Know yourself: The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Thread

[sjane]

I didn't take the test just now, but I always get INFP, with a heavy emphasis on the Introvert. I think it was 100% last time.

[Possegal]

I too didn't take it now but always get ESFP when I take these things.

[Reesha]

Heh - that was funny. I was taking it and feeling like I was being entirely too wishy-washy in my responses even though they accurately reflected how I felt about each question.

So my result was this:

ESTJ - "Administrator". Much in touch with the external environment. Very responsible. Pillar of strength. 8.7% of total population

Which is pretty spot-on accurate.

But when I looked at this:

Extroverted (E) 52.78% Introverted (I) 47.22%
Sensing (S) 52.94% Intuitive (N) 47.06%
Thinking (T) 60% Feeling (F) 40%
Judging (J) 52.63% Perceiving (P) 47.37%

I WAS being wishy-washy! I'm pretty close to middle of the road for most of these. Interesting. Perhaps that's why I often get told that I should have been a diplomat?

I think it's absolutely normal for some people to be very well rounded individuals. Indeed, even as we grow older some over extremities kind of level out if we continue to develop ourselves

[Reesha]

INTJ - "Mastermind". Introverted intellectual with a preference for finding certainty. A builder of systems and the applier of theoretical models.

I've taken various versions of this test many times (the full one, professionally scored, twice and lots of shorter online versions) since my senior year in high school and have tested every single time as an INTJ. Know yourself, indeed.

Voldemort!

*to qualify, I love INTJs. They are such fun because they think entirely different from me in most ways-- but we are universally united by our intuitiveness. love it.

[Blueberry]

Another INTJ.

I have tested as an ISTJ also - but I actually think INTJ is more accurate for me....

[TsPoet]

I think it would be interesting to get my SO to take this test on my behalf. Don't think this is me at all.


Introverted (I) 65.71% Extroverted (E) 34.29%
Sensing (S) 52.5% Intuitive (N) 47.5%
Thinking (T) 62.86% Feeling (F) 37.14%
Perceiving (P) 61.11% Judging (J) 38.89%

or maybe it is.
but not this

ISTP - "Engineer". Values freedom of action and following interests and impulses. Independent, concise in speech, master of tools.

Mabey it doesn't mean engineer in the way I think - Engineers are math oriented. I'm not even remotely concise in speech, I have good friends who usually cut me off and translate what I'm trying to say into a sentence.

[sadieme]

Yup... pretty much.
