How do they define "Vicarious interpretation of feelings"? How can I be high in that and yet one of my lowest scores in "externally-oriented thinking"? What is the difference between these two factors?
Or, numerically, "vicarious" was 11 out of a 3-15 range for me, and "external" was 19 out of a range of 7-35.
Hi @lea-65
Where did you come across "Vicarious interpretation of feelings"? Which test?
Below your score on the test, is a detailed version where everything is put on a scale, including "Vicarious interpretation of feelings"
I think it means when you use other people’s emotional responses to give you understanding of your own.
I think a low score on the Qs related to externally orientated thinking suggests you are interested in your own feelings… and you may or may not use other people’s feelings to help you understand your own.
