Levanon and Losso began sorting people into emotional decision-making 'types' which affects the way in which they sort information. Levanon became 'anti-Darwinist' in deciding that not everybody is motivated strictly by survival concerns. He identified three basic motivating factors and says that they have different levels in different people.

"Why do babies cry? Because they are in trouble, in danger and need help surviving. Or because they are uncomfortable and want a state of familiarity and comfort. Or because they are bored and want attention and entertainment."

These are also what drives adults he believes - and studies have shown through brain scan that the brain emits different hormones for different states - adrenaline when we are afraid and threatened, Acetylcholine when we are in a routine comfort state, and dopamine when we are interested and intrigued by something.

Our differing limbic systems, he theorizes, divide us in to three basic types - survivalists, homeostatists, and growth-oriented - what they call S, H, and G values. We are all combinations of the three, but he believes that in everybody, one type dominates.

I feel that I'm primarily a G, secondarily an H, and lastly an S.

Although my wife and I have been together 23 years and are happily child-free I got this result:

95,720 descendants
- you're more genetically fit than 45% of the current population -
95,720.
Not bad. You're no Mongol warlord, but to have that many copies of your
genetic code running around 800 years from now is pretty impressive.


You're at the lower end of the scoring spectrum, but, honestly, when
you consider that the cheaters, swindlers, and football players of this
world are statistically best-equipped to create children, scoring low
is something to be proud of. As you'll see below, some of your lines
will die out, but nonetheless your genetic material will thrive here on
earth for a long time to come.


A close friend of mine created a program to generate family
trees for this test. It's based on your unique answers. We accounted
for sterility, birth rates, death rates, disease, drug abuse,
nitwitism, and accidents and came up with this, for you:







My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 0% on fitnessfactor

Does this mean that like the biblical matriarch Sarah my wife Shoshana will conceive in old age?

You scored 34 variable 1!

Ok, you've finally finished, and nothing has come out from under your
desk and devoured you, your lucky, I read once that a combination of
ciggarette butts, spilled pop, printer ink, and cat urine can actually
form a creature that puts the critter in the movie Alien to shame.
anyway, the scoring for this is easy.. the higher the percentage, the
more disgustingly filty your house is... how can you live that way?
Holy shit, I mean aren't you afraid for your own welfare? I bet this is
how ebola got started. Have no fear though, I'm not judging you, I
spent 6 years in the army, and I've had a job inspecting homes, and
I've slept outside on the dirty ground and it was cleaner then some
houses I've been in, so I'm a pretty good judge. Oh and if you scored
low, congrates! I probably haven't hit a catagory where your filthy, or
your related to my father and you wax your hot water heater. If you
scored high though... remember all those names at the beginning of the
test?.. you could end up being rich and hire people to clean for you!..
of course you probably won't.. but thats good too.. we must keep the
Center for Disease Control employed right? Thanks for taking my test! I
will be adding more to it as time goes by, so if you have any examples
you've seen of really filthy homes, e-mail me!
