Each option adds its declared points to a portrait. The highest total leads; ties show every leading portrait in the authored order. No result is drawn at random. Points belong only to this quiz, not a psychological scale or population ranking.
Every question, full portrait, example, and small experiment is free. Answers are evaluated in your browser, never sent to a server or put in the URL. Tab-session saving is optional, expires after 24 hours, and is not reused after a quiz-version change. It clears on completion, exit-and-clear, or retake.
