ISFP or INFP?

[Fernando Perla]

How to know if I'm a sensor ar an intuitive? Thank you very much.

If you're sure you're either an ISFP or INFP you need to decide if you use extraverted sensing or extraverted intuition.


Se: You experience what your 5 senses tell you directly, accurately, and in real time. You notice sounds, sights and smells before other people do.

Ne: Ne's can see trends and patterns. They are especially good as seeing how things, events and people are connected. They can see the meaning behind people's actions

There's just 2 very short overviews of what each function is about, you can get more depth by just googling them or there's tests you can take like

Jungian Cognitive Functions Test

Keys 2 Cognition - Cognitive Processes

I personally think the tests work better before you start to understand the functions, so maybe do a test or two, see what your results are and then look into the functions to see if you relate to them

and what makes you sure you are a IXFP anyway?

Most of the tests have given INFP as a result, some ISFP.

May be true. We shall see.

Why not answer a few of these questionnaires in this thread?

You took a selfie.

I get nervous and shy when selfieing.

I got INFP on both but ISFP in Similar Minds' Myers-Briggs Type test with 80% on Sensing.

Read ISFP and INFP descriptions to see which one best fits you.

Both (or neither). But I sure am ISFP or INFP.

Based off of your picture I would say INFP.

It depends on whether you prefer concepts over reality, or reality over concepts.

 

[Mal12345]

The two types are very distinct unless you're looking at superficial stereotypes.

For example, the ISFP is never like this: "has an unusually rich inner life where they are concerned with the philosophical discussion of good versus evil."

Both! LOL.

 

[Mal12345]

Both! LOL.

Either you like concepts, abstractions, philosophical reflection, or you don't.

Why would I be an INFP?

 

[Mal12345]

Why would I be an INFP?

Because the intuitive face is long and the sensor face is round.

 

[Mal12345]

I don't agree lol

Well great. But I've said other things that don't have anything to do with VI.

 

[Venus Rose]

What's VI?

 

[Gypsy-Flux]

Are you familiar with the functions of each type?

If you are see if these videos maybe help you to figure it out...

The Sixteen Types: ISFP - YouTube

What about Ulysses S. Grant and Joern Utzon?
