So Other Psychology Topics or MBTI....? Ahhmmm... dunno. Whatever.
So, intensity. Being intense. Having intense, ah... stuff.
I have wondered if intensity of, say, feeling is not perhaps sensibly measured in terms of the absence of mitigation. Or, in more normal language, feeling is the more intense for not having other judgments stood in its way.
Perhaps there is some effect from attention too. If one is skilled or at least practiced at attending to and discriminating among feeling whatsits, tones or something, then there's a legitimacy added to feeling some feelings. So one is more aware of feeling them.
I suppose the thinking correlate is rigor. Not as sexy as intensity, but one can talk about being "hard", I guess. Rigorous, straight up.... hard.
