In the hit Marvel cinematic universe movie Doctor Strange (2016), talented Neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange suffers a tragic car accident which ruins his medical career. After finding and joining a group of witches and sorcerers, he learns that Kamar-Taj, the group's compound, is under attack. A former member turned rogue named Kaecilius is the attacker. He confronts Doctor Strange on a long stairway. When Kaecilius says "How long have you been at Kamar-Taj, Mister ...," Strange answers with his formal title, "Doctor." A confused Kaecilius replies with "Mister Doctor," and Strange quips back: "It's Strange." Still confused, Kaecilius replies with "Maybe, but who am I to judge." In this brief exchange, Doctor Strange's simple responses cause confusion over his name, and this lack of clarity demonstrates a well below-average example of the Readability attribute.

In Superman (2025), Lex Luthor is confronted by Superman (Clark Kent) for stealing his dog. Superman storms in Lex's office in the city and flips his desk, demanding to know the location of his dog, Krypto. Lex lies to Superman while holding a stern glaze and sipping his coffee. Lex then makes a comment under his breath about how the dog wears a cape, making it plain to all that Lex in fact stole Superman's dog. Lex's ability to deceive Superman while giving himself away demonstrates an above-average example of the Apperception attribute.

In the cult classic movie American Psycho (2000), Christian Bale portrays Patrick Bateman, a big-shot New York City investment banker who goes on a literal killing spree. After avoiding capture throughout the film, Patrick is sitting at the bar with his coworkers while the television is playing in the background. Bateman delivers the movie's closing with an intense monologue that describes the horrific things he has done, and how he has little remorse. Despite Bateman's cruel behavior, he discusses his feelings and those of others in vivid detail insofar as it matters to him. Bateman's comments about the emotional states of others demonstrate an average example of the Emotion attribute.

In Season 7, Episode 6 ("Beyond the Wall") of the hit HBO show Game of Thrones (2017), a battle rages between Jon Snow's group and the White Walkers, led by the Night King. As the dragon Viserion is flying around, the Night King is handed a spear by one of his own soldiers. The Night King then aims at the dragon and strikes it, taking the beast down. Later, the Night King walks up to the line separating the two camps and makes eye contact with Snow as he raises his arms. The Night King never speaks or makes any sounds, thus giving no verbal information to anyone, and this demonstrates an extreme-low example of the Volubility attribute.
