These are my results. I'll update the entry as I complete the surveys.)

Understanding: Empathy vs systems.

Interesting becase they say that mild aspegers and autism (of which Dyspraxia is a related condition on the autistic spectrum) has a big influence suppressing the empathic response. The study is related to whether or not conservative and liberal moral outlooks can be characterised as empathic or systemic models. Into this trend I seem to fit the expected characteristic of the suppressed empath.

Reacting to an uplifting stimulus.
Results are according to gender. I wish they'd used colours more distinct than brown green and orange. A protanope like me finds that awfully confusing to look at. The good news is I'm powerfully uplifted by feelings of admiration.
Green = Me
Men = Brown
Women = Orange
