I did the quiz and now I'm really annoyed because they didn't tell their participants what the scores are SCORED OUT OF.

112 WHAT? What does that mean? Is that good, or bad? How do these numbers compare to one another?

Music psychometrics my ass.

And as far as I can tell if you don't like country it'll just tell you you hate music.

They say it's scored out of 100 pay.

I'm uh, I'm not kidding.

  • Your score for Upbeat & Conventional was 100. Music from this cluster is found in the genres country, gospel, and bluegrass.
  • Your score for Soothing & Wistful was 104. Music from this cluster is found in the genres alternative, indie rock and roll, and folk.
  • Your score for Lyrical & Beating was 87. Music from this cluster is found in the genres rap and hip-hop.
  • Your score for Energetic & Rhythmic was 99. Music from this cluster is found in the genres EDM and techno.
  • Your score for Intense & Rebellious was 97. Music from this cluster is found in the genres rock-and-roll, punk, and metal.
I rushed through the survey so that probably affected the scores for each category but in general it does show what genres I like more than others. I like alternative/indie and Folk and I don't care too much for metal or rap so the results seem about right. I didn't think the any of the samples were that great. So I was surprised to see the results make any sense. If metal and Punk were separate categories and it was real Punk (and not poseur Punk) there would definitely be a difference in the score results in favor of Punk over metal.
