Ryan Gosling Pop-Psych Tests

Criticisms and reevaluations of psychological tests keep psychological assessment scientifically rigorous. In contrast, the pop-psych tests frequently found in magazines and on the Internet usually have not been evaluated for either validity or reliability. These questionnaires often have inviting headlines such as “What Breed of Dog Do You Most Resemble?” or “What’s Your Love Profile?” but they are merely lists of questions that someone thought sounded good. Though we must admit, coming up with questions for Buzzfeed quizzes like “Are You Actually a Hipster?” and “Which Ryan Gosling Character Is Your Soulmate?” does sound like a pretty fun job.
