You genuinely mean to sit with long things — one screen is just not enough. You cannot wait and you cannot help drifting, so you need at least two streams running to feel settled.
Who you are
What the four axes add up to
You genuinely intend to sit with long things. You want to finish the film, finish the book. One screen is simply not enough.
Nothing feels settled unless at least two streams are running, so you watch a film while holding your phone, run a stream beside your work, and then find yourself properly watching the stream. Doing one thing at a time is the state that unsettles you.
You can focus in a cinema and never finish anything at home. That difference is the whole diagnosis: it is not that focus is missing, it is that an escape route is available and you take it.
Your tolerance for parallel input is high; a flood of information does not faze you. Neither stream stays in memory, though. Cut one and the same hour becomes dramatically more satisfying.
Where this type sits
- Dドバドバ薄い刺激では物足りない。常に何かが起きていてほしい
- Jじっくり最後まで付き合う。結論を急がない
- Gガマンできない今すぐ欲しい。数十秒の空白にも耐えられない
- K気が散る一つに留まれない。気づくと別のことを始めている
Sound familiar?
- You can focus in a cinema, but never finish a film at home
- The "background music" video eventually becomes the thing you are watching
- Doing only one thing makes you feel oddly restless
Still a strength
High tolerance for running things in parallel. A flood of information does not faze you.
The pitfall
Neither stream sticks. Cutting one of them makes the same hour feel far more satisfying.

How you are in love
Where the intensity and the impatience show
You give the relationship plenty of hours, but half your attention is elsewhere, and people feel it. Simply agreeing on when the phone goes down changes the whole thing.
How you are with friends
Plans, replies, and distance
You look at your phone while you are with people. You are listening; it does not look that way. Putting it down would fix the impression entirely, and you cannot do it.
How you are with games
What you stay with, and when you stop
You play while a stream runs beside it. You improve slowly because it is half-attention — and you are perfectly happy about that.
How it shows in your money
The shape your losses take
You research for hours and then buy on impulse anyway. Because you did the work, you rarely regret it. The hours, though, do not pay for themselves.
This quiz is for fun. "Dopagaki" is internet slang, not a medical diagnosis. The result has no clinical basis and says nothing about your health.
