About this test

A 16-item self-report quiz that maps you to one of four petty archetypes — Zen, Mildly Petty, Strategic Petty or Grand Champion — based on how you respond to slights. Four items per archetype on a 5-point Likert scale. The point isn't a moral verdict — it's a brave self-honest moment about how much score-keeping you actually do.

Methodology

16 self-report items (4 per archetype) on a 5-point Likert scale. The four patterns synthesise common score-keeping behaviour. Pop-psychology framing, not a clinical instrument.

Possible archetypes

Zen · Allergic to grudges: You forgot the slight before they finished delivering it. Allergic to grudges.
Mild · Reads messages twice: You noticed who didn't like the photo. You're holding onto it. We see it.
Strategic · Sniper-mode petty: You play the long game and the score keeps itself. Receipts filed, alphabetized.
Champion · Olympic-tier petty: You've held a grudge longer than most people hold jobs. Gold medal energy.
