What is your Myers-Briggs type?

ISFP. And seemingly the Dope’s only one.

As I recall, my S factor is slight, my I and my F are relatively strong, and my P-ness is huge.

:smack: :rolleyes:

Multiple iterations of Meyers-Briggs sessions have yielded vastly different results for me, so I just go with IHOP.

The I is the only thing I’m sure of, and I really do like pancakes.

(bolding mine)

I completely agree. All they need to know is that I can - and do - perform the duties of the job.

And where to send my paycheck.

I’ve heard that in many cases, the tests are just ways that they can randomly throw extra applicants out (when they meet all the criteria, but there aren’t enough positions) without being accused of racist, sexist, etc. discrimination. No cite.

'Scuse me, that's my toe you're stepping on. Good thing the P-ness is over my shoulder.

ENTP strong in every one (I’m always on the extremes of whatever I test for - same with things like learning styles, team roles etc etc)
Seems like there’s a handful of us here ::: waves:::

Mine’s INTP as well.

According to this site, we’re in good company.

ESFJ

slightly expressed extravert

distinctively expressed sensing personality

moderately expressed feeling personality

slightly expressed judging personality

ENT J/P
I have taken it every 5 years or so, and took the Level II about 3 years ago. Half of the time the test has been administrered by trained professionals.

I have also made habit of plotting all of my coworkers when they take it, just to get a feel for styles. While it is a bit of junk science, it can help to understand team dynamics.

Me too! Although you wouldn’t guess it from my post count…

INTJ.

INTJ here. I have a project going at work right now that has sucked away most of my time and all of my interest from my ‘regular’ activities, and it’s…guess what…process re-engineering.

“Because we’ve ALWAYS done it that way” just does not compute for me.

Okay, with Avarie537’s post we now have at least one of each of the 16 types of those who have chimed in so far, so I’ll put up a quick-and-dirty tally. While it challenged my interpretation skills a bit, I decided to count those whom I judged as “borderline” people (who felt split between two types) as “1/2’s” in the tally, one 1/2 for each.

ESTJ 2
ESTP 2
ESFP 2
ESFJ 1

ENTJ 6.5
ENTP 7.5
ENFP 2
ENFJ 2

ISTJ 4.5
ISTP 1
ISFP 1
ISFJ 2

INTJ 23
INTP 6
INFP 12.5
INFJ 7

Breakdown by the 8 basic classifications:

E 25
I 57

S 15.5
N 66.5

T 52.5
F 29.5

J 48
P 34

My biggest surprise is how much the INTJ’s outweighed the INTP’s: if any conclusion can be drawn from this admittedly flawed and limited sample I wonder what it is about the Dope which draws the former so much more than the latter (heck there are more ENTP’s than INTP’s…). Consider also that the INFP/INFJ split went the other way.

I am an INTP. Nice link Walker in Eternity. That personality type may be rare in the population, rarer among women, but I think I can say with near certainty I’m the only INTP preschool teacher.

Using Wikipedia’s percentages and your numbers:

ESTJ U.S.: 8.7% SDMB: 2.4%
ESTP U.S.: 4.3% SDMB: 2.4%
ESFP U.S.: 8.5% SDMB: 2.4%
ESFJ U.S.: 12.3% SDMB: 1.2%

ENTJ U.S.: 1.8% SDMB: 7.9%
ENTP U.S.: 3.2% SDMB: 9.1%
ENFP U.S.: 8.1% SDMB: 2.4%
ENFJ U.S.: 2.4% SDMB: 2.4%

ISTJ U.S.: 11.6% SDMB: 5.4%
ISTP U.S.: 5.4% SDMB: 1.2%
ISFP U.S.: 8.8% SDMB: 1.2%
ISFJ U.S.: 13.8% SDMB: 2.4%

INTJ U.S.: 2.1% SDMB: 28.0%
INTP U.S.: 3.3% SDMB: 7.3%
INFP U.S.: 4.3% SDMB: 15.2%
INFJ U.S.: 1.5% SDMB: 8.5%

The INFP/INFJ split probably went the way it did because there’s more INFPs than INFJs in the general population. Also, I think INFPs like the Myers-Briggs. An INFP made it.

Usually an INFJ

Sooo. What kind of experiments are you running on your little charges?

Don’t feel too alone. I’m INFJ too :slight_smile:

Haha - absolutely. My husband is ENTP and you’ve just described him in a nutshell.
