Nov. 22nd, 2007 11:44 pmSince a couple other people are doing it (nods at
davehogg (INTP),
moiracoon (INFJ), and
sabrinageek (ENFP), I thought I'd post the results of my own attempt at sorting myself into a Myers-Briggs category.
I came out to be an INTP. In accordance with what I learned is the dominant internally focused thinking aspect of that type, I immediately plugged INTP into Google to see what sort of information could be found and whether that result seemed to fit the evidence at hand. I came up with a fourteen page document detailing the mental processes and inner workings of INTPs. I suppose it only makes sense that INTPs would be the epitome of self-analysis.
The document describes the way I think with uncanny accuracy, and I think may even help me, or others, understand things about me, like why I can seem so argumentative and irritating with people I'm close to, but am very easy-going with people I'm not as connected to. If you're interested, here's the link to it:

I wish I could find descriptions of other Myers-Briggs types that were as detailed. Regardless of whether or not this particular typing scheme is fully valid or not, I think some very useful relational lessons could be learned from such documents.
