Which Type is the Most Intuitive About People? (I'm still going to post the S types because they do not lack iNtuition. )

EDIT:When I say "intuitive about people", I am referring to correctness about others' emotions, motives, actions, past, etc. with little information to work with. Grasping the "essence" of a person, as a hippie might say. :D

I'm guessing the popular answer will be the NFs. But I had an ISFP who could read me like a book. I don't know..

well, you're not going to get answers by looking at one person. Type doesn't do much to a person. You'll get an answer by looking at large pools of INFJ, large pool of ISFPs, etc. and seeing how many are good in each type group.

And I'm assuming you mean intuitive in the mbti sense...

My first thought would be INFJ because of their Ni + Fe combo.

I have heard that ENFP's can be quite good at this though.

It's pretty close between ENFP and INFJ. I voted ENFP anyway, but it kinda depends on the circumstance.

^ agree. i'm actually creeped out sometimes but the strong empathic nature of the ENFP, more so than the INFJ, because they're more apt to let your secrets slip after a couple glasses of wine at a holiday get together. and there's little chance of convincing them their hunches are off.

disclaimer: no, this hasn't actually happened to me...that i know of. yet.

I've never met any FPs who were capable of doing this with me. NFJs have come closest.

INFJ hands down. ENFP close second.

NFJ ime. I chose INFJ because dom Ni has an advantage over dom Fe in this field but ENFJs probably would be stellar at this w/ a well-developed Ni.

By definition, I would guess ENFP. Ne being the dominant. I'm more sure that they're the most broadly intuitive about people, while INFJs probably get somewhat random and deep insights into people. Ni-Fe would seem to make Ni insights into people mostly about Fe values, while Ne-Fi would compel an ENFP to scan the behavorial horizon more often for something new in people. ENTPs probably belong up there somewhere too.

Is it just me or someone voted for INTP ?


As for the OP i will say ENFJ.
But I can see ENFP,ESFJ and INFJ as the "right" answer.

lol at the results. Well NFs have the combination of N and F making them not only concerned with others' emotional state, but their N gives them insight into other people as well.

Eh, I can't see INFJ for this.
ENFP makes the most sense to me.
Especially the more mature and older ones.
