Typing by facial features

[cheese]

http://www.okcupid.com/tests/120657...hysiognomy,-or-Personality-by-Facial-Features

Just out of interest. Accuracy not expected.

I got ESFJ.

 

[Anthile]

Oh, I did that with Fukyo some weeks ago. Both of us turned out to be ISTJ which is why we did not post it here. Facial features are much more hereditary than personality types.

 

[loveofreason]

ESFP!

*dies laughing*

 

[didyouknow]

ISTP

42% Extroverted, 67% Sensing, 68% Thinking, 71% Perceiving

 

[The Fury]

I did this a while ago and got INTJ.

 

[Fleur]

ISTP. And I realized I have no actual clue what my real eye colour is.

 

[preilemus]

INTJ

27% Extroverted, 42% Sensing, 68% Thinking, 44% Perceiving


Im not sure whether my eyes are light or dark blue

 

[Jaico]

ISFJ...
Thankfully my type is determined by my personality and not by my looks, or else I'd be...boring .

 

[cheese]

So Anthile and Fukyo look alike, while I look like lor and Jaico (got ISFJ second time round). Fleur looks like dyk and Fury like Glove (fine, I'll start using preilemus...someday).

 

[Eljua]

It's good to know we've taken to using OKcupid as a reliable source of personality typing, considering, apparently, my face says I'm an INFJ. I'm exceptionally relieved that OKCupid has reliably sorted my skepticism out once and for all. I'm certainly most suprised that they have not joined up with MyHeritage.com, that most respectable institute of genealogical certainty, and created something similar to this to remove that pesky thing called human error, and finally silence those who wish to use the socratic method to attack this method of human typology.

 

[sniktawekim]

INFJ

50% Extroverted, 40% Sensing, 50% Thinking, 50% Perceiving


heh so im pretty much XNXX

 

[preilemus]

1. dont strain yourself over my name; just call me whatever is most comfortable.

2. How could you possibly get different results? did your facial structure change in between tests or something?

 

[Tunesimah]

It pegged me as an ESFP... so this test is probably garbage.

 

[Cogwulf]

coincidentally enough I got INTP, but I half guessed some of the questions, and most of the questions just have the options large small or average with no measurements so it's very subjective.

The main fault with this test is that if it was accurate it would mean that MBTI type is almost completely correlated with race, and this is definitely not the case

 

[Inappropriate Behavior]

I got INTP, wouldn't say I look like Cogwulf though judging from his pictures.

31% Extroverted, 21% Sensing, 75% Thinking, 56% Perceiving

Silly quiz.

 

[Enne]

I got INFP.

What the hell.

 

[Dormouse]

ISFP ...
Hardly accurate, though I didn't understand many of the questions.

You are quiet, friendly, sensitive, and kind, enjoying the present moment and what’s going on around you. You like to have your own space and to work within your own time frame. You are loyal and committed to your values and to people who are important to you. You dislike disagreements and conflicts, and do not force your opinions or values on others. Famous ISFPs: Britney Spears, Marilyn Monroe, Dan Rather, and Marie Antoinette. (Courtesy or myersbriggs.org)

Actually, that could almost describe me. Though I hate to be compared to Britney Spears...

 

[Fukyo]

I think it's pretty obvious that it's inaccurate as far as actual personality typing goes,but I'm interested in which criteria is used to determine which facial featured correspond with a certain type and what the test was based on.

 

[Ermine]

I find this test fairly entertaining. I've taken it a couple times and come up with either INTJ or INFJ. Remotely close I guess. I wonder what about my face implies Ni though.

 

[Enne]

Maybe your facial features are convergent. Are they like ... really clustered at the center of your face? oO

 

[Fleur]

I think it's pretty obvious that it's inaccurate as far as actual personality typing goes,but I'm interested in which criteria is used to determine which facial featured correspond with a certain type and what the test was based on.

I guess that square hairline - T, round - F; big eyes - N, narrow - S...

Silly Eljua - I mean, Fukyo.

(I liked the sark though!)

2. How could you possibly get different results? did your facial structure change in between tests or something?

There were a couple of questions I wasn't sure how to answer.

The main fault with this test is that if it was accurate it would mean that MBTI type is almost completely correlated with race, and this is definitely not the case

I'm not sure it's definitely not the case, but yes, the test does seem to assume correlation between type and physical traits found predominantly in certain races.


Regardless of accuracy, presumably the test has some set criteria to determine type, so this does serve to give me some idea what kind of features you people have...nice, considering we're not really picture-oriented individuals.

*edit

Oh yes

Maybe your facial features are convergent. Are they like ... really clustered at the center of your face? oO

 

[echoplex]

I've vowed to stay away from okcupid forever, but I wonder, what are the criteria for this? What is an INTP (or other type) supposed to look like?

 

[Ermine]

You made my day. So ENxPs would have perpetually exploding heads?

 

[Tyria]

ENFJ? Not me at all.

 

[Cassandra]

3/4 correct, but the difference between an INTP and an ISTP is significant. Plus, I get only 2% sensing on the real myers-briggs test.

What's funny is this is how many people percieve me (when they don't know me...people usually assume I don't like people and love problem solving right off the bat).

Your result for The Myers-Briggs Physiognomy, or Personality-by-Facial-Features Test ...
ISTP

31% Extroverted, 67% Sensing, 68% Thinking, 62% Perceiving

You are tolerant and flexible, and a quiet observer until a problem appears. Then you act quickly to find workable solutions. You analyze what makes things work and readily get through large amounts of data to isolate the core of practical problems. Interested in cause and effect, you organize facts using logical principles and value efficiency.

 

[Zero]

ISFP.

I'm White BTW and a little Native American.

They didn't even ask about your face shape or anything... I mean, my face is more round than square, but it's definitely more oval than round.

 

[Misanthropy]

ISTP

..strange

 

[Agent Intellect]

Interesting:

INTP

42% Extroverted, 49% Sensing, 68% Thinking, 65% Perceiving

You seek to develop logical explanations for everything that interests you. Theoretical and abstract, you are interested more in ideas than in social interaction. You are quiet, contained, flexible, and adaptable, and have unusual ability to focus in depth to solve problems in your area of interest. You are skeptical, sometimes critical, always analytical. Famous INTPs: Socrates, Rene Descartes, Tiger Woods, and Albert Einstein. (Courtesy of myersbriggs.org)

 

[ckm]

INFP. I swear, I get INFP in damn near every test I've ever done.

 

[Latro]

INFJ. My face is the rarest type of face apparently.

 

[Darby]

Your result for The Myers-Briggs Physiognomy, or Personality-by-Facial-Features Test ...
INTP

31% Extroverted, 42% Sensing, 61% Thinking, 62% Perceiving

I've vowed to stay away from okcupid forever, but I wonder, what are the criteria for this? What is an INTP (or other type) supposed to look like?

I guess INTPs are supposed to look pretty "average" with a big(ish) forehead

 

[xainziha]

ISTP, so close

 

[RubberDucky451]

INFP

25% on Thinking?

Ouch. I must look very bored.

 

[Adymus]

INTJ

38% Extroverted, 26% Sensing, 61% Thinking, 47% Perceiving




Okay that is closer than I expected for a test that is total bullshit.

 

[JUN]

Whoa... This is total bullshit.

ISFJ

50% Extroverted, 56% Sensing, 25% Thinking, 47% Perceiving

You are quiet, friendly, responsible, and conscientious, as well as committed and steady in meeting your obligations. You are thorough, painstaking, and accurate. Loyal and considerate, you notice and remember specifics about people who are important to you, concerned with how others feel. You strive to create an orderly and harmonious environment at work and at home.

 

[bananaphallus]

This sh*t is total f*ckin' horseh*t. I'm furious.

ESFJ

[shoeless]

INTJ

38% Extroverted, 42% Sensing, 57% Thinking, 47% Perceiving






i know it's complete bullshit, but i think it's kind of interesting actually how close i got to my type. ho-hum.

 

[cheese]

This sh*t is total f*ckin' horseh*t. I'm furious.

ESFJ

62% Extroverted, 60% Sensing, 50% Thinking, 41% Perceiving

We must totally have, like, the exact same face.

 

[bananaphallus]

We must totally have, like, the exact same face.

Clearly. This test is that accurate.

INTJ

i know it's complete bullshit, but i think it's kind of interesting actually how close i got to my type. ho-hum.

Huh, that's interesting... I didn't think we looked that similar.

 

[Agent Intellect]

Huh, that's interesting... I didn't think we looked that similar.

The test is a self assessment - do you think our perceptions of ourselves are accurate?

 

[jacoluksevicius]

Am I an ISFJ? I don't think so.

About the question race=type, I've read somethings interesting

eg.: the ancients (if i'm not wrong, the greeks) believed in 4 types called the four temperaments (or humors), and they said it was possible to define to which one you are by your appearance, like, the melancholy is generally the tallest, while the fleumatic is the shortest one.

and once I read a book about chinese physiognomy, however, it was more focused in fortune-telling, not personality, also, it was said "What is writen is based on the oriental appearance and may need some changes to other ethnics".

 

[Minuend]

Wat? One finger between eyebrow and hairline?

ESFP

73% Extroverted, 72% Sensing, 46% Thinking, 68% Perceiving

XD

 

[Magnetosphere]

I think they wanted you to turn your hand "the long way" - I was somewhat confused by that question too, because when I think of "finger length", I think of... well, the length of my finger.

My result:

ISTJ

46% Extroverted, 53% Sensing, 57% Thinking, 41% Perceiving

You are quiet, serious, earn success by thoroughness and dependability. You are also practical, matter-of-fact, realistic, and responsible. You decide logically what should be done and work toward it steadily, regardless of distractions. You take pleasure in making everything orderly and organized – your work, your home, your life, and you value traditions and loyalty.

Praises be to Allah, for I am not an ISTJ. Aside from the logic and the introversion, that's, like, the antithesis of me.

This means we're similar looking.
No face

 

[GYX_Kid]

This means we're similar looking.
No face

right, so you're the one with that face and i'm wildly emotionally expressive

we're playing pretend
