Introverted 100%
Sensing 84%
Thinking 84%
Judging 68%

ISTJ - The "Examiner"
Temperament: SJ (Protector)
Primary Function: Introverted Sensing
Population: 8.5% (10.5% male, 6.5% female)




"ISTJs are often called inspectors. They have a keen sense of right and wrong, especially in their area of interest and/or responsibility. They are noted for devotion to duty. Punctuality is a watchword of the ISTJ. The secretary, clerk, or business(wo)man by whom others set their clocks is likely to be an ISTJ."
- ISTJ Profile (TypeLogic)

"ISTJs are very loyal, faithful, and dependable. They place great importance on honesty and integrity. They are "good citizens" who can be depended on to do the right thing for their families and communities. While they generally take things very seriously, they also usually have an offbeat sense of humor and can be a lot of fun - especially at family or work-related gatherings."



I voted INTP by mistake :-/ if some mod can correct this, please do :P.

No can do, sorry :-P

Maybe the next INTP who goes to vote can go ISTJ instead.

Do you guys think children can take the Myers Briggs?

My 8-year-old was diagnosed with A/S this week. I wonder how early the Myers Briggs personality test can be administered. It's fascinating that the majority who responded to this post were INTJs. Perhaps if I discovery my child's makeup, that will further help in my understanding of him and how to communicate with and help him.

Very interesting ... after my last post, I googled the question on whether kids can take the test. As a parent, you take the test on their behalf. It's abbreviated (They leave out Thinking/Feeling on it, which is interesting).

Based on my answers about him, he's an ENP. I'll have to look into this some more!

Thanks for this convo thread -- it was a really good one.

You're missing a letter there, either F or T.

Hi there,
Actually ... no ... when they test children for this, the T and F are missing, because until age 13, children are unable to distinguish the preferences between thinking and feeling.

Even more interesting is that for children ages 2 to 4, they only score 2 letters -- E/I or S/N -- because younger children also are not to the level to distinguish J/P preferences.

Interesting stuff.

I was unaware of that, that is kind of interesting. Thanks. I guess certain functions don't kick in until later development.

What do all those words mean on the poll? How do I figure out which personality type I have?

Fascinating stuff here. I took that test years ago and felt it was the best metric for personality. I could guess people I knew fairly well, which made me more confident in the validity of the test.

I've never seen so many INTJs in one place before. I've never had a friend who tested INTJ, although all 3 of my closest friends in life have been INTPs.

I was fairly close to being INTP, the numbers were roughly

I = 100
N = 75
T = 75
J = 20

INFJ here, although my J and P are only 2 percentages off, so sometimes I can test with a P instead. Just depends on how I read the questions.

INTP here. It seems there's a lot of INTJ and INTPs on WP.

INTP was my last test result, but I get ISTP and ISTJ rather often, and here's why:
100% Introverted, 0% Extroverted
58% Intuitive, 42% Sensing
84% Thinking, 16% Feeling
53% Perceiving, 47% Judging

I'm on the borders of N/S, P/J.

My mood tends to affect the way I vote, but INTP is the most accurate description of me, ISTP a close second, and ISTJ barely sounds like me.

INTJ (Almost INTP, which I have gotten other times)
Introverted (I) 84.38% Extroverted (E) 15.63%
Intuitive (N) 52.5% Sensing (S) 47.5%
Thinking (T) 60% Feeling (F) 40%
Judging (J) 55.56% Perceiving (P) 44.44%

Supposedly 2% of the population, but 40% of this poll - a 2000% difference. :)

A while ago I've taken a test that described greatly my own psychological characteristics. Around the same time I also found info concerning asperger. After reading a bit about asperger I thought it described me pretty well, even though at my age now (25) I got pretty well-resolved socially, as much as I could be in my opinion at least.

It turns out that the personality type I got in the test I mentioned is pretty rare (1.5% population) and so I thought there could be some relation between the two things. Actually I have even some doubt if I'm just an INTJ (which is the personality I got) wich has somewhat impaired social skills or really an asperger.

So I'm curious if other people with asperger would have some trend in that personality type. I wonder that at the very least they would be overall more introverted than extroverted?

The link of the test is this: "mypersonality . info" (had to post the link like this as I can't yet full links, sorry..)

Beyond my curiosity, I also think this test helped me greatly in understanding the nature of my own identity. I figured that although I belong to a rare "class", there is a class in which I fit and in that sense it made me more normal. Also knowing what type I am, there is a lot of info I could check in the internet about the expected difficulties that I should have and how to deal with them.

I hope some people get to do the test and post their results, and also that it helps you providing insights at your lifes. :)


I took a different assessment, and got ENTJ, but looking at the details, I just barely tipped the scales to the E side.
