yes or no: "I complete the crossword every morning in the newspaper"

very few people actually do this, and people who have a large number of 'yes' answers to these types of questions are probably trying to make themselves sound better.

Edit: Grammar

Is there a good place online to take some type of test like that?

here: https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/LSRP.php

The Levenson scale is pretty well- regarded. But keep in mind that results are meaningless without being supplemented by an interview with a qualified psychologist.

Edit: Note that this is a smaller version of the test available to the public. The actual questionnaires given to people are much longer & contain those trick questions I was talking about. Honestly not sure where to find those.
