[Tritype] Enneagram Tritype Test attempt/start. Stop by, take the test/add on, please?

[Rouskyrie]

When I discovered the Enneagram, I became extremely interested in it and was disappointed to find that there wasn't very many options for tritype tests, so I decided to make an attempt to create one. It's not perfect, but it's a start, I suppose. Please, if you can spare some time, answer and leave some suggestions/constructive criticism.

I need to make improvements, once I figure out where to start, so it's not perfect.. yet. I feel the need to apologize for that.
Any suggestions as to how I could improve upon this?

No need to apologize at all; I think it's a pretty good test. It's around how I usually score.
For background, I used to type as 9w1, 6w7, 2w1. Later determined that 6 was the core. That 1 wing on the 9 is very strong, to the point that some tests give me a higher 1 than 9 score, which I'm fine with. I usually score low on 4 on tests but eventually swapped out my 2 fix for a 4 fix (after consulting some other typology-interested friends). But I score really high in the positive outlook types, so my 2 usually comes up pretty high.
So I'd say your test is pretty good. It definitely does a better job than some tests I've seen.
Only thing I can think of is that sometimes the first part was hard because I found myself relating to the "good" and not the "bad", or the "bad" and not the "good." Or in general relating to parts of a type but not the whole type. But that's not really a fault with your test, just human complexity.

A.) Externalized shame: Openly displays shame. May manifest as constantly needing approval or positive feedback.
B.) Repressed shame: Avoidance of shame. May manifest as trying to prove yourself to avoid the shame that you feel.

Part 2 - Problem Emotions;
Each of the Enneagram types has a way of dealing with their "problem emotion".

Thanks for making this test. The results are very accurate for me. I'm currently typing as 6w5 1w2 4w5, but 6w5 4w5 1w2 is equally as likely.

I don't have any practical suggestions on how you could improve this. My only criticism is how much this tests relies on self identification. I could tell which answer went with which enneatype, though I don't know how you could really change that.

 

[Rouskyrie]

No need to apologize at all; I think it's a pretty good test. It's around how I usually score.
For background, I used to type as 9w1, 6w7, 2w1. Later determined that 6 was the core. That 1 wing on the 9 is very strong, to the point that some tests give me a higher 1 than 9 score, which I'm fine with. I usually score low on 4 on tests but eventually swapped out my 2 fix for a 4 fix (after consulting some other typology-interested friends). But I score really high in the positive outlook types, so my 2 usually comes up pretty high.
So I'd say your test is pretty good. It definitely does a better job than some tests I've seen.
Only thing I can think of is that sometimes the first part was hard because I found myself relating to the "good" and not the "bad", or the "bad" and not the "good." Or in general relating to parts of a type but not the whole type. But that's not really a fault with your test, just human complexity.

Fair enough. Thank you, and thank you again for taking the time to comment/take the test, it really means a lot to me.
As for your background, that's really interesting. I also noticed you're an ISFJ. Surreal, ISFJ's have always seemed interesting to me.
Some people say I might be one, but I haven't figured that out yet. IXFJ is as far as I've gotten. xP

No need to thank me, it's far from where it should be, at the moment. I aspire to make this into a test that people use as an exemplary tritype test. But you're welcome. Thank you for taking the time to comment/take the test, I sincerely appreciate it. And hmm, noted. I hope to add more questions and put less emphasis on the self-identification aspect, but I wasn't sure where to start. I work better in terms of improvements with feedback from others, for whatever reason.

Extremely surprised and doubtful of the 6. Was that in error?

 

[Rouskyrie]

Extremely surprised and doubtful of the 6. Was that in error?

Whoops, I did mean to put "6w5/5w6" at the beginning since your scores for those were equal. Other than that, no. Your answers spoke for themselves, in my opinion.

 

[Hawthorne]

Whoops, I did mean to put "6w5/5w6" at the beginning since your scores for those were equal. Other than that, no. Your answers spoke for themselves, in my opinion.

Then I am curious about the calculation process or a clarification of defintions at play since it appears to me that my 6 and 7 results are swapped around.

In part A, I selected "I" which seems to relate to E7 as second most relatable and "G" which seems to relate to E6 as one of the least.

In part B, I selected "A" (again, associated with E7) as a major fear and "I" (associated with E6) as a non-existent fear.

In part C, I highlighted all of externalized fear (E7), part of internalized fear (E5) and none of repressed fear (E6).

So unless you're using different defintions than what I'm familiar with or a very creative calculation scheme, I do not understand how 6 outscored 7 without there being an error on one of our sides.

"I fear I am incapable of surviving on my own, so I must find support/direction from others."

Guiding fears (Major) (3):
E - Although, I know what type this goes with, and that type doesnt fit, this is my most conscious fear on a basic level. I wouldnt say I try to be helpful to win love, although sometimes I might. I think I try to seem special, exotic or perhaps admirable in some way. I don't think all 2s seduce via "helpfulness" either.

B. I consciously don't fear not being unique. I admit I always feel unique, whether I am or not. I actually bemoan feeling different all the time. I do feel insignificance - like I'm doomed to a pointless, meaningless, mundane existence. I also fear a loss of identity - having obligations or relationships pushing me to conform to something that isn't me.

A. Or H. I don't fear deprivation or pain, but I do feel like I need to be independent and competent to meet my own needs, because I don't want to burden others, and I feel like dependency cuts into my freedom. I also dont like feeling needy. I don't consciously fear not being knowledgable - I usually feel knowledgable. I do have a need to understand things in-depth, to the point where I need that understanding or even a theory before I act.

D. I fear being controlled or manipulated. Automomy is important to me.

G. Yep. Feeling worthless and like I need to accomplish more or better things hangs over me a lot.

A.) Externalized shame: Openly displays shame. May manifest as constantly needing approval or positive feedback.
B.) Repressed shame: Avoidance of shame. May manifest as trying to prove yourself to avoid the shame that you feel.
C.) Internalized shame: Keeping shame to yourself. May manifest as failure to believe anyone can understand your pain.

- All of these, but less so A, some B, and a lot of C.

A.) Externalized fear: Expresses fear openly by displaying paranoia through hoarding, (Information, possessions) as well as detachment.

C.) Internalized fear: Keeping fear to yourself. May manifest as engaging in fun activities to avoid facing the fear contained within.

- I relate least to fear as described here. I wouldn't have considered my fear externalized, but that description suits me best. I would say I detach, run away, and alienate myself and also will gather info to "deal" with fears.

A.) The fear of deprivation and pain;
"My needs will not be met by others, so I must pursue them alone."
"I must run away from pain, sadness and helplessness."

B.) The fear of lacking a unique, significant identity;
"I must prove my uniqueness to others."
"I would be worthless and unlovable if I was average."

C.) The fear of being evil or corrupt;
"I must be good in a world filled with corruption."
"I fear that I am corrupt, so I must always strive towards good to prove myself wrong."

D.) The fear of being harmed or controlled by others;
"I strive to become strong and independent."
"I fear being betrayed, controlled or violated, so I must remain in control."

E.) The fear of being unloved or unwanted by others;
"I strive to be loved and wanted by those around me."
"I fear there is nothing lovable about myself, so I must help others in order to earn love."

F.) The fear of loss and separation from others;
"I strive to maintain internal and external harmony."
"I fear I will become disconnected from others, so I must create harmony to ensure they remain in my life."

G.) The fear of being unaccomplished and worthless;
"I strive to achieve success, it is a measure of my own worth."
"I fear that I am worthless and undesirable without my achievements."

H.) The fear of being helpless and inadequate;
"I strive to become knowledgeable in all areas of my interest."
"I fear that I may become incapable of dealing with the world, so I must learn more to feel competent."

I.) The fear of being without support or guidance;
"I strive to find support and guidance from people around me."
"I fear I am incapable of surviving on my own, so I must find support/direction from others."

Guiding fears (Major) (3):
E - Although, I know what type this goes with, and that type doesnt fit, this is my most conscious fear on a basic level. I wouldnt say I try to be helpful to win love, although sometimes I might. I think I try to seem special, exotic or perhaps admirable in some way. I don't think all 2s seduce via "helpfulness" either.

B. I consciously don't fear not being unique. I admit I always feel unique, whether I am or not. I actually bemoan feeling different all the time. I do feel insignificance - like I'm doomed to a pointless, meaningless, mundane existence. I also fear a loss of identity - having obligations or relationships pushing me to conform to something that isn't me.

A. Or H. I don't fear deprivation or pain, but I do feel like I need to be independent and competent to meet my own needs, because I don't want to burden others, and I feel like dependency cuts into my freedom. I also dont like feeling needy. I don't consciously fear not being knowledgable - I usually feel knowledgable. I do have a need to understand things in-depth, to the point where I need that understanding or even a theory before I act.

D. I fear being controlled or manipulated. Automomy is important to me.

G. Yep. Feeling worthless and like I need to accomplish more or better things hangs over me a lot.

Secondary fears (Intermediate): C,F

Nonexistent fears: I


Part 2 - Problem Emotions;
Each of the Enneagram types has a way of dealing with their "problem emotion".
Those three emotions are Anger, Shame and Fear. Everyone deals with all three, but certain types pertain to one more than the other two.
Types within the Instinctive triad (8, 9 and 1) correspond with Anger.
Types within the Heart triad (2, 3 and 4) correspond with Shame.
Types within the Fear triad (5, 6 and 7) correspond with Fear.

But how do you express Anger, Shame and Fear?


A.) Externalized anger: Openly displayed anger.
B.) Repressed anger: Avoidance of showing anger openly, but it sometimes manifests as passive-aggressiveness.
C.) Internalized anger: Harshly criticizing one's self. May also appear as judgmental tendencies.

- I do all of these, but seem to swing between A or B. I am more aggressive-aggressive than passive-aggressive. C is the best fit.

A.) Externalized shame: Openly displays shame. May manifest as constantly needing approval or positive feedback.
B.) Repressed shame: Avoidance of shame. May manifest as trying to prove yourself to avoid the shame that you feel.
C.) Internalized shame: Keeping shame to yourself. May manifest as failure to believe anyone can understand your pain.

- All of these, but less so A, some B, and a lot of C.

A.) Externalized fear: Expresses fear openly by displaying paranoia through hoarding, (Information, possessions) as well as detachment.
B.) Repressed fear: Avoidance of showing fear. May manifest as surrounding yourself with safety/security and suspiciousness of the unknown.
C.) Internalized fear: Keeping fear to yourself. May manifest as engaging in fun activities to avoid facing the fear contained within.

- I relate least to fear as described here. I wouldn't have considered my fear externalized, but that description suits me best. I would say I detach, run away, and alienate myself and also will gather info to "deal" with fears.
