As an INFP, I do tend to identify with Kiera's behavior. If you see anyone trying to make the best of a situation, that person is most likely not an INFP. But getting obsessed with an ideal outcome is something an INFP might do. The part about hurting others, though, is not typical of INFP behavior. However, in real life that sometimes happens when you are trying to help several people at the same time and their interests conflict with each other. In Kiera's case, she is having to go through the anguish of living a life continually affected by changing outcomes due to time travel, needless to say, just like everyone else in the Continuum world.

Yeah, but I don't buy that she's INFP at all. There's no way. Kiera wouldn't have relied on Alec's auxiliary Ne the way she did if she also had auxiliary Ne. He is always the one who comes up with the ingenious ideas. I agree with you though that she has inferior Te. She relies on her feelings to make decisions way more than thinking about anything logically. I still think she's ISFP for the very reason that I don't see Kiera & Alec as Team INFP + INTP. There is more of a disparity between Kiera and Alec than just Fi vs. Ti.

It seems she uses Si not Se to me. She is obsessed with returning to her son. Her reflexes seem derived from technology. Her observations and actions are not natural.

Her Ne seems undeveloped because of the CMR. But she gradually learns to trust her intuition throughout the series.

A Ni user would most likely realize that she could never be with her son again, unless it was the exact same future. And decided to make the best of her life in the past. Her obsession with returning to the future keeps hurting others.....

INFP's are very much caught up in their idealism. She starts off the show buying exactly what the corporations are selling her. She doesn't have ANY evident idealism. She does things for the reason that it is her duty to the state. She has no use of Ne at all. An Ne-user would have a bigger issue and problem with singing the song, "Everything is AWESOME!..." (Lego Movie reference) every day. Kiera would have shown Ne in her teenager/young adult 2060's-2070's flashbacks. But on the contrary she didn't have any Ne in her younger years. Her sister had Ne. Her mom might have even had Ne. But Kiera definitely didn't. She comes off more as a duty-fulfiller. Anyway, I still say ISFP.
