Q. Does a friendship quiz really work?
A. That depends upon what results you are seeking from a friendship quiz. If you are seeking to learn how to become a better friend, then the real results are found more in understanding the lessons that are hidden in the question rather than trying to pick the right answer. In fact, if the friendship quiz is well designed, the answer to each question will be very apparent without even having to guess.
There are certain well-defined traits that make a person a good friend, and there are other “variable” issues that get thrown into the mix.
Some of the well-defined traits include loyalty, honesty, the ability to listen, and the ability to understand your friend’s feelings. A friendship quiz should give you a way to measure whether or not you have those traits.
These kinds of well-defined traits are easy to work into a friendship quiz. What’s not so easy are the “variable” traits that I mentioned. For example, knowing when to “butt out” of your friend’s business is a trait that no friendship quiz can measure. Likewise, knowing when to say “No” to a friend’s request is another vague concept that no friendship quiz is likely to be able to quantify.
