Personality Types and Swinging

[BradAndJanet]

I finally found the time to take the test and I'm ENFJ, like CuriousFemale40 and Sweet_Candy.

I scored:

Extroverted 33
Intuitive 62
Feeling 12
Judging 33

moderately expressed extrovert
distinctively expressed intuitive personality
slightly expressed feeling personality
moderately expressed judging personality

Interesting...

Extroverted 33
Intuitive 50
Thinking 1
Judging 44

You are:

* moderately expressed extrovert
* moderately expressed intuitive personality
* slightly expressed thinking personality
* moderately expressed judging personality

It's pretty accurate I think. I am pretty moderate in most of my views and personality traits. But I think I am much more than "slightly expressed thinking personality". Mrs. WS would agree to that also. My mind never stops.

Mrs. WS hasn't taken it, but I'd bet she is a very strong extrovert. Although I do well at parties, she pulls me out even farther. She's the life of the party.

I merged the two threads of personality types together so the poll will go with the original thread. Thanks Intuition for thinking of putting together a poll like this

ISTJ. Oh, I just knew you were all dying to know.

Introverted: 56
Sensing: 1
Thinking: 38
Judging: 33

You are:

moderately expressed introvert

slightly expressed sensing personality

moderately expressed thinking personality

moderately expressed judging personality

Am I interpreting the results incorrectly or did this test suggest that I'm pretty much "senseless"? (A non-swinger on the Swingers Board? Might be something to it after all. )

I have taken this test several times over the last 20 years and have always been an EFNP. Interestingly enough, ENFPs are small percentage of the general population but far more common in swinging.

For what it's worth, I think this test is stunningly accurate!

Im interested to see if there are a lot of simalar personalities

INTJ leads the pack, with three Extroverted Types hot on its heels. No bell curve yet...

I'm still the only ISFP...interesting...

Mr. Funk
MJ and Ves, I'm introverted until you do something about it...now if you'll excuse me, my shell is waiting.

Kate... Just so you know... the M-B quality of "judging" isn't the same as "judgemental". It has to do with how you approach and process information and decisions, and the like.

That's because you're one of a kind.

I think ISFP really means that you're an extrovert masking as an introvert. I don't think it would be a very hard task to lure you out of your shell very often, Mr. Funk.

It's amazing how high a percentage of Kiersey "Rationals" are here. Instead of being the rarest group, here we're a major percentage.

Oh, and I'm an INTP and my wife is an INTJ.

J vs P is really more of:

• J - makes quick decisions on best available data - not happy until a decision is made
• P - prefers to wait until there's enough data to make the right decision - unhappy when a decision means less time to analyze

You could think of it more at Jumping vs Pondering. (although that's still not really accurate)

(Since my wife and I only differ by our J/P traits, we're pretty aware of the differences)

[C n' D 4playin]

no major surprises here for us....
and we concur with MB1991....curious results for the limited sample if one accepts the projected % for rationals within any population.

Typically the results in a general society would be:
Artisan - 40%
Guardian - 35%
Idealist - 15%
Rational - 10%

Here we're showing
Artisan - 16%
Guardian - 26%
Idealist - 26%
Rational - 33%

Now, the low Artisan number is expected since Artisans typically don't take personality tests on their own and so show up low in a self-selecting study, but the disproportionate high Rational and low Guardian numbers are surprising.

What's really odd is the particularly high showing of INTJs and low showing of ENTPs which don't follow the group pattern. Probably the low sample number but...
