I can’t see shit
Well that got me totally wrong. I picked the guy on crutches because he clearly needs the help. The old lady is not falling down, plus she has a cane to help find her way around. The nurse at the desk can pick up her own stuff. And I avoid babies like the plague. Once the injured guy was okay, I’d have pointed out the crying kid to the lady at the desk, and only gone on to the blind lady if she appeared to need something.
Exactly the same, priorities are in play !
You were suppose to pick WITHOUT thinking.
Same. I don’t even interact with people.
Same. I don’t think this would tell us a lot of our personalities. I also chose the guy because he clearly needs the most help than the rest.
Well, it does say without thinking. These types of things are usually wrong anyway, especially if you have a certain expectation going into it, but still, it’s a point. Your first instinct is probably going to be different than if you were to think about things more rationally, like you did. My first instinct was the baby, I didn’t even really notice the other ones, but once I did, the baby didn’t seem as important, considering babies cry all the time..
It said pick without thinking… That means whatever comes first. You totally analyzed first.
My first instinct was the guy with crutches, but I also looked at the picture more closely and came to the same conclusion. I don’t really feel like a natural leader tho lol
Exactly. Honestly, if you’re crisis trained, that is who you would need to approach first, as they’re the most vulnerable person. If you go by cultural standards, people would choose the baby or the elderly lady.
Weren’t u supposed to pick without thinking like first look then answer with impulse
I agree
The baby is the most helpless in this situation
But not the one that needs immediate help.
He might be hungry but won’t die… doesn’t seem in pain but in discomfort
The most logic/Useful sequence is:
A , C, D , B
I do interact with people, I love kids and I’m a very polite person in general… but these
“true personality” quizzes are not accurate at all
Letter C
It wasn’t accurate for me. I chose the guy with the cast because he looked like he needed the most immediate help. The lady at the counter is capable of picking up after herself, the blind woman doesn’t appear to be having trouble navigating. I’ve known a few blind people and they generally don’t need or want help from strangers. Like someone else already said, I’d point out the baby to the woman behind the desk because I don’t have any way of finding their parents but she does, like through an intercom for example.
Okay so the old woman is more than likely on route to step on the baby, so she needs guided to a place where she can sit and wait, then the baby needs picked up and carried. The dude in crutches is in pain but he’s already been seen to so there’s no rush, and the nurse has only dropped some things which is not really a health risk.
Defo help the old woman as she poses a risk to herself and the baby, and then see that the child is taken care of.
Letter B.
The nurse.
Because in that way she could help me in a assisting the other three who really need help.
I’d choose the baby in a heartbeat
“Sensitive and Empathetic”
D’aww it’s true
Too close to what I am, I’d always help the person failing over. All the others are in need of help but you need to prioritise.
you like to* plan ahead. looks like someone should have planned on an editor
C
The little baby is all alone and would need help the most imo.
How the hell do I get to the next question
But if you consider that the baby is right in the path of the elderly woman, and that if the lady were to fall on the child, it would be damaging most, I’d think, to the child. The child automatically, also, because that’s when we are in our most helpless state. So I picked C.
My logic was that she would probably hear the child. I don’t know, I didn’t think the baby or old lady was in any immediate danger
Am I the only one choosing the nurse here? The instruction was to choose without thinking.
Yep I chose the nurse. Without thinking I tend to gravitate towards people not freaking out. With thinking about it it’s her job so if you help her you help everyone.
Pretty damn accurate
Totally true. I choose letter C and I’ve been hurt more than once.
I said I would help the old person, because the baby can wait the young guy with the crutches is young enough to get by on his own until I can get to him.
The old person appears to be blind, in need of someone to help her keep her balance, if she falls she can easily break a hip,.
When your old breaking a hip can lead to death quickly lack of movement will end her life.
I think the disabled guy needs more help,so I selected A.
The Nurse, because she is probably taking care of all of them, and no one there is really capable of helping her. Uh duh, stop being ism’s. I – Self – Me. Everyone in today’s society is a self absorbed, narcissistic victim. Grow up!
I picked the Nurse because knowing Hospital Protocol she would know how to handle the situation by calling for STAT back up and in the interim handling the most vulnerable person first.
I picked the nurse since it’s kinda her main job in my mind to actually know how to help all of their other people. I’m not messing with someone else’s baby, unless I know their caretaker, or it’s an actually serious situation. I probably dont know the layout of this building and would just lead the old lady to the nurse anyway. The injured man would be my second choice sense he could be in a serious situation, but again, the nurse is going to know what to do more than I would, such as how to support him to avoid more injures and have access to the doctors and other nurses to help him . Also, the description of my answer is slightly off compared to my own catalogue of self, as I’m fairly highly pessimistic, but other than that is moderately accurate.
B
I chose the baby because when it stops crying everything will be a bit more calmer
My thoughts exactly. Went for the crying baby first because there is not much more stressful than the sound of a crying baby. Plus I’m a trained childcare professional, not a trained medical professional, so I’d be able to help more there, than with the person with the broken leg.
Picked on instinct and chose the baby. Got me completely correctly: I get told I take things too personally all the time and need to be stronger. But my strength lies in my empathy and being soft to others – so I don’t stop. Someone has to care and be the calmness to the storm when everything is falling apart.
If the person who is supposed help others doesn’t get help first, then the others will not be helped by the person who is there to help them! Rather simple, the nurse.
Got me. You’re supposed to decide without thinking!
Hum, guys. You forgot option E. No one?
I automatically helped the elderly lady. Although she carries a cane, old people are very fragile and unsteady on their feet. A fall could prove deadly. Their bones don’t set easily at their advance age and any stay in a hospital puts them at serious risk.
I could be sensitive, but I am definitely not empathetic. I only chose C, because I hate the noise of babies crying. I only picked him up to shut him up so I don’t have to hear him anymore. If that baby was not there I would have picked the guy with crutches, because I could use a boyfriend and what better way to get one then to help a guy up off the ground while he is hurt…
I’m sorry guys if this sounds insensitive, but hey what can I say I am a Slytherin of course I think about forwarding myself in this cold dark hell we call home.
My first reaction was to make sure the baby was safe since there didn’t appear to be any parents or caregivers nearby and it seemed to be in distress. However, I did think about it (gasp) for a second and realized I would pick A because he/she seemed to be the only one who was about to get hurt. Over-thinking/analyzing things is a major part of my personality so I think it’s extremely valid for me to have done so in this situation. However the results for choosing person A are completely off-base. I’m more of a side-kick/2nd in command type person and an INFP with social anxiety, it would have to be a very special set of circumstances to see me taking the lead on anything. (Although I do like to plan ahead and I don’t like fuss.)
Lol yep that’s me to a t. 😊
The pick “without thinking” part is retarded. We might as well just cover our eyes and pick them.
The crutches have fallen but the patient is in a distressed position. This means act quickly as they likely cannot speak to you, but will need help to prevent further injury. The child is in a hospital waiting room, but crying. This means they are responding to pain in a normal way. While they are not well, they are in not need of emergency care. You want to be worried if a child seems lethargic and isn’t crying, yet is awaiting treatment. The woman with a visual impairment in a cane has not indicated she needs help. Please do not rush to help someone old or disabled unless they indicate they need care or they are in clear distress.
As for the nurse, it’s simply books/paperwork. While it will take time to organize, this is not an emergency.
There is no time to think, just act. Please be aware of your surroundings and don’t let your prejudices cloud your judgement when it comes to administering help. This is a poor personality quiz and should be better used to talk about how to assess a situation.
I pick she will help with rest problems
Impressive how accurate these are from a question or two!!
I wonder if you could link the scientific source for the test. I believe it is base on scientific work and I would like to know more about it.
Thank you for your time.
I chose the guy in the cast because I usually see those types in the hospital before I see a nurse or doctor. I’m usually wondering ” What’s wrong with this person and how soon will they get out of here.” The result was LEADER…
