99% sure it was LEAST needed

I chose politeness

[stonecold]

yeah, it was definitely LEAST...

[Slumdawg]

OMG was it LEAST needed???

Well quite a few are saying what she did have. SO I'm kinda confused. I thought I read it properly. But I could have misread it.

It definitely said least required on my test.

Did everyone say she was sadistic?
I said she was cause she only got really angry at them when a customer was watching - getting pleasure from humiliating them.

YAY! Does anyone get the tidiness factor? Cos it was mentioned so many times I would have thought it would definitely not be needed by her. Have yet to hear one person choose that :S :S

And yes I think I put something else originally then changed it to sadistic a few minutes later.

cmon guys isnt sadistic a little extreme...good ol'Ed warned us about extremes..

[stonecold]

I get where you guys are coming from.  Ambiguity in the question.

Least needs because she doesn't value the quality, or least needs because it already occurs.

Of course, they won't change budge because that would screw up there top secret marking scheme.

I don't think it was too extreme. She was an extreme lady.

[Slumdawg]

How could politeness be the least needed? Obviously she was rude and it was like the only one that referred to manners so wouldn't she have DEFINITELY needed that? So you had to choose which option she most clearly didn't need.

Just looking for an explanation, there must be some big reason why heaps of people chose it.

does anyone remember the answers to the questions to do with the dad and his son talking about how his wife hasn't been coming home lately?

[stonecold]

Yeah, because she was impolite, she wouldn't expect it in return or need it...

OHHHHHH. I get it now. Thanks for clearing it up! Just up to luck now I guess.

I couldn't answer that set of questions properly; I was laughing at the name "McCurry's" the whole time.

[stonecold]

-innocent
-is affecting both his marriage and relationship with dad < probably wrong (was running out of time.  it was because his wife was cheating or not spending time at home...

well you need 50%+1 of the cohort to choose it for it too be right, i would say the majority would have chosen politeness, remember many people aren't going to stop and look for greater reasoning because of time constraints, the way i see it majority immediately recognizes lady as a biatch and puts down politeness as least need then bails onto other questions lol

The questions are tested beforehand.  The answers are predetermined.

Either when the question was previously tested in a random sample of all ages, a majority was found, which became the answer in the UMAT, or there was a split between two answers, and an 'expert' got to choose the answer.
