Vat ees my type?

[InaF3157]

I broke the cognitive processes machine :doh: Today looks like typing season, so let me throw my hat into the ring.
I got these results a few weeks back, but I am fairly certain I would get another result if the wind should so much as blow in a different direction, because I am not that extroverted.


Cognitive Process Level of Development (Preference, Skill and Frequency of Use)

extraverted Sensing (Se) ****************************** (30.7)
good use
introverted Sensing (Si) ************************ (24.5)
average use
extraverted Intuiting (Ne) ************************************* (37.5)
excellent use
introverted Intuiting (Ni) **************************** (28.5)
average use
extraverted Thinking (Te) *************************************** (39.8)
excellent use
introverted Thinking (Ti) ********************************** (34.8)
good use
extraverted Feeling (Fe) ******************** (20.2)
limited use
introverted Feeling (Fi) *********************** (23.4)
limited use

I am fully prepared to hear that I have MPD. It's okay. I won't cry if that is the diagnosis.
Aaaaand..... go!

Id say ENTJ, followed by ENTP.

My results usually fall around the same lines yours do.

[InaF3157]

Based on the test? The site told me ENTP, followed by ENTJ/INTP.

[MetalWounds]

Your Ni is lower, but Se and Fi are both used, respectively. Additionally ENTJs will be the least apparently extroverted of the NT types.

[InaF3157]

Extroverted misanthrope for the win! I do hate humanity so.

I would choose between ENTP and ENTJ based on a few profile descriptions and self-insight rather than small differences in cognitive functions.

Of course if you're extremely inclined to choose just based on the cognitive functions test, I'd go with ENTJ! :D

The thing is, I totally don't trust these results. I would have to be the most introverted extrovert ever. I hate making snap decisions, and prefer doing my own thing to bossing other people around.

Hmm... then you should expand your profile reading to include INTP and INTJ. :)

What types have you tested as on the actual MBTI or other similar tests?

Do you think those are accurate and why or why not?

If you were to go through and pick your type preference letters based only on what you want to be and what you think accurately reflects you, what would you pick? (I found this to be very helpful when I was trying to determine my type.)

I question the motives of your posts. That makes me think you're an ENTP.

:cry: Why?

Javo, the only thing I am sure of is the NT, I think more INTx than ENTx though.

A lot of ENTX types think themselves to be introverted because they aren't interested in the things that non-NTs are.

[colmena]

:cry: Why?

I'm not sure if I can explain it. Very little feeling comes across, and you seem like an extroverted lone-ranger.

I'm eager to find out more about ENTPs, though. Would you tell us more about yourself? How do you interact with others? How do you think when you are alone?

[colmena]

If you find this offensive, I'm probably wrong.

I find very little offensive, dear. Just preoccupied at the moment. I will bore/ regale you folk when I get a minute.

lol.
I agree

[InaF3157]

:cry: but how? and why? I just seem shady?

[InaF3157]

Now with a poll. :banana:

Thanks, Ivy.

[booyalab]

:cry: but how? and why? I just seem shady?

ENTPs seem in a perpetual state of indecision about whether to be serious or goofy.

Not to be confused with ENFPs, who seem in a perpetual state of indecision about whether to be goofy or offended.

[Stigmatic]

You only think you are more introverted because ENTPs are the most introverted extroverts.

[MacGuffin]

I'm going with ENTP just based on a vague reading of your posts.

It'd help if you talked about how you live your life and what you do.

[whatever]

;) Your results are almost exactly the same as mine (only I'm pretty much lacking in Fi :dry:)

I'd say ENTP would be a possibility.

I hate humanity a good portion of the time; I work with the public. A snap decision for me means that I've sat in indecision so long that someone forces me to decide something at the last minute and I tend to randomly choose something :doh:

I should NOT become president.

[InaF3157]

ENTPs seem in a perpetual state of indecision about whether to be serious or goofy..

busted. :blush: That is pretty true actually. I gather from your NF vote despite your posts that you suffer the same affliction

*gets stage fright*
Uh . . . I think a post from another thread would give you some idea:


How would you rate your overall level of curiosity?
(apathetic, very low, low, average, high, very high, extreme etc.)
Very high.

What sort of things are you most curious about?
(how do you see curiosity manifesting itself in you)
Interrelation of ideas, Archetypes, The idea-Action bridge, Roots [of words, thoughts, attitudes], Personas, History, Philosophy, Philology, Mythology, Music, Violence, The sex-violence connection, Power, Evil, Beauty, Pathology, Biology, and now MBTI :D

Do you keep your curiosities to yourself or share them with others by asking questions?
Almost entirely to myself but I ask many questions. I have weirded people out one time too many and alienated a few.


I pursue these curiosities through reading (a lot - and anything I can get my hands on), movies, music, some people-watching, puzzling out people's behavior, doing real puzzles, like word or number puzzles and my own oddities. I prefer to do these in solitude. Friends have always complained that I go AWOL too often, and do not call enough, etc.

Otherwise, I spend a lot of time digging for information, and often end up a long way off from the goal I had in mind when I started the research, which I hear is an ENTP thing. I always lose track of time when I am on these hunts. I am as interested in creating theoretical frameworks to explain things as I am in getting to the weaknesses in a framework and destroying it. I am also obsessed with improving inefficiencies, and think I do that more than "invent", as ENTPs are said to, even if the improvements look like inventions. Also, unlike ENTPs in the descriptions I have read, I am not usually attention or status-seeking, and do not care about people's opinions unless these opinions can affect me going about my business in any way. If they do not, I do not give a damn, a trait that has got me into trouble in the past.

[MacGuffin]

Still sound like ENTP to me.

Many ENTPs aren't status-seekers or attention whores.
