MBTI Personality Discussion

Sort:

   For those who are unaware, The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (or MBTI) is a personality type test developed in the 1900’s by Katharine and Isabel Briggs. A series of questions on the test are designed to provoke honest answers from the participant that indicate specific traits or qualities. Some regard MBTI to be pseudoscience, but it can still be used to better understand oneself. 
   There are 16 different personality types. Each has an assigned 4 letter combination, with each letter having a different meaning. The following Letters are E,I,S,N,T,F,J,P.

First                                                      Third

E- Extroversion                                    T- Thinking

I- Introversion                                      F- Feeling

Second                                                 Fourth

S- Sensing                                           J- Judging

N- Intuitive                                           P- Perceiving

Please, answer honestly in the test to get an accurate result! At times you may receive an incorrect deduction of your actual personality type. For example, at times the test may tell me I am an INFP, and at other times, INFJ. I am certain I am INFJ though, because I have read experiences of others that I can relate to.

Feel free to share which type you got! And if you have any potential discussions on certain personalities I would love to partake.

I got INFP-T when I took the test, and found it surprisingly very accurate

Interesting! What did you resonate the most with?

Interesting test. I read the article @DiogenesDue linked over in that other thread, https://www.themyersbriggs.com/en-US/Products-and-Services/-/media/myers-briggs/files/sample-reports/smp261161.pdf , as well as several others. It was easy to see I'm introverted but I had a hard time trying to decide where I placed with the others. Now I know why.

This test typed me as ISFP but, looking at the numbers, I think my type could change depending on my mental state at the time.

Extraverted - 2%
 Introverted - 98%

Intuitive - 46%
Observant - 54%

Thinking - 49%
Feeling - 51%

Judging - 49%
Prospecting - 51%

Assertive - 49%
Turbulent - 51%

Are you interested in art?

Eldred_Woodcock

It depends. I marvel at the skill of the masters, regardless the media. Van Gogh can touch my soul at times. There are very few arts I'm interested in creating, though. Music is a big one. I was once almost good, I may be again someday. I've been trying to play more now that the cat doesn't chew the strings every time. My other real interest in art is wood carving. I love wood and I've collected some gouges and interesting pieces of wood. Now if I could just find time in and amongst all these other hobbies and interests.

I can relate. I have so many different hobbies that I’d love to engage in but it’s so hard to find the time. I’m not the artsy type but have some family members who are. I love watching art though and learning about those who have created it. The most artsy hobby I have is perhaps building Lego Mocs. But I’ve recently discovered that my love of doing so is less art inclined and more for story telling.
