I scored a 31, but it’s really meaningless, because for many of the questions, in my mind, the answer was “neither of the above,” but that wasn’t an option. Of course, one knew right out of the box that it was a stupid test, because it assumes that people can be put on a one-dimensional scale of “liberal/conservative.” I’d like to know how Glenn answered differently from me to get a lower score.

I agree with him, in that I don’t consider myself anything on that scale, and certainly not a “moderate.” There’s a cretin over at sci.space.policy who, whenever I inform him that I’m neither a Republican or Democrat, or Conservative or “Liberal,” invariably says, “then you’re a moderate?”

No. As Glenn says, I’m an extremist, but an eclectic one.

Volokh has more. Note the commenter who has analyzed the Javascript, and found liberal bias:

You start out as fully liberal, and whenever you give the conservative response, it gives you a certain number of points. Therefore, not answering a question is equivalent to giving the liberal answer. All responses give you one point except the first, which gives you two. If a liberal would check a checkbox, its value is ignored, so even if you don’t check it, it doesn’t affect your score.

So, if I’d done what I wanted to do in many cases, and left the question blank, because it was so mindless, I’d have probably scored as a “liberal.” Note all the idiot stereotypes and false choices implied by the questions. As many noted, if I were teaching a political science (now there’s an oxymoron) class, I’d flunk whoever came up with this thing.
