Guest Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 INFJ, however: The Myers-Briggs Personality Test Is Bullshit That said, it made a heck of a lot of sense to me, more so than the others (I read them all, as I was curious back in the day when I did this as part of a career planning course).

SlargTheGnome Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I won't deny the test is kind of dubious, but I am a pretty stereotypical ENFP. (Ooh, shiny!) Link to post Share on other sites
Skycaptain Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Come now. Myers-Briggs is second most talked about topic on AVEN after the definition of asexulity 😋 😋 Link to post Share on other sites
Tintinfan Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I am just lurking here so I can find some extroverts... Extroverts on AVEN though... Ha ha. Link to post Share on other sites
Feynman Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I hadn't heard of that until now... I would certainly say INTJ. That said, why does that thing even exist? Link to post Share on other sites
Madao Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 INFP, and I must had taken that test so many times, because the description of INFP doesn't match me except the imagination part. Link to post Share on other sites
Aloney Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I'm joining the extrovert club! ENFP-T here, the description is pretty much me, surprisingly :'D Link to post Share on other sites
eilaz Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I did the test thrice in my life and every time i got an INTP that fits me okay (or at least more than the other types do) Link to post Share on other sites
ColeHW34 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I actually have 3 types. INTJ, INFJ and ISTJ. Not sure just how it happened but it happened. Link to post Share on other sites
Tunes Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 On 9/22/2018 at 3:26 AM, Feynman said: That said, why does that thing even exist? People trying to learn more about personality, originally. Someone studied people, tried to generalize the personality traits that they could see through observing actions, and tried to group them together. The creator of the original version of this test admitted that it was for fun and experimentation only. Some others got a hold of it (Meyers and Briggs, I imagine), expanded it somewhat, and then started asserting that it was accurate and extremely useful for determining your personality, and based on that, the decisions that you should make. It became associated with careers - they had kids take it in school to tell them what they should focus on studying and what jobs they would be good at in the future. Employers made you take the test to determine whether or not to hire you. It got way out of hand. That did die down, but I still see people swear by it and hear about situations where people still try to use it for life-altering decisions. That being said, I do think it’s a lot of fun and can help you get started on some introspection of your own. It’s not useless or stupid - it’s quite clever and impressively done. It’s just not as reliable as people try to male it out to be. Link to post Share on other sites
ryn2 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 The problem I always have is twofold... 1) my answers to many of the test questions are true* rather than true, meaning that they would really only be accurate if I could elaborate further, and that elaboration might invalidate any given question, and 2) from what I understand the test is really just intended to help narrow down which of the 16 types most like apply/applies (so you don’t have to read and reflect upon all 16). When I actually read the type descriptions, none of them fit me. The only part that’s really conclusively true for me is that I’m more introvert than extravert, and that I am totally intuiting (I live in my head) rather than sensing (living in the body). Two of my partners have been sensing and there’s just no commonality in the way we experience things. I can always tell when a writer is sensing because, again, their way of experiencing the world is so foreign to me. Link to post Share on other sites

Kia Hiraeth Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I just took the test and got INFJ, it was kind of interesting to see how accurate the description of INFJ fit me, both the good and bad quality's. Link to post Share on other sites

Philip027 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Quote "[For introversion and extroversion,] you either get an 'I' or an 'E' score. It's a true/false kind of test. It limits the variance of it," says Riggio. "Most other personality tests measure as a continuum. They can say, 'You're a little bit I,' or, 'You're on the borderline,' or, 'You're a little bit E.'" Uhh, nah, it's not just one or the other. Just look at my sig. Sure, it picks a letter depending on what's most dominant, even if it's just by a little bit, but it does still measure.

Bejawa Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 ENTP-A Typically at least. My extroversion is very moderate however. I need people to talk to but if it's the wrong type of people I get extreamly drained from the conversation. Link to post Share on other sites
General Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I'm an INFJ. I've taken the test multiple times and my results remain the same. I'd say the reading is pretty accurate for me personally. Link to post Share on other sites
Nopscrunch Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I had to take the test to know and i find the results pretty cool, lol I'm INFJ-T Also its interesting how most of us are I(introverted) N(intuitive) and something else. Link to post Share on other sites
