How this test works
This challenge asks you to read intentions from movement. You watch 14 short, silent cartoons in which simple shapes move around and seem to chase, help or leave each other out. After each clip, pick the best of four descriptions. You can replay a clip, and there is no time limit for answering. Your score is the number of answers that match the original answer key. Animations of moving shapes have been used in psychology since 1944.
