Try and decide whether 'yes' or 'no' is how you usually feel and then circle the 'yes' or the 'no'. If you find it quite impossible to decide, then circle the '?'. However don't use the question-mark unless you feel you have to. Work quickly and don't spend too much time on any question, we want your first reaction. Don't leave any questions out. There are no right or wrong answers - this isn't a test of intelligence, it is simply to give us an idea of how you feel and behave.
