MBTIc statistics

[entropie]

I just did some statistics . Found it intresting to know, maybe you do too.

Statistics are not accurate, cause I do not know how trustworthy the MBTIc search works:

Thanks for your tip on how to search the members list in the other topic.

With it, i was able to learn there are:

26 that have listed ISFP as their type.

16 have actually posted at least once.

8 have posted more than 20 times.

3 that have posted more than 100 times.

6 that have posted in the last two months.

Those stats don't count Sunshine who has posted more than 500 times but doesn't have ISFP in her profile so it doesn't show up in that search. And of course any others that didn't put it in their profile.

Don't forget all of those people who think they are one type, but are in reality another

 

[entropie]

I am still wondering, if there is a limit of 100 for entp xD

I think it's probably pretty trustworthy!

Thank you for these statistics.

Once again confirmed: ES's have a life. IN's need to get one

Statistics on the internet are not accurate, since its an INT world in here. I made a thread on bungie forums, and 50% off all people who took the MBTI were INTJ's. 30% were INTP's, and 20% were other types. Pretty much everyone who took the test was an introvert. Trinity, IN's don't need a life, ES;s need better brains, then they can share in our inner lives.

Where are the Sensors???

Where are the Sensors???

They're too busy doing sensing things.

You need to invite more of your sensor buddies to this place.

Speaking of which, we should recalculate the stats again. It changed a bit since last September...

 

[entropie]

I'll do it in a sec

Well, at least this place has more Thinkers than my experiences in the "real world." Myself and a group of five friends recently the MBTI. I was the only Thinker.

seems like there is a general pattern to the percentages.

Whats sad, on the main page it says over 6500 members but the search engine doesnt count em all. I dont know why, can be a limitation in the code, calculated in some strange way

[The Outsider]

I wonder, about how many people are actually active?

The big things that stick out are N > S and I > E when it comes to forum membership. This is somewhat understandable when you consider that in social groupings like people tend to attract each other. This site is something of a spinoff from INTPc, so people who are like INTP's will be most attracted to the site.

Here's a statistic that I don't understand though. ENxJ's seem to be underrepresented compared to ENxP's.

Ratio of ENTP to ENTJ: 224/97 = 2.31
Ratio of ENFP to ENFJ: 327/82 = 3.99

Meanwhile

Ratio of INTP to INTJ: 709/451 = 1.57
Ratio of INFP to INFJ: 540/457 = 1.18

Obviously there are more P's than J's on the site, but I'd still expect more ENxJ's to be here than there are. Are ENxJ's signigicantly different than other N types to keep them away, or is there some other phenonomon that explains the discrepancy?

The lack of EJ's is that they are E, and if they are interested in this, then they would talk with real people on earth instead of people on the internet.
