Is promiscuity a luxury?

So postulates author Marian Adshade. Have you ever wondered in which countries people are the most promiscuous, or even if promiscuity varies at all?  The International Sexuality Description Project turned up a great deal of variety in promiscuity between nations.

Marina Adshade from BigThink asks: How Promiscuous are You? Find out by taking a simple self-assessment test, which the International Sexuality Description Project—a team of more than 100 scientists—has administered in 48 different countries.* The test will take less than a minute, and will measure what psychologists call your “sociosexuality"—or, what the author calls, promiscuity. My score?  About average.

Psychological Associates has a created great little online questionnaires that only takes a few minutes to help you size up the
behavior of the people you work with — your boss, peers, direct
reports, even your customers.  Best thing?  It is free to try out for yourself.

Quick. Simple. Useful – Give it a go.

Theses questionnaires are based on the Dimensional Model of Behavior, a scientifically-proven
means of simplifying and categorizing human behavior.  It was developed by Victor R. Buzzotta, Ph.D., and Robert E. Lefton, Ph.D., and
is based upon research at the University of California and at Harvard.  It is a four quadrant model that measure two similar but slightly different continuum from the Platinum Rule.

What makes it a little different from the other behavioral style assessments is that you get to assess how you think your customers are perceiving you by looking at how they interact with you.  Suggestions on how you should adapt are provided. Adapting your behaviour in an emotional intelligent manner is really what it is all about. The Corporate Platinum Rule Assessment through AssessmentsNow does this and more.  Platinum Rule actually seeks feedback for the groups of people that YOU are most interested in finding out about. That said, I like the aspect of this tool to look at customers as well as the traditional work relationships..
