Take the Brain Trap →What this archetype looks like
You scored in the reflective band. The CRT specifically rewards the habit of suppressing an intuitive first answer long enough to check it — and you did that on most items. This is linked in the research to lower susceptibility to scams, misinformation, and gambler's-fallacy reasoning.
Strengths
- Resistance to obvious-seeming traps
- Good numeric judgement
- Willingness to slow down
Watch-outs
- May over-analyse simple everyday calls
- Slower when speed actually matters
What to do with this
- Use your reflective edge on big decisions; give small ones a shorter leash
- Watch for "analysis as avoidance" on emotional choices
- Teach the bat-and-ball trap to a friend — it sharpens both of you
