Myers-Briggs Type Indicator: What’s Your Personality Type?

Рет қаралды 159,544

Күн бұрын

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an introspective self-assessment that evaluates how we perceive the world and make decisions. It measures our preferences in 4 domains: mental energy sources, information processing, decision-making approaches, and structure needs, each with two opposing forces. But is it accurate? Try it and find out for yourself!

I am ENTP, and I think the MBTI system should be treated with scientific skepticism, with enough studies to be researched before actually trying to self-assess your personality type. Unfortunately, the popularity of the MBTI system made it too mainstream, and many unenlightened minds lowered all the complexity of this system to the level of vague practices like astrology or mysticism.

I am also an ENTP, and I completely agree with you. When trying to self-assess, I found it extremely helpful to study Carl Jung’s original theory. I feel as if MBTI didn’t add much to, and even diminishes, the depth of the theory of psychological types, and it’s unfortunate that MBTI is the one that became popular instead. Though I understand why it’s popular; it’s such a simple system. And like you said, it’s been simplified so many times that some don’t even view it as scientific anymore (like @Klay_Dubya so adamantly believes). But anyway, I should stop talking before they label us as “Debaters” again XD

MBTI has solid foundation, and certainly it's no less self-assessment than the big 5, but unfortunately it has been relegated to the area of mystical pseudoscience together with all of Jung's work. Does Jung's, Briggs and Myers own types (all of them NF) in the world that values SJ have something to do with it? If one refuses to look outside their box they won't see the rest of the world.

Cognitive functions, as the name implies, simply seeks to describe one way in which our brains work. Personally, I use it as an introspective tool to help partially understand why I think the way I do. I like finding out what makes things tick, including humans.

@DAN1EL125 I too learned about ambiversion as well, but I think labeling yourself with an identity may help you understand your personal temperaments, but ultimately restrict your further comprehension of how you want to interact. Like beyond saying "an ambivert is someone who has both introverted and extroverted traits," what does that really tell you about the kind of interactions you want to have? My OP goes further into detail on how I personally like to interact with people.

Is there any scientific proof right now that shows that introverts really lose energy from social interaction while introverts gain energy from social interaction? Like in the ATP or mitochondrial level or something. Sometimes I think it has something to do with introverts sense and process more things when they're in social situations and may cause exhaustion faster, but it certainly doesn't mean that they don't crave social interactions.

@@011azr I'm no neurologist, but I do like studying neurology, so... I would say there's a pretty clear distinction between mental energy and physical energy. Much like how your muscles need energy that's derived from the krebbs cycle with ATP, your brain, I imagine, would similarly still need ATP just to function, but also would require a good balance of neurochemicals like dopamine, serotonin, GABA, and glutamate. This is because mental energy is more commonly known as will power. Your willingness to take on additional mental load. It's one thing to engage with someone who requires no mental load like engaging in small talk "hey how are you" "good, how are you" "good thanks for asking" versus having to rethink your entire existence when someone challenges your prior beliefs. "So why do you think there's a god when millions of people suffer every day due to the circumstances imposed upon them via colonial forces that extract as much economic value as they can while leaving them penniless?" "Uhhhh, IDK."

No, you can't shift your personality. The MBTI identifies your core preferences in how you perceive the world and make decisions, but it doesn't mean your personality changes. While you can adapt your behavior to different situations, making it seem like you're changing personalities, your underlying preferences remain consistent. It seems like you might not fully understand the cognitive theory behind it.

The criticisms I see may be technically valid, but MBTI seems a very useful intro to understanding. Recently discovered it, and seeing snippets of types, guessed I'm probably an INTJ. So I took the test and got ENFP. Very surprising, eye opening, and further contemplation confirmed that I think and respond quite differently than I pictured. Helped me understand a lot looking back on my life. Who we are, how we see ourselves, how others see us, are three different people.

The problem with results from MBTI is that you'll have an unconscious bias towards looking for confirmation. Down the line, MBTI doesn't show anything else but what you think of yourself.

@Tea12456 Ай бұрын

The issue is in how a person perceives and how the test perceives a type For example, if you got ENFP you mostly assisted yourself as not entirely organized and more empathetic, and the more the ratio expands the more likely for you to get typed that type If I want myself to come out as an INFP all I have to do is increase the portion of responses related to being empathetic and understanding which could be my tendency The questions tend to be vague and less informative than they should

ENTP here. After many decades of struggling to understand my place or value in the world, friends introduced me to the MBTI system about 14 years ago. It was a revelation, because by learning that my personality was described meant that it was recognised, and I was not alone. I learned that I was not abnormal, but part of a common group. It was amazing. I understand now that mainstream psychology is more comfortable with the similar Jungian OCEAN model.

@more-of-psycho-less-of-logist 8 ай бұрын

MBTI is based on Jungian model, OCEAN (or "Big Five") is model popularised by Costa & McCrae, who proposed it as a light modification of Goldberg's 5-factor model (and actually became most popular, but not the only form, because many psychologists taking research on individual differences came by 5-factor solutions of personality) which developed it from the Cattel's 16PF model) and was popularised and further developed by Costa & McCrae. ;)

true. and its pretty simple to understand why. for each letter you reduce a spectral scale to two extreme points (there is no nuances of grey, always only black and white), and if you're e.g. in the middle of I and E, but slightly leaning to be introverted, you get a big fat I in the result. and this is done four times. so the result is also not very stabil, as one differently answered quesion in a second try might change one of the letters completly.

@@mopshops Unless you are an outlier, then it's unlikely to be so changeable - which might explain why some people get the same or very similar results years apart and feel its more informative for them. I know I did after a 15-year interval. But I am more variable on the Big 5 - still similar ends of things but the facets shift a little - I think because it's more subtle or because the norms it compares you to can shift. I find the big 5 is harder for most people to apply in terms of how it might shape their experiences and behaviours, although it does have a little bit of scope for predictive factors - still pretty shakey to me though.

I like people sometimes. I definitely prefer to adhere to my personal compass over the collective herd mentality. So with that, I am a pretty good at perceiving. Though I know how to hand down judgement separating the wheat from the shaft with precision. I consider myself to also be a thinker and a feeler. There should be a happy medium.

Sometimes, what emotions can do far exceeds what logical decision-making can do. You can use this simple quote "You don't know it, until you know it". Sometimes, it's better to cut off other options and select one, putting in your efforts at full potential. Well, logicality certainly makes you risk averse but also makes you fearful of it. And eventually, you end up not beginning with your decided tasks. See, emotions work as fuel and logic as a tool for navigating the best and efficient way possible.

Since MBTI is measuring 4 metrics in separate terms, and labeling each possibility as a type, the theory holds few waters with swingers. If you are swinging in two or more of the four metrics, you cannot really make use of the labelled type. However, you can dive deep into the details of each metrics and seek better understanding.

I think it would be far better to focus on the 8 cognitive functions when determining your type, rather than using the letters (Like Introvert vs Extrovert < than Extroverted Thinking vs Introverted thinking). It gives us better understanding, since people are bad at self-assessment. Also, the extroverted types may be introverts by nature, sometimes! The only thing that determines the first letters is whether your primary cognitive function works inwardly or outwardly! (Like, Fi -> introverted feeling; Fe -> extroverted feeling)

Ich finde es äußerst interessant, da es dazu beitragen kann, wie man generell mit Menschen interagiert und sie behandelt. Wenn jedoch das Ziel besteht, eine intensive Verbindung herzustellen oder eine tiefere Beziehung aufzubauen, ist es unabdingbar, die Person besser kennenzulernen, indem man gemeinsam Zeit verbringt, sich austauscht und so weiter. Menschen sind äußerst vielschichtig und komplex, weshalb es keine Theorien geben sollte, die sie simplifizieren oder kategorisieren. Persönlich habe ich selbst einen solchen Test gemacht, und es ergab kein festes Ergebnis. Ich bin einerseits so, andererseits eher so, und gelegentlich bin ich auch anders. In diesem Sinne kann man diese Theorie und andere Persönlichkeitstheorien als Hilfsmittel betrachten, um bereits grundlegende Vorstellungen und Ideen darüber zu haben, wie man sich anderen gegenüber verhalten sollte. Zudem können sie dazu beitragen, Selbstreflexion zu fördern und zu verstehen, wer man als Mensch ist und wie man sich weiterentwickeln kann. Dennoch ist es wichtig zu betonen, dass das reine Verständnis von Theorien allein nicht ausreicht, um sich selbst und andere Menschen wirklich zu kennen oder zu verstehen.

This is a comment before I even watch your video. I think personality tests are terrible to base your identity upon because If you do then I think you can very quickly trap yourself into a box with rigid definitions. Whereas, I also think that these tests can introduce you to new types of questions you may have never considered before and as a consequence make you reflect on whether you want to stay as you are, or if you'd like to change. I'm all for a more reflective society, and entirely against a more rigid "I'm this, or I'm that" kind of society. It's like why limit who you can be, just know who you are right now and grow into who you want to be.

always thought it was bs but understanding it makes it fair everyone is attracted to this traits on a spectrum always one more than other i do think its kind of limited though people differ as how much one is closer to one trait and far from other in the end they could have same type but personalities could still be different

As INTP myself, I would agree with you few years back, but don't worry, after you drop on the bottom and know how bad place can the world be, you will feel real happiness as the world starts to surprise you mostly positively. I would argue our type has it better, because we (probably) can reach it faster than other types = more of truly happy lifetime. :)

This may be an entertaining test, but I recommend not treating it as more than that. Models like OCEAN are heavily preferred by scientists as they take into account the spectrum people are on for each trait and don’t offer such detailed predictions into thought processes of the individual. Most people are near the middle on lots of these traits so they aren’t useful to measure. Sociology is a soft science, but this test doesn’t even meet those requirements.

@FrankieAmadeian. 5 ай бұрын

The OCEAN thing this person is talking about is the Big Five personality traits, just in case anyone's wondering. It stands for Openness; Conscientiousness; Extraversion; Agreeableness; and Neuroticism. There's a test you can take online to see your rating on these five traits.

That’s why all the real MBTI is based on cognitive functions. It seems to be much more accurate than the version described in this video. I would consider the two completely different systems with the same typings

A better description of personality types are more like various colors. Many have similar color blends, but no two are exactly alike. There's both nature vs nurture involved in one's development as well. So the MBTI might be useful, it's not totally in depth for everything.

As an ENTJ I feel we are heavily stereotyped but then again mbti is a wide generalization and a mere tool to quite vaguely understand a person and the way they work somewhat.

We judge someone's MBTI based on information circulated across the internet, and not realising who they really are as people, what they really want to be, how well they treat others based on their interests and their environment, etc. Before calling out someone's MBTI, we need to know what are the 8 cognitive functions, namely Si, Ni, Ti, Fi, Se, Ne, Te, and Fe, why are they like this, which part of the brain in a person is dominant with either of them, etc. Now, In my understanding, Xi and Ye are complementary and so are Xe and Yi. Here Xi, Xe, Yi, and Ye are cognitive functions, where X = S, and Y = T, F, and if one of Xi is dominant, then one of Ye is auxiliary _(not recessive for a reason)._ This would also apply to Xe and Yi. An INFJ is Ni dominant and Fe auxiliary, whereas ISTP is Ti dominant and Se auxiliary. Each of the cognitive functions mentioned earlier carry unique meaning. The more you discover about them and the more you find them in each person you witness, the more you would know about them, and the easier one would point out the real character about a person.

@rickythebguy5997 6 ай бұрын

Also, i = introverted and e = extroverted. None of us are 100% introverted or 100% extroverted. We need not call anyone as an introvert or an extrovert. Guess what, A person who's more of an introvert dominated has an auxiliary extrovert within himself, whereas an extrovert dominated has an auxiliary extrovert.

I am ESFP, your test makes me ENTP. I dislike your missing awareness towards cognitive functions. Feeling does not mean seeking harmony, while seeking justice is an exclusively value based topic. Logical thinkers wouldn't care about injustice. Also if you are intuitive or sensor doesn't get determined by if you prefer theory or practical experiences, but by if you communicate more detailed & concrete or general & abstract.

It’s not as simple as this, have you even looked into the cognitive functions? For example, the F in INFPs is different than that of INFJs, as INFPs have introverted feeling while INFJs have extroverted feeling. This means that INFPs make decisions/judgements based on their own values and what they themselves like, while INFJs prioritize social harmony and reading other people’s emotions. Introverted feeling looks within themselves and focuses on interpreting their own feelings, while extroverted feeling brings people together and expresses their emotions more externally. There is a huge difference, this video is full of misconceptions.

I Litterally do not know. I used to be FULL ON Infp and laugh with all Infp jokes and 100% saw myself as an Infp. I didn't have many friends. I used my gut feeling I had many more emotions than thinking And I didn't organize anything But now 😢 Now I'm an extremely loud person and I talk ALOT and I have alot of friends and I get energy from people. I like looking at things sometimes just as they are instead of thinking '' ooh in the past a hardworking builder mightve used this hammer" I am kind of more logical when my friends start talking about feelings but I do understand them And well I'm not neat at all but I like it when they are... I'm having a crisis between these personalities Enfp Infp Isfp Infj Ok yeah Ive checked all the personalities and I don't fit with any of the T's but i still feel pretty logical these days. And I have friends to compare enfj, isfj intj, intp, Esfp. And I'm nothing like them. However my friends of the other personalities I feel like I have in common with all of them...and with me overthinking myself so much I thought. Infj maybe? But like bro I'm not neat. And I'm dating another Infj and like. We are really similar but not? I wrote poems and she doesn't understand how I do it. I don't understand how she forgives me for the things I say cuz im Really impulsive. She says im her therapist ? Which I don't understand 😢? And the fact that I'm trying to figure myself out so much probably means I'm an introvert. And the way I'm trying to puzzle it all prob intuitive. And I'm feeling... And I'm not completely organized or consistent in actions. So im probably an Infp who's changing and doesn't understand it at all and is now in a 16 personalities identity crisis. But I watch vids on Infp now and I'm not as Espresso depresso or antisocial. I also don't really relate to those vids that much anymore... And I usually don't introspect as much anymore... Maybe cuz I already know myself? Wait that's contradictory... help

@malcormwalker8176 4 ай бұрын

Not taking jab at anyone here in the comment section been skeptical and or unsure of their labels. But as a defaultly skeptical Introvert, INTP's (to which is what i am) are in fact the only one's on here who would feel as though their label is shockingly if not terrifyingly accurate. Especially the part where we completely have no need for other people's mental stimulation and or physical interactions (almost autistc even). And as a result, making us obviously always hard to read by others. I mean, we always act if we hate this in people faces, but the actual truth is, we secretly love and relish the idea, the thought and or even the reality of been hard to read and or misunderstood by other people. It's somewhat like that of a metal slash behavioural forbidden fruit to which we just can't help but chew on maniacally only in private. And sure, we can definitely see some reflection and or feel some kind of remnant of ourselves in other labels, espcially those under the introvertion umbrella but, yeah. You get the idea:

He didn't delve into Cognitive Functions? The myers briggs index is based on the Jungian system where there are 16 functions, out of which you use 4 in order of preference and 1 you're oblivious to. The order of these determines your typee! An INFJ will seem extraverted because their feeling is extraverted, but its in the second function place. A mature INTJ will feel morally strong and thus not too logical because of their introverted feeling in their 3rd slot. I,E,F,T,N,S,P,J is a horrid overgeneralization
