The test for measuring EIQ is here: http://www.queendom.com/tests/access_page/index.htm?idRegTest=3037

Make sure you have some time to spare, as the test usually takes around 45 minutes.

A shorter version (albeit not as comprehensive): http://cl1.psychtests.com/take_test.php?idRegTest=2998

This test will only take around 10 minutes.

I did the long test, but I'm confused in relation to the poll. In my results it has a bar that goes to 100 and I got 75/100 I think...

Ah.. The awkward moment when your poll doesn't correlate with your test :/ I was under the impression it did a bell curve, similarly to an IQ test. Obviously not.

Fixing it now.

I got 73 (on the long test). I consider myself very good at understanding how I feel, and I can fare well understanding how other people feel, but I'm fairly bad at dealing with emotional problems, be them mine or not. I think my actual score would be quite lower.

I got 67 (=the long test) but I honestly feel that it should be much higher.. might have been that some questions were extremely difficult to answer as they lacked more valid options.

For me it is quite interesting and very much needed that EQ-tests are becoming more and more advanced and that emotional intelligence "weighs up" or compliment the standard IQ-test of measuring what is considered to be intelligence which has been THE dominant way to measure intelligence.. which really, IMO, is a very narrow view on the subject of intelligence in actuality.

I can't be bothered to take the test, but I did want to comment that your title queries a correlation between emotional intelligence and asexuality. All you might be able to prove is that asexuals who took the test had an average of a high score, low score, middle score, whatever. Without comparative data from other orientations, there is no way of proving if the scores of this test have any relation to asexuality.

I scored a 64 on the long test and a 53 on the short test as linked to above.

I think that's very interesting, given that I am a diagnosed aspie.

I got 61 on the longer one and I got 20 on the shorter one xDD *is a psychiatrist's worst nightmare*

64 in long test. It was hard, english is not my mother tongue so I probably did some extra mistakes. :lol: But I think I don´t have problems with understanding other people´s emotions and my emotions. I have problems with controling my emotions.

I'm embarrassed and a little irritated to report that my score was a 93. I think I took the long test, because that was no ten minutes.

I got 56 on the long one, but 44 on the short.

I got 65 which is surprising to me, I thought it would be lower. I'm really no good at emotional stuff, I prefer to stick with logic and reasoning and give little focus to emotions.

Why would you possibly be embarrassed? That's amazing and wonderful! You should be proud of your skills.

Restraint isn't much fun. It's damnably slow and still only marginally effective. Spontaneity is probably more useful.

Maybe some people get high scores naturally. I read articles and books to understand those topics because it's the only way I will.

That "if jealousy had a taste" question had me stumped for a half-hour. What the heck is jealousy? And why do half the questions repeat as if I were not the subject? How could I figure them out without considering the situation as if it were me...?

I probably took the test wrong somehow.

40 on the short test, 72 on the long test. (Though I already voted before I took the long test, as I didn't initially think I was going to bother taking the long test, but I did anyway).

80 on the short, 78 on the long.

I agree with others that some of the questions seem a little odd... The situational questions have to do more with interpreting social norms in my opinion and might be a better test for identifying something on the autism spectrum. I guess I feel like it would be hard to calculate anything together as Emotional Intelligence and that there should be more than a one dimensional number output.

70 on the long test. But I think these tests are somewhat influenced by 1.how you're feeling at the time, and 2. how you perceive yourself as opposed to how you actually behave. I had to think hard on those situational questions to remember times I'd actually been in such a situation, to know if I really act the way I believe is appropriate. You know, it's one thing to know what you should do, and another thing to do it. For the ones I had no similar experience of, I had to guess.

I took the long test (got a 48) and found that a majority of my answers depended upon the specific situation that I was in, or who I was interacting with. I don't feel like I can pin down most of my answers "in general." Just my two cents.

"If you found out that the company you worked for was engaging in clearly unethical practices (e.g. dumping waste in rivers, animal cruelty), how would you react?"

I don't think I'd really give a damn if they were dumping waste into rivers, but animal abuse is completely different. My answer differs drastically based on which situation we're talking about.

I got 59 on the long test. I did pretty terribly on the emotions/faces part. Couldn't figure out which ones to pick. Woe. I don't like looking at people in the face, honestly. I pick up nonverbal cues from people's voices.

In the link CBC.Radio.Girl gave, I got: Self-report Component

Subscale IQ score = 57

Subscale percentile = 0.26

Well, then :|

55 (long test), 47 (short test).

But, as a few people have mentioned, some of the questions were weird: since when does jealousy have a taste or rage a texture?

Really, that seems more like testing a knowledge of using metaphorical language, which has little to do with emotional intelligence.

I took the short test and got a 22. Yikes. I tend to be extremely anxious/perfectionistic and I think that really affected my results.
