[MBTI General] INFJs, what other types have you tested as?

[Moiety]

Pretty straightforward question. How many types? Which types? And why do you think that was?

 

[Lauren Ashley]

Before I began studying MBTI, always INFJ. And that's all that counts, right?

I'm pretty sure now I'd probably test as another type because I would over-analyze the questions.

 

[whimsical]

INFP

because I am basically 50-50 in the two judging/perceiving functions

 

[the state i am in]

i thought i was an intp for a while when i was first cursorily introduced way back when. girl said i was an infj, tho. i wasn't sure whether to believe her bc she was totally crazy. she was right. crazy like a fox.

 

[redacted]

in approximate order:
ENTJ (first test ever)
ENTP
ENFP
INTP
INFP
INFJ
INTJ
ENFJ

Weird order, I know.

Husband: tested once, was infj

i have never tested anything but INFx, except in one socionics test, where i tested intp with low T. tests that use the J/P dichotomy are arbitrary for me. none of both patterns, as they are exemplified there, match me just right, so i have to throw cubes and bend myself coherently.

I've always tested as INFJ on MBTI tests, including the official one. Once early in college I tested as INTJ on the HumanMetrics test, and I recently tested as INFP on one of the function order tests.

Sounds familiar!

HumanMetrics always typed me as INTJ when I was in my early 20's (although the T/F was always the weakest dichotomy for me), and cognitive functions tests a year or so ago tended to put me as INFP.

Why? Well, as to the INTJ thing, either I AM an INTJ, I'm not that extreme on F/T so it doesn't really matter anyway, or the questions don't get to the root of cognitive processes and are attributing behavioral trends to type when they shouldn't be. As to the INFP thing, I think one can have strong cognitive functions that they're not 'supposed' to have as strong - which I suspect is my case. Or, again, the questions just aren't framed correctly.

I'm eNFJ, and have tested as INFJ and ENTJ (which kinda makes sense, the split of the two).

I've tested only as eNFJ for years now.

When I first took the test about 5 years ago, I got INFP. Then I took it again on several different websites over the years and it varied from INFP, INFJ, INTJ, and ISFJ. I think I based some of the answers on how I was feeling at the moment when I took them, but INFJ fits me the best.

 

[Lightyear]

ISFJ, INTJ, ISTJ

I am definitely INFJ, just none of the above types fit me.

 

[Sniffles]

INFP usually.

I suspect that it's a combination of both, but probably more to do the the questions. I score as having very high Fi on the function tests, when really those questions could be seeing the Ni/Fe combination. Same for several other cognitive functions. I don't think I'm really all that high on true Fi. I've also thought that it's my bias in taking the test as it's difficult after you know more about typology to avoid gearing your answers a certain way.

I know I'm not INTJ, though I love me some NTJs. The funny thing is that I'd forgotten that I'd ever scored as INTJ until I was looking at old response papers from college and I had written a response in developmental psychology about whether I thought my "type" fit for me (the verdict was: somewhat, but not really). I had been typed as INFJ in high school, also pretty close between F/T. I think the bottom line is just that the HumanMetrics test isn't all that reliable, which kind of goes without saying. I know a few ISFJ/Ps who have mistyped themselves as INFJ/P there.
