Just what I thought. I think that's why I only got 88%. I kept wanting to look away. :D

I don't really get it but I just picked the opposite of what ever it said and got a 100.

i've done this before, it is basic psych 101.

It is because reading is automatic process, so to tell people to inhibit that is really hard, but if you've done it before, it gets easier.

Kinda like wearing something that inverts your sense of left and right, up and down. In the beginning, you mess up a lot, but after a while, you adjust and can actually function even if everything you see is backwards.

I got 100 on my first try, I almost messed up on the second last one.
