The problem with MBTI and such are that these categories are really more like spectrums instead of discrete groups. If you flip-flop on one of the letters, that means you're not especially strongly biased towards either end of the spectrum, but instead you draw from both when making decisions. Which one you draw from in any given situation depends on your current state of mind and the particular details of the decision being made.

If I were to make a personality test, I would make sure I've got a "mixed" entry on each axis. Of course that would mean there would be 81 results instead of 16 on the MBTI...

^This.
Mine vary a bit depending on my mood. Also, I have no clue if my view of self is accurate for saying what my personality is.

I once took a MBTI test that showed each part of the result on a graph, to indicate how strong of an influence each one had on you, in order to account for exactly this phenomenon. If I recall correctly, two of my categories were both split pretty evenly down the middle.

Hmmm... I got INFP-T...

To be fair I am super introverted and barely leave the house because of it... Even phone calls make me anxious and I spend most of my time (when I can) crafting in one way or another, reading fantasy books (normally with strong but conflicted female leads) or playing games online...

I am an INTP-T.

I have no idea what that means.

But I could be an INJP-T too.

Since I got 49% for judging and 51% for prospecting.

I had a friend take the test today and even though he was close to certain results I read to him how his group thinks and he agreed on all accounts.

But that's not to say he doesn't think in certain ways on occasion. I think the overall result and goal is to find how you think or operate on a close average.

I'm kind of in between infp-t and the istp one. The first time I remember taking the test and getting insp, then infp, then switching between the two. When reading the descriptions, I'm kind of a mix of both too :/

Yeah, on the MBTI I've always been IN-P. The logic/emotions question has always been really hard for me, but I average out leaning a bit more towards T than F (I'd say maybe 52/48?).

On the same note, with the enneagram, I'm a 5 with a 4-wing, aka 5w4, which corresponds to INTP with INFP tendencies.

On the same note as Coda, the MBTI and enneagram tests are both spectrum-based; the enneagram specifically has a spectrum for each type, as well as wings.

Not expecting many E---'s around here, especially ES--'s.

The MBTI itself does, but most pop-culture implementations of it don't.

I'm still waiting for someone to be my twin =(

Same Spar

*pouts and waits for another INFJ*

INFP-T

Last time I took the myers briggs...they told me intp/infp...which the t/p are still fairly close to balanced on this one too for me.

For the sake of discussion, this particular test yielded INTP-A, but right on the cusp on N/O and T/F.

This marks a change in my personality. I used to be a lot more heavily T than F, but I've had a couple of major breakdowns over the last couple of years that have made me a lot more emotionally raw.

Usually I'm on the cusp for J/P leaning J (INTJ is my most common result) but this test asked a lot of questions that poke at my ADHD, which biases the results according to how I do things when I'm NOT making conscious choices as opposed to how I do things when I AM making them -- also, having a messy work area is a conscious choice (J) for me.

I am in the 80+% for each of my traits, which wasn't a big surprise at all. Most of the things were spot on, Strong ideals but soft spoken and try to not offend people. Non confrontational with a high drive to do something with out a large amount of personal gain.

I have two in the 70s...the others are in the 50-60s

I usually get INTP on these tests, with occasional variations in I-E and T-F, depending on my mood.

Even though Jung types have no basis in science, I can't help but relate to mine. The mental image of an absent-minded professor who is completely lost in their own head is literally me every day as a teacher.
