Yay the pop quizzes (yep, still)

@Frank James Do you plan on doing content similair to your old videos? For example podcasts etc.

I wanna say something here but I don't know what to say so... I'll just say... Stay cool and attractive, Frank 😎

So great to see a flicker of 2018/19 FJ coming through. Nice to see a more chilled video without the epic green screens, dress-ups and editing. I like chill FJ 😊

Thank you for your videos. 🖤

@@glazedstarlight9734 same thing but it happened to your ass 😈

That's right

This is kind of my fear, tbh. I remember back in February when I first started learning about this. We went for a walk and saw a family with small children. One child was walking way ahead of them. My first thought was, “Hmm, I wonder what personality would be the type to walk ahead…or trail behind…the rest of a group?🤔” Then I immediately shut down the thought because I didn’t want to be someone who was constantly analysing people in casual settings. I haven’t gotten too deeply entrenched in MBTI since then because of this, even though I think it’s so interesting.

i’m literally obsessed

@@Carol_65 it’s a thing for sure! I’m an ENFP, if that helps in any way, but: I find myself trying to type my cat’s personality, celebs or actual characters in stories, my colleagues, boss, etc. it’s more an experiment for myself if I think I’ve figured them out correctly and use that to influence how I interact with them (not celebs and characters though, but people/beings in my actual life), and then if they seem to positively respond to my interaction with them, it gives me more evidence that I may be onto something with my MBTI hypothesis for them. It’s both just fun to type but also somewhat helps in my communication with others.

@@Carol_65 Your literally afraid of a thought in your head which is hilarious to me

@@FrankJames hello franky man

@@FrankJames Yes, hello fellow Ni dom.

I have a feeling that Frank is trying to gather the entire mbti community using skit videos. I assume this is his opportunity to make people get deeper on MBTI

Yep, that was my reaction when I saw this video hahah :D ! I feel like lots of people since they're more used to the little sketches etc. aren't really familiar with cognitive functions, so they're typing themselves either by stereotypes / the 16 personnalities test directly, which is.. Ehhhhh because of the typing by letters that is an extremely simplied version of the cognitive functions, plus the intuitive bias that 16 personnalities have :). Anyway, I'm glad that Frank can educate more people on them :D

IKR i was waiting for this moment for sooo long

@@p666ny Sameee

yez finally

Ooh shadow stack - I just commented asking something about that

I'm INTJ Ni Te Fi Se (I'll change the order to explain) Ni Se Te Fi What is the meaning of past ideas Ni For what is happening now Se And apply technically to all of us as a group Te But don't across the line of what I THINK it's the RIGHT? Fi

I’m an isfp and I think I’m a fi dok

@@lucasmoreno4412 Wow! It's a really great way to explain how the functions do in real life. Well say!!!

you're a G

Yeah, that was a fun vid. And very true.

Talking about the cognitive functions and how that applies to someone personally as well as how far they are in the direction towards a part of a personality like how S or T someone is will give answers that are more exact to how the person actually behaves while the simple idea that an ENTJ has J and ENTP doesn't so ENTJ must be more organized I find it funny how no one cares about how the type actually works and how it can vary before using it

Yeah, same here, I was actually shocked when he said "thanks for watching"...

Nice

@@Righthand_ thanks!

Thanks

Niceuuu

I would say Si is more related to personal tastes than Fi - This is just one mistake out of the huge number of mistakes in MBTI. Just read what Jung wrote about Si and you will quickly find that the MBTI completely misunderstood the functions.

that's true, and I almost put that in this video, but since it is not traditional MBTI I figured I'd save it for its own vid

Isn’t that called looping and is unhealthy if done for too long?

@@offsetsface2135 yeah, looping is like ignoring your second function and using more the third one but kinda using it in a unhealthy way

it’s an OP thing i guess

It's rare for people to have extraverted perceiving and extraverted judging function as dominant and auxiliary function. That doesn't mean people aren't more likely to exhibit their two extraverted functions to others.

Also! Your functions determine your type, not otherwise. You have to find out what function you use the most to actually know what is your type.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh my head!!!!!

@@Simply_rat99 same

thank you so much for this !! :)

You should copy and paste this comment under Frank's Pinned comment so more people see it

The silly thing is since we use our brains in different ways, people will have different ways to remember. Love all the shares!!

I still can’t understand 🙂

Geesh, this is harder than I thought. It's ok, I am a total newbie and just started, haven't read the ebook yet 🤣 hope this won't confuse me 🤣

My Brain be like: Ni - Nickel Ne - Neon Fe - Iron Fi - I have no idea Te - Telenium Ti - Titanium Se - Selenium Si - Silicon

Haha your joking right?

@@scarasbf there's no type with these cognitive functions stack, one is extroverted and the other is introverted, like it can be Ne Fi Te Si wich is ENFP, or maybe Ne Ti Fe Si wich is ENTP (English is not my first language, hope it's understandable)

Let me guess, enfp?

Ok, I'll summarize this in the simplest manner possible. Ti = Likes to make their own thinking, likes to ask questions, highly logical, detail focused, likes to connect small details in order to reach to a final conclusion. Te= Open to the ideas of others if backed up by good arguments, productive, willed to trade details for time savings. Highly driven by facts and common sense, likes helping others, prefers to be concrete and upfront. Fi= inward focused, driven by values, highly empathetic in weird ways, doesn't like opening up unless it's with a highly trusted individual, individualistic, are good at spotting bad people. Fe= outward focused, likes helping people a lot, likes showing emotion, usually sociable, very supportive. Ni= Future focused, abstract, very deep, high pattern recognition skills, doesn't enjoy working with too many ideas all at once, gets overwhelmed if they need to make too many fast decisions Ne= Very imaginative, good at seeing possibilities, spontaneous, likes to juggle between multiple ideas or concepts, enjoy exploration. Si= Very organized, down to earth, conservative in their thinking, enjoys facts and common sense, very balanced, doesn't like too many changes, especially if they seem weird to them, past focused. Se= Present focused, spontaneous, very good at making fast decisions, enjoys being active in the sensory world, energetic, doesn't like delaying gratification. Perceiving functions (XXXP) = Intuition, sensing Judging functions (XXXJ) = Thinking, feeling The first function can be determined by the first and last letter of a personality, if the personality has an "E" as their first letter then their first function will be extroverted, if the first letter is "I" then the first function will be introverted. If an extrovert has a "J" as their last letter then their first function will be a judging function (Thinking/feeling). If an extrovert has a "P" as their last letter then their first function will be a perceiving one (Intuition/sensing). Keep in mind that for introverts is the other way around. J= Intuition/sensing P= Thinking/feeling. The first function of a personality will always have it's opposite as the last function. Ni will have Se Te will have Fi Fe will have Ti An ENTJ will have extroverted thinking as their first function because they are an extrovert, they have J as their last letter and they are a thinker. Their last function will be introverted feeling since that's the opposite of their first function. The second function can be determined by looking at the first function. If the first function is a judging function then second one will be a perceiving one and vice versa. If the first function is introverted then the second one is extroverted and vice versa. The third function will always be the opposite of the second function. ENTJ has an extroverted judging function (EXXJ) as their first function which means that the second one will be an introverted perceiving one. ENTJ is an intuitive which means that the second function will be introverted intuition. The third function is always the opposite of the second one which means that an ENTJ will have extroverted sensing as their third function. In conclusion, an ENTJ has extroverted thinking as ther first function (they're extroverted and also a judging type) The last function is introverted feeling because that's the opposite of the first. The second function is introverted intuition (the first function is an extroverted judging one so the second function is an introverted perceiving one. They are also an intuitive since they have "N"). The third function is always the opposite of the second function, that means that the third function is extroverted sensing. If you have any questions then feel free! I spent a whole hour writing this, I hope it turns out to be worth it.

@@end4567 😦 seee...this is why I'm lost. That's a hella lot of summary. Maybe if I read it 15 times..and the whole time I'll be asking myself "what if it's not even real??" 🥴

@@zzs33 I dunno. According to the test, I am ISTP or ISTJ..depending on the day I take it. 😁

@@dipsydoodle7988 Uff, there's really no easy way to explain it. It's a lot of details but it isn't too hard to understand. If you don't really care about learning everything and you use mbti to self develop then you can read about the functions of your own personality and stop there. If you're an ISTP then your functions are these: 1. Introverted thinking 2. Extroverted sensing 3. Introverted intuition 4. Extroverted feeling If you're an ISTJ then 1. Introverted sensing 2. Extroverted thinking 3. Introverted feeling 4. Extroverted intuition

i love watching you two! :)

just found your channel- love it

I always watches your videos too. Your videos are one of the best content of KZfaq for understanding MBTI types

Saying someone is "responsible" for a function is more accurate than saying, for example, that they "want to" or "like to" use it. For example, an ISFJ might tell you that they don't like organizing, they don't want to do it, but they will spend their whole afternoon arranging their kitchen drawers without freaking out about it because they feel responsible for that.

@@FrankJames Ok, thank you. Examples definitely make things a bit clearer for me.

@@FrankJames Might be a bit too much to ask, but could it be possible to give more examples of this responsibility in the other cognitive functions? 🤔 That example right there was SO helpful for me, thank you so much. 🙏 + What I have a lot of trouble understanding is how a cognitive function manifests in its position. For example, how does Ti manifest in the dom, 2nd, 3rd, and inf function? I tried to look for it but the explanations are SO ambiguous and not helpful at all. Especially the perceiving functions, they are much harder to understand (at least for me)... For example: "Auxiliary Introverted Intuition As an auxiliary function, Ni manifests as an understanding of how one ought to go about accomplishing his or her goals, based on a keen intuitive perception of how various courses of action are likely to unfold. The auxiliary-Ni monologue: “How can I use my intuitive knowledge about how things are connected in order to achieve what I want?”" (source: thoughtcatalog .com) That's helpful for someone who already has it (kinda), but how can an outsider figure that out? I know I gave the worst example ever with Ni, but I think you can understand what I mean 😅 You already have a video about how to recognize them and that's really helpful, but one about that would also be even more helpful for someone who is trying to understand mbti as a whole, in my opinion. Thank you so much for reading this 🙏🙏🙏🙏

@@Carol_65 I think he did a video long time ago showing people driving in a car. With the dominant function behind the wheel, the adult. And secondary function in passenger seat at a younger age, and the other two in the back seat at younger and younger ages (weaker in their ability to deal with things outside their comfort zone I think, if that makes sense). Hmmm, now I see why some therapists ask you "who is driving your car? If they jump out what will YOU do?" I think the goal is to work on our weaker functions to become more well rounded people? That was a good visual for me

@@recoveringsoul755 I don‘t remember seeing this video. That would be a good one to watch. 😃 I‘ll look to see if I can find it on his channel. If not, I wonder why he removed it. It seems like an excellent visual example.

Oh plsss Im still confuse, Im ENFP when I was kid surely but as I came to puberty I start not having much friends and only little circle of group and now I dont have close ones but I talk to people only If I want them Im confuse like Im a loner at class and then I'll be in martial arts class were I can get along with my mates and teacher even we only met for twice a week 🤦🏻‍♀️

You have Ni?

@@tiny2315 that's... what I said in my comment :)

Wait how did you know your dominant is Ni? I tried studying the cognitive functions and I've narrowed it down to ENTJ and INTJ, I just can't find out if my dominant is Ni or Te since I use both in a regular basis and don't know which one I use more

@@inirah486 That's a great question! The main method that usually works for me is to determine which of two things is of higher value to me by asking myself which one I fall back to in moments of high stress or disillusionment. For me, I also use Te and Ni pretty evenly, but in moments of high stress or disillusionment, I fall back on relying heavily on my _excellent_ gut instinct and sense of patterns to watch out for, not so much taking immediate and decisive action based on current intelligence. Hope that helps! :)

You just proved to me that you were absolutely not intp because i am and i *sped up* the video! It fascinates me how a lot of ppl are ignorant about these cognitive functions when they are literally the root of the mbti personalities study

I found it hilarious xD

* you're.

**laughcry in Ti user**

as an enfp i can confirm

Fe users just have different struggles.

If you're confident of yourself and can be realistic, having an Fi does not pose that much problem. Indeed, it feels saddening that it's hard to feel that people doesnt understand us, but you have to learn to control that feeling. Speaking from an INFP here.

I was looking for a comment like this! :p

@@nomadicgamer9466 lol search no more!

I was going to comment on this but I had to call out his book abuse😁

@@tracyzimmerman7912 what did that book ever do to him??

I would also say your second and third function ability can be quite influenced by how introverted you are. For instance a more extroverted social infj is going to have much higher Fe ability, a shut in infj will have a stronger ti ability. At the same time if an INFJ that was a shut in this out into the world their Fe judgements will definitely loom large in there decision making

@@nicholasjh1 "that was a shut in this out into the world Wut?

Growing your Fi by reading books about difficult subjects and grey areas, and growing your Te by making plans and sticking with them - that’s what helped me a lot :)

@@miahan8988 ah, thank you so much. Do you know any specific topics for growing Fi? Like a few examples? Thank you for the advice btw, it's much appreciated. I didn't know that's how you grew those areas. I'll definitely work on those things

Just a little advice: Your type doesn't determine your functions, your functions determine your type. I'd suggest reading and learning about functions to properly type yourself.

@@miliniumo147 topics that helped me grow most: people writing about their PTSD struggles, abuse, depression, mental issues (written by people who struggle with them), stories about overcoming adversity, about selflessness, making mistakes and learning from them, reading about people who have regrets - all this stuff helped jumpstart my Fi. Difficult topics and grey areas where there is more than 1 correct answer, where you have to think carefully.
