I took the survey twice.

The first was on my phone whilst in a taxi going to a meeting. Couldn't copy/paste the response but it did describe me as a centrist somewhat sympathetic towards religion and who would be called right wing.

Then I just took it again and answered all the questions as I remembered and got the following:

Radicalism 58.25
Socialism 6.25
Tenderness 37.5

These scores indicate that you are a tough-minded moderate; this is the political profile one might associate with a jaded materialist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as libertarian.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an idealist with very few strong opinions.

This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting.

Hmph. Must have changed one or two answers to become a libertarian.

Many of the questions were loaded and could be interpreted in different ways and others were really two questions combined into one (to use as an example I'm in favour of increased education spending but not social welfare spending.)

If you read the footnote at the bottom it's clear that the survey is based on socio-economic political thinking and outlook more suited for the mid 20th century than today's world, as evidenced by the eugenics questions and reference to Nazism, as well as lumping Jews and Muslims together. Many people would provide different answers if that latter question was only about Muslims or Jews.

It's no surprising that most of us ended up centrist-Libertarian because that's probably the result of applying the modern 21st mindset, which is much more centrist and individualist, to questions meant for a time when people were more deeply divided amongst political ideologies - right wing versus left wing, capitalists versus socialists etc.

Socialism 18.75
Tenderness 34.375

These scores indicate that you are a tough-minded moderate conservative; this is the political profile one might associate with a drill sergeant. It appears that you are moderate towards religion, and have a balanced attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as right-wing.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an idealist with many strong opinions.

Probably about right. She read's the Daily Fail.

Unlike many other political tests found on the Internet which base themselves on untested (and usually ideologically motivated) ideas, this inventory is adapted from Hans Eysenck's own political inventory which was developed after extensive empirical investigations in the 20th Century.
