Personality Test

So, some of you know that I am very interested in personalities. How they differ, how people in the same family are the same and how they are different. My mother-in-law posted a link to a good, free online personality test. It is based on the Meyers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), which can only be taken through a professional counselor, etc. This was a pretty good one though, even if it is not as thorough and complete as the MBTI. I thought it might be enjoyable for some of you to take it. Ok, ok, the real reason I want you to take it, is so you will tell me what type you are, and I can know a little more about you, and understand you better. Yes, some of you are very difficult to understand!! If you are curious, I tested as an INFJ. If you don't know what that is, just type INFJ into Google, and all sorts of profiles will come up. Anyway, here is a link that I thought would be fun :http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp Don't forget to report back!

I just took the test and came out with ISFJ.

I can't remember the difference between the S and the N. I was ESFP. I think I have tested as and ENFP before.

Tammy, I think you should guess what everyone is and then arrange to have someone test us while on the family reunion.

I am an INFP.

I am ISTJ.. this one has me figured out especially when it made these comments.. Classics, antiques, and heirlooms are especially valued, having achieved a certain time-honored status—Inspectors prefer the old-fashioned to the newfangled every time. Even on vacation, Inspectors tend not to be attracted by exotic foods, beverages, or locales.. Dave C

If I remember right, I'm an INTJ. Interesting that we haven't had any duplicate personality types yet.

Hey, Tammy. Does INFJ feel more comfortable than the ENFP that you thought you were? Greg, I thought you were an F. I'm not very good at guessing what people are. I'm an ENFP and I just love this stuff.

Greg said...

I think I have tested F before, but this time I came out fairly strongly T. Maybe it was just my mood when I answered the questions.

Your Dad is INTP, I am an INFP like, yes! April! We also took the Mate test and are very close in all four aspects that were considered. Interesting... That was fun, thanks! And Todd's comment was funny though not without merit...Nancy

Hi Tammy That was fun. I tested the same as I did 20 years ago ENFP.I think I am less that way then I was then. The story of the library is hilarious! Probably wasn't at the time. We leave to go see Katherine, Sarah and Shane in the morning. Love G'ma

Sarah said...

Lately I've been thinking I am a lot like Deanna in many ways.... well, I finally got around to doing the test and I am ISFJ too!

Shane said...

I'm an ISTJ. I always hope when I take these tests that I'll come out an ESPN but it never works out... I know, bad joke.

Deanna said...

That's really funny Sarah, because I just took the sports car personality test that Todd posted and turned out the same one as you on that one too!! Great minds think alike!

Hi Tammy,

I finally took the test. There are several questions I would have answered "yes and no" but anyway I came out ISFJ.
