I am INFP.

And talk about it, post results and how you feel about them or how you feel about the theory of the test.

 

[spaekle]

I test pretty consistently as an INTP, with INTJ popping up every once in a while (but I think the former suits me a lot better).

Perceiving tends to be the weakest on me (hence why I occasionally test as J instead), whereas I'm usually close to 100% on introverted and thinking. Intuition is around 75% usually.

iirc from previous threads on this there are a lot of INTPs here.

I'm supposedly ISFP. I think it fits pretty well.

Though not aggressive? Uh, yeah I am.

 

[blazheirio889]

INFP. Very accurate, I'd say. Especially after reading that article about INFPs. Nearly everything fit to a T.

 

[Tailsy]

I'm consistently an ESFP, "The Performer". It fits me pretty well!

ESFPs love people, and everybody loves an ESFP. One of their greatest gifts is their general acceptance of everyone. They are upbeat and enthusiastic, and genuinely like almost everybody. An ESFP is unfailingly warm and generous with their friends, and they generally treat everyone as a friend. However, once crossed, an ESFP is likely to make a very strong and stubborn judgement against the person who crossed them. They are capable of deep dislike in such a situation.

EIFP for me.

Extroverted (E) 86.67% Introverted (I) 13.33%
Intuitive (N) 78.13% Sensing (S) 21.88%
Feeling (F) 72.97% Thinking (T) 27.03%
Perceiving (P) 74.19% Judging (J) 25.81%

I am, apparently:

outgoing, social, disorganized, easily talked into doing silly things, spontaneous, wild and crazy, acts without thinking, good at getting people to have fun, pleasure seeking, irresponsible, physically affectionate, risk taker, thrill seeker, likely to have or want a tattoo, adventurous, unprepared, attention seeking, hyperactive, irrational, loves crowds, rule breaker, prone to losing things, seductive, easily distracted, open, revealing, comfortable in unfamiliar situations, attracted to strange things, non punctual, likes to stand out, likes to try new things, fun seeker, unconventional, energetic, impulsive, empathetic, dangerous, loving, attachment prone, prone to fantasy

It's all true, but I've bolded the ones that are especially so.

I was very amused by some of the job recommendations; I particularly enjoy the suggestions of broadcaster/dj, bartender, record store owner and massage therapist.

I guess it fits I dunno, I'm bad at analyzing myself.

does this mean i solve practical problems involving mean motherhubbards Sounds right. Maybe a bit less master of tools in some parts but very right.

Although ISFP fits a mite better looking at the fourth link and the summaries.

lol, that site gives me things like assassin, mortician, and egyptologist. Along with more typical things like science careers and a couple of art ones.

I like science and all, but it's more a fun thing to learn about than anything else for me. Couldn't see it being my entire life. Art is where it's at. :v

... Meh.

It could be because I'm sleep-deprived, but that made me laugh way too hard XD

 

[Bluberry Bat]

I took this only a few days ago, actually. INFP was my result, I suppose I'm not the most original around here, but it seems about as close a description to me as they could get.

When it comes to the mundane details of life maintenance, INFPs are typically completely unaware of such things. They might go for long periods without noticing a stain on the carpet, but carefully and meticulously brush a speck of dust off of their project booklet.

Yeeeeah :V

 

[#1 bro]

ENTP. I did this like two years ago and got the same thing, so it's probably kind of accurate I guess.

This seems to fit me well. While for many issues I value logic more, at other times emotion is more important. As well, I am extremely good with languages.

 

[Minnow]

As I said, INFP is me.

Generally thoughtful and considerate, INFPs are good listeners and put people at ease. Although they may be reserved in expressing emotion, they have a very deep well of caring and are genuinely interested in understanding people. This sincerity is sensed by others, making the INFP a valued friend and confidante. An INFP can be quite warm with people he or she knows well.

INFPs do not like conflict, and go to great lengths to avoid it. If they must face it, they will always approach it from the perspective of their feelings. In conflict situations, INFPs place little importance on who is right and who is wrong. They focus on the way that the conflict makes them feel, and indeed don't really care whether or not they're right. They don't want to feel badly. This trait sometimes makes them appear irrational and illogical in conflict situations. On the other hand, INFPs make very good mediators, and are typically good at solving other people's conflicts, because they intuitively understand people's perspectives and feelings, and genuinely want to help them.

INFPs are flexible and laid-back, until one of their values is violated. In the face of their value system being threatened, INFPs can become aggressive defenders, fighting passionately for their cause. When an INFP has adopted a project or job which they're interested in, it usually becomes a "cause" for them. Although they are not detail-oriented individuals, they will cover every possible detail with determination and vigor when working for their "cause".

Very true.

INFPs have very high standards and are perfectionists. Consequently, they are usually hard on themselves, and don't give themselves enough credit. INFPs may have problems working on a project in a group, because their standards are likely to be higher than other members' of the group. In group situations, they may have a "control" problem. The INFP needs to work on balancing their high ideals with the requirements of every day living. Without resolving this conflict, they will never be happy with themselves, and they may become confused and paralyzed about what to do with their lives.

INFPs are usually talented writers. They may be awkard and uncomfortable with expressing themselves verbally, but have a wonderful ability to define and express what they're feeling on paper.

Even more so true.

Yay, careers:

Writers
Counselors / Social Workers
Teachers / Professors
Psychologists
Psychiatrists
Musicians

I could see me doing any of these.

Also, this page shows famous people that have been such types. Here's mine, and I'm sure you can navigate to yours if you feel the need to do so.

INFP...hm...

 

[Dragonclaw]

While not that specific test, I have taken it on a different site. I'm an INTP, and some of the jobs look interesting. Odd that I share personality with Albert Einstein and Brian Griffin o.o

 

[Minish]

INFJ. Sometimes typed as an INFP, it really depends on whether the questions are more "do you have a structured mind" rather than "are you messy", to figure out the difference between J and P. Because I am quite messy. XD

Using my old favourite result from Personal DNA:

Introverted: 79%
Intuitive: 79%
Feeling: 68%
Judging: 63%

Although Counselors/INFJs tend to be private, sensitive people, and are not generally visible leaders, they nevertheless work quite intensely with those close to them, quietly exerting their influence behind the scenes..."

This is so, so true. I never thought I'd find that part of me written down so easily. X3 I've always wondered whether me exerting my influence 'behind the scenes' is kind of manipulative, but tbh I do it to make things smoother and more peaceful, so yeah.
