Myers-Briggs personality types

[pauraque_bk]

I recently changed my userinfo to mention that I'm an INFP, which is really a very accurate description of my personality. Quite often, I find myself wanting to explain my actions by saying "it's an INFP thing".

So, in the interest of fostering understanding (and that's an INFP thing), I've put together a poll. I added the Hogwarts question on a whim; if a lot of people respond, I'll collate the two and see if the same types end up in the same houses.

If you don't know your type, there are tests here and here.

EDIT: For collating the results, I'll use all responses received within 72 hours. (That means before 10:30am Pacific Time on Tuesday, 3/23.) If you show up after that, feel free to take the survey anyway; it's just that there's a limit to how much data I can process.

EDIT2: The 72 hours are up. You're still welcome to take the survey, of course. The last respondent to make it in under the wire was izmeina. I'll let quickquote know when the results are prepared.

EDIT3: The results are here.

Yes I think that might account for the skewing. I most recently score a whole 1 on extrovert, so it's so borderline it's insane, and yet the ENFP descriptions are the only ones that fit, and I've never gone over the line into INFP.

The line from http://keirsey.com/pygmalion/advocates.html makes me giggle the most, I'd lost this link. Quote: "At times, Advocates will champion a cause with such zeal that they can be carried away with the rightness of their position"

Um yes. The time I set my dad's newspaper on fire while he was reading it sort of springs to mind ;-) And I still believe it was perfectly justifed *g*
