I'll just leave this here:
Reality assesment:
disagreeable to you?
3. Does a perspective on life which rejects magic, psychic powers, or ESP sound
disagreeable to you?
4. Does a perspective on life which rejects fate or determinism sound disagreeable to you?
Self-assesment:
makes self-control impossible?
2. Are the accomplishments of others more important than your own?
3. Is being alone undesireable and something to avoid?
4. Do the imperfections of yourself and the world outweigh the good qualities?
5. Do you feel threatened by criticism?
7. Are the accomplishments of others a threat to your ability to make accomplishments?
8. Is the well-being of others more important than your own?
Value assesment:
others?
2. Is going to school unmeaningful to you?
3. Is working at a job unmeaningful to you?
4. Is physical appearence a justifiable way to judge somebody's worth?
5. Do you agree that it doesn't matter if those you spend your recreational time with have
very different beliefs and values than you (e.g. moral, material, existential [religious or
atheistic], political, aesthetic...etc)?
6. Is money the root of all evil?
7. Do you think having the choice to spend the rest of your life sometime in either the
future (e.g. with advanced technology) or the past (e.g. the great civilizations of the past
like the Roman empire) would make your life more interesting, adventurous, and fullfilling?
8. Do you think it is fair that you owe your parent(s)/guardien(s) for raising you by
including their desires for your future into your own personal goals?
9. Do you think the natural environment should be respected and protected?
Is this some scientology crap, or just some random crap?
I made it by compiling a list of the irrational beliefs I've noticed that I have and the ones commonly held by others. They require yes or no answers.
The correct answers to them are:
[spoiler]no
If you said [spoiler]yes
then that may be an indication of some psychological issue due to improper reasoning.

...according to your beliefs. Note: reason != beliefs. Even though I agree with a good part of them, some others are just really not justified, for example, the last one requires a "no" seriously? Seriously, some of those are HEAVILY opinionated.
If you really believe you're right and there is no other justifiable answer, congratulations, you are a zealot and you have a "psychological issue due to improper reasoning".
You just assumed that they are not based on reason. I could explain the answers if you wanted to, but you don't ask.
Some of the questions there should make sense like "Are the accomplishments of others more important than your own?" If you said yes to that then that means you don't value yourself too highly. Realistically, your own life should be the highest value. Another example is the one about would you like to choose to live in the past or the future because you think it would make your life more adventurous. See, in reality, if you don't already take it upon yourself to make your life exciting then going to a different time period would matter. Thinking it does is a fantasy. It means that your psychology is about evading reality.
Sorry, I didn't read your thing too well. The last one is a no because I'm trying to identify if you think nature is more important that humanity. In otherwords, you value trees, plants, and animals more than you value human life and progress. Nature is not something that can be 'respected'. That doesn't make sense. It is not something that understands respect. This doesn't mean that nature shouldn't be valued. It can, but when given the choice between humanity or nature, humans ought to be chosen first.
Is this another retarded atheist/objectivist troll trying to force his idiotic views on others.
I can't possible force anything on anybody. What you do with your life is up to you.
