Typology Central - View Single Post - Why Are INTJs Sometimes Confused As Extraverts?

I think, sometimes, confidence can be misconstrued as extroversion. INTJs probably the most confident INs (speaking in broad generalities).

I think the "Chart-the-Course" introverts (INTJ, INFJ, ISTP, ISTJ) are generally seen as more confident (because they're more directive) than the "Behind-the-Scenes" introverts (INTP, INFP, ISFP, ISFJ).

Again, basing this of my "book-based" intuition FWIW.
