Well, neither am I!!!

 

[Eric B]

It seems for most NTP's, Fe comes out the weakest, and Se, Fi and even Ni (which should be the bottom 3), often come out average to fairly good.
I wonder what if any, observations will be made by this in the research.

Well, I think they provide you with two other alternatives.

Validity and Reliability of Results
As of October 2005, over 3000 people have taken this cognitive assessment. There are many ways to validate an assessment. A common statistical method called factor analysis confirms there are eight distinct cognitive categories (all items in the assessment that tap into the same cognitive process have a correlation of at least r=0.2 and most have r=0.4 to r=0.6.) Furthermore, people who have taken this assessment and reported their 4-letter type code have received results that matched their type code 75% to 80% of the time. This is excellent performance since the reported type may be inaccurate even when "validated" or from a professional assessment. Even when the type code does not exactly match, the temperament result matches over 95% of the time. Thus, you can consider your results here as valid as those from any professionally developed assessment.

Further Exploration
What if the 4-letter code reported here is different from what you expected? Say your type code result here is ESTP and the type you are familiar with for yourself is INTJ. Even though the type codes look quite different, you may have rated the cognitive processes for these two types rather closely. Also, keep in mind the cognitive profile is based on your responses. Continuing with the example, if you didn't think of yourself as an ESTP, then you would want to explore why you rated highly a phrase such as "freely follow your gut instincts and exciting physical impulses as they come up." This phrase clearly does not fit with the INTJ type pattern. Please visit Best-Fit Type : Exploring the Multiple Models of Personality Type for more information and exploration.

The theory of cognitive processes is more fundamental than the MBTI typing which seems to be a rough generalization.

 

[Eric B]

Yeah; I would think this would be the "official" MBTI test. (assuming the original one just scores the dichotomies like all the others do).

But shouldn't the fact my Fi is higher then my Ne mean I'm a INFP?

Really? That's how it was with me, too, but I didn't notice it was a trend. Fe is always my lowest score, unused, while Fi, which I'm not supposed to really have, is average. And Ni is very high.

 

[Dom]

Well, I think they provide you with two other alternatives.

WE both know what we are, no fears there, but the suggestion we're both entps is very ammusing for us...

But it is decided by the relative strengths of the other functions as well. For instance, Te is above Si and Ti is over Se. Everything else is out of place, but that is probably how that is determined. For me, Ne was above Ti, yet I still came out INTP, because the other functions were in more in an introverted order. And that's very accurate, because Ne does seem the strongest, though the role is still supporting.

Really? That's how it was with me, too, but I didn't notice it was a trend. Fe is always my lowest score, unused, while Fi, which I'm not supposed to really have, is average. And Ni is very high.

Yeah, over on INTPc, there's a whole thread like this, and you see that a lot; Fe unused, even as low as 10%.

I had long suspected I used both types of Thinking frequently, and this test supports that. Too bad Te Ti Si Ne doesn't correspond to any of the types...

EDIT: I'm slightly confused. Can anyone tell me about what my results mean? I can kind of see why it called me an ISTJ, but I don't seem to use my Se at all.

 

[Eric B]

ISTJ prefers Si, not Se, and Si is high up there in your scores as well, while Se is low, matching what you said. Also, Ne is fairly high, while Ni is lower, so that would be more of an ISTJ than INTJ.
The test shows the strengths of the functions; not necessarily what role they fall in (which is the order the actual types are based on). If you're really a TJ, with Te as your natural preference, then Ti is what would be called an "active shadow". (this is based on 8-function theory, where the last four are the "shadows', not the inferior). Ti is the I-TJ's "critical parent/discovery". elfinchilde over on MBTI Spam Pudding could break it all down for you as to how this plays out; if she's still doing the "dissections" based on this test.

so i found the link on the first page, and tried to maneuver my way through the site, but i couldnt figure out where the actual test was. sigh.

~INFP.. The results from the first time I took it.

I've tried it later too, but I manage to score ENFJ for some reason..

Do not mind ^^

I always score entj but I make people BELIEVE that I am entp

Ah, ye good olde manipulation, works every time. Let's manipulate the masses together.
I was afraid for a second there that someone had switched my brain without me noticing.. but I do feel the Fi is a bit too high.

I guess more Fi is ok, because it is your only primary function you are aware of. N is something that comes out of the unconsious and what is no way to make a decision with, while F is.

Take my results, i.e. . Same problem there:
