I wanted to see what famous people were the same profile as me, and so I retook the test -- in earnest, and came up with a completely different result:

Extraverted 1, Intuitive 75, Feeling12, Perceiving 22.

The difference isn't huge, except for going from Judging 11 to perceiving 22 is pretty significant, further confirming my suspicions.  However, the ENFP profile explains my "silly switch."

No kidding. This paragraph is particular is frighteningly accurate for me:

This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. :-) This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.

I think "judging" has to do with evaluating things, weighing consequences.  So maybe you're impulsive and spontaneous?

My thinking number went up to 50 today (INTJ: 89, 38, 50, 56).  I don't know what questions I answered differently.  I suspect the change has to do with the fact that yesterday I was very distracted. 

My individual numbers are high compared to most of yours.  I guess I have a very clear-cut personality.

I think this is garbage or I have multiple personalities. Those questions are too hard! Sometimes the answer is sometimes and I didn't know what to pick. Most of the time that's the case. And today half of my four letters are different! How can I ever know myself if a scientific personality test can't know me?!

I am going to do an experiment right now and I'll post the results when I'm done.

Julie, please assure us that your experiment is not with your new gun.

I also checked my 2nd description and thought it was more accurate, but I also feel like the Meyers-Briggs descriptions are like astrological sign descriptions -- partly vague enough to describe wide swaths of people, and partly self-fulfilling prophecy.

I would be glad to run these numbers, but don't know how to compare when people have entirely different categories (ie, some people have a "judging" score, some don't. Is the absence of a score equivalent to a zero in that category? If so, it's odd that everyone has exactly 4 non-zero scores. Let's go to the mall!)

Here's something strange; according to the site everybody's been quoting, only 1% of the population is INFJ, but in our "sample" of 18 FOT, there are 6 of us. Tom's an INFJ magnet!

Let me go all mathy and point out the enormity of this; if you plucked out 18 people at random from the general population and accurately assessed their Myers-Briggs profiles, the odds against having 6 or more of them be INFJ is about 42 million to 1 against. Good God almighty, what nightmarish Twilight Zone scenario have I stepped into?

Say, Dave, why not create categorical variables with one side of the scale negative (judging) and the other side of the scale positive. Then us non-parametric statistics to provide an accurate description of the average fot.

I could never stop laughing at a Lifetime movie long enough to cry, if my tear-ducts still worked, which I have to suspect they don't.

Say, Dave, why not create categorical variables with one side of the scale negative (judging) and the other side of the scale positive.

I could be that my sublime ignorance of the science of statistics is leading me to impute unfairly negative connotations to the word "negative" in the quotation above.

I didn't mean negative as in "bad", but just a direction, like left or right. I feel Buffcoat was trying to make a joke.

I am intrigued by Julie's suggestions. Has sparked me to determine who is the most "typical" of all FOT, in terms of Myers-Briggs assessment. Here's what I get; most typical near the top, least typical near the bottom.

Dorvid
yesno
dave from knoxville
Shazam
g-stampgirl
ben
Pidgeon
masterofsparks
The Hinterlands
Clint
Big Plastic Head
Groteface Killah
Julie
Regular Joe

I think so, too.  And I actually did know that you were using "negative" as a direction.  But, given its other, more common meaning, who knows what subconscious motives guided your decision to assign "judging" to the negative side of the scale?

DfK, how about correlating the results here with those in the political spectrum thread?

I think typical in FOT terms doesn't translate into real-world typical. 

Since I'm not a comic book artist or a webmaster, I don't think I'd really be able to represent FOTs at the UN properly.

Honestly, I have no idea how that would work.

You could make some categorical variables, like make Judging negative and the other one positive. Then you could assign a category to each of the four quadrants of the political thing. Then you could use non-parametric statistics to see what the correlation is. That way, the small sample size doesn't matter.

Oh! Can you use The Wilcox statistic? You know, the one where you make two lists of things and count the number of ways it can happen? Who cares if it's right! Oh, but you can't put it in order to rank things. Well, get out your big red nonparametric book and figure it out! There aren't many statisticians here! I will believe whatever you say if it's believable. DO IT!!! NOW!

Ok so then I'd like to see my list. My bf Greg is an INFP, if you can include him too :) (Although I already know we're opposites in many ways)

Thanks, Dave!

I gotta have those numbers, fellow Power Caller!

Oh boo I don't have them. You can leave him off then :)

Thanks Dave,

I noticed we're fairly close on your list.  However, there exits one MAJOR difference between us: I hate lists.

How are you arriving at these results, Dave?  Some of the lists startle me in relation to others (don't ask me for examples--I don't remember, and I'm not going to backtrack and try to reconstruct).

Simple sum squares analysis.

I think it means that you take  the difference between the two people in each category, square it (to get rid of the positive or negative sign so that youre comparing apples to apples) and then compare the results across the population.

I think thats how you would do it for one parameter, but i'm not sure how you correlate the 4 aspects, unless you took the difference in all 4 areas, summed those and then squared the results.

Can I get an amen?

Are you sure the results are normally distributed? You business types think everything is!

with the given data, any chance you can convert it into a grid?  people love grids.  something color coordinated from red to green perhaps?

shade of grey then?  or how about just a grid in a chess board pattern?  even if it makes no sense it would be fun to look at.

i think it will make as much sense as the lists, and the lists are so awesome.
