OT – Myers Briggs Personality Profile

[NotCranky]

I took the test twice.
Once I answered truthfully: ISTP, none of the scores were out of the 50% range.

The second time I answered based on my opinion of what someone with the most ideal response would choose:
ESTP

Thanks for putting this together. What do you think Captain Archer is?? ESTJ?

It’s hard to say. If you google it, you can find at least five different threads/web sites with five different opinions. I’m inclined to say ESTP. He’s considerably less rigid and protocol-driven than Janeway (ESTJ).

[quote=Eugene][quote]For housing (during the bubble), I would translate that to: do you give credence to the fact that home prices are going up (S), or do you try to understand what causalities are going on under the hood (N)?[/quote]

That is really F versus T. And no one doubts that you’re a T. 🙂 S versus N refers to concreteness vs. abstractness, and to practical applications (such as this site) vs. theoretical musings.

From Wikipedia:

“Sensing and intuition are the information-gathering (perceiving) functions. They describe how new information is understood and interpreted. Individuals who prefer sensing are more likely to trust information that is in the present, tangible and concrete: that is, information that can be understood by the five senses. They tend to distrust hunches, which seem to come “out of nowhere.”They prefer to look for details and facts. For them, the meaning is in the data. On the other hand, those who prefer intuition tend to trust information that is more abstract or theoretical, that can be associated with other information (either remembered or discovered by seeking a wider context or pattern). They may be more interested in future possibilities. They tend to trust those flashes of insight that seem to bubble up from the unconscious mind. The meaning is in how the data relates to the pattern or theory.”[/quote]

I don’t agree that it is just F vs T… I knew many T’s who were totally bought into the housing bubble. 🙂

I think you are being too literal about the existence of the word “data” in that description… I see as more nuanced, ie, do you tend to believe your own lying eyes, or do you prefer to fit things into a theoretical model. (If the latter, data is of course an important input, hence the site tagline, but it’s not really in the “believing your own senses above all” sense.)

Again, I’m no expert but that’s been my take from reading about this stuff. Whatever the reason or explanation, I definitely come up as an N…
