Anybody ever take the Myers Briggs?

[fleabert]

I'm an ENFP...in case you were wondering...

http://www.personalitypage.com/ENFP.html (this is me)

http://bsm.securesites.com/indicate.html (free test, don't know if they are actually giving the real MB test though)

http://www.myersbriggs.org/ (the official MB site, which does not recommend taking the test without someone to help you interpret the results, they also have an online version, administered by trained reps who give feedback while you take it- interesting)

[Huckebein the Raven]

1. I'm INFJ

http://www.personalitypage.com/INFJ.html

[fleabert]

5. you are rare, only 1% of pop. is INFJ!

[xmas74]

12. That's odd-so am I.

And I had my results done years ago by a professional who stated that it was the rarest of the types.

[fleabert]

15. self delete- dupe

[fleabert]

16. perhaps we need a poll?

might be interesting to find out if there is a pervading type here...

I have found that nighttime polls sink like bricks, so maybe tomorrow in the afternoon I'll put one up... (at least MY polls sink...:-))

BTW: here's a tidbit from the descriptions...sounds like a liberal to me! "They need to feel as if everything they do in their lives is in sync with their strong value systems - with what they believe to be right." and " Sensitive and compassionate towards people" :)

[xmas74]

18. That would be a good idea.

They had a poll at a Christianity site that I used to lurk and there was a pervailing type of person there (and most of them were not RWers). It might be interesting to find out what kind of person lurks around here.

[fleabert]

123. HEY EVERYONE! Here's the poll I made today!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=2827082#2827132

check it out! (make sure to click the link in the message if you don't see your type on the first one, not enough choice options on the poll form)

[Huckebein the Raven]

28. I've taken the test more than once so I'm pretty sure I'm INFJ

but INTJ sounds like me too.

:shrug:

[xmas74]

33. Same here.

I have taken it a few times and it is always the same response. It's just that there are very few of them out there, that's what suprised me.

[yvr girl]

80. I'm an INFP as well

The I and the P were really strong. My scores for T & F were the same, but you are an F when that occurs. I was only marginally an N.

[JohnKleeb]

21. Dude I think I was too

Well youre like me in many ways, Aspie, lefthanded, and other things too I guess.

[Huckebein the Raven]

29. Yeah I know. Interesting

[JohnKleeb]

31. Yeah

I have my meyers-briggs scores in my binder, I dont wanna lug it out now tho.

[JohnKleeb]

95. Wow MLK

I never would have thought of him as introverted.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

86. I'm INFJ also. My husband is INTJ. n/t

[mordarlar]

2. Hmm. Pretty much describes me.

[fleabert]

17. so, we'd eitther make great friends or irritate the shit out of each other

Right? :-) It goes either way with similar personalities, in my experience.

[mordarlar]

23. LOL. Too true. I irritate EVERYONE so don't take it personally. : )

[fleabert]

25. Me too! Maybe we would just laugh a lot. :-)

at each other!

[BamaBecky]

103. so which one are you mordarlar? n/t

[mordarlar]

110. I could not take the test. : (

[BamaBecky]

113. Ahhh......n/t

[mordarlar]

124. I just took it on another link and i am ENFP

Your Type is
ENFP
Extroverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving
Strength of the preferences %
44 62 50 56

[Radical Activist]

3. INFP

Joan of Ark, Eleanore Roosevelt type.

[fleabert]

6. we could hang out, but you might think I talk too much...

and I might talk more to make up for your not talking! :-) (that's how it is with most people and me, unless I run into another uber-extrovert, then we talk over each other!)

[Radical Activist]

9. How do you know I don't talk much?

Is that part of INFP's personality? I usually don't have a problem dating women who talk a lot because I'm not a big talker anyway. I'm the same way with friends. I don't mind listening as long as I get my word in when I need to.

[fleabert]

11. I am married to an introvert! I know! (and..see my edit)

he can talk my ear off if the mood strikes him, but baseline is very little talking. I know when he starts a conversation to pay attention because it's important to him. I, on the other hand, talk to myself about what I am doing - while I am doing it! He has learned when to tune me out and when to listen.

I also know to give him some space when he needs it, and that his need to be alone has nothing to do with me, or the state of our relationship. conversly, he knows that sometimes he has to talk to me about his feelings even though he doesn't want to, because I NEED it, don't want it, NEED it.

(If this were IRL, I would still be talking...)

edit: a quote from my type overview: ENFP's can be "Extremely intuitive and perceptive about people" :7

[LynzM]

67. INFP, too

I've taken it several times, and I'm borderline on the I/E part. But the descriptions for INFP fit me much better than those for ENFP, so that's what I'll go with. The first time I did it, and then read the descriptions, it was eerie how much they described me!

[fleabert]

112. me to, ENFP is spot on. nt

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

76. Me too

Shakespeare was an INFP

:)

[Radical Activist]

116. I did not know that

very cool. Are you a big issues activist too?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

119. Yes

:)

[SarahB]

91. And another one!

:D

[Radical Activist]

118. I'm not surprised you're an INFP

very cool :)

[BamaBecky]

104. Sheese me too!........n/t

[Radical Activist]

117. There should be a lot of us on DU

Its a good type for idealistic political types.

[3lefts]

4. Took it in grad school...

I doubt the online test would be similar. Be as honest as you can if you do get a chance to take it.

[fleabert]

10. I took it thru work. Honesty does get the best results,

and the test usually will needle out your personality anyway. It's a long test that doubles back on issues to really pin down your response.

Not perfect, but very interesting.

[xmas74]

13. I took it through a professional and I took the online test.

My results were still the same.

[murielm99]

43. I took it in grad school, too.

ENTJ.

I went back into my notes and looked it up.

I seem to remember that the test took awhile. I thought some of the questions were repetitive, and worded ambiguously enough to rule out gross dishonesty.

[pnorman]

7. INTP, and STRONGLY so.

I took the test several years ago at the suggestion of a friend (he gave me a copy of the original book). My major argument with him was the confidence he had in the assigning of hypothetical test scores to historical figures; many long gone. He too was INTP, although not as pronounced as myself.

pnorman

[fleabert]

14. :-)

I do wonder about the same thing, personal thoughts cannot be assumed based on recorded actions, IMO.

[pnorman]

20. INTP is referred to as "The Thinker".

Other sources refer to it as "The Architect". That isn't the way I had imagined myself. On the Political Compass test, mentioned on DU from time to time, I was pretty DEEP in the 3d Quadrant ("Left-Libertarian"). That's why I questioned that INTP label. Perhaps that 4x4 matrix (16 different character types) misses something.
pnorman

[fleabert]

24. I don't think I have inspired anyone lately...

I had no doubt I was an extrovert, but wouldn't call myself an "Inspirer", that was surprising. I scored as 'Moderately Liberal Liberaterian' the last time I took the Compass test, before the 2000 election. I have no doubt I am further left now.

[pnorman]

34. INTP is what I had intended to indicate.

Thanks for catching the typo. I was still within the time-limit for editing it, so I was spared several days of embarassment.

As for that B-M Test as well as the Political Compass one, the important thing to bear in mind is that none of those 16 (or 4) types should be considered inherently "good" or "bad".

pnorman

[fleabert]

37. that's what I figured, from the text, but wanted to be sure.

I don't normally call out typos, but figured you'd understand. :-)

These tests just tell you where you are at, at the given time, we all change and grow (I hope!).I would be very surprised if I changed in a couple of areas on the myers briggs (I am fond of my strong E) but not so much on others.

[serryjw]

27. I am also an ENTP

Truly a lawyer type!

ENTP (3.6%) of the population!

ENTP
We had 35 ENTPs volunteer their political affiliation. The breakdown is as follows:

Democrat - 23% (8/35)
Liberal - 20% (7/35)
Not Political - 20% (7/35)
Middle of the Road - 11% (4/35)
Republican - 9% (3/35)
Other - 9% (3/35)
Conservative - 3% (1/35)
Libertarian - 3% (1/35)

[fleabert]

32. Not surprising...

"Flexible and Diverse"

from the description on the site.

now I need to go look for my type and political affiliation...

[atommom]

83. Me too. I've gotten less "I" over the years, but the rest hasn't changed.

[TrogL]

8. I've the taken the official, costs money test

It merely confirmed what I already knew from online tests.

INTP with J tendencies.

[fleabert]

19. that's because you are

"Usually brilliant and ingenius"

[BamaBecky]

105. I paid for my test through a professional also...INFP...n/t

[sasquatch]

22. I am an INTJ

[fleabert]

26. You need to get more involved with the DNC, please!

"More so than any other personality type, INTJs are brilliant when it comes to grasping complex theories and applying them to problems to come up with long-term strategies."

you are a badass smartie pants, aren't you? I am impressed and a little intimidated. :-O

[sasquatch]

36. Have you ever heard R. Lee Ermey, Woody Hayes or Bobby Knight?

That's how'd I would talk to a meeting with the Senate Democrats because that's how I was raised. In fact I'll give you a sample.

"All right you walking, talking pile pig shits things are going to different around here. We know you have this heroin like addiction to losing and pissing off your voter base, well I'm the fucking Betty Ford clinic to help you kick your habit. You dumbasses are destroying this fucking country because your working bipartisanly with people that consider bipartisinship being the same as date rape. And I'm sick and fucking tired of watching you people trying to knock each other out so you can be the first to swallow GWB or Karl Rove's cock down your throat. So here's how it's going to be:
- We will vote against everyone of Bush's extreme ideological bills.
- We will stop all of his court appointments.
- We will not sell out unions, civil libertarians or any other liberal group so we can pick up "Red State voters" who don't exist.
- When we campaign we will attack our opponnets on personal levels and policy levels.

And anyone who doesn't like this I will gut you in the primaries and political career will be a footnote in history."

[fleabert]

40. Roar!

That might be just what the Senate Dems need. A good strong kick in the collective ass! (pun intended!)

I would love to stand next to you and say, 'YEAH! That's right! Ya motherfuckers! sit down and listen!' :-)

[Metatron]

30. I'm also an INTJ.

[fleabert]

35. that's almost the exact opposite of me, perhaps why I am intimidated

but am also intrigued by you...

[Wapsie B]

68. INTJ here!

Fellow masterminds.

[porkrind]

90. INTJ here also!

:)

[supernova]

70. INTJ here!

:hi:

We masterminds have to stick together, if we could ever stand being around other people. :silly:

[sasquatch]

109. Ain't that the truth

:hi:

[pnorman]

38. Hey fellers, let's DU this thread!

I just did so (the first time I've ever used that feature). Consider doing the same. I think it BELONGS on the front page. We're all dedicated activists. What better way could there be to introduce ourselves to each other, and figure out how we can best work together for our common goal?

pnorman

[fleabert]

39. I started thinking it would be neat to put it in my profile...

it is pretty accurate, and it helps to understand where someone is coming from...I'd love to know what everyone is! But then, I am an ENFP...

"ENFPs are warm and sociable people who are keenly in tune with other people's feelings and perspectives."

at least I try to be!

I have tried to figure out my role in politics beyond demonstrating and bitching, perhaps this will make it easier. I hadn't even thought of that until I read the description for the 'thinkers' in our group! I'll be glad to take on a mid-level role, you guys run the show!

[pnorman]

51. That's not a bad idea.

I just did that to my own profile. I also included the Political Compass result. I'n not a card-carrying Christian, nor am I a believer in Astrology. So DON'T ask me for my "sign". However, my birthday was announced here about three weeks ago, so do the math (heh heh).

pnorman

[BamaBecky]

106. I think that's a real good idea too!,,,n/t

[pnorman]

133. I see where this thread got FIVE votes,

thereby putting it in the "Greatest" category. (Five votes seems to be the highest number there).

Consider "bouncing" this thread by adding your own vote. Also consider doing what I did; adding this test along with the Political Compass one to your Personality File.

I don't think this is 'pseudo-science' although I agree with many that it CAN be distorted; consciously or otherwise. No matter how they try to describe the 16 archetypes in equally attractive terms, one or another will always be more attractive to some. I expect this would be dependent on the sort of peer pressure one is exposed to.

pnorman

[khashka]

41. Dozens of times

I'm an INFP.

Khash.

[fleabert]

42. Interesting, Lot's of introverts here tonight...

do you think it's an accurate assessment of your personality?


Lot's of introverts here tonight...hmmmm.

[khashka]

44. Probably a good assessment of who I am

But not who I wanna be. I'm introverted, easy going, empathetic and an all around nice guy. I wanna be a big nasty hairy macho SOB, which apparently just isn't going to happen.


Khash.

[fleabert]

46. women everywhere sigh in relief!

[khashka]

48. How cruel of you Fleabert

to mock my deepest desires! To make fun of my ambitions! To ridicule my yearnings!

As god is my witness, I will become a nasty brutal hairy macho bastard if only to spite you.

Khash.

[fleabert]

54. flea will bite your ass!

not to mock, but to celebrate your failure! Revel in it, failure can be very enriching.

[American in Asia]

49. Me too...

or an INFJ - I'm right in the middle on the P/J thing - took it four times - half J, half P.

[khashka]

50. Same with me

About 60% of the time I'm INFP and 40% INFJ. Depends on my mood, I guess.

My best friend is about 50/50 P/J.


Khash.

[EFerrari]

45. Guilty. But I have a terrible problem

When I take tests, I immediately know what they're after, and respond into their bullshi!t.

Now, MeyersBriggs is a very respectable resource, but to my labrat brain, it's just another maze. (Frustrating, when you'd just like some objective data.)

What would that make me. :)

[fleabert]

47. ida know? what did the test tell you?

did you take it alone online, or did someone admin. the test? I tend to do the same with magazine tests and silly stuff like that, but there is no outcome pushed in MB, IMO. I think it might be helpful if you had someone admin the test rather than take it by yourself...check out my link to myers briggs in the OP, or if you are in school, you can get it free at the career placement center (usually). I think the administrator might be the objective part you are looking for!

on edit: I hope nothing in my post is offensive, I am basically asking what your results were and if you agree with them, and suggesting you take it (if you are interested) with some feedback and interpretation, and not just online (if that's how you have taken it in the past). I got a confusing response from another poster about my post, and I just want to clarify. :hi:

[EFerrari]

87. Got it.

As I recall, I took it twice (once administered, once not) and got two different results. INF but not J but can't remember what the other choices are for the last element. Whatever they were, I drew two of them.

MB larned me that I can be pretty flexible and like to imagine stuff for a living. lol

:hi:

On edit: now I remember. INFP and INTP.

[khashka]

52. You're either an asshole or a psychologist.

I know the tests, I was trained to use and interpret them, so I know what they are testing for and play to the audience. I think any reasonably intelligent person figures out what's going on pretty quickly and five seconds later figures out how to manipulate it.

Which makes psych research a bloody nightmare! (But fun.)

Khash.

[fleabert]

53. ah. okay.

wait a minute...did you just call me an asshole? I am neither.

edited because I first wrote a serious reply to what is either sarcasm or serious, I am not sure. ?

[khashka]

55. The objectives of the test

are less important than the objectives of the test taker. In psych research you always have to watch out for people being what they want to be rather than what they are, or more often, being what they think the tester wants them to be. For example, if you gave me the MB and I thought you approved more of extroverts than introverts, I could easily score high as an extrovert (although that's not me at all). Why would I do that? Because you would be in a position of authority. And because like any other human being I would rather be liked than disliked This is a fairly minor effect if you're taking the test online or in a magazine for your own enjoyment. It becomes crucial when doing serious psychological research. More than a few studies have crashed and burned because they didn't take it into account.

We all like to think well of ourselves and we want other people to think well of us too. Normally, that doesn't require lying, just fudging the issue a little. And we all do it without even being aware of it. That's just life.

Me, I know the tests, the questions and how the answers are tabulated. I can score damn near anything on any "objective" personality test. It's like having the answers to your Math mid-term.

If you want to see how this works take the test again and answer the exact opposite of what you would honestly say. The result won't describe you at all but it might make you say "wow" and realize that even a few white lies can skew the results. Try answering some questions with brutal honesty and others with an eye to how your answers will be perceived.

Sweet dreams - go get some sleep :)

Khash

[fleabert]

114. I understand the conflict surrounding testing.

taking the test from an honest perspective and choosing to ignore any percieved bias should allow one to obtain a relatively accurate result. If you choose to manipulate that result because you understand the 'bones' of the test, that is up to you. Nothing is perfect, I take from the results what I can.

I made an effort to be honest with myself when taking the test, and came up with exceptionally accurate results, at least in my opinion. My friends agree.

you spent a lot of time educating me on testing issues, but didn't answer my question, did you call me an asshole? I am well rested now, and still wondering.

[EFerrari]

125. (Maybe the adjectives were directed my way

and as I've not been tested for them, can only believe that they were free advice.

lol

Good thread, very intersting. Thanks!
B.)

[fleabert]

131. yeah, maybe...perhaps i read it wrong...

you have a great attitude, you can't be an asshole!

[khashka]

134. No I did not

call you an asshole, fleabert. It was a bad attempt at a joke.

I like you! I wouldn't call you names!

Kiss and make up?

Khash.

[CindyDale]

71. You are probably introverted intuitive then

INTJ or INFJ

[EFerrari]

115. that's the thing, Cindy. Test out for both! Maybe "hyphenate"? n/t

[CindyDale]

122. The original types described by Jung had only dominant functions:

Extraverted sensing, extraverted intuition, extraverted feeling, extraverted thinking, introverted sensing, introverted intuition, introverted feeling, and introverted thinking, eight types in all.

Isabel Myers Briggs added the auxiliary functions based on what was sort of a hint at them in Jung's text. Not everyone feels they fit into this system very well though. Personally, although my dominant function definitely seems to be introverted intuition, I feel as much F as T.

edit: clarity

[fleabert]

132. very interesting...thanks for the background. nt

[BamaBecky]

107. very observant, intuitive and smart as heck...n/t

[Freebird12004]

56. This AM I'm an INTP

I don't think that'll change.

[Califooyah Operative]

57. i think i'm somewhere inbetween INTP and ISTP

either the thinker or the mechanic

[flvegan]

58. A couple years ago, at work, I'm an ENFJ, or so they say.

[toddaa]

59. Myers Briggs is bogus

At least, that's what this INTP thinks. It's nothing more than a tool used by employers to explain why they don't think you are suitable for promotion. Carl Jung was a fascinating guy, but he wasn't big on controlled studies. The whole thing is anecdotal.

[fleabert]

111. Interesting perspective, I like it myself, for personal reasons, not

professional. My work offered the test on a voluntary basis, and results were confidential. I don't know much about Jung's opinions, but I really like his dream work. It's more telling IMO to just get to know someone, but is difficult to get that in depth quickly. At least those who have taken it can give their results and then say whether or not they agree or disagree with the results. My results were right on target. :-)

[gollygee]

60. I'm an ENFP too!

:hi:

[fleabert]

121. There doesn't seem to be too many of us here, wonder why?

:toast: Howdy!

[patricia92243]

61. Highest percentages in all categories were Democrats. WHY are we not

winning elections?

[gollygee]

63. Highest percentages of categories or of people who have taken the test?

Maybe more Dems take the tests?

[Kathy in Cambridge]

62. ESTP

I have taken many MB tests. I'm also an Enneagram 7/8

[Lone_Star_Dem]

64. I've taken it twice and I'm INFP

I'd prefer to be ENFP but I am what I am. :)

[steve2470]

65. over my "testing lifetime", I have been an INFP, ESFJ, and now I'm a ISFJ

eom

[progmom]

66. I'm an INFP

Have been every time I have taken the test. :hi:

[steve2470]

72. Morning progmom!!!!!!!!!

stephen and I are having so much fun.

stephen

[progmom]

73. That's great!

You made it there safely! Yay!

[salin]

126. Bingo!

Mine changes each time - am very much in the middle on two of the four categories and close to the middle on the other two. Thus, I don't take the test to be as "conclusive" as many seem to believe.

[CindyDale]

69. INTJ

but I've never taken the test. I have read so much Myers-Briggs that I think my results would be corrupted in any case.

I think I might have very high F for an INTJ. I do consider values when making decisions, for example. Sometimes I have thought I might be INFJ, but I took a look at the INFJ email list. After I read the etiquette rules (which went on and on and on), I decided I must not be INFJ after all and probably couldn't even survive on the list. LOL

We had a thread about PT before the election. DU seems to have an abundance of INTJ, INFJ, INFP for some reason.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

74. I took it awhile ago and was INFP

Introverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving
100 38 75 22


i just retook it and it was the same result

[hyphenate]

77. I come straight down the middle

of both INFP and INTP. I think it depends on what day I take it, but at least the "i" "n" and "p" are consistent. Whether I'm "thinking" or "feeling" is a matter of interpretation.

[CindyDale]

79. There is a fairly big difference between INTP and INFP

because the judging function (T/F) is dominant in those types, unlike INTJ and INFJ in whom perception (N) is dominant in both.

Here are INFP and INTP descriptions:

http://www.typelogic.com/infp.html

http://www.typelogic.com/intp.html

Joe Butt, who wrote these descriptions, is INTP. His description of INTJ (my type) is among the best I've seen.

[EFerrari]

93. Thanks for posting these two descriptions.

In thinking about why I tested out by as infp & intp, it occurs to me that this MBs is a culturally produced artifact. So, people who grew up in other cultures, such as I did, will not fit neatly into one description.

Ex: My Latino culture doesn't privilege thought over feeling in the same way mainstream culture does. That, in part, accounts for my test waffling.

[BamaBecky]

78. I'm a INFP.....and they told me only 1% of the population was INFP ???n/t

[CindyDale]

81. Not on DU - INFP would tend to be liberal activist so it makes sense

[BamaBecky]

101. Really? No wonder I like it so much here..........n/t

[kaitykaity]

82. Another INTP with J tendencies here.

I took it years ago and came out a strong INTP, but
then took it later and came up with some J.

I don't know now.

[prairierose]

84. INFP here..everytime!

My uncle has been studying MB for 20 years so I've learned a lot about it. I found it very helpful when I was teaching Interpersonal communication.

I find it very helpful in dealing with other people and in dealing with me for that matter. We did find a very interesting piece of information when looking at family results. Both my mother & her brother are ESTJ. They are both married to I's. My aunt is INFP & my Dad is ISTJ. All 6 of the second generation are various iterations of introverts. That makes the 2 extroverts absolutely crazy!

[donco6]

85. I'm a Capricorn.

Which is about as valid and useful as the M-B.

[Wat_Tyler]

88. INFP

[BiggJawn]

89. Don't put much stock in such things.

They're tools for HR departments to say mumbo-jumbo like "Oh! this test shows you have a LSMFT personality, so you may as well put any dreams you had of Advancement away, because it ain't happening HERE...Now, if it had shown us that you are a 'Postal', we wouldn't even be having this talk, because the police would have cleared you out of here already..."

Stupid shit, like "Personality Profile" dating.

[Scout]

92. ISTJ or ESTJ, depending on how it's interpreted

the nitpicky one

94. Hey me too!

I've been tested 4 times and twice I've come out as I and twice I've come out as E but I'm so far off the scale on S and J it's almost frightening. Gee, wonder why I ended up in science and in QC??

96. ENTJ

but at work, my j is diminished...I'm more comfortable than I used to be with ambiguity.

I'm not surprised that many who have responded here are I's. Your energy is more internal, so writing makes you feel more comfortable and less tired from actually being around others.

97. Another INFP here -

I've taken the test 3 times in 20 years and have been INFP each time...

98. INFP

For such a rare type there seem to be a lot here. But then INFPs are more likely to take the test. Our programming department all took the online test last year at my suggestion and the results were interesting: the long-term project people where mostly Is and those who work on short-term projects where mostly Es. I later read an article in the Communications of the ACM about a small study showing that the success of small IT projects is more likely if the project manager is a different type than the developers, ie. Is should manage Es and vice versa.

99. I'm an INFJ, the rarest personality type.

Which means I'm weird, I guess. But I always knew that!

[all.of.me]

102. ENTP...............................n/t

ENTPs are less interested in developing plans of actions or making decisions than they are in generating possibilities and ideas. Following through on the implementation of an idea is usually a chore to the ENTP. For some ENTPs, this results in the habit of never finishing what they start. The ENTP who has not developed their Thinking process will have problems with jumping enthusiastically from idea to idea, without following through on their plans. The ENTP needs to take care to think through their ideas fully in order to take advantage of them.

Boy - this is a big problem for me...............

[fleabert]

120. you and me both friend! This is me to a T! Unless I am gung ho on an idea

I lose interest really fast and move on to the next thing. I love to delegate!

108. Another INTP here

When I read the description, it fit me perfectly.

[LeftyMom]

127. INFJ

INFJ
Seek meaning and connection in ideas, relationships, and material possessions. Want to understand what motivates people and are insightful about others. Conscientious and committed to their firm values. Develop a clear vision about how best to serve the common good. Organized and decisive in implementing their vision.

128. I'm hardcore INTP

[Dervill Crow]

129. ISTJ

At least that's what I was many years ago when I took the test. That was also when I was a Missouri Synod Lutheran Republican perfect mom.

Now that I've survived four teenagers and figured out NOBODY's perfect, I think I'll take the test again and see if anything besides my religion, politics, and overall view of the universe has changed. I do know I'm still introverted.

130. ENTJ

ENTJs are decisive. They see what needs to be done, and frequently assign roles to their fellows. Few other types can equal their ability to remain resolute in conflict, sending the valiant (and often leading the charge) into the mouth of hell. When challenged, the ENTJ may by reflex become argumentative. Alternatively (s)he may unleash an icy gaze that serves notice: the ENTJ is not one to be trifled with.

Thats right, don't mess with me :P
