I... think we were all wrong about House's type. He's not any sort of NT, he's just hyper-deductive. He's an analyst, yes, but his internal framework is entirely composed of emotion and ethical values... values such as that "everybody lies," around which he bases all his logical analyses (which are themselves driven towards confirming his own beliefs rather than coming to conclusions -- external logic supporting internal ethics, rather than the other way around). He's a clear Ne dominant, yes, he drowns himself in Ne to escape his emotions, but he's Fi/Te rather than Ti/Fe.

ENFP, 5w4 sp/sx.

I could see this to be true. In fact it does make more sense than ENTP as he does do a lot of Te-ing.

I think he Te's too well though. I'd say he is (for television's sake) and INTx.

I wish to pick two answers! It won't let me. I say INTx.

INTx isn't a real type. It would mean he's simultaneously Ni-Te and Ti-Ne. xNTx (crossover between INTJ and ENTP) makes more sense, but I really do think he's more Ne-Te. Or rather, he's an Fi type who drowns himself in Ne and Ti-like cold logic to dull the pain, with Te-like mobilization skills. I don't see much Ni at all.

I don't mean that he is simultaneously both at the same time, but that he can decide what he can use when he wishes.

People prefer functions out of line with their type, but it'd still result in a single type on average.

If they prefer a different function then what is in their 'original' type then they have changed types.

So, what about that new girl? The really smart one? I was thinking ISFJ. Si dominant, as most of her knowledge is simply from memory and she definitely likes tradition and safety, and she seems to have strong Fe values and a need to make people happy.

Whatcha reckon?

I want Thirteen back. Actually, I also want Cameron back. This new girl is annoying.

Her values don't seem Fe. I'd take her for INFP.

Everyone hated Cameron, then Thirteen came along and everyone hated her more. Now it's the new girl.

Women really got it bad.

Yeah, most of the women on there, Thirteen was the lightest of them all, are the moral compass in that show. Kinda lame.

House is definitely ENT_, the last letter is tough - he does have the P unconventionality at times, but then seems to exude J at others. For now i'll put him at ENTP.

House: ENTP
Dr. Wilson: ISFJ
Cuddy: ISTJ
Foreman: INTJ
Chase: ISTJ
Allison Cameron: ?
