The scale you completed was the Identification with All of Humanity Scale developed by Sam McFarland at the University of Western Kentucky.

The scale is a measure of how much one identifies with people locally, nationally, and globally.

The idea behind the scale is that some people identify with and feel a sense of community primarily with those nearby. Other people seem less interested in what's going on locally, and think about people more generally, even those far away. It is not clear that either orientation is better. Some moral systems say that we should treat all people equally, and care equally about the suffering or welfare of people whether or not they are in our community or country. Other moral systems say that loyalty to one's community and nation are important. Also, because it is often difficult to help people far away, it may be that a local focus leads to more charitable behavior. We are interested in the way this global-local focus interacts with happiness.
