ASSAY 05 – INSTRUMENT WING

The Familiarity Assay

Twelve items about your person – partner, best friend, whoever you'd call first. For each, report honestly whether you know the answer. The instrument measures attention, not affection; they correlate, but the Lab lets the data say so.

SELF-REPORT INSTRUMENT. IT CAN BE GAMED, BUT THEN YOU'D ONLY BE LYING TO A LABORATORY ABOUT HOW WELL YOU KNOW SOMEONE YOU LOVE, WHICH IS ITS OWN FINDING.

For each item, report honestly whether you could answer it about your person right now.
