The ENFP Brain - Dr. Dario Nardi Author of "Neuroscience of Personality" | PersonalityHacker.com

ProfilerTraini... | Shot live on the main stage of the Profiler Training Class in Washington DC - Former UCLA professor and author, Dario Nardi, has discovered that people of different personality types don't merely rely on different brain regions -- they use their brains in fundamentally different ways.
In this talk Dr. Nardi demonstrates how the ENFP brain shows up on EEG machines and scanning devices.
Using colorful anecdotes and brain imagery, Dr. Nardi shares key insights from his lab. Among these insights: how people of different personalities can find and sustain a state of creative flow. This talk references the Myers-Briggs personality type system.

“There is no such thing as a stupid question” Me as an enfp: I hate when people ask stupid questions

[@MoPoppins]

An INTJ asks: 1) Is it because the answer is “obvious,” at least to you? 2) What do you do when YOU have a “stupid” question? Do you ask it because you really want/need to know the answer, or do you keep it inside out of embarrassment, knowing that derision is possible/imminent? 🤔 Thanks in advance to anyone who responds! 🤙

[@barabasztrzynasty1704]

@@MoPoppins Might be a late answer but whatever. As an ENFP i can answer: 1: We may not like stupid questions because we consider everything we do then reconsider, then think about it deeply, then look at it from other perspective and we already had a whole conversation with ourselves that explains every aspect of something and someone just asking it so shallowly seems little ignorant mainly because it's for us super obvious. Then we get little annoyed because we have to explain it, so we usually do it with our deep and little quirky way and thus we might seem a little weird and intense (we know it - that's the main reason of annoyance but some of us really love it. Most likely those with more extroverted side - like me and enjoy the silence of amusement about a thing they never thought about .) 2: As for myself i ask every question i can and usually do it in details so i can understand why i can't understand something and the subject LOL. There is also a skill that we naturally have, which is being present and actually focusing on someone, when he tells us a thing we were curious about. So if I ask a question and someone answers, I try to get as much informations as i can and listen respectfully. People love it. ENFPs love to share their knowledge and learn new things (although they aren't usually something they should be doing to make a living, most likely just to feed our hungry of informations brains). I love to confront people with things i learnt and discuss about deeper meaning of subjects. English is not my first language but i tried to express how i see it as well as i could :)

This talk was so amazing and interesting I feel like it read me like a book and put into words exactly how I feel most of the time like I finally understand why I am drawn to certain things and notice/ think about things differently than some of my friends. It seems to all make sense perfectly and my mind is blown!!

[@essennagerry]

I'm ENFP and I also have ADHD and probably CPTSD too. A lot of ADHDers say they experiences negatives and positives. I see it this way: the ADHD spectrum of positives and negatives could be layed out in this way: Only positives: You're a healthy ENFP Positives and negatives: regular ole ADHD with or without other conditions Only negatives: CPTSD, or ADHD with CPTSD, regardless of personality type. Now I feel super weird bcs I feel I'm an ENFP with ADHD and CPTSD lol but if I didn't figure thigs out in the order in which I did it would have been very hard to figure it out. It had to go like personality --> neurodivergency --> trauma. I tried seeig the trauma before I had seen the neurodivergency and I couldn't. It had to fall into place in this order. It will probably take me a few years to heal but I'm actually quite excited to make videos about these three things. ADHD is so difficult to figure ot and people often struggle to distinguish what is ADHD, what is just personality, what is trauma, what could be related to another mental health issue, etc. I think I happen to be a combo that has an interesting perspective that might help people distinguish. But I think I need to do some personal healing first and grow more in my personal life and then I can attempt to put out my view. But I hope this was interesting to read!

adhd is more than just trouble focusing. people with adhd ignore social boundaries, things like pushing people, pulling hair, spontaneously roughhousing at inappropriate times in inappropriate places, taking other people's belongings without permission, refusing to wait your turn, not just being impatient about waiting. A friend of mine is actually adhd, he used to jump out his bedroom window at night and sneak around in neighbors yards, getting into their stuff, etc. That kind of socially inappropriate behavior should be part of an adhd diagnosis, and its really pretty awful they just slap everyone with adhd to collect a check.

[@CaptainPnut1]

gisforgary that is true yeah I was talking to a friend of mine who has that type of adhd too. She was saying she would beat up her brother and got into a lot of trouble at school. There are a few different types of adhd (in my humble research anyway), I however don’t have that hyperactive type, I would seem to have the one that is generally missed by teachers and everyone because I basically just blend in (inattentive type). It is a spectrum though so what one person with adhd has symptoms of another person might not. (Stop me if I’m ranting 😅)

Totally resonate with the description of my type (ENFP) and at the same time I think this type of inquiry is about as reliable as astrology.

The first thing I thought when I saw the length of the video was ‘no enfp will sit through this entirety of this video in one sitting...’ 😂😬

[@artbykuhoo]

i went and ate lunch, did some drawing and the came back...and realized I dropped my tea last night - so I had to go clean that up. ad now i' like - I should really go practice dance...and I still have 30 mins left

[@camrongraziano1254]

I did not sit through it all....I tried, gave up at about 1 h 30 m 🤷🏼‍♂️ he stops talking directly about us. 😅

[@neurologicalworms]

I am an INFP and unllike my extroverted counterparts I actually picked this particular video because of how long it was. 😂 I figured a longer video means I don't have to keep going back to find a new video on the topic every 5 minutes. Anyway I really enjoy the research done by this man and would love to keep hearing more as he continues to research. I learned a lot here. Love you ENFPs. You're really my kinda people❤

[@gronkigrolsk6782]

I found this so difficult to listen to. Think I will have to come back to it, was deliberate to stop ENFP’s having an insight into themselves 😂😂

[@pearl6038]

I watched it all! BOOYA! (I took the comments as motivation - determined to prove it wrong) 😅 Dario is great. I’ve never gotten close to an INTJ so this was an interesting observational opportunity. I recognise a trait in myself - the propensity to trail off down every single thought in detail so no one can misconstrue my meaning. I feel more understanding for sensory types who just want you to get to the point 😅 I feel proud of the fact we female ENFPs are more inclined to all over neural firing, and more self compassion that that’s pretty darn exhausting so no wonder I can’t do and practically achieve the things more linear (boring) types can and do 😜

In 2nd grade, I was thought to maybe have ADD or ADHD, but I was just a socially active intuitive, INFJ. A Dr. recommended that I stop drinking drinks with red dye and high sugar content; which obviously helped, but yeah I can see how intuitives can be seen to have ADD or ADHD at a young age. I wonder how many are just put on medication to make them focus instead of them developing a framework in which to focus from and in.

[@jedizombiekiller9065]

For a 2nd, and probably now 3rd grader, thats a great observation. Great to see that prodigies still exist.

[@DanniBby]

What’s interesting is that it could actually be both as if intuitive could present as adhd because they do actually have a different dopamine and interest based nervous system than others.

This is incredibly interesting with the p/j convergence. I’m a 20 year old enfp female who has noticed and taken the test multiple times in the past 3 years and noticed I am more or less 50% on the tests now where before I was definitely far leaning on the p. I’ve actually been looking for an explanation and this is perfect!

[@tatsymarie3196]

I had an idea for a couple of experiments. They may have already been tried, but just in case this is what I thought of. The first one was having a person of one type blindfolded, and having a person from each of the other types randomly and quietly enter the room near them to see how and if there is a brain response. the second was to have one person of each type seated in a circle with opposing types across from one another (like poles) and see what responses happen. I would love to know if you've already tried these, or if you do what happens.

[@johnsonstringperform]

[@wenhanzhou5826]

I am on the INFJ spectrum, I have heard that ENFPs are great people, so it pleases me that there is a 2h video I can learn from. It is funny how the actual ENFPs (as far as I can see in the comment sections), don't watch these kind of videos :))

[@AngelicaAtomic]

I am a 40 year old female ENFP but I’ve followed traditionally masculine career paths. I can’t wait to be age 55 and have my whole brain light up again. I think this is where we ENFPs are meant to be without the toxic masculinity culture (even as I kind of have a love for that culture as it was what it got me to go somewhere with my life.)

[@justwondrin]

BRAVA!🎉 I’ve found my people! Thank you so much for this. I’m going to bring this to my Vocational Rehab counselor. I’m on disability, with a multi-faceted career involving communications/media/marketing/performance, 80% of the time self employed. Trying to find part-time work on disability approaching 60 is proving to be a big challenge. Vocational Rehab usually trades in pretty boring jobs. My counselor has been amazing, giving me years to get healthy, and totally open to helping me be self-emplowed again someday.

Oh this is making so much sence. My Final Project on Fashion Design was named: "The application of sculptural fashion in the justification of colors from the perspective of Blind people" Semiotics | Fashion | Art | Inclusion The main Project was seven Fashion Sculptures all in white but representing the 7 colors os the rainbow. It was to make a point that even the people tnat couldn't see colors could explain them. Just the same way as typical people, cuz we can't explain the color efect so we use Semiothics, cultural assossiations of each. Example: Red: intensity blood war passion rage hot Blue: calm pure nature cold ocean So the sculptures were using the brainstorming of eash color. Red was metal spikes exagerated with roses and velvet Blue was very curvy and I made it seems like a splash of water and more minimalistic All 7 were white cuz they were there to represent the colors not to show colors. I wasn't good at doing the project, i passed but not happy with the results of the pieces. I was overthinking frozen and went back to coke cuz of the stress panic attacks PRESSURE AND DEAD LINE This thing needed to be a master piece full of details also the ressearch was too poor blw that I understand psychology things I was just a creative disney princess that needed time to express it. And seeing now the urge to do all things at once so chaotic damn I was exausted for years having insanely great ideas but never had one project done. So I am focus on body-mind health and also a medium at my religion(afro Brazilian called "Umbanda" ) Transformation to butterfly already started and stuff os getting organized, investkng money, carreer, and already helping tons of people on duty. Why do I need to do everything by my ownknowing my weaknesses, I can sell my fish and get the right people with the habilities to build a structured thing and I'm not rushing things now. Things goes wrong, but I'm not afraid of living anymore. Go get some vitamin d b6 b12 melatonin do mindfullness do exercises be creative and build a dinamic routine for your mind and body say nooo to cortisol and go build your own fucking disney castleeeee.

[@bellaeastwood4292]

I’m an ENTJ (INTJs cousin we have the exact same functions just different order) who dated an ENFP for a very long time and have had many ENFP friends. I will say you guys are EXTREMELY likeable. I have Ni as my second function so I love your intuitive nature. You guys have good ideas too and it’s very fun to go on these abstract mental adventures with you guys. I do have some constructive criticism to give, (assuming you’re an ENFP) so maybe you can work on this. As a dominant Te user, logic is my way of life (same with INTJs btw). My problem with the ENFP is it’s not possible to reason with logic. You guys just don’t respond to it no matter how hard I try to break it down. You guys will just do whatever the hell you feel like doing, and then you find yourself at 35 years old and still having done nothing with your lives (sorry if that’s a rude wake up call). The problem is you don’t listen to peoples advice no matter how much sense it makes. You’re more concerned with having fun and socializing that you avoid taking on any responsibility or boring tasks that bring you closer to your goals. Fortunately you’re very likable so you can pretty much just get other people to help you with the hard stuff, but how far can you really go if you never feel like taking on the workload? Of course it’s uncomfortable working on the process and I understand that being a low Se user definitely doesn’t make it easier for you, but you NEED to focus and work on that. Your functions are like a muscle and they will become stronger the more you use them. There’s much more to life then just shooting the shit with your friends and wasting all your time accomplishing nothing. Pick out a ONE goal, and work on it RELENTLESSLY. I know you guys have a new goal every week but really try to pick the most important one (buying a house, building a business, finishing school, learning a language, starting a KZbin channel, etc). Quit chasing after fun all the time and go accomplish at least one thing and I promise you will feel so proud of yourself. You can start with working 10 minutes a day on your goal and slowly work your way up. The key is to be CONSISTENT and to do it every. Single. Day. With no excuses like oh I’m hungover, or oh I have to go to a party soon, or oh I actually my dog needs a bath. Just focus on your goal, and work until you’ve reached it. Quit fucking around.

I am a left handed Enfp. I think that the comment pertaining to that, it's at about 1:18:30, is interesting. I wonder perhaps if it could play out in my musicianship and fine motor skills. I have always been good at memorization, and I have been playing piano for over ten years. Just a curious observation. I am still terrible at dancing and other larger motor skills and coordination related actions, though.
