This quiz seemed a little silly. I agree with whoever said some of the questions were kinda creepy, and additionally, some of the questions had very little to do with morality, but about proper manners in a social situation. You're not going to deduce a lot about someone's moral principles with questions like that.
Whether a person considers certain manners to be a matter of morality or just an arbitrary preference is a big part of what the test is trying to measure.
Yeah, I get that, but you're not going to get an accurate measurement here, because the test isn't very clear about what you're answering. For example, in a "manners" question, perhaps I think the social more is arbitrary, in the sense that it's not like natural law or anything. But that being said, perhaps I still consider the behavior "not OK," and wouldn't act in such a way, because you can be the biggest moral relativist in the world, but if you fall outside the boundaries of certain acceptable manners, people are gonna think you're weird or have Asperger's, whether you like it not.
Nuance like that is not going to be picked up by this test. While the test, on the first page, does say you're supposed to answer something based on whether you think it's "morally okay" (whatever that means) without further explanation or details, what most people will do is just answer based on their immediate instinctual reaction of what they would do in the hypothetical situation. So it's rather unscientific and calls into question their rather dubious claim that the test was "made with the aid of professionals."
Of course, I have no problem with such quizzes and they're fun to take and I like doing them. But I think I can also acknowledge that they're kinda silly and belong in the same category as the weekly horoscope.
