    About these numbers

    Figures on this page aggregate published research, standardized assessment norms, and large-scale survey results; where formal research is unavailable (such as rice purity averages), we rely on widely reported informal polls and label them as such. All values are population-level estimates, not guarantees about any individual — and the tests on this site are for entertainment and self-reflection, not clinical assessment.
