Data collection for gene theory! It is SO ON!

[hokie912]

Mom: ISTJ
Dad: ESFP
Me: INFJ
Brother: ESFP

Maternal grandmother: ENTP
Maternal grandfather: ESTJ
Aunt: ESFJ
Uncle: ISTP

Paternal grandmother: ISFP
Paternal grandfather: ISTJ
Lots of SxP aunts and uncles

...Really not thinking there's much of a correlation to be drawn there.

 

[KarenParker]

TYPE: ESFP
FATHER'S TYPE: ESTJ
MOTHER'S TYPE: INFP
SIBLING 1's TYPE: INFP (half-brother)
SIBLING 2's TYPE: ISTJ (I think) (also a half-brother)

 

[KarenParker]

This is a really cool thread! Has anyone noticed any patterns yet?

 

[polarmonk]

Mother: INFP
Father: ISFP
Brother: ENFP
Me: INTP

maternal grandmother: ISFJ
maternal grandfather: ESFJ
paternal grandfather: ENxP (came up with crazy theories. Probably T.)
paternal grandmother: INTJ

lots of aunts and uncles are SJs.

Edit: Parents and brother have taken the test. Nobody else has.

Don't think there is a correlation. I personally think that personality is roughly 3/4 environmental and 1/4 genetic.

Only those sure of their types and their family's types need respond, please.

I'm collecting 50 + pieces of evidence and I'm doing it like a madwoman.

That's right, I need you to please leave me posts with info about your type, the type of your siblings, and that of your parents. If you are sure of grandparents and other relatives, even better.

Uninterested parties need not bother applying. This thread is just for data collection purposes!

Man, this is gonna be great... after this, all we have to do is find an interested NT to help make me a theory, haha...

Fill out the below, please, only if you are SURE of the types of you and your family:

TYPE:
FATHER'S TYPE:
MOTHER'S TYPE:
SIBLING 1's TYPE:
SIBLING 2's TYPE:
...so on...

Thank you so much!

This is gonna be as interesting (more than) as when my biology teacher taught us about green bean genes in 9th grade.

I see you are getting a lot of "guesses" responses. Like you said, this is only use if they are SURE.

I think you need people to tell you types only where the people have physically taken an MBTI test.

Myself: INTP
parents, brother, maternal grandparents, paternal aunts: ISTJ.

Common thread: IT, with Si/Ne perception (though reversed for me, and I was stood out from the others).

even more different are paternal grandmother and one of the first cousins, who are ExTj. They seem "pure Choleric", which suggests N, though I would really have to look at their perception/language again, and what is either shadow processes, or just their natural negative selves. (So hard to tell, though I'm sure the cousin is ENTJ). Both can be described as "estranged". Hard to get along with, and hate each other!
