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?

Light MBTI Discussion opinions on this chart?

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 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.

MBTI Meme Biased and perhaps somewhat accurate MBTI Typing if you need to:

1 Upvotes

Think or Feel? If you thought about this answer, youre a thinker, or just an overthinking feeler xxFx, but if you instinctively answered Feel then well done you are an Fe and Fi user.

Execute or plan? Youre told to do your bedroom by your mother, how do you answer:

1) I’ll do it later
2) No (conflict follows)
3) Why dont you do it? (conflict and discipline follows)
4) I dont want to (discipline follows)

If 1, perhaps a thinker or a sensor who is lazy, probably on their phone doomscrolling or texting.
If 2, an Se who is rebellious and dislikes being told what to do or a thinker who is engrossed in whatever they are doing
If 3, who are you? Cute lil Se user? Definitely not Te, as you respect hierarchy. You only say this as a joke, if the parent is a joker ofc.
If 4, Se or Fi user. Fe users may do it to make the other one pleased, while Te obeys orders or gets lost in their own activity. Ti may forget they were even told, or forget their room existed. Possibly also the ones to shove their stuff in one corner for later time.

When at work, do you do things as told or prefer more effective methods? If first one, you are Si, Fe, Te or Fi user. If you choose to keep talking than to do as youre told, Se, Ne or Fe user. If you decide to keep working regardless, congrats youre an Si or Te user. If you do as told but still prefer youre own method of working because it is efficient, well done youre a Te&Ni user.

This mostly serves as a joke, I would add more but genuinely had my fun already.

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

15 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?

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!

Celebrity/Character Could anyone have a stab at typing the actor Oliver Chris for me?

2 Upvotes

Interview with him here

Oliver Chris is an English actor well-known for his roles in everything from The Office and Green Wing to The Crown and Rivals. I was watching some of these press interviews for Rivals earlier and thought he had an interesting energy and wondered what his type might be. I can have a guess myself too but I wanted to see other opinions.

I know it's tough to type celebrities when we're only ever seeing them at work, and especially based off one interview (I'd be happy to provide more but I know it's a big ask just to ask you to watch one if it's a celebrity you don't know!) But if you could have a guess based on what we're seeing here at least I'd be grateful!

Thanks :)

Survey / Poll / Question What MBTI mystype as xNTP's?

2 Upvotes

To me what other types could supposedly analyze well by seeing connections and all consequences but is not a Ne user and uses symbolism? Part of me woudl say ISTP's. Then xSxJ types, especially one's with Te, ISxJ's and one's with devloepd Ne. To me ISTP's could see how A leads to B leads to F (alhtough they may not see that A leads to B or C or B or C leading to F). THe mystype happens when peopel isnist aht Sensors can't be analytical.

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.

What might be a good arc of an INTP who has never been annoyed or sarcastic with ANY human because they say, and I quote, "getting annoyed of anyone comes from the premise of unconscious bias and incomplete awareness when evaluating and attempting to solve problems or build models"? 😏
