Congratulations on the most boring post I have ever seen.

Nice post for the Meyers-Briggs nerds out there! Did you look at that big giant spreadsheet of leader traits when you came up with this?

I'm an INTJ, so I'd be interested to hear you thinking on how you bucketed that category.

Thanks!I saw a discussion on some forurms that said Augustus was INTJ as was Hannibal Barcca (I couldn't find anything on Dido). For the celts I kind guess but i at least took into account celtic history a bit. I think putting suleman up there was a typo because hes more of an extrovert.

And you were talking about this sheet right?

Introversion - Extraversion
Domestic: Citizen-enhancement vs. population increase
Foreign: Sensitiveness to Loyalty? and Talkativeness
Military: Restraint and Boldness

Intuition - Sensing
Domestic: Strategic weighting vs. scripted opening?
Foreign: Coalitionism and Transactionality
Military: Formation advancement vs. Focus-fire

Thinking - Feeling
Domestic: Reason-based policy, faith-based policy
Foreign: Isolationist policies, or doing everything to make the people happy (WLTKD)
Military: Militarism vs Nationalism?

Perceiving - Judging
AIs don't have inner/outer world distinction

It wouldn't be as balanced as one might thought. Leaders in Civ5 is arguably among the greatest leaders that their civilization/nation had with few exception. I will be hardly surprised if they're having many common traits.

Yea I noticed that too, most us presidents are similar types too

anyone know if any of these leaders were ISFPs?

The answers to these questions give you a personality type. The leaders would have to be alive and be able to take the test for them to get a personality.

In the first place, the MBTI inventory is kind of discredited as a personality typology theory. Its basic claims are just blown out by statistical fact. In claiming, for instance, that there are underlying "functions" with two extremes of each modality, this should imply that the observed tendencies of the expressions of those functions in people, would be bimodally distributed. And they just aren't, they're unimodally distributed.

A further claim , is that any validity the test does seem to have is just parasitic on the validity of Big Five inventories, which, as I have heard, is the only thing it is possible to test for in a self-report survey, and is always measured by such surveys, whether the test-giver is aware or not. Even MBTI extraversion is different from B5 theory.

Still, Jungian self-identification is fun. When is anything you say about yourself so simply true?
