1. Imagine that your friend forgot about an important school project and asks you for help at the last minute. How would you react?

Select an answer:

I will offer him help, but only as much as I can manage without neglecting my own responsibilities. I will help him completely, even if I don't manage my own tasks because of it. I will advise him on how to prepare as quickly as possible, but he should resolve it on his own. I will tell him that he has to face the consequences of his forgetfulness and I won't get involved. I will let him make his own decision and I will respect his approach.

2. Your parents ask you to take care of something, but you are in the middle of an exciting online tournament. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will finish the game and take care of it right away; responsibility is important to me. I'll wait for the tournament to finish, and then I'll take a look at it. I would like to ask someone else to take care of it instead of me. I'll try to solve it all at once – play and complete the task, even if I might not do either properly. I'll say that I can't help right now, but I'll assist later if it's still relevant.

3. At school, you notice that someone secretly copied homework from a classmate. How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I will tell the teacher, cheating is not fair. I will talk to that classmate and explain to him that it is not right. I'll leave it as it is, it's not my business. If the teacher asked me, I would tell the truth, but I wouldn't announce anything on my own. I will encourage my classmate to prepare by himself next time, but I won’t judge him.

4. You received a job offer for a part-time position, but it’s something that doesn’t interest you. How will you decide?

Select an answer:

I will accept her because it is important to have experience and to be responsible. I will decline, I would rather wait for something that interests me more. I'll say to myself that I'll give it a try, but if I don't like it, I'll quit. I will find out if there might be another task within that job that would suit me better. I will take it as a challenge and look for something positive in it.

5. You find yourself in a situation where you could gain an advantage by breaking the rules, but no one would find out. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will act honestly because I would feel bad about myself. I will do it if it's something small and it won't hurt anyone. I will consider the risks, and if they are low, I would probably give it a try. I would rather ask someone I trust how I should proceed. It depends on the situation; sometimes it's right to be flexible.

6. A group of your friends decided to do something that doesn't seem right to you. How will you react?

Select an answer:

I will tell them what I think about it, and if they don't listen to me, I won't get involved. I will participate to avoid standing out, but I will not actively support their idea. I will try to convince them not to do it, but I won't force them. I will back down, even though I don't like it, because I don't want to lose my friends. I will leave and rather not associate with it.

7. The teacher accidentally assigned you a better grade than you deserved. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will inform the teacher and ask for a correction. I'll leave it as it is, after all, it was his mistake. If someone asks me, I will tell the truth, but I won't deal with it myself. I will say that life is not always fair, and I will accept it as luck. I will consider whether it is really worth dealing with it, and I will decide accordingly.

You have the option to decide where the class will go on a trip, but you know that not everyone will like your choice. How will you decide?

Select an answer:

I will choose what I think is best for the majority. I will vote and respect the outcome, even if I don't like it. I will choose what I want when I have the opportunity to decide. I will try to find a compromise between the various proposals. I will suggest several options and let others choose.

9. Your parents gave you a choice between two activities, but you don't really like either of them. How do you decide?

Select an answer:

I will choose the one that bothers me the least. I will try to negotiate a third option that would suit me better. I will postpone the decision and hope that it resolves itself. I'll let my parents choose for me. I will come up with a way to make one of the options more interesting.

10. You receive an offer to lead a team in a school project, but you know it will be a big responsibility. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I accept it because I want to try something new and learn how to lead a team. I decline because I do not feel ready for such great responsibility. I will accept it, but I will delegate tasks so that I am not under pressure. First, I will find out what the responsibilities will be, and only then will I decide. I will suggest someone else who would be more suitable for this.
