Online Intelligence Tests Are Bogus

June 17, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat17 Comments

Once again, the internet has given humans an unfair advantage!

We cats rule the internet, but we have to work way harder to do it than we should! That’s because the internet gives humans a big advantage over us! I have proof: all those intelligence quizzes. Recently I found one called “Multiple Intelligences,” where the results are divided into different categories. A couple of blogger humans I know, Rebecca and Karen, had written about their results. That made my human curious, so she decided to take the test too. Here is her result:

Ha! And she thought she was smarter than this!

As you can see, there are a number of areas in which she is lacking. She is not even that smart about other humans! And the fact that she is not too great with Visual/ Spatial is not surprising either, considering that she’s always bumping into something. So I thought I would show her up by taking the test myself, but look at the bogus result I got!

This is totally false and a lie.

According to this I am even less people smart than my human! And I supposedly have even less spatial sense! Not true! Okay, I will confess that I don’t bother with numbers and I’m not all that musical, but I am WAY more body smart than my human. I mean, you should see her working out to one of her dumb exercise DVDs. It’s embarrassing, and in no way does it compare to my fine moth-catching skills. And I am nature personified. My human is about as unnatural as they come. Linguistics? Let’s not even get into that. Which one of us has a book coming out in August? Huh? Stupid quiz.

So you can see these quizzes are totally skewed so humans will score better than cats. I hope you are as shocked by these results as I am.

    I’ve seen tests like this before, and neither you or your human have anything to worry about. Everybody scores badly on parts of the test and good on other parts. These actually test more for personality than intelligence. So if you look at it like that you can find out a lot about your inner self. And of course a cat would not do so well on a test for humans. You were cheated.

    Clearly. This was a great study, Sparkle. Those tests are definitely full of cat poop. Hmph!

    The intrapersonal part is probably true about cats because they do know what they want about themselves.

    Mom has taken several of these tests. She always scores high on musical, even though she was a former math teacher and professor.

    We are totally shocked at the results! They obviously weren’t designed to recognize a cat’s superior intelligence so they are totally bogus.

    Hey, congratulations on your book! I’m now curious about this test, so I think I may head over and see how I do. Well, I’d better go, Yum Yum has finally discovered that she can jump onto the kitchen counters and I’m constantly having to get her off.
    Once again, great news on the book, I’ll have to grab your sales page and post it on my site 🙂

    Completely messed up, we agree. But hoomins are such jealous creatures… they know we are the superior species, some of them just can’t handle the truth.

    We’re not even going to let our Mom take that test. We don’t want her to feel bad when she has a low score!!

    Very interesting results. That is too funny. We would be too embarrassed to take that test. But we still know that cats rule. It didn’t have those results on that test as to who is in charge. And you know we are, so we must have some smarts here.
    Have a great day.

    Obviously those tests are designed by humans in order to make them feel better about their relative lack of intelligence as compared to cats. We think it’s completely unfair!

    Miss Sparkle, you should make up your own tests. We bet it’d be WAY better than the silly test you took.
