I apparently have a lower sense of what is wrong than most people, and I am apparently less easily dicusted than most.
It says that I get more angry about governments big corporations and bankers ripping people off than I do about individuals committing crimes etc.
I am also apparently more forgiving of people who fail to report wrongdoings by members of their own family or group.

All this apparently makes me less part of the "human superorganism".  Am I supposed to feel ashamed about this?  Because I don't.

I gave up on helping people the moment the website told me I need to sign up :P

I scored less than average for everything, most notably punishment. The test thinks that I'm emotionally disengaged and unlikely to object to wrongdoing.

I find that a bit annoying, because there wasn't a "say or do something about it", only an option to punish. So it thinks I don't care when I actually care with a passionate intensity!

Ah well... I guess this is what life is like when you're not part of the human superorganism.

I can't help but feel that there are better places online to have a human super orgasm

I scored lower than average for everything, most of all in my sense of anger, but least of all in my desire to punish.
The punish questions were weird, so I just assumed it meant that if I was in a position of power or authority where it would be my job, and answered them like that.

I scored medium (i.e. similar to everyone else) for disgust in boundary offences and distribution offences, and medium for avoidance in boundary issues- I had chosen not avoid at all for most of the answers.

I was similar to most here in being less than average on everything.

Apparently my low anger and desire to punish actually show that I have no strong moral views and do not care whether justice is done, rather than, say, patience and a desire to help people?

Overall, the description given at the end is someone I do not recognise or share much in common with and I feel that the conclusions drawn in the survey are so skewed in the direction they want that it is useless.

"Your high desire to avoid is your most prominent moral dimension. This is the area in which you differed most from the average person in our pilot study.

This suggests that you are likely to try to avoid people who go against your view of right and wrong. You may be more concerned than others about the possible consequences of interacting with moral ‘wrongdoers’.

By exploring the rest of your feedback, you’ll discover how this dimension of morality compares with your other results."

Not concerned. Just don't see why I would hang out with a c*nt

Your sense of wrongness is lower than average

You tended to rate the scenarios in the test as less ‘wrong’ than the average person in our sample study.

Your score suggests that you are less sensitive than average to actions that go against your personal view of what is right, and that you are therefore probably more tolerant of moral wrongs.

Different factors such as religious belief and personal wealth can influence our attitudes to the action and behaviour of others.

The Test Your Morality experiment is exploring the ‘Human Superorganism Theory’ of morality. This theory states that human society behaves like a single, huge organism. This organism has functions like reproduction, memory and waste removal that have parallels in individual organisms and even individual cells.

In other words, your personal morality may differ from that of other people because you fulfil a different role to them within the superorganism.

If the theory is correct, you are less likely to be one of the people who helps the superorganism deal with threats to its wellbeing by policing the ‘bad’ behaviour of others.

Your sense of anger is higher than average

You tended to rate the scenarios in the test as more likely to make you angry than the average person in our sample study.

Your score suggests that you often feel anger when someone goes against your personal view of what is right. This means you are more likely to react in a confrontational manner towards people who do not share your values.

Anger is thought to have evolved as a response to threats from predators. In a social context, anger is common where harm or injury was intentional rather than accidental, and may result in a desire to punish the perpetrator, either physically or by other methods.

Some psychologists think that ‘moral anger’ evolved to encourage retribution against individuals who did not support the wider community and attempted to damage society for their own personal gain.

Your sense of disgust is higher than average

You tended to rate the scenarios in the test as more ‘disgusting’ than the average person in our sample study.

Disgust relates to your feeling of revulsion against a person who commits a moral wrong. The word ‘disgust’ can also relate to something you find physically repellent.

Your score suggests that you experience a strong emotional response to issues of right and wrong. You may actually feel physically sickened by the immoral actions of other people.

Interestingly, the concept of physical disgust may play a similar role to moral disgust. Some psychologists believe that disgust evolved as a mechanism to help us avoid disease and parasites. Moral disgust may act in a similar way by causing us to avoid people who we perceive as causing society harm.


Your desire to avoid is higher than average

We also looked at your desire to avoid individuals who do things that you don’t agree with. You tended to be more likely to want to ‘avoid’ than the average person in our sample study.

The desire to avoid is thought to be a consequence of being disgusted by someone’s behaviour. Like disgust, avoidance is associated by some psychologists with perceived threats from infection and parasites.

Your score suggests that when you find the actions of others morally disgusting, you are more likely to have concerns about interacting with those involved. You may be less tolerant than others in terms of your desire to avoid.

Theories suggest that avoidance plays an important role in helping the human superorganism adapt to different kinds of threat, particularly those associated with ‘social parasites’, or people who try to cheat on their social obligations.


Your desire to punish is higher than average

Finally, we looked at your desire to punish individuals who do things that you don’t agree with. You tended to be more likely to want to ‘punish’ than the average person in our sample study.

Your desire to punish indicates how inclined you are to engage in active retribution against an individual who is doing something you perceive as ‘wrong’. This may be a result of the amount of anger you feel towards them.

Your score suggests that no matter how strongly you may react to moral wrongs, you generally feel a desire to see moral ‘justice’ done. You may be more inclined than others to challenge moral wrongdoers.

The Human Superorganism Theory states that actively punishing those who do not fulfil their social obligations is one means of regulating social conduct and thus increasing social cohesion.


Your personal moral response to each of the scenarios may differ from that of other people because you fulfil a different role to them within the 'human superorganism'. Find out more about this theory in the next section 'Are you part of the human superorganism?'.

I am really angry, disgusted and favour punishment. But to be fair I only really chose those extremes when politicians, thieves and benefits cheats (which are one and the same) were mentioned. Also I'd quite happily kill a rapist.

The whole test was unfair, if you took all the political crap out of the test the results would be very different
