Hi [MENTION=32874]Vendrah[/MENTION]
thank you that you joined in on this conversation. I really liked this questionnaire. Felt like going on an adventure with the guild related start. Props to you.
The ambivert thing is definitely something that could be me. And If you only go for the "P" I really think you are right!
I am a bit confused with the result. I got Feeler type and this was stated:
JUNG DESCRIPTION OF FEELING (there is no Jung description for the feeling type)
I had this first 21. FEELING.46 and then that 21a. FEELING, A
So does that mean you cant convert that into MBTI? Or maybe does it mean that my primary function is definitly a Feeling Function so Fe or Fi so that INFP/ISFP/ESFJ/ENFJ could be possible?
Edit: Ok I read your explanation thread so it just means I am XXFX. :/ is there some thing like closest to or is it possible to exclude some types?
Jung typology is more easy than it seems. Basically:
Attitude type: E or I.
Function type: N, S, F or T.
Basically, you have no attitude type (Jung does allow somebody to have no attitude type and/or no function type or no auxiliary function - but the websites doesn't tell you that) - ambivert as I said earlier - and per the test it seems you have Feeling as the function type but you got no specific auxiliary function, which puts you as a middle-term between the Fi and Fe types (Fi and Fe are types, F is the function; Jung stated on his book multiple times that functions are 4, not 8, and the name of chapter of Fi is "Introverted Feeling
type", same pattern for the other names). By that test, of course.
I think you truly are an ambivert, maybe you don't really have any clear preference for N/S, and at least the test seems to point out feeling and you seem a perceiver by the first route (perceiver on a dichotomy route - since by the "cognitive functions" route that would depend on E/I), so I would say XXFP.
Having just 2-3 letters of your type is normal - I for example am relative contempt with just xNxP.
This happens because most people on these dimensions are on the middle - the majority of people, even here, does have a borderline or two (I would say 1 in this forum and 2 on real life people as the most common). So, for example, on the Big 5:
Or to be clearer, I had done last year some estimates for each dimensions using Dario Nardi test results:
Raw:
Estimated for the whole global population:
As you can see, most people are E/I. Even Jung did recognize that:
Jung said:
There is, finally, a third group, and here it is hard to say whether the motivation comes chiefly from within or without. This group is the most numerous and includes the less differentiated normal man, who is considered normal either because he allows himself no excesses or because he has no need of them. The normal man is, by definition, influenced as much from within as from without. He constitutes the extensive middle group.
Just saying this so you won't feel awkward or broken or something like that just for not having a clear type.
However, if you want to force it, I got four suggestions...
First, if you are a XXFP, F-dom and 9, you should pick IXFP, just because some people use "Fi = IXFP" (even if rigorously that is inaccurate). You could pick INFP 9 or ISFP 9. I do pick ENXP at the same way, "Ne = ENXP".
Or, this is more awkward though, pick up a combo.
I mean, 9 is introverted statistically, there is some marks about 9 being a withdrawn type on enneagram, although if you pay attention to the core basics 9 is an ambivert (that is debatable and I won't enter in details because it isn't important for this context), so you should probably try to tie an Extraverted type 9 for ambivert. If you picked up the Extraverted types that flags themselves as a 9, you definitely expect them to be less Extraverts than their original types global average (because 9 is more introverted), so any EXXX 9 combo is imminently an ambivert. Same cannot be said for IXXX 9, very introverted ones shouldn't be unusual. So at this integrated route, you can think of ENFJ, ESFJ, ENFP, ESFP, all nines - ENFJ/ESFJ by functions route or ENFP/ESFP by the dichotomy route.
My third suggestion is that you could do an HEXACO test (just google it, its first result), post here or in this thread:
Which forum member are you? [HEXACO edition w/ HEXACO to MBTI/Enneagram calc.]
The 6 factors numbers at least (Honesty-Humility, Emotionality, eXtraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Openness) and I recently had created a spreadsheet calculator that does a cool job (not totally accurate, but not inaccurate - J/P is the most problematic) of passing that result to MBTI, Enneagram and MBTI/Enneagram integrated on an hybrid version of dichotomy and functions.
My fourth suggestion is one that is more complex but also fun - you can do the statistical "Which character" [are you] quiz (I recommend the 'exhaustive' 120 questions version, so you can skip things you are in doubt at and because it is more precise), from here:
Statistical "Which Character" Personality Quiz
And then you could go to this website:
The Personality Database | Personality Types for Famous & Fictional People
Basically, the quiz assigns which characters are the closest to you, 1400-1700 characters.
So after you take the quiz, you can open Personality-Database, which is a type that people vote types (they use predominantly the cognitive functions paradigm), and enter the first 15-35 characters depending on your patience and count the types on a spreadsheet or on a notepad. I do suggest you to only register at least those with a minimum of 3 votes. You can register the MBTI, Enneagram (I recommend to ignore the wings) and MBTI/Ennea combo at least (so, for example, you can count how many of these characters are ISFPs 9s), but also Enneagram tritype, MBTI/Enneagram tri-type combo, SLOAN type and Attitudinal Psyche type and maybe you could care about the enneagram instincts, temperament and Socionics (I don't care much; I really don't like Socionics).
There is one super tricky thing, though... Some combinations and types are more often in real life, in fiction and on that website than others. For example, in both real life, fiction, here on this website and on that website, INTJ/INTP 5 is a very common combo - its almost "the nerd" archetype or stereotype. These are going to show up more often just because of that, while more awkward combos might show up only a few times because there are only few of them on the whole list of 1600 (or maybe just one or maybe even zero). So when you evaluate which combos are more common, you need to take that in consideration. One thing, but it gives you work and perhaps too much work so I suggest to do it just for the most common combos for you, is to go to "Top & New lists", 'list type -> most 4 letter votes', insert the combo and see how many each combo has (INTP 5, for example, has about 800). There are a total of about 12467 total profiles that appear on the search number, I like to use 10k as reference, so, for example, 800/10000 = 8% of total profiles are INTP 5 (which is a lot). So you could divide on the spreadsheet the number of times you got a combo and the incidence of that combo on personality-database, so you can get a ratio that is actually a better reference for type.
This gives some work but is quite fun and you in both this and HEXACO you type indirectly and, although some people may criticize indirect approaches for not getting a clear picture of the system and all, they also have the advantage that you are less likely to have a, I don't know the exact name so I will call "self-serving bias", which is the bias "I am that type so I start to mark high on options that I sort of know or feel that are related to that type".
These are my suggestions!
