Definitions of objective used are:

-not influenced by personal feelings, interpretations, or prejudice; based on facts; unbiased: an objective opinion

-expressing or dealing with facts or conditions as perceived without distortion by personal feelings, prejudices, or interpretations

Most Objective: INTP...ENTP...INTJ...ENTJ: Least Objective

I'm confident in this assertion as it pertains to "the typical bearer of type," though I'm sure someone disagrees. As to its importance...Advantage could be gained in dealing with people of these types by way of adjusting initial trust. One who isn't as concerned with self-advancement or control as one is with remaining objective is less likely to deceive.

I'd say on average: Most objective- ENTP ... INTP .... ENTJ ... INTJ - Least objective

Really depends on the individual (and perhaps the situation as well).

Objectivity:

external perceiving > internal perceiving (Ne > Ni - looking at patterns in outside data vs. patterns with inside data)

extraversion > introversion (Someone more in tune with what's actually going on rather than an internal standard/vision.)

I'm too unconcerned with proving my point to elaborate. And your attempts to control this INTP, Mr. ENTJ, are useless!
I expected nothing less. That would require you to actually do something.

Via your ad hominem attack, you have demonstrated your unobjectivity. Additionally, if your fury were lessened by calm, rational thought, you might have noticed that I was in fact elaborating humorously while claiming I never would.

Note to self: Don't depend on INTPs to be objective about their objectivity.

That'd require them to actually come up with reasons for putting themselves first.

Note to self: INTPs are more objective than ISTPs as well.

What does "objective" mean?

Are you referring to an opinion free from extraneous influence?

Stating a fact is now a sign of unobjectivity?

It depends on the fact. When I stated the facts contained in my Objectivity Scale, I started to feel slightly unobjective, but still in the green.

Or too subjective to see your own subjectivity.
My subjectivity is like a tiny, tiny mouse, and my objectivity the tiger who hungers for it, though it would make an unworthy meal.

See OP for the definitions. In my words, however: Being objective is making analyses, decisions, speaking and taking action with a big picture view in mind, as opposed to large concern for self interest.

I only ask, Jack, because your first bullet point nullifies the sense of objectivity you were seeking.

I presume this was intentional. ;)

Still gunning to support that N read, huh? ;)
Nice metaphor, tho. :D

Hmmm. Did you know that NPG likes to kill mice?
