Accurate Personality Test

I'm not usually one to advocate personality tests, most of them are bullshit. This is pretty good though. Based on the findings of Jung and others in his field, you are asked a series of questions and then scored on four dichotomies: introversion - extroversion, intuition - sense, thinking - feeling, and perceiving - judging. After scoring, each dichotomy is further defined as primary, secondary, tertiary and inferior function and based on your results these alternate between external and internal. Very interesting stuff - each distinct combination has its own ideal roles and they seem to be pretty accurate.

INTP - "Architect". Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. The world exists primarily to be understood. 3.3% of total population.

If you do take this test you should 1) google your four letter acronym. After reading several articles on INTPs I feel extremely enlightened, a lot of patterns in my life are better explained through personality type than any mental health diagnosis. 2) Post back on my blog under the comments section with your type. There are theories as to how specific types interact with eachother and it would be interesting to see if there's any truth to them.


Show more people my fucking blog. I put thought into these you bastards >_>

    Hey kid.

    I took one and got this as a result:
    Stability results were high which suggests you are very relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic..

    Orderliness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.

    Extraversion results were moderately low which suggests you are reclusive, quiet, unassertive, and secretive.

    I think it's pretty accurate, yeah.

    Yay INTP!

    I'm going to say your a fairly social individual though, certainly not quite.

    I think introversion/extraversion has more to do with HOW you socialize, the thoughts you choose to share and the ones you keep to yourself or specific people - that sort of thing.

    That, i will agree upon. Although i do tend to keep secret agendas hidden.
