Myers-Briggs Personality Test // Your MBTI
 
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a model which categorises people's personalities into 16 distinct types, each type being a combination of four dichotomies expressed in C. G. Jung's personality theories:

Extroversion or Introversion
Sensing or iNtuition
Thinking or Feeling
Judging or Perceiving

There are lots of great websites which offer MBTI Personality Tests and insights based on your results, but my favourite one is this - https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test

It's all really quite interesting stuff. Devote 10-15 minutes to take the test and then read through your results and the analysis of your results.

What personality type are you? Do you agree/disagree with the analysis of your personality type? How does this all make you feel - do you think it accurately describes you?

I've also added a poll to this thread for a quick look of PC's MBTI types.

Oh, it's this thing. I always get INTJ on this thing, which I guess is fairly accurate...to a point. I've never really categorized my personality like that, and other people often have a completely different view of me, so I wonder sometimes. It's a good enough starting point for others if they want a clue on my self-perception, though...which I guess is all these things really are.

Interestin.... Well I know what kind of beast I am Lel

I've got a good friend of mine who has worked as an esteemed clinical psychologist at my uni and in the field for a number of years and has now retired. He got me to take this test two times and both times I got INTJ. Seems pretty cool and I'd say it matches my personality quite well. :)

Are there particular parts of the analysis that you agree with/disagree with?


As for me, I'm a strong INFP. I really resonate with a lot of my analysis, particularly the fact that I strive for harmony and am very (perhaps too) idealistic, and have a lot of passion and energy for things that capture my attention. The career paths of INFPs really resonate with me as well - from a child I've always wanted to be an author, and over the last couple years that's changed into a passion for creating art in general, and storytelling.

"To find a career that resonates with INFPs' values though, that's more than just a job, sometimes it's just what needs to be done." This line really sums up my views in a sentence. I find myself drawn to things based on their alignment to my personal values, and struggle to work towards goals that I cannot personally connect with. This is also why I'm drawn to and excel in particular jobs compared to other types of jobs, and looking at my resume you can definitely see a trend in the types of jobs I've had all being very focused on social impact.

The one line summary provided for my type (INFP - The Mediator) hits the nail on the head: "Always eager to help a good cause" 100% describes me (for better or for worse - honestly I do bite off more than I can chew a lot of the time but at the end of the day I just love to be able to help).

asdlfhaskdf could talk about these sort of things for hours but I want to hear everyone else's thoughts first :P

i got INFJ. the first little fact about it is that it is extremely rare, and only makes up around 1% of the population, which i think is pretty cool. i'm supposed to be all about helping other people (which is mostly true). also, famous INFJs include MLK, Mother Teresa, and Nelson Mandela. i feel special.

the descriptions on this site were so accurate for the most part that it was creepy

maccrash February 27th, 2016 7:24 AM

I always get INFP on this. it fits me to a tee.

Belinda February 27th, 2016 9:58 AM

I got INFP personality and I'm pretty sure I've gotten the same results the last time I took it.

Margot February 27th, 2016 10:14 AM

I've taken the test quite a few times and I always get the same answer: INFJ.

Cay February 27th, 2016 10:59 AM

I got ENFJ, which describes me pretty well! Happy with my results and I actually got around to taking this, everyone's always been asking me for my personality type.

Universe February 27th, 2016 3:28 PM

i'm also in the apparent huddle of INFJs. the descriptions are really deep and resonate with me so that's very cool.

Esper February 27th, 2016 3:42 PM

Whenever I took this I got INTP until the last time when I got ISTP and that honestly seems much closer to how I am: Hands-on learner, not expressing emotion much, fair play is important, bored easily.

Seeing what other people get on the test helps me realize how exhausting and confusing E and F people's actions are for me.

天 (Caine) February 27th, 2016 3:48 PM

ISFJ representing.

Thepowaofhax February 27th, 2016 3:53 PM

ISTJ. It makes sense tbh, since I'm not very social and I try to not make an argument without using sources for fact-checking.

Alex February 27th, 2016 4:21 PM

I am INFJ

moon February 27th, 2016 4:25 PM

ENFJ here! But usually I get ENFP, maybe I changed when I got a real job or something, or maybe I just answered something differently this time c:

Sothis February 27th, 2016 4:41 PM

ISFP here! It suits me pretty well.

Winter February 27th, 2016 6:27 PM

INTJ. Confirmed by the official questionnaire though all those online copycats give me the same results no matter how many times I take them.

Somewhere_ February 27th, 2016 7:35 PM

INFP-T

More or less I guess. There are some things I disagree with though.

Aslan February 27th, 2016 9:58 PM

I got ENFP-A! I've always been given ENFP in these tests but it was really interesting to see that I've become 20% more extroverted compared to previous tests? That was pretty cool since I've been working a lot on improving my confidence. :]

Aurora February 28th, 2016 1:48 AM

I'm an ISFJ. Even though I don't normally condone things such as lumping seven billion unique personalities into 16 defined clumps (or any attempt to turn many shades of grey into a few pre-defined hues), I must say that ISFJ matches me quite well.

Electricbluewolf February 28th, 2016 2:20 AM

ENFJ

Only had one neutral answer so it wasn't that bad.

I like how they have ENFJ fictional characters, cute

My results always tend to vary with this test. This time I got INFJ.

A lot of it seems to fit me pretty well, but as usual there are many things that don't. But what do you expect? It's not like everyone falls perfectly into these sixteen personality types. The world would be a lot simpler if they did.

Flowerchild February 28th, 2016 11:08 PM

The site has awarded me with this lovely character.
Apparently I'm an ENTP/"Debater".
I got something similar on a test I took a while ago and I can't remember if it's the exact same one. It seems to fit me pretty well though.
I'm fairly closely balanced between Extroversion and Introversion, as well as Thinking vs Feeling, whereas in every other field there's no competition.

AlphaTangoFoxtrot February 29th, 2016 12:55 AM

I got INFP-T. Absolutely no narrow margins either haha the narrowest margin in the results was 66/34 Feeling/Thinking. I'm apparently 99/1 Prospecting/Judging haha
