I did read those articles and I wasn't impressed to be honest, it was interesting but I didn't like the style.
I'd agree that finding a job based on it is too much and they only pick out 'nice' jobs for you anyway. Out of the millions of vocations they pick twenty or something in total. But from the test and the analysis you can see how different aspects can be suited to areas that you may not have thought about.
I find it difficult to relate to nurture as I can't remember my childhood and therefore can't link events to how that has affected me now. Experience, whilst being part of nurture I tend to regard as a seperate being altogether. I agree that one may act as another but I find that what people want from themselves is limited to what they imagine. Forced change in personality through circumstance is an interesting position, I can see how circumstance can affect morals and morality which in turn affects how we tackle problems and social engagements. Eg. gang culture leads to shift in what is acceptable as an outcome to a solution and as such the problem of having no money leads to theft.
I don't put much stock in these tests in case you think otherwise, they serve as a nice distraction and as an adequate way to categorize humanity.
