            Actually, I thing that is deliberate as there's an inquiry about technical problems. When doing psychological tests, they rarely tell you what they're really up to at any time (before or after).

                        My guess is that we're all scoring lower than our actual age as we all spend most of our days on a computer, causing selection bias. I half expected this, it'd be interesting to see how accurate the stats are for the normals.

                              It guessed 30 for me as well and I'm an arthritic 49 year old.

                                  OK, so it thought I was 30 - I'm in my forties, and did the test at the bottom end of a bottle of wine (Pepperjack Shiraz 2011, wish I could still get some 2009). Maybe tomorrow, I'll try it sober and see if I can get into the twenties. The interesting thing is how much more conscious I was of how the mouse was moving to where I needed it to be. I was watching the path it took, whereas normally I would be unaware of that, and just looking for when the mouse was where I needed it to be. Also, they seemed to assume a standard resolution, so it didn't scale well to 2560x1600...

                                          Guessed my age 12 years younger than I actually am. Are my reflexes that good, or was it the fact that I've spent the last five years in the USA? :rolleyes:
