Rice Purity Test

About

The Rice Purity Test is an online quiz designed for self-reflection, measuring a person's life experiences across various domains. Originally developed at Rice University in the 1920s as a short survey, it was later expanded in the 1980s into a 100-question format. Participants tick off experiences they've had, ranging from romantic encounters to recreational drug use and legal infractions. The test aims to provide a light-hearted, private assessment of one's 'innocence' or experiences, with a higher score indicating fewer life experiences and a lower score indicating more. It has gained popularity globally as a fun tool, especially among college students, to spark conversations and reflection on past experiences. The test is anonymous, shares no personal data, and serves purely for entertainment, not as a scientific or diagnostic tool. Over time, it has become a viral phenomenon, frequently discussed on social media platforms like Reddit and TikTok.
