What Is Your Personality Type?

    I have been inspired by another thread and my own curiosity about you lot to pose the above question.

    The Myers Briggs Type Inventory Test is the go to place for determining your "type". Us humans are very complex and I don't believe we can be easily categorised. Yet these kind of tests interest me. I've done the MBTI a good few times and always come out with the same result, INFJ.

    What is your "type" and do you feel it's accurate? I'm on my phone so can't stick up a link but a quick Google should find you the test so you can take it if you wish.

    I'm either an ISTJ or an INTJ, it varies.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    INTJ apparently, I don't particularly agree.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 140 ✭✭luftmensch


    INTP

    Lazy type for you I'd wager.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,809 ✭✭✭Speedwell


    INTJ. Actually once or twice I scored dead on the line between INTJ and ENTJ, but mostly INTJ. If I wasn't a person with Asperger's, I'd probably be EEEEEEEEEENTJ.

    It will be interesting to see if there will be a predominant type among us.

    I routinely test as INTP but the Myers-Briggs is about as useful for telling your personality as Horoscopes are useful for telling your future. Nothing but a load of Barnum statements. Believe it or not, everyone has their own unique personality that can't be determined by a few questions and conviently putting them into one of sixteen boxes.

    Do a poll. Sure there's only 16 types.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 580 ✭✭✭JumpShivers

    Apparently I'm ENTP... innovative and ingenious with a perverse sense of humour who generally loves to argue.

    I don't think these tests are worth much, they could depend on what mood you're in, how deluded you are about your own actions. An extrovert can be introverted under certain circumstances, generally it's learned behaviour that can be changed.

    Mine says INTJ but I feel the idea of these boxes is not far off horoscopes.
    Yes people can have a primary mode of reacting and feeling but not enough to call these exact.
