Rice Purity Test

The Rice Purity Test is a checklist-style activity about life experiences. It includes everyday social and relationship experiences alongside more personal topics. Read each item in its own terms, and treat the activity as reflection rather than a challenge to collect experiences.

The quiz and basic information are free. This version contains 100 questions. Set aside time to read the items, think about your own experience, and choose the closest available response.

A checklist does not measure your worth

This version contains 100 yes-or-no items. The word “purity” is part of the quiz's familiar name; it is not a judgement of goodness, maturity, desirability, or character. People have different opportunities, interests, values, and boundaries.

The list can prompt memories or discussion, but having more or fewer listed experiences is not a goal. It is especially unhelpful to use somebody else's responses to pressure them, embarrass them, or demand private details.

What this can look like in everyday life

One item may ask about a familiar experience such as going on a date. Two people who answer differently may simply have had different opportunities or preferences. Neither answer explains the quality of their relationships.

When a group compares experiences, a lighthearted activity can become uncomfortable if people are expected to explain every answer. You can decide what you want to discuss and keep personal information to yourself.

How to approach the questions

  • Read the actual experience described rather than making assumptions from the quiz's name.
  • Use the yes-or-no choices consistently and avoid changing an answer to impress a group.
  • Do not treat the checklist as advice to try a risky or unwanted activity.
  • If the personal topics make the activity uncomfortable, you can choose another quiz instead.

Keep the discussion respectful

If you use the quiz as a conversation starter, agree that nobody has to explain personal responses. A better question than “Why have you not done that?” is “What kinds of experiences matter to you?” Allow different answers without turning them into a hierarchy.

Mind Indicator's checklist and accompanying guidance are presented as an entertainment activity. The count of experiences is not a scientific measure of virtue, maturity, or health, and there is no target number of experiences to achieve.

Common questions

Is one outcome better than another?

No. A checklist of experiences is not a ranking of people or an instruction about what to do next.

Do I have to share my answers?

No. Decide for yourself whether the activity is private or part of a conversation. Respect the same choice when other people participate.

What is available after finishing?

The quiz and basic information are free. If you would like to explore the written interpretation further, an expanded report is available as an optional paid addition.
