Just took the test and scored a 36. Pretty sure that is not an authoritarian but would be nice if there was a scale. Perhaps the page I took the test on just didn't include one though.
I wish I could remember the url of the 4-square test which was a very similar type of test. It was quite long but measured 4 different attributes and then plotted you on a grid along with ghandi, hitler, clinton, etc.
Ahh, found the url for the grid test. I actually liked it better.

Thanks for the e-book pointer as well.
