Totally agree with this about me though:
The INTJ's interest in dealing with the world is to make decisions, express judgments, and put everything that they encounter into an understandable and rational system. Consequently, they are quick to express judgments. Often they have very evolved intuitions, and are convinced that they are right about things. Unless they complement their intuitive understanding with a well-developed ability to express their insights, they may find themselves frequently misunderstood. In these cases, INTJs tend to blame misunderstandings on the limitations of the other party, rather than on their own difficulty in expressing themselves. This tendency may cause the INTJ to dismiss others input too quickly, and to become generally arrogant and elitist.
But I realize that I am misunderstood, and I think I have TL to thank for that.

Another INTJ here. I got INFJ before though, Feeling and Thinking is very conflicting for me.
very expressed introvert 100% !
moderately expressed intuitive personality 25%
moderately expressed thinking personality 44%
slightly expressed judging personality 11%

I tested ENTP twice during my undergrad, and I've tested INTP twice since I started grad school. Lol I guess grad school has taken its toll on my social tendencies

ENFP, same as a year ago
This is infact facinating as it hits for me atleast
|
My gf is totally an ENFP and that's exactly what INTJ are compatible with. But the shitty thing about it that it mentions that INTJ can easily drop a relationship if it's gone south and get over it quickly, but have trouble sometimes doing it.
And likewise the ENFP can sometimes get stuck in a relationship that is bad because it is their purpose to make it work.

Wow, how interesting. On the statistics link it shows that INTJ is the second lowest personality type expressed (2-4%) and yet here on TL 46% (currently) are scored as INTJ, myself included. I guess this site, and most likely Starcraft as well, seems to attract these type of people.

this is pretty much pseudoscience
But beside that point, you cannot objectively answer the questions of the questionnaire due to bias and differences between self perception and actual behavior. SEE FORER EFFECT.

Any psychology professor will say the Myers-Briggs test is a piece of crap but it is the perfect start to those who are interested in psychology.

My annoyance merely stems from you plebeians seemingly taking this Myer-Briggs test seriously. It is my goal to illuminate, to remove the shackles of ignorance from my fellow TLers.
Those who are genuinely interested in psychology should be interested in Science, not bullshit. Psych gets a bad rap for this very reason.

You are: INTJ
* moderately expressed introvert 44
* moderately expressed intuitive personality 38
* very expressed thinking personality 88
* moderately expressed judging personality 56
Told me I should work in software development.. and I do. Hooray.
I think the best line is:
"Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. :-)" YES GOD YES.
|
I had to take this test professionally and had a psychiatrist give me the results. This test is basically just to give a bit of a skeleton to who you are.
I've been told i'm a very strong INTJ.

What a terribly designed questionnaire.
The questions are extremely vague. This means the subjected is expected to know which type of action he/she does most often off the top of their head. A lot of decisions are made subconsciously based on a worked out thought pattern, without deciding on the spot whether it's clear-cut "planned out" or "on the go". Hence people will probably think of a vivid, or a recent situation in which they can be sure they chose "a over b" (according to them), ignoring many other situations in which they have made different decisions that contribute to their overall personality. Before taking this test you were probably doing something else, not reviewing the last few years of your life.
Many questions repeat with different wording. So, what? With differently worded questions I guess they are trying to stimulate different memories of various situations to try and cover statistically large enough data set to properly compile a personality type. It works for the first 2 or 3 questions. After that it becomes redundant, the subject will just repeat his/her previous answer. Half of the test becomes completely pointless.
The questions have cookie cutter answers. It's like if your friends and you took a "Are you a badass?" test to see who is the biggest badass. If the multiple choice answers have things like "A) I eat rusted nails or B) I sleep with pink ponies", you are obviously going to choose A because that's what you want to be perceived as, even if it's not true. Same thing here, if your idol is of a certain personality type, you might subconsciously lean towards answers that describe that personality. If you are trying to convert from a bookworm to a party animal, partying 3-4 times a year may be a huge accomplishment for you relative to your previous self. So you may chose adjectives like "impulsive" instead of "calculating", because that is what you now want to be perceived as. Regardless if during the rest of the year you write letters to editors complaining about a mistake in a nuclear physics textbook.
Character types themselves certainly have merit to them, seeing as they are created based on our own definitions of behavioural traits that are most visible to us. However this test is absolutely dreadful; too many inaccuracies are accumulated throughout. A test "what would you do in this situation?" with subtle multiple choice answers would be so much more accurate.

I read all type descriptions and it really is ESFP that matches my personality.

I'm an INTJ as well. And it was creepy reading this because of how true it is.
