Which part of your psyche controls you?

1. Your younger sibling asks you to help with their algebra homework, but you would rather watch TV. How do you respond?

You turn off the TV and help them; their learning is more important than that third consecutive episode of Friends.

You ignore their request and continue watching TV.

You tell them to wait until your done with this episode and then you help them.

2. Oh no! You've just rear-ended someone and it was definitely your fault. How do you respond?

You apologize profusely and admit fault in the accident to the police. You also promise to pay for the damage you've called.

You drive away; they can live with the damage and you don't want your insurance premiums to go up.

You exchange insurance information with the other driver but don't admit fault, you don't want that to be used against you in court.

3. Your parents offer to pay for your prom expenses, but you know money has been tight lately and they can't really afford it. You've been working and you have enough money to cover the bill yourself. How do you respond?

You tell them that you can pay for the expenses yourself but thank them for the proposal.

You take the money. Hey, they offered it!

You let them pay for some of the expenses but pitch in so they don't overspend.

4. Your friend Mike just pocketed a pack of gum at the convenience store without paying. How do you respond?

You tell the manager of the store what your friend has done and let him handle the situation, knowing that your friend will likely face punishment.

You let him steal it; convenience stores overcharge anyway.

You quietly suggest to him to put it back so he doesn't risk getting in trouble.

5. You need a ride to the airport and you are planning on taking a bus, but you know your friend Dave is free that night and could probably drive you. You don't want to deal with the bus system, but you would be burdening Dave by asking him. How to you respond?

You take the bus as to avoid taking time out of Dave's night.

You ask Dave to drive you.

You ask Dave to drive you but offer some monetary compensation or agree to help him in a similar situation another time.

6. You've had a long week and all you want to do is go home and nap. Your friend Sarah calls you crying; looks like she and her on-and-off boyfriend have broken up again. She wants you to come over and listen to her problems. How do you respond?

You go to comfort her with ice cream in hand, that nap can wait.

You lie to her to get out of it and go nap.

You let her know that you're exhausted but you'll be over tomorrow to talk it over.

7. Your friend Amanda has informed you that two students are planning on fighting in the parking lot during lunch. You don't know either of the students involved. How do you respond?

You report what your friend has told you to the principal immeadiately

You tell other people about the fight and get your friends to come egg them on.

You keep yourself out of it and do not attend the fight.

8. Uh oh... the dog peed on the rug. You were supposed to be watching him but apparently, you didn't take him outside frequently enough. The smell absolutely repulses you and feel as though you might throw up if you try to clean it. How do you respond?

You clean it up because he was your responsibility.

You leave it. Whoever steps in it first is going to have to clean it up.

You incentivize your sibling to clean it up by offering to do one of their chores.

9. You've gotten into a fight with your mom the day before her birthday and she takes away your car. You have yet to buy her a present. The rest of your family expects you to give her something, but you really don't feel like giving her a gift. How do you respond?

You get her something she'll like to please the rest of your family.

You don't get her a present.

You get her a present with very little heart, like a $15 King Soopers gift card.

10. You find $20 on the ground in the hallway. The money doesn't have an obvious owner. How do you respond?

You leave it on the ground; it's not yours to take.

You take it without asking anyone if it's theirs.

You first ask if anyone near you has dropped it and if no one responds, you pocket it.
