INFP, so second coming of Shakespeare and Julia Roberts.

I don't know why they changed the P from Perceptive to Prospecting.

yo these are garbage tests based on no data and debunked theories (the test publishers had to create their own journal bc no one else would publish their studies lol) so i hope everyone is just dicking around and taking these about as seriously as a buzzfeed quiz

Reminder that the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is the result of home-schooling.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katharine_Cook_Briggs

Quote

Briggs was home schooled by her father.

Quote

She took her daughter out of traditional schooling, brought her home, and encouraged her to read and write on any topic of interest.

seems good.

I don't know the history of these tests that well, but I find myer's briggs to resonate and be generally more interesting than any other personality test I've taken. funny how turbulent it pinned me as, career wise im stable af, but personally I definitely value more turbulent, impulsive or even reckless behaviour vs. careful, planning types.

the reason it resonates with you and everyone else is just a barnum/forer effect you learn about in psyc-101, same ish as horoscopes

you are right that they are way more interesting to ppl than the competition though, that's how they get the $$$$, Big Five ppl really need to come up with a version that classifies people as "types" that's the only way to get folks interested in their results

This isn’t meant to suggest that INTJs act without conscience, but to many Feeling (F) types, INTJs’ distaste for acting on emotion can make it seem that way, and it explains why many fictional villains (and misunderstood heroes) are modeled on this personality type.

I knew that there was a reason for this, but I lacked the emotional intelligence to deduce it.

I believe A/T is how confident you are in what you are.

Famous INFPs
William Shakespeare, J.R.R. Tolkien, Björk, Johnny Depp, Julia Roberts, Lisa Kudrow, Tom Hiddleston

Fictional INFPs
Frodo Baggins from The Lord of the Rings, Anne of Green Gables, Fox Mulder from X-Files, Amélie Poulain from Amélie, Arwen from The Lord of the Rings, Sybil Branson from Downton Abbey, Lance Sweets from Bones

That stuff baffles me. Japanese people tell me, "Oh, Chrono-chan, you're definitely 'B'!" or "You're so much a type-O," and then I say, "I'm 'A.'" At which point they all say, "Oh, right! Type-A! I can definitely see that!" Bullllllshiiiiiiiit.

I don't know what it means but it seems fairly accurate.

It's pretty close, but the percentages lean toward ambiguity rather than insight. Pretty sure I've seen other Myers-Briggs tests which are just two-value, eschewing strength of agreement, or at least eliminating the "neither" option, forcing a choice.

larrydavid · « **Reply #48 on:** June 07, 2016, 03:14:01 AM »

you can probably trust your extraversion score, that's one of the Big Five (and also happens to be one of the easiest personality traits to measure, either through self-report or observer reports)

the other four traits listed there don't show up in any other research, and the particular "types" that come out of the test are total bullshit nonsense, never been validated in any for real journal article, horoscope level text descriptions

nudemacusers · « **Reply #49 on:** June 07, 2016, 09:37:25 PM »

it's ok larrydavid i'm sure you'll get a higher score next time
