor away

i saw that one fallenknight. I posted something like it b4 although
it wasnt nearly as tricky.

That is basically what the whole "test" says. Nothing to do with psychology or how smart you are.

OMFG&#33; i only saw 3&#33; WOW&#33; im depressed now, even tho its normal... :teehee:

So those who got it right are more likely to have brains that are akin to receptacles for waste management...LOL :D

I mean not that I care or anything :unsure:

Bring on some more....

I would imagine someone who doesn&#39;t speak or read in English is at an advantage. They don&#39;t use all those shortcuts to process the written word. They see a string of letters and process them as individuals, rather than unconciously grouping them as experienced readers of English do.

So when I become a master of English, I won&#39;t see any "f"s, but I will understand the meaning of the lines.

So if you got 6 "f"s, you just might be a redneck. (An unintentional double entendre-right Mr. Foxworthy)

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I got 8 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

If only I could count past 4

Are you sure? Color isn&#39;t everything. Here&#39;s a checklist for you:

You use your fishing license as a form of identification.

You&#39;ve ever lost a loved one to kudzu.

Your coat-of-arms features kudzu.

You burn your front yard rather than mow it.

You go to family reunions to meet girls.

Your secret family recipe is illegal.

Your momma has "Ammo" on her Christmas list.

Going to the bathroom in the middle of the night involves putting on shoes and a coat and grabbing a flashlight.

You come back from the dump with more than you took.

You&#39;ve been kicked out of the zoo for heckling the monkeys.

You&#39;ve been involved in a custody fight over a hunting dog.

You know how many bales of hay your car will hold.

You have a rag for a gas cap.

Your house doesn&#39;t have curtains but your truck does.

You can spit without opening your mouth. (classsic)

You consider your license plate personalized because your father made it.

You sit on your roof at Christmas time hoping to fill your deer quota.

You have a complete set of salad bowls and they all say Cool Whip on the side.

The biggest city you&#39;ve ever been to is Wal-Mart.

Your working TV sits on top of your non-working TV.

You thought the Unibomber was a wrestler.

Your neighbors think you&#39;re a detective because a cop always brings you home.

A tornado hits your neighborhood and does a &#036;100,000 worth of improvement.

You&#39;ve used a toilet brush as a back scratcher.

You&#39;ve asked the preacher "How&#39;s it hangin&#39;?"

You missed 5th grade graduation because you had jury duty.

Somebody tells you that you&#39;ve got something in your teeth and you take them out to see what it is.

The directions to your house includes the phrase "turn off the paved road".

Your dog and wallet are both on a chain.

Your dad walks you to school because you&#39;re both in the same grade.You mow the lawn and you find a car

You divorce, remarry and DO NOT have to change your surname

Or, you remarry three times and still have the same in-laws


Believe it or not I actually shortened this, alot. I hadn&#39;t looked at these Jeff Foxworthy jokes in years.



For you, WeeMouse, since you are planning on getting a job:

If you take a can of beer to a job interview,.........you might be a redneck.

I can safely say I&#39;m not a redneck...although I&#39;m annoying my mum so much just now that ammo just may well be appearing on her christmas list this year&#33;
