This test measures your ability to read people’s emotions through the expression in their eyes. I got 26; merely average! [Mind in the Eyes](http://glennrowe.net/BaronCohen/Faces/EyesTest.aspx) Supposedly if you inhale oxytocin prior to taking the test, you score better!

Omg.. thanks for posting this, Carrie. Now I want to try testing the RMET (Reading the Mind with the Eye Test) with all sorts of stimuli! RMET results after an entire pot of coffee RMET results after a mile jog RMET results after visiting the DMV RMET results after a straight blast to the face of 4x [Instant Honesty](https://a314.com/product/instant-honesty/) RMET results after watching Dora the Explorer RMET results while holding a full tank of pee in your bladder … Where did you find this cool blog? You’re always SO DARN GOOD at finding things like this on the net.(Remember the Myers Briggs post from months ago?) Keep posting! ---

My score was 31 out of 36. When I went over the ones I missed I noticed something kinda cool. On three of them I was torn between two answers, the right answer and then the wrong one I finally picked. That was fun. ---

My score was 20, and it doesn’t suprise me one bit: I am usually clueless about body language/facial expressions, unless it’s the more obvious. ---

I scored 26. Again as others have mentioned usually the ones I got wrong were ones where I was torn. There is one that does worry me though. I couldn’t quite tell the difference between flirtatious or hostile, I knew it was one of the two :S ---

1. About 1/3 of them I had no conscious idea but found that doing the Lance Mason/Style trick of asking how do I feel helped clarify. interestingly even though I was unsure of these I got them all right - it was the ones where I went with a recognition rather than tuning in to felt sense where I made mistakes. ---

So [Instant Honesty](https://a314.com/product/instant-honesty/) has oxytocin in it?? Otherwise, where are you inhaling the oxytocin? I used to use Liquid Trust, but something weird started happening… when I used it my left lung felt sore almost so I stopped using it. There’s something in that just doesn’t fly too well with my body chemistry. It’s not worth the dangers. I never used Instant Honesty even though I bought it and returned it a while back. Probably going to get some again sometime though. ---

IH doesn’t have oxytocin in it - it’s primarily beta androstenol. Liquid Trust is the only [pheromone product](https://a314.com/shop/) I’m aware of that has oxytocin - but supposedly oxytocin has to be directly inhaled to be effective … like squirted up your nose or something! don’t try this at home … ---

#25 is supposed to be “interested”??? yeah freakin right… she looks so “panicked” that u’d think the mafia put a hit on her life or something…either that or she’s mildly constipated.. 🙄 very fun exercise tho, gonna get my gf to try it. i only scored 26, i think she should be able to do better… ---

I got 32! I think I am quite good at reading people´s expressions. The ones I got wrong were the ones I thought about too long, I just did it quickly as if they were first impressions! 2007 most impressive screensaversmyscreensavers.info ---

Interesting…I got a score of 25, but out of the 11 that I got wrong, only 2 of them were female. Indeed, during the test, I had a much harder time reading the male faces as opposed to the female faces. Hmm.🙄 ---
