The question is: how introverted are you? Or, how extroverted are you?

Why leave out the important question: How ambiverted are you?

There are a lot of ambivert tests, such as:
Are You Actually An Ambivert?

I'm trying to take it at the moment but am continually distracted.

I don't think ambiversion has been completely ignored by the MBTI. I believe some of the 16 types are actually ambivert types. It's just a matter of figuring out which of the types were mistaken for introverts and extroverts.

The Socionics subtypes include 16 more MBTI-ish types. For example, Socionics Types: IEE-ENFp Subtypes

Do you believe that ambiversion is a mixture of introverted and extroverted traits?

You got: You're an Ambivert, but with introverted tendancies [sic]!

Definitely an introvert. Shocking!

And my eyes generally stay dry when I read in the dark with my mutant lowlight capable eyes that only introverts have.
