Where Do You Sit:
A/B Perspectives Across Key Issues

The Quiz

In the quiz that follows, you’ll encounter a series of statements across the five themes. Each set of options reflects a spectrum of views that tend to lean more toward either an A perspective or a B perspective.
‍
For each question, select the option that feels closest to your own view or instinct.

Identity & Belonging

This category looks at how you see yourself in terms of community, culture, and place – from being rooted in a local/national identity to feeling you belong more broadly to a global community.

Where do you feel a stronger sense of belonging?

Option 1: I feel deeply connected to a specific community or my country – my roots and local traditions are central to who I am, and that’s where I truly belong.

Option 2: I have a strong tie to my home community and country, but I also appreciate being part of a larger world. I value my roots and enjoy connecting with different cultures.

Option 3: I can feel at home almost anywhere. While I respect where I come from, I tend to see myself more as a human being among others globally, not defined solely by one nation or culture.

Option 4: I consider myself a citizen of the world first and foremost. I find belonging through diverse connections and universal values, rather than through any single local identity.

What best reflects your view on national traditions and cultural change?

Option 1: Our national traditions and heritage are very important to preserve – they give us a sense of identity and continuity, so we should uphold them as much as possible.

Option 2: I value our traditions and social norms, but I’m also open to change when it benefits society. We can honor the past while adapting to new ideas for the future.

Option 3: Traditions have their place, but I’m inclined to embrace new cultural ideas and changes. It’s important for society to evolve and include influences from different times and groups.

Option 4: Strictly maintaining old customs can sometimes hold us back. I prefer a society that grows and adapts – even if it means replacing or rethinking traditions that no longer serve us.

Which statement best describes your attitude toward settling in one place versus moving?

Option 1: I have a strong attachment to my hometown or region. I can’t imagine permanently uprooting from the place (or country) I call home, because it’s a core part of my identity and comfort.

Option 2: I’m deeply rooted in my community and always plan to return to it, though I don’t mind traveling or living elsewhere for short periods. My home base and its way of life will always anchor me.

Option 3: I enjoy experiencing life in different places and I’m comfortable adapting to new environments. I do have affection for where I grew up, but I don’t feel tied down to just one spot or culture.

Option 4: I love exploring new places and could imagine living in many countries over my lifetime. I don’t feel the need to stay in one community to have a sense of belonging – I thrive on change and new surroundings.

How do you define yourself when it comes to community versus individuality?

Option 1: I mostly define myself by the community and culture I come from. Being part of a group with shared traditions and values gives me purpose and identity more than my own individual traits do.

Option 2: I feel both connected to my community and unique as an individual. I take pride in my cultural background, but I also have personal values that might differ from tradition at times.

Option 3: I define myself more by my personal beliefs and experiences than by any one community. I do have cultural roots, but I think individual identity is fluid and can’t be fully defined by where I come from.

Option 4: I’m very independent in defining who I am. I don’t feel I have to conform to my community’s identity or traditions – I prefer to shape my own identity and belong on my own terms, connecting with others freely.
