But we like to think it is quite unusual to find so many INFJs amongst scholars of 16th and 17th century English literature!Pamphiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07709191371678901051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27602223.post-10530317225277345022007-07-19T00:50:00.000-04:002007-07-19T00:50:00.000-04:00Au contraire -- the "test" is OFTEN wrong.

I don't know about those piece-of-junk online versions, but the official MBTI is only 70% accurate, according to its own manual. <BR/><BR/>I'm not suggesting INFJ is not your best-fit pattern, but I am suggesting you not think personality assessments are infallible. Those of us who are professional practitioners have to cope with its errors All The Time and try to navigate people toward their best-fit pattern whenever the results are wrong.<BR/><BR/>Moreover, your best-fit pattern does not change over the course of your life. Sure, your instruments results may be different from each taking, but that probably means your view about yourself or the world has changed, not your actual pattern. <BR/><BR/>BTW, here's a free resource for you:<BR/>www.INFJ.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27602223.post-45117204278419965492007-07-17T09:42:00.000-04:002007-07-17T09:42:00.000-04:00All right, so I got curious and needed to procrast...All right, so I got curious and needed to procrastinate, and did it.<BR/><BR/>Still a freak.<BR/><BR/>Though my percentages are a tad different: <BR/><BR/>26% Extraversion, 53% Intuition, 46% Thinking, 66% Judging<BR/><BR/>And I'm a Virgo, which makes me an anal freak, to boot.

It's a much larger percentage in creative and scholarly fields.

I'm an INFJ Freak too! How weird is it that the both of us would be in the same tiny 0.5%?!?!Pantagruellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16276888537167616031noreply@blogger.com
