The Left Values Political Test is distributed under the MIT License. The Left Values Political Test is not the equivalent of the Political Compass Test, as a registered trademark of Pace News Limited, or the Political Coordinates Test, which is the property of IDRlabs. Nor is it the equivalent of the 8 Values Test, which is published under the MIT License.

This test has been made to pertain exclusively to people who identify with the left-wing side of the political spectrum. Even so, please keep in mind that not everyone who identifies as left-wing will feel that their politics are accurately or fairly represented by this test since tests are merely approximations of wider empirical and theoretical and political landscapes.

Political tests and quizzes, whether they are professional or "official" tests used in academic research or free online Left Values Tests like this one, are merely indications of your political standpoint. No quiz ever devised can, in fact, determine your political standpoint with absolute accuracy or reliability. Similarly, no Left Values Political Test, Political Coordinates Test, or Political Compass Test can replace familiarizing yourself with the politics of your country in depth.

Before using our free online Left Values Political Quiz, please note that the test exclusively caters to left-wingers; that results are provided "as-is" and should not be interpreted as providing professional or certified advice of any kind.

Why Use This Test?

1. Free. This online Left Values political test is delivered to you free of charge and will allow you to obtain your coordinates on seven political axes exclusively related to left-wing politics and thereby ultimately matching you to an overall political standpoint.

2. Exclusively left-wing. While there are other “political coordinates” and “political compass” tests out there, this test is exclusively designed for people who identify as left-wing, in order to gain a better understanding of their own political standpoints relative to other left-wingers.

3. Contemporary. Several of the most popular “political compass” and “political coordinates” tests out there were made more than 10 years ago and/or made in conjunction with specific elections. By contrast, the Left Values political test is nested within a more modern political paradigm.

4. Tested in several countries. The present 8 Values test has already been tested in several countries and used with success in several different regions, including the USA, Canada, and several European countries.
