    Additionally, a quiz may be a series of multiple-choice questions about the respondent without right or wrong answers. The responses to these questions are tallied according to a key, and the result purports to reveal some quality of the respondent. This kind of "quiz" was originally popularized by women's magazines such as Cosmopolitan. They have since become common online, where the result page typically includes code which can be added to a blog entry to publicize the result. These postings are common on LiveJournal.
