Jung Myers typology test poll

Post Reply New Topic

I've always been an INFP- and in fact thought that that was the classic Aspie personality. Wrong again!

ENTJ is my husband. The Field Marshal. Seriously, he just took the test. Bill Gates, Napolean, Richard Nixon, Steve Martin, General Norman Schwarzkopf, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jim Carrey, David Letterman, Al gore, Margaret Thatcher, Whoopi Goldberg, Benny Goodman

Not a single extrovert in the bunch.

I took online tests for this many times and I sometimes scored INTJ.
I never score outside these two.
. . .same thing in Socionics.

I've taken the official version of this test twice and always came out with ENFJ (but the E is usually by a very narrow margin). This time I took it and got INFJ. Still though, here are my numbers:

I - 33 N- 25 F- 38 J- 56

It's not "I" by much. I switch back and forth in various situations, I think. Some people I know can't believe that I could be an I. On the other hand, there are others who would never believe in a million years that I might be an E. Meh.

Oh and the cool thing about infj's is that they are the counselors. And two people on the list are Ghandi and MLK Jr.

And ENFJ's are educators. So I got my undergrad in music ed, and now I'm in grad school for music therapy. Works for me.

ISTJ

I = 89
S = 50
T = 88
J = 56

I = 89
N = 31
T = 25
P = 44

I knew I would be INTP before I took the test. I'm always solidly INTP.

The lack of E's and F's makes sense, but it's interesting that there are more INTJ's here than INTP's, ISTP's, and ISTJ's.

What IS the difference between an introvert and an aspie?

It's the difference between merely not enjoying social activity and not being able to socialize. I don't think aspies are as introverted as they seem. I don't necessarily like being super shy and introverted, but I feel like it's difficult to relate to most people and this makes socializing both difficult and unrewarding. That's just the way it is, not really something I choose.

Also there are extroverted aspies, and I'm not sure the I and E mean quite the same thing as they do in general usage (?)

Yes, that's what Anbuend has said on my thread ( What is the difference..?). That the Introversion on here is not a correct definition , BUT I actually like this one cos its about a real reason why some people are I rather than E , which is different 'optimum--function-stimulus levels". That is that the I's brain is already so (happily) busy on internal data that it is quickly overwhelmed by much external input, whereas the E's brain is relatively "unoccupied" and craves outside stimulation to put it in optimum functioning condition. This "level" can change, after prolonged stress for instance it may descend , making a previous extrovert into an introvert until they recover. (?)and an introvert into an asperger , no no ... no .. into an introvert under serious pressure.

But the idea that an introvert has to be shy is inaccurate anyway. They simply usually prefer solitary activities.
The raging debate is about WHY!!As in could it be that they are actually aspergers? See my thread!

Neat, I'm going to read your thread, hadn't seen it yet.

I took this test twice and get two different results, the last one being Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging - INFJ

INTJ

There sure are a lot of these in the "aspie" realm.
Maybe i should of been a lawyer.
