There was a similar briggs-myers test that was posted last year, this one reads a bit differently though. I was a borderline INFJ on that one. I seem to be changing.....a bit!. |

I've done a couple of these over the years, and they seem to vary according to the day I'm having. Always intuitive, and perceptive, but quite near the middle on the other two. |

Where did Myers-Briggs come from, after all? It began with a housewife from Washington, D.C. named Katharine Briggs, at the turn of the last century. Briggs had a daughter, Isabel, an only child for whom she did "everything but breathe." When Isabel was still in her teens, Katharine wrote a book-length manuscript about her daughter's remarkable childhood, calling her a "genius " and a "little Shakespeare." When Isabel went off to college, in 1915, the two exchanged letters nearly every day. Then one day Isabel brought home her college boyfriend and announced that they were to be married. His name was Clarence Myers. He was studying to be a lawyer, and he could not have been more different from the Briggs women. Katharine could not understand her future son in law. When the couple returned from college, Katharine retreated to her study, intent on figuring out her daughter's new husband. She began to read widely in psychology and philosophy. Then in 1923, she came across the first English translation of Carl Jung's Psychological types. She was so impressed by Jung's work that she burned all of her other books and proclaimed his work to be her bible. She devised a pencil paper test to help people identify which of the Jungian categories they belonged to, and spent the rest of her life promoting her creation.
The problem is that Myers and her mother did not actually understand Jung at all. Jung didn't believe that types were easily identifiable, and he didn't believe that people could be permanently slotted into one category or another. "Every individual is an exception to the rule," he wrote; "to stick labels on people at first sight", in his view, was "nothing but a childish parlor game."

Ooh, while we're at it: Pisces, Year of the Snake, INFP, don't know my bloodtype.
I lived with a woman for a while who was hardcore into astrology. It was actually kind of fun. I wouldn't call it science by any stretch though and I think any benefit or realization that comes about because of it is just people projecting what they see/read onto themselves. |

I love the ego handjob that these tests give you.
"Blessed with an idealistic vision, they do best when they seek to make that vision a reality."
"They are born to lead and can steer the organization towards their vision, using their excellent organizing and understanding of what needs to get done."
You never see a test that says, "You're kind of a lazy douche." |
