I'm an INFP 4w5, in other words a very dramatic head-in-the-clouds person.
And I love cats, art, literature, languages and unicorns like any other respectable INFP :P |

I'm an ISFJ-T (Introverted 40%; Observant 82%; Feeling 8%; Judging 55%; Turbulent 7%)
I read over what that personality types means & I was quite surprised by how accurately it described me. Quote:

I'm an INFP. I score INFP every time. I even took the test given to me by a psychologist...INFP. And I definitely fit the description.

INTJ; The rarest and most rational personality type.
It’s lonely at the top, and being one of the rarest and most strategically capable personality types, INTJs know this all too well. INTJs form just two percent of the population, and women of this personality type are especially rare, forming just 0.8% of the population – it is often a challenge for them to find like-minded individuals who are able to keep up with their relentless intellectualism and chess-like maneuvering. People with the INTJ personality type are imaginative yet decisive, ambitious yet private, amazingly curious, but they do not squander their energy. Nothing Can Stop the Right Attitude From Achieving Its Goal With a natural thirst for knowledge that shows itself early in life, INTJs are often given the title of “bookworm” as children. While this may be intended as an insult by their peers, they more than likely identify with it and are even proud of it, greatly enjoying their broad and deep body of knowledge. INTJs enjoy sharing what they know as well, confident in their mastery of their chosen subjects, but owing to their Intuitive (N) and Judging (J) traits, they prefer to design and execute a brilliant plan within their field rather than share opinions on “uninteresting” distractions like gossip. “You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.”A paradox to most observers, INTJs are able to live by glaring contradictions that nonetheless make perfect sense – at least from a purely rational perspective. For example, INTJs are simultaneously the most starry-eyed idealists and the bitterest of cynics, a seemingly impossible conflict. But this is because INTJ types tend to believe that with effort, intelligence and consideration, nothing is impossible, while at the same time they believe that people are too lazy, short-sighted or self-serving to actually achieve those fantastic results. Yet that cynical view of reality is unlikely to stop an interested INTJ from achieving a result they believe to be relevant. In Matters Of Principle, Stand Like a Rock INTJs radiate self-confidence and an aura of mystery, and their insightful observations, original ideas and formidable logic enable them to push change through with sheer willpower and force of personality. At times it will seem that INTJs are bent on deconstructing and rebuilding every idea and system they come into contact with, employing a sense of perfectionism and even morality to this work. Anyone who doesn’t have the talent to keep up with INTJs’ processes, or worse yet, doesn’t see the point of them, is likely to immediately and permanently lose their respect. Rules, limitations and traditions are anathema to the INTJ personality type – everything should be open to questioning and reevaluation, and if they see a way, INTJs will often act unilaterally to enact their technically superior, sometimes insensitive, and almost always unorthodox methods and ideas. This isn’t to be misunderstood as impulsiveness – INTJs will strive to remain rational no matter how attractive the end goal may be, and every idea, whether generated internally or soaked in from the outside world, must pass the ruthless and ever-present “Is this going to work?” filter. This mechanism is applied at all times, to all things and all people, and this is often where INTJ personality types run into trouble. One Reflects More When Traveling Alone INTJs are brilliant and confident in bodies of knowledge they have taken the time to understand, but unfortunately the social contract is unlikely to be one of those subjects. White lies and small talk are hard enough as it is for a type that craves truth and depth, but INTJs may go so far as to see many social conventions as downright stupid. Ironically, it is often best for them to remain where they are comfortable – out of the spotlight – where the natural confidence prevalent in INTJs as they work with the familiar can serve as its own beacon, attracting people, romantically or otherwise, of similar temperament and interests. INTJs are defined by their tendency to move through life as though it were a giant chess board, pieces constantly shifting with consideration and intelligence, always assessing new tactics, strategies and contingency plans, constantly outmaneuvering their peers in order to maintain control of a situation while maximizing their freedom to move about. 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 always thought my personality changed depending on how I felt that day- who I was with, if I was in one job or another but I've done this test thing a few times and seem to keep getting roughly the same result. I'm apparently either an INFJ or an ISTJ. I don't know how the J (judging) works because I don't tend to judge others but I do judge myself. I seem to let others set the path and then judge myself on how well I manage (or not...) in comparison. I don't really see myself as an introverted person but I guess I really do prefer the sound of silence but I like being around the bubbliness of others even if I find it exhausting- I'll always opt to be with others than alone given the chance even if it means the next day I'm battling with thoughts and doubts on what I did/said/didn't do...etc- does my mental health problem (anxiety, displaced on to being about what others think...) mean my entire personality is different to what I feel I pref erdoing (being with other people rather than being alone)? That's a pretty depressing thought.
The Sensing+Thinking or Feeling+iNutuitive, I seem to swap about these depending on what mindset I am in when answering but they seem to me to pretty much cover each other- I can't help wonder if I'm on the boarder for each. I am a tactile person, I tend to feel my way through life! That being said, I find things like personal contact difficult. Possbily due to past...stuff but when I am in control and touching non-personal things (fabrics in shops, packaging, handle bars or whatever) it's how I gather my information, it's how I feel secure or safe. But then I could argue this was also covered by trying to "feel" my way through things via listening to what people say and picking up feelings (often above what was said) eg someone who says their fine but is red in the face with tears streaming, the way they say they are fine means anything but...I'm probably going to confuse myself further here so I'll shut up now! But just a thought that maybe personality groups can cover each other in a different format but just get labelled something else- feeling things being similar to intutivity depending on what it is you are picking up on. Anyone who "feels" things from certain colours would be one example; feelings don't just happen the regular "normal" way for everyone! |

ISFJ - The Nurturer
Quiet, kind, and conscientious. Can be depended on to follow through. Usually puts the needs of others above their own needs. Stable and practical, they value security and traditions. Well-developed sense of space and function. Rich inner world of observations about people. Extremely perceptive of other's feelings. Interested in serving others. Wow! Pretty accurate if I say so myself! :-) |

ENFJ - Extravert(34%) Intuitive(9%) Feeing (44%) Judging(25%)
While I agree that 'Feelings' are a big part of my character, I am surprised by the score for 'Intuition'. I think intuition plays a very big part in who I am and my decision making processes. You would think that goes hand in hand with feelings. |

Either ISTP or INTP. I'm pretty sure I'm a dominant introverted thinker, and my extroverted feeling function is weak, but I'm not sure about the functions in between.
I'm also a 5w6. I'm actually leaning towards ISTP now, since I've learned what extraverted sensing really is, and that not all ISTPs are athletic. I'm far from athletic but I do like exploring the world around me when I can and I like working with my hands. However, I do tend to over think things and zone out a lot. That could be a reason why I didn't identify with the ISTP type for a long time. |

I'm an ENTJ, though I occasionally test out as INTJ, so I suppose I am a bit ambidextrous where my extra-vs-intro-versioning is concerned...
Stephen Colbert "outed" himself this week as an INFP, by way of an on-air consultation with a woman apparently sent directly from Myers Briggs Headquarters, shared here because the interaction is not only fun and full of friendly kibbitzing, but also insightful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=660&v=r36wnaSqJtw

yes Vonmoxie, I too have switched back and forth between 'Exxx" and 'Ixxx'. Generally tho, I tend to have stron numbers for Extroversion.
It really depends on how questions are asked. I crave social reaction and love to surround myself with people. I am great in a crowd and in a room full of people I like to be the centre of attention. I feel quite at ease public speaking in front of halls full of people. HOWEVER, given a group situation where I am being evaluated or am under scrutiny I am terrified, and quiet. I try to avoid people in such events and hide behind others. |

They pose as humans even though they have no understanding of the human heart; they eat even though they've never experienced hunger; they study even though they have no interest in academics; they seek friendship even though they do not know how to love. If I were to encounter such monsters, I would likely be eaten by them... because in truth, I am that monster.

Mine's in my dog. I've been into personality typology for a couple of years now, for tter or worse. Not gonna lie, I originally went into it for personal validation. Finding out I'm an ISFP was actually kind of devastating after a year and a half of mistyping. I'm still kind of prone to filtering self-hate through typology (being a "dumb Sensor", etc)...so, there's that. But I did make some friends through the typology community.

ISFP PERSONALITY (“THE ADVENTURER”)
I change during the course of a day. I wake and I'm one person, and when I go to sleep I know for certain I'm somebody else. Bob Dylan ISFP personality types are true artists, but not necessarily in the typical sense where they're out painting happy little trees. Often enough though, they are perfectly capable of this. Rather, it's that they use aesthetics, design and even their choices and actions to push the limits of social convention. ISFPs enjoy upsetting traditional expectations with experiments in beauty and behavior – chances are, they've expressed more than once the phrase "Don't box me in!" Bullcrap. Isn't me at all. Is this test even for real lol

Nope; I tend to be more introverted than extroverted, more intuitive than sensory, more thinker than feeler, and more judger that perceiver.

Just figured out why I am a bit wary of these personality tests! It took me to listening to a podcast talking about them before I realised why I am so wary (that and I seem to have a whole new personality every year or few years so I check; it seems one letter will swap at a time!)
The reason I am so dubious is that the results only say nice positive things. I'm used to finding a report which points out areas of improvement and what the downfalls of a result are (eg what problems you are likely to encounter.) These tests only say what is positive and in quite a generalist open way, as if it's all good and that is just too vague for me to comprehend. I want to find a personality test results which clearly outlines what the problem is so I can change it ![]() ![]() Maybe also a reason for me understanding why my personality seems to be always evolving and changing itself- in my own mind at least it would say I must be doing something right if I'm trying to change what I see the problems are, even if there is always something left for me to change. Maybe also a very good reason for the sheer increase in mental health problems over the decades is our inability to accept where we're and who we are. |

I'm an INTJ-T but on the rare occasion I am an ISTJ, but. I am 100% introverted I think or at leader 90%. Judging I was 67% I think. I did this test so many times before I didn't feel like retaking it again.
Also, being turbulent with INTJ means they are strong perfectionist and try to be perfect at everything and most lack confidence with this, even though INTJ are suppose to be one of the higher confidence types out of all of them. Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk
