Yep, the Bartle Test of Gamer Psychology, aimed more at MMO players but can probably be used in other genres (if used outside of games, I'd be very pessimistic about what the results say.)
As for studies and surveys, when I used to frequent r/truegaming, there'd be quite a few studies and surveys there from developers and publishers gauging community interest, or university students asking questions for their dissertations.
It's quite good way to test out how gamers make their decisions psychologically. I just posted my own result on the test now.

Here my own test results, I'm a very good socializer.
The Bartle Test of Gamer Psychology
You are 67% Explorer
What Bartle says:
♠ Explorers delight in having the game expose its internal machinations to them. They try progressively esoteric actions in wild, out-of-the-way places, looking for interesting features (ie. bugs) and figuring out how things work. Scoring points may be necessary to enter some next phase of exploration, but it's tedious, and anyone with half a brain can do it. Killing is quicker, and might be a constructive exercise in its own right, but it causes too much hassle in the long run if the deceased return to seek retribution. Socialising can be informative as a source of new ideas to try out, but most of what people say is irrelevant or old hat. The real fun comes only from discovery, and making the most complete set of maps in existence.
You are also:
60% Achiever
40% Killer
33% Socialiser

Now that I’m playing PS4 games (on my PS5) after nothing but PS3 games for ages, I can’t get over the smoothness of movement when I walk or look around.
Ignorant question: What technological change makes for this enhanced smoothness of motion?
When the framerates of new consoles keeps getting higher, it makes the new games graphics look more realistic and with a better smooth play.

Does anyone here have issues with RSI, carpal tunnel, or anything else that makes your wrists/hands swell or hurt? What are your strategies for dealing with this and continuing to enjoy your games?
I'm of the opinion that the best strategy to make use of it is stop playing for a while and heal up before you continue all over again.

I had this Facebook game called Criminal Case. Played it for 2 years, the game is epic.
That was a very good game then and for the fact that you can play with friends online through Facebook makes it all better.

I have set goals by 2022, but not to accomplish any video games, because I don't have much time for them towards completion, I play for the fun.
I want to take my FIFA dream higher, maybe start a streaming channel either at YouTube or go Live at twitch.
How can you play for fun and not want to complete any of the games that you got into? I find that weird.

I have sight issues, I don't keep my eyes on a brighter screen, I reduce it extremely low to suit my sight.
There are some different softwares that can help you to adjust your screen brightness automatically, that way you can easily worry less about doing it yourself.

Have you ever participated in a study or survey involving gaming? What was it about?
Not any as of recent but there was one shared here by @Withywarlockwhere the survey helps to show your personality or something.
-
I really love what you can be able to do with characters in Dragon Age: Inquisition, Warframe, Black Desert Online, and Cyberpunk 2077.

What were the most important games in your childhood/teen years? Mine were:
Myst/Riven
Original Starcraft/Warcraft games
Zork series
All Super Mario games, Contra, WWF, Super Sonic, The Punisher shooting mission game sums mine up.

If the helmets are in the game and for character's use, they are there to secure the character, so I'm definitely not turning them off.

What are some interesting RPG mechanics you’ve run across? Like, I think the “flaws” system in The Outer Worlds is interesting/distinctive.
Most, it's the character's customization that I fancy most in RPGs games. I love it when my characters are exactly how I want them.

We’ve talked about games that we didn’t think we would like that we ended up getting into. I am pretty sure we also have probably talked about what criteria we use to pick a game to play, i.e. what we think will make us like a game.
But what makes you suspect that you won’t enjoy a particular game when you watch a trailer, read a description, or read a review?
In my case, I think what makes me shy away from a game are mentions of puzzles and/or a lack of discussion regarding story or characters (making me think that neither are relevant). Unless it is an open world game, in which case I don’t think I’ve ever suspected I wouldn’t enjoy one. I used to suspect I would dislike all third person perspective games, but I’ve since gotten used to them, so that is no longer a deterrent.
What deters you from becoming interested in a game—sometimes perhaps to your own detriment?
Personally, I can't play games that are poor in graphics now. It's a big turn off for me when it comes to playing any games for me.

If you abruptly jumped from one game generation to another, what were the biggest adjustments you had to make? For me, it’s been the whole “press vs. hold” button thing jumping from PS3 to PS4 games. But expanded fields of view aren’t far behind (thankfully, it seems one can usually turn them down or off).
I'm still struggling with the use of analog in all generation of consoles that I have played on. It's more like they should exclude analog for me.

Is there a game you have played that you are quite confident no one else here has? What is it?
There are possibly a few old point and click adventures in this category for me, but even I can’t remember their names, unfortunately.
I know that there is going to be a possibility of Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord being played by another player. It's a 1980 single player mode role playing game.

Modding Skyrim has managed to make the game feel fresh even after 10 years and I still can't get enough of it.
Exactly, and when it's on PC that you get to be playing Skyrim, which supports all kinds of modding you're in for a whole loads of fun.
-
Will I ever get enough of Ghost of Tsushima? It's a game that wakes me up from sleep only to play for few minutes and go to sleep again.
-
There are some levels of destruction that would leave me speechless and in shock. Take for example, what happened in Spec Ops : The Line with the killing of innocent people using White Phosphorus.
-
Odd facts you say? How about that games are used in some medical cases to treat psychological disorders in patients?

Do you get fatigued (not bored, just literally fatigued) quicker playing some types of games than others, necessitating earlier breaks?
It's something that happens to me once in a while and it's especially with games that I have already completed and started to replay again.
-
Does it really matter the kind of personality the protagonist carries? As long as he or she was about to do what's supposed, I'm good with it.

Seriously, autosaves sucks most of the time for me especially when it messes up my gameplay. I prefer manual saves.
Do you think video game companies/devs can ever meet our demands?

Of course yes, they can definitely meet our demands and wishes but they won't do it because they wouldn't want to spend so much resources in doing that.
