Civil Service Personality Practice Test

Do you find you perspire more than others?

1. I perspire a lot during stress

2. I tend to perspire somewhat more than others

3. I rarely sweat at all

4. I only perspire in extreme heat

The correct answer is: I tend to perspire somewhat more than others

Choosing the option that indicates you tend to perspire somewhat more than others suggests a moderate and observable level of perspiration compared to the general population. This choice reflects an awareness of your body’s response to various stimuli, indicating that you may experience slightly higher levels of sweat production during everyday situations, which could be tied to factors such as stress, environmental conditions, or physical activity. The other options represent a range of perspiration experiences but do not capture the moderate observation as effectively. For instance, stating that you perspire a lot during stress focuses on specific scenarios rather than an overall tendency. Similarly, the choices reflecting rare sweating or only perspiring in extreme heat indicate a much lower sensitivity to perspiration, contrasting with the choice that acknowledges a more consistent, albeit not overwhelming, tendency to perspire more frequently. Thus, selecting the option that suggests a moderate level of perspiration aligns with a balanced self-assessment of your physiological response compared to others.
