Widom scaling

Wisdom scaling is a way to measure how wise a person is. It is based on the idea that wisdom is made up of skills, knowledge, and experiences. To measure how wise a person is, we ask them questions about different life experiences, and how they handled them. For example, we might ask them how they handled a tough situation at work, or how they made an important decision in their life. We then rate their answers on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the highest amount of wisdom. We use these scores to get an overall rating of how wise the person is.
