didnt we this one a month ago?

Yeah, but this one is going to have a poll. A would have done it last night but my Dad kicked me off just as I finishing. So I figured I'd post it and then add the poll.

EDIT: dang. Does anyone know how one can edit your thread to add a poll? I'm an incompetent INTJ who is getting ready to go to my advanced school.

 

[ArneHD]

INTP, don't know how seriously I take the test though.

 

[Fifty]

Is there any actual use for it?

Just the type of thing a damned ENTP would say.

Spoiler :

There's the use! Instead of replying to things now I can just brand someone as wrong because of their personality type! HAHA! GO PERSONALITYTYPEISM!

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

I was an iNTJ. A mastermind.

edit: why did I even post in this thread?

I'm ESTJ, whatever that is. It's a bunch of percentages that don't really mean anything.

I'm apparently an ISTJ which sounds about 60% right, from the description...

This is actually uncannily accurate, considering it's a broad test with broad results, I would struggle to find a lot to add to the description at the end. I'd say I'm more perceptive than given credit for here, but that's about it. Oh and I'm not to bothered about being admired, but everyone likes to be liked a bit. And since I've known many of my friends for more than 20 years, I don't tend to socialise alot outside of my close friends. The bolded part is especially accurate, although I only usually target pointless beaureacracy

* very expressed intuitive personality
* moderately expressed feeling personality
* slightly expressed perceiving personality

Spoiler :

[The following comes partially from the archetype, but mostly from my own dealings with ENFPs.]

General: ENFPs are both "idea"-people and "people"-people, who see everyone and everything as part of an often bizarre cosmic whole. They want to both help (at least, their own definition of "help") and be liked and admired by other people, on bo th an individual and a humanitarian level. They are interested in new ideas on principle, but ultimately discard most of them for one reason or another.

Social/Personal Relationships: ENFPs have a great deal of zany charm, which can ingratiate them to the more stodgy types in spite of their unconventionality. They are outgoing, fun, and genuinely like people. As SOs/mates they are warm, affectionate (l ots of PDA), and disconcertingly spontaneous. However, attention span in relationships can be short; ENFPs are easily intrigued and distracted by new friends and acquaintances, forgetting about the older ones for long stretches at a time. Less mature ENFPs may need to feel they are the center of attention all the time, to reassure them that everyone thinks they're a wonderful and fascinating person.

ENFPs often have strong, if unconvential, convictions on various issues related to their Cosmic View. They usually try to use their social skills and contacts to persuade people gently of the rightness of these views; his sometimes results in their negle cting their nearest and dearest while flitting around trying to save the world.
Work Environment: ENFPs are pleasant, easygoing, and usually fun to work with. They come up with great ideas, and are a major asset in brainstorming sessions. Followthrough tends to be a problem, however; they tend to get bored quickly, especially if a newer, more interesting project comes along. They also tend to be procrastinators, both about meeting hard deadlines and about performing any small, uninteresting tasks that they've been assigned. ENFPs are at their most useful when working in a group w ith a J or two to take up the slack.

ENFPs hate bureaucracy, both in principle and in practice; they will always make a point of launching one of their crusades against some aspect of it.

 

[Toasty]

ENFP (champion).

I found it to be fairly accurate, personally.

INTJ.

Introverted: 22% ("slightly expressed introvert")
Intuitive: 38% ("moderately expressed intuitive personality")
Thinking: 25% ("moderately expressed thinking personality")
Judging: 67% ("distinctively expressed judging personality")

Compare to William F. Buckley and Ayn Rand.

 

[shortguy]

INTJ. This isn't what I got last time I did one of these (ISTP, I think), so I'm pretty sure these are complete bunk.

 

[toh6wy]

ISTJ. I got 33% introverted and 44% judging, but only 1% for the middle two. Hmm.

 

[Whomp]

The Myer-Briggs always seemed somewhat like pop-psychology horoscope to me.

Is there any actual use for it?

It can be very useful in business team building. You'd like to have pretty diverse attributes (depending on the job) instead of the same everything.

It helps to understand the people you're working with on their strengths and weaknesses. Having a "j" personality (organizer) on a team is very helpful when the rest of the team are "p"s (fly by the seat of your pants types).

I'm an ESTP btw.

As I've said before Jung used his ideas about personality as a tool, as a basis for discussion, the merit of this test, is in what you say about it, not what it reveals. I've seen some people say it's utterly wrong and go onto explain why, I then say, you've just proved the merit of this test, to get you to describe yourself in context with a test. Useful nay? Clever man was he not Jung?

So you do not see yourself as introverted, please tell me why?

Of the four aspects of strategic analysis and definition, it is marshalling or situational organizing role that reaches the highest development in Fieldmarshals. As this kind of role is practiced some contingency organizing is necessary, so that the second suit of the Fieldmarshal's intellect is devising contingency plans. Structural and functional engineering, though practiced in some degree in the course of organizational operations, tend to be not nearly as well developed and are soon outstripped by the rapidly growing skills in organizing. But it must be said that any kind of strategic exercize tends to bring added strength to engineering as well as organizing skills.

As the organizing capabilities the Fieldmarshal increase so does their desire to let others know about whatever has come of their organizational efforts. So they tend to take up a directive role in their social exchanges. On the other hand they have less and less desire, if they ever had any, to inform others.

Hardly more than two percent of the total population, the Fieldmarshals are bound to lead others, and from an early age they can be observed taking command of groups. In some cases, Fieldmarshals simply find themselves in charge of groups, and are mystified as to how this happened. But the reason is that Fieldmarshals have a strong natural urge to give structure and direction wherever they are -- to harness people in the field and to direct them to achieve distant goals. They resemble Supervisors in their tendency to establish plans for a task, enterprise, or organization, but Fieldmarshals search more for policy and goals than for regulations and procedures.

They cannot not build organizations, and cannot not push to implement their goals. When in charge of an organization, whether in the military, business, education, or government, Fieldmarshals more than any other type desire (and generally have the ability) to visualize where the organization is going, and they seem able to communicate that vision to others. Their organizational and coordinating skills tends to be highly developed, which means that they are likely to be good at systematizing, ordering priorities, generalizing, summarizing, at marshalling evidence, and at demonstrating their ideas. Their ability to organize, however, may be more highly developed than their ability to analyze, and the Fieldmarshal leader may need to turn to an Inventor or Architect to provide this kind of input.

Fieldmarshals will usually rise to positions of responsibility and enjoy being executives. They are tireless in their devotion to their jobs and can easily block out other areas of life for the sake of their work. Superb administrators in any field -- medicine, law, business, education, government, the military -- Fieldmarshals organize their units into smooth-functioning systems, planning in advance, keeping both short-term and long-range objectives well in mind. For the Fieldmarshals, there must always be a goal-directed reason for doing anything, and people's feelings usually are not sufficient reason. They prefer decisions to be based on impersonal data, want to work from well thought-out plans, like to use engineered operations -- and they expect others to follow suit. They are ever intent on reducing bureaucratic red tape, task redundancy, and aimless confusion in the workplace, and they are willing to dismiss employees who cannot get with the program and increase their efficiency. Although Fieldmarshals are tolerant of established procedures, they can and will abandon any procedure when it can be shown to be ineffective in accomplishing its goal. Fieldmarshals root out and reject ineffectiveness and inefficiency, and are impatient with repetition of error.
