    Poll Statistical
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the prevalence of INTP and INTJ personality types among users of the forum, based on the Myers-Briggs and Keirsey temperament theories. Participants express curiosity about whether these types dominate the user base, suggesting that a poll could provide clarity. Many contributors share their own personality test results, with a notable number identifying as INTP or INTJ, highlighting that these "Rational" types make up a small percentage of the general population. There is skepticism about the accuracy of personality tests, with some indicating that results can vary based on mood or interpretation. The conversation also touches on the idea that the forum may attract a higher concentration of rational thinkers, given the nature of discussions typically held there. Overall, the thread reflects a mix of humor and introspection regarding personality types and their implications in social interactions.

Ah, that explains the results. People like you break out into tears and can never enter their results. As a result, people like you are constantly under represented in polls - people like you probably make up the majority of the population.

This morning I was ENTP, tonight I was ENTJ. I read through the different descriptions and I just wonder why everything said is flattering. No matter what you come up with on this test you'll feel good about yourself after reading the description. I'm compared to Walt Disney or Bill Gates or George Bernard Shaw. Where's the list with Loreena Bobbit or John Wayne Gacy or Ike Turner?
If it makes you feel any better, Wile E Coyote is an ENTP. So is Garfield (both the cat and the president, oddly enough).

Hmm Not that it means anything, but in the politics forum I have the personality of a pit bull. In general discussion I am more like a golden retriever. ARRRFFF

PS what exactly are meat byproducts?:-p

I'm going to guess INTP. I'm also going to guess that this is mostly crap, but there is a lull in the football games right now, so I'll take the test and get back to you.

Well, I was close. INTJ, but only 1% J.

i get INFP, so I'm the only one who's got an F eh... i can't even vote in the poll.. hmph. what do the percentages mean?

If I could, I'd alter the poll :redface: But as it stands, I cannot edit the poll once it has been developed as such! :frown:

-Then again, maybe we can ask Greg-->if he can add an "other/non-NT" option :bugeye:

Anyway, I'm an INTP---->

i.e., "Introverted Thinking" + "Extraverted Intuition"

------------------------------------------------------

Now, if someone can tell me exactly what the difference between Ne (extraverted intuition) and Ni (introverted intuition) :biggrin:,
because
Extraverted Intuition (Ne) = unconscious perceptual experience: focuses on the contextual pattern that relates otherwise disparate facts to each other, increasing the possibilities for change

Introverted Intuition (Ni) = unconscious perceptual impressions: focuses on the potential relationship of existing perceptual meaning to alternate interpretive possibilities

is rather broad and makes little sense :frown:

I don't like this test. It says my preference to think is only 1%. But anyway, I could have gone either way on so many of the questions I could do the test again and get the opposite answer.

took a quick online test. ENTP apparently. I was pretty sure I was an ENTF myself, but oh well.

My thinking margrin was only 1% as well. I'm sure that's inaccurate.

Apparently i am an ENFJ and that's not on the poll! What the hell does that random babble mean anyway?

No such thing as an "ENTF"--->

only an ENTP or ENTJ...
or ENFP or ENFJ :rolleyes:

As I said before, there's no option to change the poll once it has been created :redface:

ENFP, sorry.

We think and feel, don't we all?

if only that were true. I'm pretty sure there are some who don't perceive much either.
