I suppose it is. 🙂 I could have sworn I copied and pasted it. 🙁

Thanks for the link, my type rocks!

Famous ENTJs:
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Richard M. Nixon

Two of the most (in)famous presidents in modern history. Perhaps I should move back to the states and run for president in a few years. There are only a handful of people I would need to make "disappear" first.

i'm very suspicious about these kind of things, but I have to admit that the typelogic characterisation is around 98% spot on. the only thing I can disagree with is "INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless." that idea makes me very uncomfortable.

it's so accu ...[text shortened]... checked a couple of others, and they did feel very distant from what I feel at ease with.
There is a difference to strike between horroscopes and this.....

e.g .... If you do not like socialising (parties, soforth) it stands to reason that you would like you spend your time doing something else.

Unlike horroscopes these ask you questions --- while they are unspecific, they do "map out" paterns, like/dislikes, etc.

For Example:-

Do you gain any personal satitisfaction/pleasure from winning a game of luck? (e.g snakes and ladders)

Yes No.

** repeated the question, this time replacing "luck" with "Skill". (eg. Chess, Kung Fu bout)



If you don't get any satisifaction from "luck-based" games its unlikely you would make a habbit out of playing them....therefore, I presume, those that said no to luck games would prefer to play skill games (whatever that skill maybe)

if after a 100 questions we can establish basic things such as that, to a limited degree, these tests maybe reliable. (assuming we all awnsered honestly and understood every question perfectly)

Not jungs classification.
Using the dms4 classification,after 6 months on the site and reading the forumn etc.
My thinking would be. People on this site fit more into the scihizoid or paranoid catagories.
Mind you i come across quite a lot of anti socials as well.

The INTJ profile was pretty accurate for me. I also read a few of the others and didnt identify with them at all.

INTP (which I got on another test) fits better than INTJ (which I got on this one, at least this time), although INTJ isn't far off either.

From the INTP description:

"Precise about their descriptions, INTPs will often correct others (or be sorely tempted to) if the shade of meaning is a bit off. While annoying to the less concise, this fine discrimination ability gives INTPs so inclined a natural advantage as, for example, grammarians and linguists."

INTP

Can't remember the exact scores -- but P/J was marginal.

EDIT: I'm talking real-world test, obviously. Haven't tried the online one.
