The art you like says something about the kind of person you are. Take part in an experiment and find out more about yourself and art.

You will:

  • find out your personality type
  • see paintings from around the world
  • discover art you might be interested in
  • find out how art preference and personality may be linked.

This experiment was developed by UK psychologists to help them understand how personality and art preference interact. We collected over 100,000 results for their study.

We are no longer collecting data. However, you can still try the experiment for yourself and find out how your answers compare to other people's. You'll also find out more about what the scientists discovered.

We expect this will take about 15 minutes
