Perhaps, I could word this differently, by using an example. The Council offical turns up at your doorstep and orders you to chop down your hedge because it is blocking the highway (a ridculous lie, but in this case he is really serious). Or you carefully prepared wildlife garden, which the...

Preferred method (what you have been observed to do in practice?): Faults. Which apply to you mostly (requires putting the boot on the other foot): 1) May be cuttingly derisive and sarcastic towards others 2) May be extremely caustic and insulting to others 3) A tendency to be arrogant or...

Shy is a psycho-political mechanism to prevent damage from people you don't trust, and represents accurate behaviour. What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?

Some people may be, but some and perhaps are not really all that good at matching their desires/aspirations/self-knowledge to answer the test properly. I am one of these. I think the personality types change both during the lifetime and during the day and night. Thinking is suppressed whilst...

I think the Pig is usually ISFP/ISTP Cat-Bear type of animal. Artist-mechanic type.

I lost my original post by accident. By deduction rather than intuition, I conclude that Moriarty was a ENTP Snake. Only Mycroft can understand Moriaty, he was too good for Sherlock as a mere INTJ hawk. Inicdentallly, I photographed this falcon up the downs yesterday. Intuition did not...

I make a distinction between Keirsey (observation of what actually people do) and Myers-Briggs (what people desire and done by written tests) I don't think the tests are all that good at matching the type with the person. It is more than just putting labels on people though. It is about...

For people who like Jung (I cannot tolerate his stilted style of writing) might like a book called the Inner World of Choice by Barbara Wicks which I read 25 years ago. Keirsey is just applied Jungian for the masses. It is ironic that like the parables and artwork it is interpreted differently...

What category do you think a chauvinist PIG should be allocated to? I am going to hide in my barrow (INFP) to stop these girls coming around.

Keirsey does not stand up to scientific method. However, I found it helpful in analysing certain psychological aspects of the Other (persons). I found it more useful than Millon personality types. It is/could be useful in management and politics. Essentially, it might be putting words to natural...

Weird is the fates that be. Yep, the second paragraph seems standard Keirsey from the book (which had to go back to the Library).

i didn't follow your links now, but even of the persons you list here, i don't know many of them well enough to make a psychological assessment. So perhaps that is a downside to your version? That is the problem. I did the Millon Inventory Test with a psychologist It was a waste of time...

I think they call it parody, the literary critics. For me (a card carrying INTP, when I discovered Keirsey about a month ago) parody is a natural response which is misunderstood by the Guardians or the Psi Cops (psychiatrists who believe in such nonsense). Gaylord Falcon (INTJ mode)

The reason for these tests is the unsatisfactory nature of the current tests at getting to the personality types. I doubt if these ENTP Snake tests are any better. Most inventions fall by the wayside. The trouble is the person taking the tests may not know the characters of the famous people in...

I have now amended the original poll at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/intp-type/surveys?id=2071489 This means votes have been lost.

Corrected poll has now been put at: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/intj/surveys?id=2736426

There was a mistake in the above. I should have included Michael Faraday instead of Isaac Newton. My error of judgement. Too quick. I should have perceived some more. I am always cursing Judgers for doing this and I do it myself !!!

Group http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/intp-type/ You will probably have to join this group first. Which famous person do you think is most like you? http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/intp-type/surveys?id=2071489 These are my choice of personalities and were done in a bit of a hurry, so I...

To make a better test I should choose a poll of a representative of each personalty type! e.g. Gandhi Attila the Hun or O Bin Laden Winston Churchill Salvador Dali Tony Blair Margaret Thatcher or Bill Gates Albert Einstein George Orwell or Sitting Bull and others to think of ... Suggestions...

Personality Test: Number Five In this test you are required to name the first five famous (or not so famous) people you admire. They should be household names. The ones that come to mind to me are: Bob Dylan John Steinbeck Charles Darwin Aldous Huxley and one to be named. All these are...

It should be possible to ascertain what personality type a person by their preferred chemical intake as it effects the brain: The only one I know definitely is preferred is that ESFJ likes "Henry the Horse" (street name: Heroin). I think (by reputation if not in fact that the ISFP Cat likes...

We all have Personality Disorders nowadays? 1) Have you ever been accused of being insulting or hurtful to others without realising that you were causing offence (acid bath murderer syndrome)? 2) Have you ever been accused of over-reacting to events? 3) Have you ever turned up an event...

No, but ESFJ are the worst. Anybody can be a maniac by proxy. ESTP Lion or Tiger are ruthless and may appear like maniacs, but I think it is an act to get their own way. However, I can only see it from the perspective of the Abstracts NP, especially the INTP Eagle. I was thinking of the...

PS: If you pick a ESFJ partner, they will attempt to control you. They are highly charged emotionally and many of them are violent. I would say all of them. It is the anima, so the attraction may be there. I expect you have seen the films, start running and don't look back! PS: if you pick...

The MOUSE ISFJ is recorded as attracting troublemakers. As Mothers they may not be popular as they support their Artisan sons (ISTP) hiding them under the bed as the Police (ESTJ) call. However, the maniacs are ESFJ HORSEMEN, and these are the direct opposite of INTP, and they are not so much...

Conan-Doyle as an INFP (Healer or Questor) I alternate between a Questor INFP (Dragon) and a Architect INTP (Eagle) with short spells as an Inventor ENTP (Snake) and Journalist ENFP (Ferret). So this makes me a NP Abstract, which is the opposite of SJ Guardian. Therein lies a major problem.

Sherlock INTJ Moriaty ? Mycroft INTP

Trouble means 1) Making false reports to authorities to cause trouble 2) Planned stalking and assaults 3) Blackballing out of local jobs because of defamation 4) Usual intimidation tricks 25 TOP WORKPLACE BULLY TACTICS Workplace bullies use many methods to intimidate their targets. Based...

Yep, it comes second to writing though.

This is a bit presumptuous but ENTPs (the Snake) have this sort of problem, especially as victims of stalking and thuggery, which is documented under intimidation on the Internet. Most teachers seem to be ENFJ (the Beaver) and ENTPs are better off in higher education. The ENTP has to...

Hello, It is said, that certain personalities are drawn to certain professions or trades. Do you (as an INTP) have trouble from other sections of society. e.g. Social Services Police Teachers Bandits Religious Officers Bureaucrats Journalists and Investigators Local Busy Bodies Academics...

007 is not a spy he is an enforcer. But of a very special kind. Spies might be the FERRET ENFP but in a dangerous business they are more likely to be the SNAKE ENTP. The Snake is one of the most misunderstood character types. As they are the extravert version of INTPs it is possible to...

007 is ESTP M is ENTP Q is INTJ Leiter is ESTJ Iam Fleming is INTP

Blofeld has a cat as an ally. Now by my animal portraits a Cat is a ISFP. Now is you pet yourself or your companion? I think it is played in the film as a Pedagogue each is both the other's mentor and student: has a "parent to child" feel This makes Blofeld a ESFJ (the most dangerous...

How about Peter Sellers? He is not the Pink Panther (ESTP), more likely an Eagle (INTP) ???

What do I as as an INTP think of the other types, from first thoughts. > ENFJ: "Teacher" = WOLF 5% Educating [Givers] Change to BEAVER seems appropriate Can be a right pain as they expect their charisma makes them really important. They take credit for other's ideas. > ENFP: "Journalist" =...

The first friends you don't choose. They just happen to be the ones in your neighbourhood. I was unlucky. A snide lived next door.

An interesting name, from saturn for an intorospective. I am afraid of high bridges unless I am in a very good mood. Perseus http://soredragon.blogspot.com/

Licence to Kill is over the line.

I am going by the books rather than the films for ESTJ. Ian Fleming I have got as INTP.

The last post is interesting as I suffered a hypnotic attack when I think the hypnotists tried to plant a suggestion in my head. I don't think it actually worked. Or of it did, my rational mind chose to ignore it. Alternatively, it is there and I don't know it consciously ???

Howlin' Wolf had a lot of charisma, an ENFJ trait. These animals allocations are driving me crazy. A Coyote is playing tricks with me head!

Do you remember the scene in Beautiful Mind when the "John Forbes Nash" got slapped around the face for asking for a shag.

Keirsey said in the book that NTs are rational not romantic. But these are just animals. Human beings can morph shift to NF if they want. I do that every night in my dreams when I suspend thinking. Q: Do psychopaths have dreams?

Re: Waht animal type is the INTP? Last thoughts Henry Haller came from Academia: Der Steppenwolf is the tenth novel by Hermann Hesse, combining autobiographical and fantastic elements. Released in 1927 and named after the lonesome wolf of the steppes, or coyote, the book in large part...

Re: Waht animal type is the INTP? Extra justification or not for a Wolf as ENFJ. There may be justification of allocating Wolf to ENTJ and putting Beaver down as ENFJ ??? SJ are the Guardians, A Tamed Wolf or Dog ISTJ is one of these. NT is a Rational like the INTP Eagles NF is an...

I put Wolves down as ENFJ, the Teacher. I do not know if I care if I right or wrong and I have changed by opinions from the original. Wolves are (first thoughts). Pack animals with a top dog and an appreciation for hierarchy. Can be tamed if caught by incentives, including praise. Lots...
