I got infj for the very first time, but then a bit later I took the test again and got infp. And I did a lot of research on all this, and that's how I became sure I'm an infp. I think you can be more sure of your type if you learn about cognitive functions, read the descriptions for the types you think you might be, and learn the differences between the types what are kinda alike. I'm no expert, I'm just pretty interested psychology and things like that, anyway I hope I could help you even a little bit. <3
It’s better to learn about the cognitive functions if you’re confused much :3
Hey! So your personality stays pretty consistent for the most part as you age, and well Jung’s intentions for his personality archetypes weren’t exactly translated for the Myers-Briggs test, something like the Big 5 Factor Test or OCEAN would be a little more reliable. But from your post it seems you’re someone who is introverted but is also introspective
i’ve done myers briggs level 2 with a professional coach. one of the things my coach told me was that it’s normal for your personality type to change. but... overall i think the whole thing is about as useful as tarot cards. people aren’t fixed types, and they won’t always behave consistently. it’s most useful as a tool to help you find insights on your behavior or your relationships to others.
Well personalities aren’t static. As you grow or as stuff happens to you it can very much influence how you think, feel and behave. For example, you feeling low you’ll probs view yourself in a different manner than when you’re at a high. This is the reason I take tests such as the mbti test lightly because people are very complex and change all the time.
Everytime i took the test i got infj, but im still not really sure if this is my personality type or not since some of the description of infj doesnt really fit me
same! i got infj first then isfj but im just going with infj for now
I think the test doesn’t really matter tbh, depending on how you feel a certain day you might get a slightly different result than the last. It’s a nice way to get an overview of your personality but it doesn’t define you as a whole.
yess i had some trouble too! at first i was infp-t and then after a few weeks i was intp-t. but i figured it was because i am almost exactly in the middle between those two. I redid the test a few months later and it had showed intp-t
i know quite a bit about jung and mbti and from experience people who keep getting those three in the 16personalities tend to be isfp?? (tho im intp and i did, too) but i dont know you so don't take it as the truth!! i advise you to read about functions and maybe do the keys2cognition test :)
I got INFJ my first go, and it literally describes me perfectly (then and now). I think it’s a hit or miss situation though, because my friends have done it many times and had very different, inaccurate results😬
It's really hard to find my Mbti too... I got Intp-A, It said I'm introvert but I'm not. So idk
