I think that's the main reason for putting the quiz on the web. If this
is an
actual test that was used, it is horribly unscientific. On the other
hand, I
wonder if it really was a test. Note that there's no information as to
who was
given this test, when, and what the results were. The whole thing could
be an
urban legend. At any rate, I was amused by it but didn't think of it as
any
more than a fun test and, possibly, an interesting look at American
society in
the 50s.
