INTJ
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm with Leaf, I found some of the questions to be kinda difficult to answer with either a yes or a no. A "maybe" option would have been nice.

there is no maybe people, you are judged by the points you accrued in each question, each question is worth differently, come on its simple psychology work people.

Yes, and I think that making people choose randomly for questions they can't sensibly answer damages the outcome of it.

INTJ

Introverted 22%
Intuitive 12%
Thinking 62%
Judging 56%

Mastermind, huh.  Interesting. 

Especially interesting when compared with Diablous's INTJ.  These values clearly have a bit of a range to them. 

I wouldn't be surprised if the Myers-Briggs test was up to, oh, 40% bullshit or so, but that's certainly better than some of the other "personality tests" you can find on the Internet :P

points you lost from one question can be accrued back from the other ones, if there was a answer to any feeling then this test would overload you.

Yes, but it means you get random noise on top of that.

You conjure images in my mind of somebody being given a multiple choice question, with every possible answer ever given. The persons brain then explodes.

I read that only 4% of the population is INTP and felt special. Then I noticed that 15 people on here are INTP. Then I realized that this is Bay12. Then everything made sense.

Several of you obviously don't understand that psychology is kind of unavoidable pseudoscience. It's simply not possible to even begin to understand it all. Psychology is trying to make sense of what may be the only truly chaotic system in the entire universe.

As for anybody that says it's using "catch-all" language, that's partially the Forer effect at work. The test is grouping almost 7 billion people into 16 categories, so what do you expect?

We are on the forums, a social network, is it that unrealistic to think some of us might me extroverts?
