Personality type?

[MollyMalone]

ENFJ (or what 16Personalities calls Protagonist) -- same result as in years gone by from the full-blown Myers Briggs Type Inventory & then the Keirsey Temperament Sorter, whose ENFJ is dubbed the Teacher-Idealist.

I have a terrible time taking the Meyers-Briggs - I can't answer the questions! I think I'm an INFP on MB. But I think my education, professional training, and age has changed me.

I wonder if we share the same kind of problem on these kinds of "tests." I always find myself thinking, "Doesn't partly agree actually mean you disagree more than you agree? So why isn't it on the disagree side of the range?"

You should have seen one of the assessment tools used by the career transition coach I worked with 10 years ago! It was reeeally long; a goodly number of the questions "forced" you to pick between two activities, two milieus, two whatevers & often, both choices were things I really enjoy for different reasons, would pick one on some days, but the other at other times. I did like the section where you ranked various items on lists because I didn't feel so "hemmed in" there. I don't now remember the name of that tool, but it was more thorough than the MBTI and Keirsey, and sussed out more nuances/complexities. So when the multi-page, single-spaced report came back from California, I thought it how it "nailed" me was almost creepily uncanny.

Executive, with:

Extroverted 62%
Observant 69%
Thinking 77%
Judging 71%
Assertive 79%

But I think they should have asked if you have contractors (not) working on your house, because I think they should have adjusted for my mood today....

I am also a mediator!

Guess we can be crazy cat ladies, with doormat tendencies, together.

ISFJ-T

Seems I've been ISFJ for a long time even though over the years I feel like I have become more extroverted...I still need my alone time.

Scandi, the only appropriate personality type for one with contractors (not) working in one's house is B1TC-H.

Hmm. I'm a bit confused on the enneegram test.
You are most likely a type 9.
Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 5w6.
It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

I guess I'm a mixture of a few. 9 was my highest, 5 was second highest. Reading them, I sound more like a 5 lol.

 

[YadaYadaYada]

I'm a 6w5. Pretty much agree with that.

Revel in your uniqueness. You are unquantifiable.

more likely just conflicting/vague answers LOL. But I'll go with unquantifiably unique

Oh goodie! I know how to do that one!

When I did such a test about 14 years ago, I was ENFJ, now I am ESTJ according to this test.

INTJ-A "The Architect"
Introverted - 76%
Intuitive - 57%
Thinking - 58%
Judging - 68%
Assertive - 61%

"Architects form just two percent of the population, and women of this personality type are especially rare, forming just 0.8% of the population – it is often a challenge for them to find like-minded individuals who are able to keep up with their relentless intellectualism and chess-like maneuvering. People with the Architect personality type are imaginative yet decisive, ambitious yet private, amazingly curious, but they do not squander their energy."

Yup, sounds like me.

ok I was bored lol
It wont be any more accurate than the last dozen times but it kills time.

Logician (INTP-a)
Introverted 100%
Intuitive 72%
Thinking 93%
Assertive 57%

Which is funny because I think the limiting factor on humans is logic.
All great advances have been achieved by throwing logic out.
