Light MBTI Discussion opinions on this chart?

Post image
4 Upvotes

obviously not that rigorous of a discussion as we know that typology doesn’t necessarily imply causation for levels of income, and that the study most likely used mistypes. however i was inclined to think Te users would overall just be the highest earners, but this chart seems to show that any of the four EXTX types have an advantage salary wise, even though EXTP are not Te valuing. is there a reason for this?

Survey / Poll / Question What are the most accurate means to find my mbti?

4 Upvotes

The title pretty much sums it up lol.

I just don't trust myself well enough to take a quiz about myself if that makes sense. I'm not 100% sure if I am self aware enough... I've typically resulted an INFP in the past and have developed into INFJ in more recent years.

I've always felt kind of disconnected from the results. On a surface level they were accurate in regards to surface level traits but in the deeper dive I was more like "errr... I dunno so much". I understand you're not supposed to fit your type to a T, but for those results being my type I wasn't too sold that I really connected with them as much as I see other people connect to theirs.

If someone could somehow assess me like a one-on-one discussion that'd be something I'd value/trust more than myself lolol. If anything like that or anything similar exists, let me knowww. I trust this community because I figure the people in it are more educated than I am. I'm just an MBTI enjoyer lol

good day!

Light MBTI Discussion MBTI is flawed but not totally useless - anyone agree?

Upvotes

MBTI isn't the most scientific theory of personality, but it still describes individual differences between people fairly accurately. Even ignoring sites like 16 Personalities that just give you a Big 5 test with MBTI labels.
No theory of personality is perfect, there are many ways to describe people, so even if MBTI isn't the best theory out there, having another slightly different way to describe people is useful, right?

This is a meme from boo app, I think, I don’t know if the Ni doms are the wrong way round because I’m currently mistyping myself as INFJ but I’m not a hard worker at all, I think that INTJ is more of a hard worker, I know it is stereotypical but..l

Survey / Poll / Question How do you figure out your cognitive functions?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been reading through descriptions of all of the cognitive functions and I keep switching back and forth between which ones I think I display the most. I’ve tried taking online tests to be pointed in the right direction but the percentages between each function is always around 50/50. They all sound the same to me honestly. Like, “you perceive the world using your senses” or “you perceive the world by making connections (but to make those connections you have to perceive the world using your senses)” clearly I’m exaggerating, but that’s pretty much how all of it sounds to me😭 Does anyone have any tips on how to better conceptualize the cognitive functions. I think my main issue is that I’m overthinking.

Light MBTI Discussion Do You Feel Like Your Child Function Is Your Biggest Need/Deepest Insecurity?

21 Upvotes

While I was trying to figure out which of two types I am, I came across the idea that my child function might explain why I never feel intelligent enough.

Even though the people around me constantly tell me I'm smart, I still feel like I'm in a never ending pursuit of knowledge, research, and learning. I have a persistent fear of not knowing enough.

That's what my child function looks like, what does yours look like?

Light MBTI Discussion Sometimes I wonder what the golden pair actually is

9 Upvotes

How did you guys got the picture or understanding about the golden pair, I am not so sure where this theory actually come from but on an online people mostly talking on romantic relationships way.

But for myself that I browse searching what I got is Golden pair, silver pair or pair theory more likes between combine 16types per 16 there are some unusual combine and unique that born to be the pair theory but separate the meaning I got.

For example golden pair is talk about pair between their shadow cognitive function that mean to be compliments but in same picture that not necessarily opposite attract directly but more likes opposite admiration such as ENTP-INTJ but the romantic relationship seem more likely to fit with sliver pair that mean by opposite complement so we mostly may see a lot of romantic mentioned about INTJ-ENFP more than INTJ-ENTP(INTJ actual shadow Cognitive function type?)or some similar case such as INFJ/ENTP or ENTJ/INFP but you guys don’t need to take it seriously that mostly my personal observations.

The sliver pair description that make different from golden pair to be more directly with romantic is complementary on each weak cognitive function and help each other on strength that the other could complement similar to how male/female relationships stereotype work likes male view straight on women who gentle that may opposite with them that could make them left the gentleness with the women and women may view analysis on male beside something that opposite from them in stereotype way that she is gentle maybe the tough could make different beside he may be kind inside but his straightness may make her feel safe in the way that her gentle may handle with conflict not very well.

So to me golden pair may more likes partner that mean friendship or your mind homie who really well to watch your back and do the impossible together and sliver pair seem most close with meaning of romantic relationship.

/actually you guys don’t need to be that serious when two people have story with each other romantic feelings could possibly happened in many relationships so even in theory I did heard somewhere too that the golden-pair is actually the pair with weak opposite complement likes for INTJ is ENFP not ENTP the shadow types so for myself I don’t really sure which one is reliable source too.
So feel free to spread your thoughts guy.

Survey / Poll / Question how much do you ‘relate’ to each function?

1 Upvotes

ignore your stack!

for me, i guess it goes ti = ne > fi > si > te > ni > fe > se? might not make much sense but in my head it does! can’t really explain how or why with actual words but i thought about it a lot.

Light MBTI Discussion What’s your MBTI and what’s your personal (unserious) idea of heaven?

7 Upvotes

I’m an INFP and my idea of heaven is a conference room with a lot of like-minded people where we just gab and gab and gab about our shared interests and have (polite) debates and affirm each other.

All with unlimited coffee and snacks.

And we all retire to our houses (one house per person in Paradise) that look like we’re in the suburbs.

And that’s like our only job: to gab and be nice to each other and expand each others’ minds.

Compensated for with coffee and housing.

How about you guys??

I have an INFP bf and I feel like I clash with him constantly somehow, so I'm wondering if there's any type I would theoretically get along with more naturally, or what is it that makes our personalities clash and I cannot change but need to take a different approach towards it instead?

Not planning on leaving, just curious in general.

Looking for what master degree I should study for. I tend to ruminate throughout the entire day and have recently started daydreaming about the many possible career choice out there.

I just want to find a job I can stick with and not keep jumping from one thing to the other.

What jobs have you found comfort in as an INFJ?

Survey / Poll / Question Does anyone else feel like the 16 types are just... not enough? I don't think any type can capture someone like me

0 Upvotes

I know what the letters say about me. But really the more I sit with it, the more I feel like MBTI can't contain a person as fluid as me. Some days I'm introspective and artistic, other days I'm spontaneous, I have such a rich inner world, how can four letters capture that?

I feel like I'm several types blended into something this here framework just wasn't designed for. Maybe some people fit neatly into a type, and that's fine for them.I'm not trying to be different, I just am.

Was anyone else disappointed in this way?

Survey / Poll / Question Ti vs. Te

6 Upvotes

someone was asked how they would describe Ti and Te in an oversimplified way. their answer was Ti asks “does that make sense to me” and Te says “does that work”. someone else said Ti wants to know how things work and why they work like that whereas Te just wants them to f*cking work. assuming that is right (and please correct their description if not), i kind of relate to both things.

here’s how my mind works, i guess:

‘this thing needs to be done. first of all, do i think i should do that thing? am i okay with it, or do i think someone else should do instead? does it even truly need to be done? yeah, i’m okay with it. now let me figure out the most practical way to do it so i can do it quickly but efficiently. i just want to get the job done, so stop talking to me or i’ll get a headache. if you disagree with my way of doing this, i will provide arguments as to why it should be done that way. if you provide a counter argument and i realize your way is faster, i might do it your way... unless i am used to doing this my way and feel safer knowing it will definitely work. great, i finished the thing. now that it’s done... why do things even work that way? how did my actions work? i want to understand everything about what i just did and how i did it.’

then i proceed to wonder and sometimes actually do research on how things work and it goes so far back i end up questioning life itself and plenty of things we literally have no answers for. i get frustrated if there is no answer and i get even more frustrated it it has a answer that just doesn’t make logical sense to me even if i understand it’s just a damn fact. anyway! i ask a lot of questions, always have. teachers either loved me for being so interested or hated me for not letting them get to the end of the lecture because i was asking questions every five minutes.

so... what’s that? Te? Ti? some other function entirely and nothing to do with Te or Ti?

Light MBTI Discussion does the mbti of parents affect the mbti of their child?

5 Upvotes

i, (ESFP), am the child of an ISFP dad and an ENFJ (unhealthy) mother. my whole life, my mom has had full custody of me and my dad hangs out with me on sundays.

recently, by talking with the closest person in my life (an INTJ), i raised my eyebrow at the realization that her dad is an ENTJ, and her mom (who is also unhealthy) is ALSO an ENFJ.

i thought it might be important to share. this also might just be a coincidence between me and her, as we tend to be two sides of the same coin.

Light MBTI Discussion Does ISFJ 4w3 exist

1 Upvotes

Just curious since ISFJ 4w3 seems to be a rare combination. There's characters of ISFJ 3w4 and ISTJ 4w3 on PDB, but not much ISFJ 4w3

If an ISFJ 4w3 does exist, what do you think they'd be like?
