What about xxxx types?

[Samvega]

I have met a few people that are right on the fence on all 4 preferences. I'm talking 45% to 55% on everything.

What is that all about? I'm 80 to 95% on all of mine. How do you figure people like that out or are they just like type O blood?

They're just well balanced people.

 

[Jack Flak]

They're old, or they're conscious or subconscious liars, or tests are unreliable. The last one is always true.

 

[wolfy]

They're bitter.

Depending on the test I can get pretty close on all counts, I believe it's a mixture of learnt behaviour that has become instinctual and unreliable tests like Jack said.

 

[runvardh]

Is that supposed to be, like, extra sexy or something?

 

[luminous beam]

I think people become well rounded by circumstances, experiences in life and then there are those who strive to find a balance.

The ONLY thing MBTI samples from is self-attitudinal attributions that you make about yourself that you ALSO are conciously admitting.....

The existence of an arbitrary xxxx means nothing. Consider the HIGHER forms of human influence before you consider type and you'll be better off.

It's a test thing.

 

[nozflubber]

Good ol' limitations of human behavior samples eh!

And WHY for the love of God are you an ESTP wannabe now? at least be SJ and be logical....

Well said.

ESTP would be the most fun.

jack hit the nail on the head with this one

and this is why we need a new test

No.
The test measures preferences, not development. Preferences should be fairly stable over time in stable/differentiated individuals.

This kind of reminds me of a person I once met who claimed that she had decided to become an ENTJ... I was dubious...

 

[luminous beam]

No.

It could be someone's preference to be well balanced, could it not?

 

[Salomé]

It could be someone's preference to be well balanced, could it not?

That doesn't really make sense. Did you read the link?

 

[luminous beam]

No, i did not lol On my way out but I will when I get back. PS: It could be one's preference to aspire to be well balanced and expose themselves to things that'll cause growth and improvement is what I was implying.

 

[Cimarron]

Do xxxx people get stuck in purgatory?

 

[nozflubber]

no, Jesus comes to rescue them, but it's a SECRET. Don't tell them or they'll just sin more.
