A small psychological experiment. Answers to this simple question would be much appreciated!?

Question

Here is the situation. I am going to list details on a man, but only about his personality. After you read the description, I want you to answer this description with a physical description. Try to picture the man physically as I describe his personality traits. When you have a clear picture in your mind, answer with the following details you picture: The man's height, weight, race, hair color, and eye color. Here is the description: This man is 19 years old. He graduated high school in the top fifty percent of his class, with a 3.5 GPA. He has played violin since age 11. The only style he plays on the violin is classical and romantic. He held the highest seat in the orchestra, the first chair. Ever since he was 17, he has held the same job, being a manager at a fast-food restaurant. He makes $7.50 an hour, and works full time. He is in college now, and is studying as a journalism major, music minor. He plays guitar and piano also. He listens to classic rock, mainly Queen. Describe.

Answer 1

There is no answer to this question because you did not describe this man's personality traits i.e., caring, kind, dedicated, etc.. you gave facts of his life. These facts say something about his socioeconomic status but not his personality. There is no way to physically describe this person. That is a matter of genetics which does not necessarily effect personality or socioeconomic status. Your facts suggest that the person is white, but I am a black middle age woman who likes rock music, played the oboe in grammer school, made the Dean's list in college and now directs the children's choir at church. Go figure?

Answer 2

(In responce to ROCKINGTHEBOAT(Above), I know what the question asker is trying to do, its just a test to see what the majority of people see, or would like to see... *its psycology duh* so he just wants you to say what you imagine when that comes up, like an ink blot test. Its not a racial thing... -_- why do people always think its a racial thing??? Your not supposed to be actually guessing exactly what the person looks like... its a survey... what do people think when stuff like this comes together)

:::The Man's height:::
I would say he is about 5'11

:::The Mans Weight:::
150-160lb's a little more or a little less

:::The Man's Race:::
He would either be Asian or
Caucasian

:::The Man‘s Hair Color:::
He would have to be dark haired, dark brown or black

:::The Man‘s Eye Color:::
I would say green eyes, brown, or hazel

In my mind theres a possibility that he'd wear glasses, small fragile ones that are hard to see on him, short hair, wear loose button down shirts or polo shirts, be kind of quiet, with even facial features, not much facial hair if any...

(Please let me know the results, i'm very interested, sounds extremely facinating, thanks!!! let me know : [e-mail])

Answer 3

Height = 5'8", Weight = 140 lbs., Race = Oriental, Hair = Black, Eyes = Brown

Answer 4

Height: 5'9" give or take an inch
Weight: Hard to guess, but he's thin. "Skinny" almost, but not particularly muscular.
Race: Asian
Hair Color: Black and short

Other details I imagined: wears glasses, very into semi-casual clothing--clothes that are comfortable but not sloppy, very neat overall in appearance.

You've given a lot of background details, but nothing of his personality. Anyway, I envision someone who is not Caucasian, on the thin side, between 5'8" and 5'10", black hair and brown eyes.

Answer 9

As I am reading, I picture a colored male, either black or of eastern descent. About 5'8", 160 lbs. Black or dark brown hair and brown eyes.
Why?
