Title: Do you know your MBTI type?
Post by: Rift Zone on March 07, 2018, 01:43:12 PM
Hello everyone!    I'm curious about the personality types present here...   If you know your type, would you please share it?   

Thanks!

Hey Zone of Rifting,

Mine is "THE PROTAGONIST" (ENFJ-T), or at least according to the latest test I took and cheated on.

Regards,

Bruno

Well, on  this site I am:
(https://psychcentral.com/quizzes/personality/start.php)
ISTP -THE MECHANIC

Which the MBT Foundation  (http://www.myersbriggs.org/my-mbti-personality-type/mbti-basics/the-16-mbti-types.htm)define as
QuoteTolerant and flexible, quiet observers until a problem appears, then act quickly to find workable solutions. Analyze what makes things work and readily get through large amounts of data to isolate the core of practical problems. Interested in cause and effect, organize facts using logical principles, value efficiency.
Leave to you guys to decide the accuracy! (But I think it fits  :grin:.)

But I am sure that I have had a different result previously, and probably would have yet another next week!

Later: hmm, INTJ rings a bell for me:

QuoteINTJ
Have original minds and great drive for implementing their ideas and achieving their goals. Quickly see patterns in external events and develop long-range explanatory perspectives. When committed, organize a job and carry it through. Skeptical and independent, have high standards of competence and performance - for themselves and others.

Even later: But I can't find me linked to that on a search.

Silver, you were complaining about being classified INTJ back in 2011 - gotta live with it girl!

Maybe I have multiple personalities.
I just took two different tests and got completely different results. INFJ and ESFP-A.
The only shared letter is the F. Which means I'm FEELING.  ;D
I wonder what it means that I'm right down the middle: one test said that for 3 of my traits, I am marginally (by 3%) on that side.
Does this mean that I don't know myself? Am I wishy-washy?
Ugh. Nevermind. I'm gonna be late for work.....

I think I can be one too, No one...when necessary, but according to the test, I'm a MEDIATOR (INFP-T), like JJ.

The last time I took it I got INFJ-T, The Advocate.

As I've said before, though, my answers vary pretty much every time I take these tests. My personality and mind are a mess. lol

Just put it down to being one of the universe's great paradoxes, Silver . . .

I got: ISTJ - The Duty Fulfiller
"Serious and quiet, interested in security and peaceful living. Extremely thorough, responsible, and dependable. Well-developed powers of concentration. Usually interested in supporting and promoting traditions and establishments. Well-organized and hard working, they work steadily towards identified goals. They can usually accomplish any task once they have set their mind to it."

I agree with everything but the traditions and establishments thing.

My type depends on the day. I've taken many different quizzes for them over the years and have gotten many different types. I think that people are complicated creatures that flow in and out of social situations using the tools that they have developed throughout their lives to do so. There are some external as well as internal pressures that change how a person behaves.

So I don't really find these personality types to be very useful for either myself, evaluating others, or even when writing characters. Especially not the last because fictional characters that follow a personality types like that tend to feel 2-dimensional and boring, because even if most people can't express their understanding of personality, they can instinctively tell that people don't fit into 16 different types.

Every time I've taken one of these tests, including by an accredited tester, I have been given ENTP, variously described as the debater or the inventor.

I thought we had been through this before:

http://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=14272.45

two years ago.

There, Davin, you got:

Quote"The Logistician" (ISTJ-A)

32% Extraverted 68% Introverted
42% Intuitive 58% Observant
61% Thinking 39% Feeling
71% Judging 29% Prospecting
91% Assertive 9% Turbulant

I don't think it's very accurate for me, especially the description of ISTJ-A's. Most of it feels a lot like the Barnum Effect. Plus, many of the questions I had to answer neutral because I didn't fit either side.

Seems I did try the test but failed to give much detail.

QuoteI tried this yonks ago and came out strongly analyst.

This time it seems I am a campaigner!

As you suggest, Davin, the results can depend on current factors in your life "Analyst", "mechanic and "campaigner" can all apply to me but perhaps the last is the lesser. The first two certainly show strongly in the 2004 psychometric vocational testing we got for half-price at college, but the "mechanic" much less so in similar tests I took in the early 1970s.

But I also seem to have had a fixation on flatulence at that time of that earlier thread!
