I've tested as ESFJ, ESTJ, and ENFJ. No biggie.

You strike me as an ENFP, Pure.

I remember you saying that you'd tested as ENFx.

I actually think I am a J. Last time I took a test, I scored this:

Your Type is
ESFJ
Extraverted Sensing Feeling Judging
Strength of the preferences %
89 12 25 67


You are:

* very expressed extravert
* slightly expressed sensing personality
* moderately expressed feeling personality
* distinctively expressed judging personality


S/N and F/T are pretty close there.

You are close in some interesting areas, Pure_Mercury.

Like you, I tend to borderwalk between types; I'm probably more of an apparent ENTP in real life than INTJ.

the 8 function test is a lot more reliable

Do you think so? The first time I took it, it said I was an ISFP.

I think the test tells you which function you're focusing on/using/prioritizing when you're taking the test.

i thought it was because the functions we use determine our type

Well yes, that is true. But if I were to use this test as the basis of determining my type, my type would be changing throughout my life. (actually, I don't necessarily have a problem with that theory either ;-).

I have been heavily Fi-focused the past year or so, so that's why I came out ISFP that one time, and most of the rest of the time INFP.

Had I taken the test when I was 24/25, I am pretty sure Ti would have been the highest, because I was really focused on that at the time, so would have responded to the Ti-slanted questions in a stronger way.

So for me, I don't think my 'testing' with Fi at the highest means a whole lot, and I don't think it means I'm therefore Fi-dominant. It just means I'm dabbling in that function more of late.
