Emotional Intelligence IQ (http://www.helpself.com/) tests your emotional responses to anger, love, hate, jealousy, guilt, sadness and fear.

Keirsey Temperament Sorter (http://keirsey.com/keirsey.html) is designed to identify different kinds of personality. It is similar to other devices derived from Carl Jung's theory of "psychological types," such as the Myers-Briggs, the Singer-Loomis, and the Grey-Wheelright. The questionaire identifies four temperament types. Take the assessment and see what you think. (http://www.keirsey.com/cgi-bin/keirsey/newkts.cgi)
