Ni doms are independent types though (yeah the F one wants to make people agree with them) but they really distinguish themselves from a group. I don't think it's likely they all chill as one flock. I always use the analogy of Ni doms being beta fish. I had some really rough experiences with other Ni doms (I see one out of years maybe I'm unlucky but yeah)
That doesn't make sense just because one or two types is the most common result does not make it authentic.
What about the other 14 types? That should raise awareness rather than lessen it.
Do you think NJ and NP types make pop psychology tests exclusively? So you think NJ and NP types are the only type to become novelists? I'm saying those people are mistyped maybe not all of them but a lot of them.
The word choice. Are you introverted or extroverted (introverted is kind of a trend right now) introvert check.
Are you imaginative or realistic? Um of course I'm special Intuitive check. (Everyone believes they're smarter than everyone else)
Are you compassionate? um feeling because I'm not some hard cold ass icy bitch. Feeling check.
Are you disorganized? No I'm not some messy slob. I got my shit together. Judging check.
Tl;dr MBTI has poor word choice.
I'm sorry but I don't understand your first two statements. Could you rephrase?
Oh no, of course I don't think that NJ and NP types are the only type to become novelists! I said that "many INFJs and INFPs are novelists" not that only INFJs and INFPs are novelists. My two best friends, an ESTJ and ISTJ are both creative writers.
The group took the personality test on 16personalities.com which has no questions phrased like that. The few questions that I could see being a problem are:
"You often get so lost in thought you ignore or forget your surroundings." A writer would often pick this one because a common hallmark of writers is spacing out and imagining new scenes for the current work in progress.
"You consider yourself more practical than creative." My guess would be that most writers would pick creative because a major part of their identity is creative writing so they would be like "of course I'm super creative!!!!"
"An interesting book or video game is often better than a social event." Many many many of the members of this particular writing community are book worms, some having read LOtR about 20 times so yeah, a lot of them probably strongly agreed with this question.
"You rarely get carried away by fantasies and ideas." Most of the members probably disagreed with this one because their favorite hobby is essentially getting carried away by their fantasies and ideas.
"You often get lost in thought while you are walking in nature." Again, writers spacing out and imagining book scenes.
And "You enjoy going to social events that involve dress-up or role-play activities." They all probably strongly agreed with this one because once a year this group has an annual meet up/writers conference, and every day has about 5+ cosplay themes that almost everyone participates in.
So from those questions you would have the preference for intuitives, and one question geared towards introverts.
This is a stereotype, but I would say that the majority of writers are introverts, though I cannot state this without 100% certainty as I've never read any studies on the introvert/extrovert preferences of writers.
As for the feeler preference, good writing has a HUGE emotional component. The goal of a novel is to make the reader emotionally attach to the main character ASAP (though there are exceptions in more experimental novels), so that the reader will keep reading whenever you stick the character in a pickle because he or she wants to find out whether or not the main character will be OK. Good writing also requires the writer to constantly be describing how the main character is feeling, and what the main character is thinking CONSTANTLY. The reader wants to be immersed in the main character's mind, and feel the character's emotions, and so the writer has to always be trying to experience what they imagine the main character is experiencing, so that way the book will be as realistic as possible, and teleport the reader into the character's world.
I've read only one book on the subject of more emotional people becoming readers and writers and have only heard a handful of talks about it, so again, I cannot state that more emotional people are writers with 100% certainty, but I can say with 100% certainty that the majority of writers (writers as in the collective amount of amateur and professional novelists, not just professional novelists because many readers will only read books written by males so male writers often have an easier time being successful as professional novelists) are female due to the emotional component of writing.
So here you have the reason for the large INFX that make up this particular writing group. I cannot say why there are more INFJs than INFPs, though.
