Temperment sorter...

Ah...these type of tests.

 

I always come out an INTJ and have for 20 years, with very strong introvert/thinking and just barely Intuitive/Judging.

I tested as something quite different when I was a young teen tho, during that period of time that kids are rebelling against parental control. Make of that what you will. :D

 

@Kaftan - no one likes to believe they can be fit snugly into some defined category...I had a friend once who declared that such tests made him feel as if he *had* to behave a certain way, as if being labeled as 'this' was an attempt to declare that there is no such thing as free will or true individuality because a 'personality type' dictates what the outcome of your reactions to stimuli will be.

 

But (serious) personality tests aren't really like that and they're not designed to say anything of the sort. They're just...average preferences at that time in someone's life. Not actual roadmaps or crystal balls.

 

But yeah, I don't think they should be used for hiring criteria, or anything of that sort, either, cause in such uses they tend to get abused as if they *are* roadmaps, and that's wrong, IMO.

That is basically what my dad said, who is an MFT, when I asked him about it this morning.

 

He said yes, my category did pretty much nail me for right now, but the lack of people skills indicated in my type could change if I ever get out and spend time with people. Then I ribbed him for resorting to internet dating services before me.

I thought that some of the questions were examples of Plurium Interrogationum; i.e. loaded questions.

 

"Why did you stop beating your wife?

"A. She cooked dinner.

"B. She stopped hitting me.

"C. I never stopped."

You are:

distinctively expressed introvert

Risk:

 

As far as I can tell, the Risk test leads you to a description and not the actual test. At the bottom of the screen there is a link reading "Go to the Test" however you are then asked to pay $4 worth of "tokens" for the right to take it.

And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

Sounds like we're all a bunch of introverts :D I used to be a social butterfly, but over the years I've become more and more uncomfortable in social settings. I'm just a homebody these days!

I dislike people that's one of my reasons for being an introvert.

By special, you meant that there were "different" classrooms for me as a child, don't you? :Eldar's grin and wink icon:
