Assessment criteria for the results of the study

Hi all,
First off, great job with the study! I thoroughly enjoyed taking part in it. It was challenging but fascinating. I recently got your assessment of my critical thinking abilities based on the study I took.
One thing I found missing in the report was the criteria you adopted to assess my responses to the study. Could you please also share what you considered to be the right answers along with the answers I chose? That way, I can understand in what ways I have erred. Without that, just percentile scores either leave you feeling smug or inferior. It's more of a means to promote the mindset of comparing oneself with others, rather than one of identifying one's shortcomings and overcoming them. Knowing in what way one is lacking goes a long way in enabling one to adopt a mindset of competing with oneself.
Kindly share the assessment criteria you adopted in evaluating my answers to the test.
Thanks!

hi all,
I second the question above. Is there an answer somewhere that could be posted for all to see ?
And would also add : given the percentile score, it would help to have an idea of the demography of participants - how many in total, and in each category ? do you have a classification by age / formal education ?
As more people take the test, the base for comparison would change and if i were to work on the shortcomings identified through this first report, and take the test again next year to measure my progress, the results might not be comparable at all...
Just curious to understand what you think the best use for this test is, other than (as said above) to feel smug or inferior to a unknown mass...
thanks !

Hi all,

Yet to receive a response to this question. What gives? I find it weird that I scored a 100 percentile in reasoning and pretty high percentiles in all the other categories, but a meager 19 percentile in evaluation.
Since critical thinking is the name of the game we're playing, I'd like to ask you a question I would like to be addressed thoroughly and objectively-

Is it possible that it's you people who are weak at evaluating arguments? No offence. It's through debate and discussion that we grow. I'm sure we are all capable of it.
