INTP, with the INT very definite and the P not quite as much.
It's interesting to see the types on this website. When I took the test as part of a friend's Psych. thing, she gave me the descriptions at the end and, while they went into a lot of detail about jobs and personal relationships, they didn't mention anything about sports. It would be interesting to see the breakdown between not just team/individual sports, but sprint/endurance, time/style, and so on.

I'm an ENFJ (borderline ENFP I think I was called an "emergent" ENFJ) when I did the second part of the testing... Hilarious. My husband is an ISTJ. And we are like night and day. Seriously. We have the same core values, but if he likes something, chances are I won't... If I like something, I can be sure it rubs him the wrong way.

I'm wordy, he's concise... I like to be touchy feely, and he doesn't... He likes to read the directions, I don't. He likes to assemble things, and my worst case scenario is a blue print or other such directions for assembly. (AAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!) He likes math, I don't.

These little sayings are making me LAUGH out loud at my desk... and I've got so much work to try to accomplish today!!!

Thanks, Renee!!!

I thought I liked you, Possum! I'm an ENFJ too... I'm borderline P v J, but I trend toward J.

ISFJ although I do not serve family joyfully. I do need to relax exactly right...and I have to EARN every last drop of relaxation, and even then I feel really guilty about it. Thank god tri training is more like work.

Interesting assessment. And fun thread.

INTP... at least I think that's true, as long as I didn't miss anything... and if you don't think so, prove it...

I'm an enigma. I get different in every category except "I" everytime I take it. That makes me IXXX. Hmmmm.

I hate having to give a black and white answer to most of these types of questions - there is usually a "but" or "what if" in my head before I reply! I guess that is why I came out as a "Counsellor Idealists" no matter how I responded. :)

I did this test about 15 years ago for work. LOL - I think I was an extrovert then though!

ESTJ - is anyone surprised. Total Guardian. All those years as a reporter for a public newspaper, sticking it to da' man and crooked politicians. Now I work to help release children from poverty. My motto is "Save the world, save yourself!" And I'm sure people are sooooo surprised that I'm an extrovert! And I don't think I have a feeling bone in my body - well maybe one or two. Ha.

ISTJ, 50/50 with INTJ ... Hmm...

Going back and reading the descriptions in the thread... frightening.

I used to be ESTJ when I was young and bossy, but I mellowed with age into an ENTJ. I just wish I could be a little less "J". My husband is an INFP (who took 19 years to finish his master's degree) and we'll be walking down the street and see a house with flaking paint and we might both speak at the same time. I'll say, "They need to paint their house." He'll say, "Those paint chips look like flower petals, aren't they pretty?"

I've got an opinion on everything and the E makes me say it out loud. My saving grace is that I don't actually expect anything to DO anything with my opinion, but they don't always understand that and feel "judged" by my judgments. Fancy that. Big sigh. I've learned there's one type that I need to avoid - they make me nervous always throwing fits about some offense I've inadvertantly caused them. Sadly, I never remember which type that is. Maybe ISFP. They drive me crazy harboring their imagined grudges, projecting dastardly motives onto me. They just don't get that I'm an oblivious puppy just romping over their feelings blithely with no harm intended.

ISTP here. But the I/E and the P/J were not decided by big margins, and the S/N was a coin-toss of 1%.

apparently Oprah is also an ENFJ. DUH, we have so much in common, except that she is black and I am white, she is rich and I am poor, and a few other small technicalities!
