FreefallingCari 0 #4 January 8, 2014 I tend to test as an ENTJ. I enjoy being in my own head quite a bit, so I could test as an INTJ depending on the way I feel. :)Skydiver Survivor; Battling Breast Cancer one jump at a time.

davjohns 1 #11 January 8, 2014 I've taken lots of psychological tests over the years....er...not sure that makes sense without explanation. Or maybe it does? Anyone who knows me can state with some degree of confidence how I rank on any given test. Pretty sure people on this site could figure mine out without much difficulty. I'm pretty open. What you see is what you get.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,457 #13 January 8, 2014 O-M-G INTP here also. The percentages are different, which means that NO WE'RE NOT THE SAME!!!!!!! (imagine my fingers in my ears, and me saying nananananananananana) To me (and I've done some reading & looking at it), it's a grid for viewing and sorting people. It doesn't work at all for some people, and can provide some insight for others -- just as any other type-ology can. I did find that in building a team, making sure that I had a couple of specific types (call them MBTI, or whatever) would help. E.g. an idea person, a taskmaster, an integrator, and a finisher. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Andy9o8 2 #15 January 8, 2014 Interesting, but not surprising. One thing I think would make it more accurate would be to allow a greater choice range in an answer, rather than just restricting it to Yes or No. There were several questions to which, given a chance, I would have answered "sometimes" or "it depends...", so a simple Yes or No answer was misleadingly arbitrary.

JohnMitchell 16 #22 January 8, 2014 My pigeon hole came up as a solid ENTJ. We used to all laugh about the Psych Eval test for air traffic control. Some of the questions seemed pretty obtuse to us. Not having taken any psych classes in college, I had little idea what they were after, but I must have given enough of the "correct" responses. Must have been my preference of thinking over feeling.
