Well through this post I just want to put some light on importance of SRT (Situation reaction test) in Psychology Test. This is one of the SSB interview test in which candidates need to write their response for 60 situations within 30 mins of time duration,you are suppose to write your idea and reaction to tackle the situation.
- 15 most confusing SRT
- Instructions for Situation Reaction Test
- What is SRT and how to tackle it
- Commonly Confused SRTs
Repeaters knows the kind of situations comes in SRT and Fresher can just go through this post to get more idea what to do or what not to do. Situations are common but rarely happens to someone in other words the most common situations can happen to you but rarely. Simple example ” you lost your ticket while travelling in train” this is common but happens rarely to someone.
Okay, above situation is very normal when compare to other situations, situation like ” you saw two gunmen forcing a lady on road in the middle of the night, what will you do ??” this situation is very rare but it very common nowadays. Everybody has their own tactics to tackle some problem and the way of tackling a problem is also considered in SSB. Your response must be practical , practical ? what do you mean by practical?
It must be Practically possible, I mean, you must write something which you will actually do under such situation, after thinking wisely. Please do not say you will go towards gunmen and kick them with your kung-fu this is not practical even when you know kung fu, because gunmen having Guns which is much faster than your kicks.. okay jokes apart…:) Okay I will give you one more example and please do not ask what I will do with those gunmen, because everybody has their own way to tackle situations, as I said above and I don’t want to make you confuse.
Below is the comment on SRT by one of the recommended candidate:
You are waiting for a relative at railway station. The train has arrived and suddenly you hear a loud explosion around. You see some people dead and some people badly injured or bleeding. People are running here and there. You will…….
Here the first reaction is to keep YOURSELF safe. If you yourself gets injured then who will help others? Ensure that you are standing at right place(open space) where probability of explosion is low. Then call the ambulance, Police, Bomb Squad etc and help the injured people.
To sum up:
In all SRT’s we need to think a little bit. In this case some people write ” I will run to the spot , call the ambulance, …”lekin spot pe bhag k jake karoge kya? On the spot pe jake ambulance ko call karne se accha hai ki you move away from the crowd, look around for empty space,and then call..and so on..”
