Yes or No?

I am going to ask you a yes or no question – and the way you answer could say a lot about you...

Go ahead and answer this question out loud. Are you paying attention? The word you answered that with says something about your personality. According to Dr. W. Beryl West, professor of psychology, there is a big difference between yesses and nos:

• If you respond "yeah" or "nah," you’re a spontaneous person.

• If you answer "yessiree" or "nosiree" - or "yo", "yay" or "nay" – consider yourself a free spirit with an active social life.

• Responding with "yes, sir" and "no, sir" means you're polite and enjoy being in charge.

• If you answer "yes" or "no" you are a precise person and always know the proper thing to do or say.

• If you respond with "mm-hmmm" for "yes" and "uh-uh" for "no," you're physically strong and like people and animals.

• People who reply "yep" or "nope" are creative and have lots of self-confidence.
