MBTI has taught me to be more tolerant of other types of people, instead of seeing some differences as faults. They're just different.

[@adamfattal468]

Pretty flawed takeaway... “oh he’s not a dick he’s just an ELKP”

[@Zactastical]

@@adamfattal468 While I wouldn't conduce any type to "being a dick" - your example could be an accurate depiction of someone realising they have made poor judgements. Now you can make the argument that the quote in question could be a naive claim, but that would just be a seperate issue of it being poorly rationalised.

[@allanc_me763]

I understand that MBTI is not a hard science but I am so glad that I learned about it. It totally changed my perspective, especially how I treat myself. I used to be a more toxic version of INFJ ... I learned MBTI around the same time Frank started his YT channel and I follwed him since then

[@wertfasd]

Its not hard science but the Carl Jung's cognitive functions are which makes it slight more correct compared to other personality systems.

[@jodawgsup]

@@wertfasd no, it is as accurate as a horoscope, it has no scientific worth whatsoever. there are no "personality types"

[@wertfasd]

@@jodawgsup so you talking to me being so sure about yourself is not a personality? Anything else to say mr scientist? ;)

[@jodawgsup]

@@wertfasd no, i am disagreeing with you because you are wrong, which might be a part of what you might commonly call a "personality", which has nothing to do with the non-scientific classification of personalities by myers-briggs. as i said, it is equal to horoscopes.

[@wertfasd]

@@jodawgsup It is different from horoscopes due to the fact that you had to answer a set of questions to reach a certain type. Now whether those set of questions are accurately constructed is another topic to discuss but through these set of questions you yourself are just describing yourself and the personality is just a 'summary' of what could be your personality. Of course this is not entirely scientific as no one peer reviewed the process but it does make sense for someone if he/she tried studying his/her personality type than just assuming the results of his/her type is correct. Horoscopes on the other hand is just based on your birthday which really doesn't correlate to anything significant. Or you mean to tell me statistics are unscientific since its basing off of surveys and questionnaires to people possibly picked with bias. Your turn Mr scientist who didn't really provide any constructive argument so far ;)

[@borntoexplore982]

I look at MBTI as a tool that you can use to learn more about yourself and other people. Knowing your partner’s type or your child’s type and being aware of that type’s tendencies/ characteristics can be very helpful. Who doesn’t want to be understood?

[@jaymoney522]

I used to study and read this stuff non stop many years ago after reading an almost intrusively accurate description of my "type". There is definitely a lot of practical uses for being able to type or roughly type people around you and of course, a lot to be learned about your own strengths and weaknesses. I think its very important to remember however, what the word personality means. It stems from the root "persona" which literally means mask in latin. Your personality isn't really you, its just the mask you put on to engage with the world. But when you take that mask off, thats when life really begins!

[@carikabester8335]

Interesting perspective!

[@Felix-dx2qw]

Your personality is you as much as your skin and bones, if you put up a 'mask' to engage the world with you can never take it off unless you are literally acting or have taken a heavy dose of psychedelics, even then it lurks in the background. Your persona encompasses your readiness to share or withhold information from people and is very much the real you whether you feel it as a subconscious force or not.

[@jaymoney522]

@@Felix-dx2qw "Your personality is you as much as your skin and bones are you" - I completely agree with this statement. If a little piece of skin falls off is it still you? If you lose a finger is it still you? The two most fundemental misidentifications are with the body, and the mind. The truth is you are neither of those things- something far greater!

[@Felix-dx2qw]

@@jaymoney522 You are all those things, the far greater being you talk about is dependant on your biological self to exist and experience life in this dimension. We are the universe experiencing itself as individuals. I think what you're not identifying is the difference between an individual and the universe they emerged from, there are far greater forces at play within and around us but we are just a piece of that. I think like most people, you fancy the idea that you're a multidimensional 'greater' being or force held in a biological shell, but really we are just the shell until eons have passed and all the energy from us, our minds to our skin along with the trees and stars has returned to it's other, 'greater' state.

[@Brickwilliams]

i don’t understand what you mean by mask. I try my best to make others feel good and to act nice and stuff. and i’ve taken the advice of “not caring what anyone thinks of you” and it makes for a pretty fucking miserable life. as far as i’m concerned all wear a mask around people all i want, but that “mask” makes others feel great, as well as me.

[@dark_sunset]

yes i am soothed

[@gerudo_thief]

Though this not be a hard science, it sure has helped me identify how people communicate and what they prioritize. Because of that, I can improve the way I understand and interact with others. I also have this belief that a "perfect type" is a balance of all the traits. So if we are too far into one side of any single trait, we should maybe evaluate ourselves and how that behavior could be impacting us negatively. For example, there's nothing wrong with being introverted, but you still need some kind of regular social interaction. I often have to force myself to make plans, and I always feel better after I do. I like to see personality theory as more of a tool than anything!

It makes sense that people often get NF on the tests. NFs are most likely the ones drawn to personality tests and typology in the first place. Most sensors are like I don’t have time for this or don’t take it seriously. A lot of thinkers would be like what’s the point, this is nonsense, and just point out how flawed it all is.

[@kinseydesignsbrands]

This is an unexpected collaboration and I’m so here for it!

[@gtgrandom]

I think MBTI is a fantastic tool for learning more about the people around you and their thinking processes (and I’m a scientist). The function stack helped me understand so much more about myself and my friends and family. There’s absolutely merit there (more so than the Big 5, imo). Obviously, it’s just a template for someone’s personality and doesn’t cover any of the nuances of upbringing, trauma, etc. And it really doesn’t have a scientific basis, like Frank said. But it sure is helpful!

[@rampirita5643]

You’re delusional if you think myers-briggs has more merit than big five lmao

[@YotaQuebill]

@@rampirita5643 lol, mbti absolutely helped me to get my family together since we were broken home through the cognitive functions they have explained and i started with that and to have my siblings took the test . mbti helped me understand and get rid of the storm of self identity crisis. now, people like you who reject mbti out right is definetly ignorance, i like big 5, but mbti is more superior, thats the fact. can big 5 helped me to get my family back? or to direct me to be be more aware of my self, since i am an enfj, and the top reason ilove mbti is the test is free and easy to access and understand

@@AssassienSilently Interesting thought. Through my teens and twenties, it was separation anxiety and deep depression with anger issues, I calmed down mostly in my thirties, but as I hit my forties, the anxiety that had been building since I was twenty five blew up into two full disorders. That's when I went on meds permanently. I not sure I would really say it was an unhealthy version of anything, just mentally unstable. But I don't know the unhealthy side of the types all that well, so who knows.

[@AssassienSilently]

@@MsJaymeC well as i have read before yes ,each persona type has a healthy and unhealthy traits and its due to the environment alone and each differ from each other as i mentioned the unhealthy estp,infj.also each person has that 4 sides of the mind for u it makes total sense ur istj inspirational after maturity (your thirties) made u think in a calmer way and in slower life pace , I can’t really agree or disagree about the anxiety thing that was building up though

[@brianbauer3148]

I had never heard of personality types till a few years ago. I also had noticed my tenancy to approach things a certain way and was working to be more balanced in the areas that were making it hard to communicate with others. Once I took the test it was crazy how it described exactly what I already noticed. It mainly helps me to confirm what I already knew and explore how to use that information to improve my communication with other and get out of corners I box myself into.

Im 70 this month and did the test a few times out of the book Please Understand Me in my teens! I was INFJ. Borderline on the I N F but extreme J. So now I learn Im rare and it actually explains a lot for me over my life because making true connections with people just hasnt happened. My opportunty to find greatness are very limited in relationships and jobs. Im a loner since childhood. I tell people im an introvert with a motormouth….at least when I choose to communicate. I dont always feel like it. I need to be triggered by interesting stuff….deeper not superficial chatter. Ive gotten less extreme in the J part which has contributed to my sanity but it took a lot of decades! Being misunderstood is a nonevent. I think that happens to a lot of people. I figured out my narsisstic mom was basically riddled with insecurities in my teens and forgave her for her hard to be with stuff. She could see herself pretty well with therapy and wasnt that bad. Its too bad…she could have been more happy otherwise! And I could have been more understood by this deeply intellegent person.. she did nick name me Sympathy. Instaed of my name Cynthia. Oh….she came because she gave me the book and helped me understand it. The book could be more clear in my opinion. I guess I should have been a teacher. I would have made a great teacher in certain subjects. Art mainly. Yes I had hard to treat depression before I was even 20. Some really dark reality things. Very little denial….if any.

Mbti isnt scientific but you can make deductions about peoples type via the scientific method. Mbti is a measurement of how one makes decisions, and which axes of perception and judgement lead them to those decisions. People tend to have a dominant preference for a specific axis of judgement and a specific axis of perception, and people tend to have a primary function that dominates their decision making.

Took the MBTI a few months after joining a Fortune 500 company. First goal is for teams to recognize how to work better together based on work preferences. ENTJs are going to be the hard driving project leaders who might need to fire people. INTPs will make sure the technical work is done correctly. ENTPs will generate a lot of ideas and the ESTJs will follow up on the details and schedule. The F types will be in Human Resources. I could go on but it’s easy to see why corporations like it. I found out why I clashed with one certain type and try to stay out of their way!

As an ENTP, can confirm. I was an ops manager at a startup but spent way more time generating ideas on how to improve efficiency, generate revenue, etc. than actually managing my staff. I should really go into consulting..

Hello, I'm Italian but I follow you, with simultaneous translation subtitled. And, of course, I understand English a little bit. However I agree with you, and in my opinion, who says that MbTI is a pseudoscientific idea, well it is usually "extroverted thought" . Anyway, of course, maybe the Mbti system. It is not always precise, it does not enjoy certainty, because it is based on people, and as we know, personalities are not cut perfectly, They evolve for the better and for the worse, continuously, it is unthinkable to have a clear shot. But at least Mbti is a system, which is better than the unconscious idea that anyone can ever make. It is based on data, not bias. It is active, not passive. It is an important tool.

[@GoHerping]

This was interesting, I still don't see why people obsess over it so much though to the point of putting it on their resume or bio. Even if there was deep purpose in the test, the way it works feels like it persuades people to answer as who you want to be, and not necessarily who you are and I assume it takes an outside person to interview and answer on your behalf to be accurate. I've taken it each once a year for 4 years now, and have never gotten the same result. I went from INFP to INFJ to INTP and apparently now I'm an ISTP which means I've received every letter except E. I can honestly read the description of any personality result as long as it starts with "I" and they all sound accurate, which makes it feel a lot like a generic horoscope just to make you feel good or give some false sense of confidence or understanding. While it all confuses me, one thing I know for sure is I would quit any job that makes me take this test lol. Also, I was very excited to see another chatting with pop up on the homescreen :)

[@parkourandfreerunning4214]

The reason why you got different results was because of how you answered it. You see when you finish the test it shows the percentage for example 51% introverted and 49% extroverted. This would mean you got an 'I' for introversion. If you answer 1 or 2 questions differently the next time you do it, you might get 49% introverted and 51% extroverted which will make you an 'E'. The same goes for the 3 other letters. Also yes, some personality types has similar traits but if you dive deeper into it, there will be a lot of differences. Sometimes they don't match perfectly but one of my friend matches ISTP perfectly. Everything it says about her is true and there is no other types she is similar to. For example, stubborn, can seem cold, easily bored, struggle with long term commitment, hates when people help her, likes being alone and she likes being alone more than anyone I met except for one of my best friends who's even more introverted. I was able to learn a lot from it and she confirmed it so I know more about what to and what no to do. Also it's better to the sakinorva cognitive functions test than the 16 personality types test website. It's more accurate. So yeah, do that test and it will show you a column of what you are most likely to be. Research deeper into each type and you will see the differences. Don't just read the personality off the main website.

[@zdenda66alorddandas86]

I think the people who obsess over it usually understand the theory beyond the tests and descriptions and they take into consideration all the factors that you mentioned, like most people in the MBTI community agree that the tests aren't accurate. And so they study the theory itself and then they type purely according to it, independant of the tests. My tests, for example, show that I am an ISTP. I, however, know that I am an ISFP.

OPS is really doing a great job trying to make MBTI objective and somewhat scientific.

Frank James obviously saw a comment on one of his videos about pseudoscience and is indirectly responding to that comment in this video. It's a type of manipulation that influences how you think about someone that INFJs use because I do it all the time

Hey andrew!.. I've been watching since the beginning, always stoked about your content! That is all...

INFJ people we know what we are without needing to take the test. I have a bachelor's in psych worked in the medical field 30+ years, if anyone wanted to take the test and be classified as one then 95% of people would be one and that's not the case. I'm an extreme "sensitive" since childhood, total empath which is why I stand back and observe, people can drain my energy which is why I prefer to be alone, but can be completely social in one on one interactions. I would like to know if you have educational background or even work experience in the area? Or if you just started KZbin for money. I myself was administered the 500 question Minnesota multiphasic personality inventory by my psychologist 15 years ago and had no personality disorders. I'm a libra and true to my sign. I find 90% of people are their astrological sign, I have a mom and daughter who are Scorpio.

Libra and infj here. I think the set of stars and planets can affect... but there is a lot of fantasy in that topic. I find that interesting, but religious people manipulate the facts. Anyway, it's just slightly related to mbti.

[@Jjj6212]

@@vguerrero3999 astrological signs are in no way associated with any religion whatsoever. I'm a spiritual person but I don't belong to any organized religion but astrology has nothing to do with any religious beliefs. In my life I have been mostly bombarded with Scorpios, Gemini and Taurus and they all fit their sign completely. I fit the definition of the libra traits. So, in 54 years of observation of this it's not just coincidental. I also don't believe in coincidences.

[@theothererik1128]

@@Jjj6212 I'm a very-INFJ and allegedly a Taurus... /shrug I don't believe in coincidences either. Astrology means nothing to me, MBTI only suggests some things. I believe totally in Paul's Gospel of the Messiah, Jesus -- and I am not the least bit religious.

I personally think the literature supports, and gives you a more accurate look into your self, using the five factor model of personality. OCEAN openess to new expierience, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, extraversion, and Agreeableness. Also the history around the MTBI is questionable... the 5 factor model is the gold standard amongst the majority of personality psychologists.

I could have just put my iPad down and started doing something else more productive, but instead I wrote this comment about the interviewer introducing the guest as an “expert”. The expression on his face immediately thereafter is very interesting as it’s unclear to me if he’s comfortable or uncomfortable with that.

[@hardboiled2000]

Infjs take a moment to warm up, they are kind of uncomfortable with flattery, also confidence issues
