lol I took this test like 4 times in my life. Last time I got like a 310 but this time it dropped me to a 290, sigh my girl score went down :P curiously i just don't care anymore. once I took this test like once a week just so it would tell me I'm a ts and make me feel better XD. every time I've taken this test it's told me I was a class four transsexual lol.

Sara,

Like it told you something you didn't know.You are a TS,but you knew that in your heart of hearts all ready didn't you?The Cogiati is fun,but it is just that,fun.We know who we are,don't need a test

I have taken this test a couple times, once as i was starting therapy, my score then was 190, i just retook it was 220 COGIATI classification FOUR, PROBABLE TRANSSEXUAL.

Took the S.A.G.E. test recently my Raw Score was: 615, which indicates that overall you are Feminine. Says I'm a Male to Female Transsexual, either post-operative or in transition.

Also tool the Personal DNA Test, my Femininity was 78 out of 100, my Masculinity was 26 out of 100.

I been in transition almost a year now, and even though these tests are just for fun they seem pretty accurate.

have been born a girl.I am just doing something about it finally.

255 - COGIATI classification FOUR, PROBABLE TRANSSEXUAL

some of the questions on there were so... neautral in everyway that i find it hard to understand how that would affect a score. but either way, im not surprised by my result. if i had to classify myself, i would say that same. There are no complete certaintys in my life at the moment so to say that i WAS a transexual would be jumping the gun

good test :D

Remember, its not scientific. But it does seem to be very close to some professional Psychological tests Laura took years ago. Jennifer did a nice job. Besides the test was kind of fun. The test link is also on the Fun stuff page of my site.

The recommendations made after your results are received are excellent. She should have been a psychologist. Its interesting to note that test is still talked about as widely now as when it first came out.

My test results have been around 290 every time I have done this teat . Now I am working on the courage to go farther in my life.Brenda Lee

Your COGIATI result value is: 135 Which means that you fall within the following category:

COGIATI classification FOUR, PROBABLE TRANSSEXUAL

What this means is that the Combined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory has classified your internal gender identity to be essentially feminine, but with some masculine or androgynous traits. It is very possible that you are a candidate for a diagnosis of transsexualism. You show a strong degree of gender dysphoria. At the very least, further investigation should be undertaken. Your COGIATI score places you among the majority of those diagnosed as transsexuals, the 'late onset' tanssexual.

SUGGESTIONS FOR ACTION:

Your situation is potentially serious and indicative of a probable inborn gender conflict. It is definitely recommended that you pursue further action.

The suggestions for your circumstance are several.

1.

It is recommended that you seek help from a sympathetic counselor or professional about your gender issues. It is very possible that over time they will become increasingly difficult to cope with. Early determination of what you really need and want is vital. You need to determine if you truly are transsexual. Keep in mind, thought, that many alternatives exist other than complete sexual transformation. Partial transformation and many other way of existing are available. While you are very possibly a transsexual, COGIATI has determined that this is not absolutely certain. While time is an issue, being certain is more important. Proceed with investigation of your possible transsexuality or transgenderism, but with caution.

2.

Some actions may help you to define your needs more clearly. Experimenting with living full time as a woman, taking hormones for a short time under supervision, or taking testosterone suppressers to observe how you feel are all viable options. Keep in mind that while it is very likely that you might be a transsexual, it is not certain. Do not take severe or permanent actions without long thought and the help of counselors and professionals.

3.

Your gender issues are real, and should not be ignored. Neither should you rush into acting on them, however powerful they may feel. You do not fit the full criterion for the rarest classification, classic transsexuality, and so should be cautious, and open to possibilities. You may yet end up undergoing transition, and the path of the transsexual may well be your salvation. Be very careful, but do not ignore your issues.

4.

If you have not already, consider joining any of the thousands of groups devoted to gender expression of various kinds. There is literally a world of friends to discover who share your interests. There are also publications, vacations, and activities that would expand your gender expression.

I have taken this test a few times and I always got classification four.

It's true; in essence I am female but I am not transsexual. Transgender is the right label for me. =)

This is the third time I took the test. I graded out as -20. Classification 3, Androgyne. I would be a third sex in some cultures. Though equally comfortable as both genders, I prefer the feminine. I am a transgenderist.

I think I got a "probable transsexcual" score last time I took it, I can't really remember the exact number though. I thought that was kind of wierd though because there's no "probable" about it.

LOL I wanted to take that test then I realized it was for MtF's

I did take the S.A.G.E. test though:

Your Raw Score is: -365, which indicates that overall you are Androgynous

Your appearance is Androgynous

Your brain processes are mostly that of a Androgynous person.

You appear to socialize in a masculine manner.

You believe you have major conflicts about your gender identity.

You indicated your were born Female.

ANALYSIS:

Female to Male Transsexual, either post-operative or in transition

NOTES:

Your answers indicate you have altered your physical appearance to look like the opposite sex.

Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.

I took this test and a number of others about a year ago (and maybe a few years before that!), and most the results came out as I suspected. Of course, I'm also a good test taker, and I can see through a lot of the validation type questions - like when they ask you the same thing, 2 or 3 different ways in different parts. So a lot of my results depend on how I'm feeling. And how I think my different personas would respond. I usually start by being in my male mode, but then I quickly realize that and switch to my female mode. And yes, we are slightly different.

Back in High School we all had to take this Vocational Inventory test (ex. would you rather dance on a stage or rope cattle) and a friend of mine for each page of the test (about 20-30 questions per page) chose a different occupation to concentrate on. They made him re-take the test. Today he is a successful lawyer. I 'knew' what I was going to be, so it didn't matter what I really liked, I would opt for the one closest to what I was aiming for.

Anyway, they're nice fun tests, and maybe can give you something to think about. I just don't put too much stock in something this open and generic.

Interesting test.

I didn't understand where some of the questions were going, but some were obvious.

I got a 505.

But then I came out early, transitioned early, and have been very happy with my gender for a very long time.

I like to think that the result wouldn't matter to me, but it did somehow. The results suggested I see a gender therapist. I have never seen one, but I don't think I need to since I am decades post-op and very happy.

Dont know what stage the Cogati says I am but RL i am a fully out woman who just goes about her daily business and to me that is far more important than some test of dubious diagnostic value

I got a 305 on it which is type 4: probable transsexual. I have taken it before always with similar results.

think mine was 400 something.. I do know that my T score was lots lower at 380(that was pre spiro) :)

Well, just given this a go for the first time, and got 320 - Classification 4 Probable Transexual.

A bit of fun for ten minutes, even if not amazingly scientific.

Interesting test, and fairly well put together. Confirming questions, subtle differences in language and meaning, overall good stuff.

Not really sure what it means in the end though, although some of the questions I think were geared towards a more stereotypical girl. Like the walking in the woods one, or anything with an outdoor activity that didn't involve pretend. I knew many a cis girl that loved to climb trees, build forts, and play in the stream and mud. I dunno, we all take our own paths I suppose. ;)

I just did the test and got 365 "COGIATI classification FOUR, PROBABLE TRANSSEXUAL".

I have some opinions I'd like to share about the test and the result:

Over 15 pages of all-bold text is annoying and eye-tyring. I'm putting this all in bold just to illustrate the point, and it's just one or two lines.

The choices for some questions are not well-thought enough. Most obvious example, the one about parking: I do not drive, what I am supposed to answer there? Another example, the "Pick the choice that most closely represents the age at which your gender first became an issue or a concern to you." Wouldn't a text-field to type in a number be more exact? If my answer were "about age 6", should I select 5 or 7? At least a hint about whether to round up or down would have been useful.

The "Visualize the following entirely in your head" is, IMO, very badly worded. The thing starts at horitzontal position, then rotates 90º. If we repeat the same rotation three times, we get 90º + 3x90º = 360º = 1 full circle. So the thing ends horitzontal again. The choices give for granted that it ends up vertical (either of the edges is on top or on bottom). This, plus the vague "end over end" phrase, makes me assume it's taking three 180º rotations, rather than 90º each. Maybe it's just that I'm not a native English speaker, but I missed an option to answer "Do you know what are you asking?".

Another one: "It is grade school. The teacher gives you a gold star on your work for excellence. What is it for?" There were no "gold star" things on my school, but I could honestly mark any of the options. I always studied maths on my own from my brother's books (he's two years older!) and even helped him with his homework; I'm good enough with grammar and spelling (may make some mistakes on English, but I rarely miss something on my native languages); and I had won several school poetry contests. What I am supposed to pick here?

I could go on with many other questions. Now, about the results: it says that I'm probably transexual; and I guess the test is probably right. Furthermore, it says: "What this means is that the Combined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory

has classified your internal gender identity to be essentially feminine, but with some masculine or androgynous traits." Of course I have some masculine traits: I have always been expected to act as a male, and have been treated as such, for over two decades.

Another issue with the test: it seems to be taking math and geometry skills as something inherently masculine. In my case, these skills come from a higher than average IQ (I'm not trying to show off nor anything, just clearing things up). For what I have seen, higher IQs are much more common among women than among men. So I think this part of the test is biased and probably adds more noise than precission to the final result.

Finally, I must admit that the actions recommended are good advice. I think they are mostly obvious, but the idea of trying limited hormone treatment (either short-time or only the testosterone suppressers part) is something I had never thought about: I might mention the idea to my therapist on our next session.

In general, an entertaining distraction, with some design issues, which told me almost nothing new. But still fun anyway.

      I grew up with it, my mother's side were Germans.  I still like cabbage.  I make a sweet/sour dish with vinegar and brown sugar, add some bacon if you have it.  And in warmer weather, slaw.  I like that better if it's a few days old, and has worked off a little.

      Good Friday Morning    I will be spending a good portion of my day at church today.  I don’t know how any of my family would have been with me.  They all passed before I figured myself out.  I often think my mother and sister may have figured it out before I did but maybe it was just my depression that they saw.  I don’t know and never will.  My grandfather Young unconditionally loved me but he passed when I was 9.   Same with my wife’s parents, both gone before.  We’ve never had the greatest relationship with my wife’s brother but we do see them occasionally.  They words and actions aren’t always in sink when it comes to me.   Sour kraut or boil cabbage were never big even with my parents so that was something we were never expected to eat.  Nor was anything with mustard.  My mother hated mustard and it turns my stomach. My wife tried to sneak it into things early in our marriage but I could always tell.  She stopped after a while.   well I wave to go get ready to go to church.  I have a committee meeting at 10 and then we have a Good Friday Service at noon.   Willow

      Good morning everyone,   @KymmieLI hope you're misreading your bosses communications. As you say keep plugging a long. Don't give them signs that you're slow quitting, just to collect unemployment.   I have a few things to do business wise, and will be driving to the St. Louis, MO area for two family gatherings.   Have a great day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning everyone, TGIFF   It seems like I am the one keeping or shop from being the best. According to the boss. I don't know if my days are numbered or not. But anymore I am waiting for the axe to fall. Time will tell.   I keep plugging a long.   Kymmie

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.
