A new optical illusion personality test is helping people discover what others notice about them when they first meet. Based on the famous illusion paintings of Ukrainian artist Oleg Shuplyak, the test asks viewers to focus on the first object they spot in a painting. Experts say the object that catches your eye within five seconds can reveal how people perceive you.
Optical illusions are known to trick the brain and eyes, and this test uses that principle to uncover aspects of personality and first impressions. "The object you see within 5 seconds is the thing that reveals how people see you," the test explains.
If you spot the horse first, the test suggests that people notice your intense eye contact. "They might initially find this a little unsettling, but after speaking to you, they will notice your charming personality and capacity to maintain lasting relationships," it says.
If the mysterious musician appears first to you, it indicates that people are likely drawn to your sense of humour. "You have a warm way of greeting people and letting them know that you're always up for some fun, even when you're just saying 'hello,' you can make others smile," the test notes.
Those who spot the big head first are seen as especially welcoming. "You emit an aura, which is one-of-a-kind. It encourages people from all walks of life to talk to you because they know that your friendly demeanour will comfort them," the test says.
While the test offers insights into first impressions, it emphasises that people need not change themselves to be liked. "You don't need to change yourself for anyone to like you," it adds.
The optical illusion test has become popular online as a fun way to explore personality traits. Users are encouraged to share their results and thoughts in the comments, making it both entertaining and reflective.
