Also I don't know how Bush could have won, I don't know anyone who voted for him )

You are lucky. I know lots who did; Many of whom are still proud of it and would vote for him again given the chance. (Mostly family members and people I know from high school and stuff; I think most of my more educated friends would be ashamed to admit voting for him even if they did.)

Today I scored: ENFP (But when I was a teen, and took it out of the book two time,s I was ENFJ--A month ago at a World Future Society Meeting I scored-- INFP--but on another test when the local austin forum did this--I scored IIFP--so I thought that it really depends on how the questions are asked, and what one's current life experiences are, that affect it--the book asks questions in a much more detailed way than that on-line quiz, makes me want to dig it out and try it again )

Here was the ENFP--which I like (but I liked all the ones I read that I've tested )

ENFPs--The Champion Idealists are abstract in thought and speech, cooperative in accomplishing their aims, and informative and expressive when relating with others. For Champions, nothing occurs which does not have some deep ethical significance, and this, coupled with their uncanny sense of the motivations of others, gives them a talent for seeing life as an exciting drama, pregnant with possibilities for both good and evil. This type is found in only about 3 percent of the general population, but they have great influence because of their extraordinary impact on others. Champions are inclined to go everywhere and look into everything that has to do with the advance of good and the retreat of evil in the world. They can't bear to miss out on what is going on around them; they must experience, first hand, all the significant social events that affect our lives. And then they are eager to relate the stories they've uncovered, hoping to disclose the "truth" of people and issues, and to advocate causes. This strong drive to unveil current events can make them tireless in conversing with others, like fountains that bubble and splash, spilling over their own words to get it all out.

My comments again, "Ahh... may I bubble and spill the possibilities of life extension to all " (now I really should stop chatting with you all on ImmInst, and spend time on reaching more of an 'all' )

[Shannon Vyff]

I think they may be taking that info from the book-- there is a lot more research out there, than just from on-line.

This is kind of funny, the first time I heard of this test was yesterday, I took it, and got my results back as an INTJ, then bam!... it's here.

Since I couldn't pull up my previous results, I retook it, and again scored as an INTJ
My areas are:

Introverted (89) Intuitive (62) Thinking (62) Judging (67)

Which is pretty close to the original, roughly a 5% difference overall considering I changed a few answers that I was 50/50 on...

The person who recommended the test to me was also an INTJ, I don't see how only 1% of the population is INTJ, most of the people I regard as close friends would be considered INTJs, but then again... there are a lot of people who I don't know, and maybe like-types tend to group together as others have pointed out here [huh]

I want to see this test posted on a self-help forum board... [sfty]

Intuition is definitely something I would agree is prominent with my personality, fairly accurate test.

INFJ 78/88/12/56

Though, the INTJ profile describes me pretty well, too, and I tend to value thinking(T) higher than feeling(F). I guess I have attributes of both because I'm very analitical as well as emotional.

Hmm, ESTJ 56 38 1 22

Don't really go along with the type synopsis although there are some correlations. I do have contradictory aspects of my personality which is common with "apparent" extroverts ie the outer social shell belying the disconnection from or denial of inner emotions or traits, and this can cause inconsistent answers when cross referenced on this style of test.

or perhaps I'm hungover...

INTP 67/75/25/78

Does this mean I can judge Zoolander?

Of the four aspects of strategic analysis and definition, it is the structural engineering role -- architechtonics -- that reaches the highest development in these Rationals, and it is for this reason they are aptly called the "Architects." Their major interest is in figuring out structure, build, configuration -- the spatiality of things.

As the engineering capabilities the Architects increase so does their desire to let others know about whatever has come of their engineering efforts. So they tend to take up an accomodating role in their social exchanges. On the other hand they have less and less desire, if they ever had any, to direct the activities of others. Only when forced to by circumstance do they allow themselves to take charge of activities, and they exit the role as soon as they can without injuring the enterprise.

The Architects' distant goal is always to rearrange the environment somehow, to shape, to construct, to devise, whether it be buildings, institutions, enterprises, or theories. They look upon the world -- natural and civil -- as little more than raw material to be reshaped according to their design, as a formless stone for their hammer and chisel. Ayn Rand, master of the Rational character, describes this characteristic in the architect Howard Roark, her protagonist in The Fountainhead:

    He was looking at the granite. He did not laugh as his eyes stopped in awareness of the earth around him. His face was like a law of nature-a thing one could not question, alter or implore. It had high cheekbones over gaunt, hollow cheeks; gray eyes, cold and steady; a contemptuous mouth, shut tight, the mouth of an executioner or a saint. He looked at the granite. To be cut, he thought, and made into walls. He looked at a tree. To be split and made into rafters. He looked at a streak of rust on the stone and thought of iron ore under the ground. To be melted and to emerge as girders against the sky. These rocks, he thought, are here for me; waiting for the drill, the dynamite and my voice; waiting to be split, ripped, pounded, reborn, waiting for the shape my hands will give to them. [The Fountainhead, pp 15-16]

Many regard this attitude as arrogant, and Architects are likely, especially in their later years, after finding out that most others are faking an understanding of the laws of nature, to think of themselves as the prime movers who must pit themselves against nature and society in an endless struggle to define ends clearly and adopt whatever means that promise success. If this is arrogance, then at least it is not vanity, and without question it has driven the design engineers to take the lead in molding the structure of civilization.

Albert Einstein as the iconic Rational is an Architect

Thomas Jefferson and Robert Rosen are examples of the Architect Rationals

It's quite amusing really, just the difference of one characteristic and one is alone among the pariah. I mean christ, isn't there anyone else who spends half the day thinking on how to make people read books? Or how to make the morning newspaper write about transhumanism?
The world is clay, I am a potter, heh.

And agreed, quite everyone of internet junkies are INT-oriented, so no use wondering about it. Also, the reason why some of you think that INT personalities are more numerous than what is said, is because people of with similar personalities tend to flock together and into similar social circles. Universities and the like. Though I wouldn't know since I have no friends (people don't like me).

[deadstar711]

I've taken the test a few times and it's either ISFP or INFP. I will take it again when I have time and post the numbers.

I never thought of myself as extroverted or judgemental. I actually thought I was more of a thinker but look at the strength of that!!

Although I love social environments with friends and performing etc, I am much more introvert.

The personality test on facebook was more accurate! (except for the mock 'disorder' it gives you at the end - it said that 'I think I have OCD which I definatly dont and dont think so!), but the percentages it gave me in terms of openess, agreeableness, extrovertion etc was much more spot on!!

Okay I took it again and changed a few of the answers (which I feel I am sort of either way on so those answers still reflect 'me') and got a more accurate result which I think describes me much better

I would say that it is roughly 85% accurate.

The problem with me is that if I would have answered this test 2 years ago, it would have had a different outcome. If I would have taken it 8 years ago, once again another outcome.

I have some traits that are long-lasting and/or probably permanent, but I change a lot on how I am and go about life.

I think a lot of it has to do with what drugs (good or bad) that I am into at the time.

Am I in a health freak stage or a self-destruct phase? I have been flopping back and forth from these two extremes since I was 12 years old. I just can't seem to stick with either or. In the last 4 years, it has been leaning more and more towards the health freak stage. It is almost like I have multiple personalities haha.

Introverted Intuitive Thinking Judging (INTJ) 100/88/12/22

I don't think that's entirely accurate (the percentage values). I'm not that introverted, and I have a much higher preference for thought than a 12%.

[platypus]

ENTP here.

[FunkOdyssey]

I'm an INTJ. While only representing 1% of the population at large, it looks like we make up about 75% of this board. Apparently there is something about the INTJ personality that draws us to immortalism (probably because we are too intelligent, analytical and rational to buy into religion). [thumb]

[krillin]

Cripes, am I the only ISTJ here? When I was in engineering school we were the largest group, accounting for 25%.

Edit: Took the test and I'm still (barely) ISTJ. 67/1/38/78 You INTJs have almost assimilated me. Peer pressure is real.

[forever freedom]

Time to bring the topic back to life! I wish this topic was made in a Poll format so we would have a better clue...

I got INTJ too. Introverted 78, Intuitive 12, Thinking 88, Judging 78.


I don't think the test is biased to turn out as INTJ, after much thought and time spent on this forum i really think that one thing that most immortalists have in common is their independence of thought. This very NTish. And since most extroverts won't likely be on the net for much long, at least not wandering through forums when they will rather socialize in real life or wander around facebook, myspace and the like, no wonder we have so many INTJs around.

[DukeNukem]

Been taking this test for 20 years, always ENTP, a description I think fits me perfectly.

I would expect to see more E's on a public board, since I would think the I's are less inclined to post. Clearly I misjudged that call -- most everyone here is an I!

If you see the biggest MBTI forums, they are the INTJ, INTP, and INFP forums. Just google each of these types combined with "forum" and you'll see.

Why do you think that I's wouldn't be inclined to post? I think quite the contrary; Es are less inclined to stay on these boards and are more inclined on being part of activities with more human contact, be it on websites such as facebook or just in real life.
