Exactly why I won't even try.

I had it for the first time almost 20 years ago. Since then, I've had it a several times and the INF stays pretty solid.

INTJ. Same as it was 20 years ago.

why do you say that? :)


I = socializing on a website instead of actually meeting people
S = caring about a score you get from other people
T = constantly trying to come up with objective and measurable criteria to vote on
J = voting on photos

btw, my rating is same as you: INTP/INFP

I just did it again, and for the first time, the "N" turned to an "S"

However, the "s" and "j" part was only a 1. From my psychology classes, I seem to remember that anything that close indicated that it was possible that you could go back and forth depending on life situations, etc.

I also remember one prof explaining that anything in the teens or 20s indicated a strong preference in that area. My "I" is 89. :P So, while the other areas continue to get lower and closer to the middle, that one area continues to get stronger nad stronger

this site has more information. If you hover over the type, you'll get a pop-up explaining it.

This guy is creeping me out. He's up to no good.

Done a few of these over the years (some for work) and I get the same answer every time INTP... which to most people in the world is the same as a PITA....... but it gives me an excuse when really it's just a personality trait :-)

Edit: Just read karmat's post... Interesting cause the last one is always the lowest for me and seems to be getting lower over time (this time 11) vs. the others that are always higher (50/25/100 this time). I guess that means I am start to assume people are idiots instead of letting them prove it over time :-)

I see one other INFJ on the list, which is interesting because one of the descriptions put it at 1% of the population. I guess I'm just a weirdo. :)

I'm take the test and I'm not entirely sure yes/no answers are the best judge of a personality.. For some questions both yes/no are incorrect *scratch head*

INTJ

Wow, I'm a Mastermind! Imagine that. Doc, mine also says "Masterminds are rare, comprising no more than, say, one percent of the population".

You can find a supposed distribution chart at wiki.

Probably the strengths of each is important too. For example, I'm "distictively" I and N, but only "moderately" F and "slightly" J. Which probably indicates that if I were to take the test again in three months the IN would stick but the FJ could change from test to test.

You know, I could have sworn I took a Meyers-Briggs test a few years back where the questions had a "never/very seldom/seldom/sometimes/often/very often/always" type of scale to them. I think that answer was FAR more accurate than the one I got on this one. The one I got on this one wasn't very accurate at all. Yes/No is, indeed, incredibly limiting.

hmmm... Not a bad fit.

INFP
The polite, reserved exterior of INFPs can at first make them difficult to get to know. They enjoy conversation, however, taking particular delight in the unusual. When INFPs are in a sociable mood, their humor and charm shine through. Disposed to like people and to avoid conflict, INFPs tend to make pleasant company.

Devoted to those in their inner circle, INFPs guard the emotional well-being of others, consoling those in distress. Guided by their desire for harmony, INFPs prefer to be flexible unless their ethics are violated. Then, they become passionate advocates for their beliefs. They are often able to sway the opinions of others through tact, diplomacy, and an ability to see varying sides of an issue.

INFPs develop these insights through reflection, and they require substantial time alone to ponder and process new information. While they can be quite patient with complex material, they are generally bored by routine. Though not always organized, INFPs are meticulous about things they value. Perfectionists, they may have trouble completing a task because it cannot meet their high standards. They may even go back to a completed project after the deadline so they can improve it.

INFPs are creative types and often have a gift for language. As introverts, they may prefer to express themselves through writing. Their dominant Feeling drives their desire to communicate, while their auxiliary intuition supplies the imagination. Having a talent for symbolism, they enjoy metaphors and similes. They continually seek new ideas and adapt well to change. They prefer working in an environment that values these gifts and allows them to make a positive difference in the world, according to their personal beliefs.[14]

Exactly! I still managed to sludge through the quiz to end up at INTP.. which is the same result I had a few years ago..

I ΓΆ€“ Introversion preferred to extraversion: INTPs tend to be quiet and reserved. They generally prefer interacting with a few close friends rather than a wide circle of acquaintances, and they expend energy in social situations (whereas extraverts gain energy)
N ΓΆ€“ iNtuition preferred to sensing: INTPs tend to be more abstract than concrete. They focus their attention on the big picture rather than the details, and on future possibilities rather than immediate realities.
T ΓΆ€“ Thinking preferred to feeling: INTPs tend to value objective criteria above personal preference. When making decisions, they generally give more weight to logic than to social considerations.
P ΓΆ€“ Perception preferred to judgment: INTPs tend to withhold judgment and delay important decisions, preferring to "keep their options open" should circumstances change.

Probably not a coincidence that I'm a night shift supervisor. =)

INTJ
- very expressed introvert (100)
- slightly expressed intuitive personality (12)
- slightly expressed thinking personality (1)
- very expressed judging personality (78)
