Imagine you come across an article with surprising information that contradicts what you have previously considered to be true. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I will start looking for additional sources to verify what is true. I will tell my friends about it and ask for their opinion. If it sounds convincing, I will accept it as a new truth. I'll think about it, but I'll leave it as it is because I don't have enough time to explore everything anyway. I feel uncertainty, but I believe that the truth will reveal itself over time.

You are in a discussion with someone who has an entirely opposite opinion than yours. How do you proceed?

Select an answer:

I will try to understand his arguments and see if they are at least partially correct. I'm trying to convince him of my point of view because I believe I am right. I'll let him speak, but inside I think he's wrong. I'll quickly conclude the topic to avoid conflict. I will use his opinions to better formulate my own.

A viral video with controversial content appears on social media. How will you react?

Select an answer:

First, I will verify where it comes from and whether it is true. If I like it, I share it so that others know about it too. I will challenge it and write a critical comment. I don't need to deal with it, I'm ignoring it. I will ask someone I trust what they think about it.

When studying a new concept, you notice that the source you are referencing is not entirely reliable. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will start looking for other sources that may be more trustworthy. If the information seems logical to me, I will not question it. I'll put it aside and maybe I'll come back to it later. I will try to compare it with what I already know. I'm discussing this with someone who has experience in this field.

A teacher or parent tells you something that seems wrong or outdated. How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I will ask why he thinks that and I try to understand his perspective. I'll leave it as it is; there's no point in arguing with him anyway. I will share my opinion and I will try to support it with facts. I think to myself, but I don't comment on it aloud. I will try to look at it from different angles and maybe I'll find out more about it.

On the internet, you come across an article with the headline "Shocking Revelation! No One Told You This!" What will you do?

Select an answer:

First, I will check the source to see if it is trustworthy. I click on the article because I am interested in what it's about. I do not succumb to sensations, I ignore it. I will look at the comments to see what others think about it. I'll save it and come back to it later when I have more time.

You are discussing a topic with someone in which you are unsure. How do you behave?

Select an answer:

I openly admit that I am unclear about it, and I will try to gather more information. I will try to speak confidently so that I don't come across as insecure. I prefer to stay silent and listen in order to avoid mistakes. I will ask the other person about their sources so that I know if they can be trusted. I will change the topic to something I feel more confident about.

In school, you have been assigned a project where you must gather information on your own. What will be your approach?

Select an answer:

I will search for multiple sources and compare them to have the most accurate information possible. I will use the first sources I find so that I can get it done quickly. I will consult someone who knows about it so that I don't have to look for everything myself. I will try to approach it intuitively, even though I may not have everything backed up. I'll agree with my classmates to divide the information and then exchange it.

You have to create a presentation on a topic you are not very familiar with. How will you approach it?

Select an answer:

I will thoroughly study the topic and prepare my notes. I will try to do it in a way that looks good, even though I'm not completely familiar with it. I will find someone to help me with that. I will focus on the key points and infer the rest during the presentation. I will include a lot of pictures and brief information in the presentation so that it won't be too difficult.

How do you approach information that is complicated or difficult to understand?

Select an answer:

I'm trying to break them down into smaller parts and understand them gradually. If it seems too challenging to me, I will leave it as it is. I'm looking for simpler explanations or videos that can clarify this for me. I will ask someone who already understands it to explain it to me. I will try to understand it with my own logic, even though I may not be sure if it is correct.
