I've taken this test before with very similar results. I don't like the term "introvert" because it comes with so many preconceived notions that I don't think are true about me. But, I can't disagree with most of this test.
I took this test years ago, but can't remember what the results were. Your results seem to fit you pretty well, except you don't strike me as being that introverted.
Don't confuse introversion with assertiveness. Introversion is about where you get energy. Introverts might tolerate crowds of people, but generally they have their energy drained by large groups. Introverts need alone time.
Assertiveness is simply about standing up for your ideas, regardless of the social context in which you are challenged.
Sara is living proof that introverts can be very assertive people.
@Yulianna: @pone22: @Rutterman: I think Pone said it exactly right. And btw, Pone, you are the first person to have explained this to me (way back on EP) in a way that makes sense. I can do the party thing, I can do the public speaking thing, I can do the whole group project/study thing, but all these things drain me. Right now I am loving that I have almost every weekend alone. It's my time to recharge.
@sarabee1995: @Rutterman: hey! what is this american imperialism? my island (ok sarabee - it is half yours too) so my rules - clothes may be removed for cleansing, for swimming or as part of sexual act... otherwise modesty all times!
@Yulianna: Hahaha... okay my love, modesty at all times. But, you know, I like being clean so i'll be spending a lot of time cleaning. And,of course, I love swimming, so...
