Personality type and political tendency

[Sinister Intents]

The purpose of this thread is for me to see if there is even a small relationship between personality type and tendency, or just to see which personality types have the most in say anarchists or marxist-leninists I guess. I put this in Chit-Chat because I wasn't exactly sure how to word anything...
Here is the site for the test: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes1.htm

Also I got INFJ. Introvert, iNtuitive, Feeling, and Judging. The percents in that order went something like 56% - 12% - 14% - 56%. I feel that the personality type this test has shown me is very accurate to who I am. I read the description of INFJ and I fit that to a 'T.'

So INFJ and anarcho-communist, though I'm not sure if I truly fit anarcho-communist considering my lean towards Marxism. If anyone wants to, you can tell me what tendency seems to fit me.

[Sinister Intents]

If someone thinks this fits somewhere else, go right on ahead and move it

[Hrafn]

Hm. ESFP. Extravert (11%), Sensing(12%), Feeling(75%), Perceiving(11%).

Anarcho-Communist, I suppose.

[Brutus]

Introvert(56%) iNtuitive(50%) Thinking(12%) Perceiving(11%)
Communist.

[Ro Laren]

You don't seem very edgy, unless I do... But I'm 21 years of age

[Remus Bleys]

I just can't get past the whole based on carl jung thing.

I just can't get past the whole based on carl jung thing.

Oh well :/ Also this is looking more like it'll be a scatter plot with no centers, but perhaps specific parts, perhaps more introverts

[Ele'ill]

I'm taking this test right now (again) and the questions are kinda open for interpretation


You tend to be unbiased even if this might endanger
your good relations with people

what does this even mean

[Red Economist]

recently trawled revleft and found two polls on this. I got INFJ (as a borderline Anarchist with Marxian Communism).

Here's the combined stats (You have to vote to answer, so I've subtracted my vote in INFJ category and in the totals in both cases):

August 2011 October 2011
ISTJ 2 0
ISFJ 1 0
ISTP 1 1
ISFP 1 2
INFJ 8 2
INTJ 20 7
INFP 9 8
INTP 15 14
ESTP 0 0
ESFP 0 0
ESTJ 0 0
ESFJ 0 0
ENFP 3 2
ENTP 7 4
ENFJ 2 2
ENTJ 2 2
Total 71 44

Pretty Clear Intuition or the N's are the most common in both polls!
August 2011: 66 out of 71 (92.95%)
October 2011: 41 out of 44 (93.18%)

(August 2011 Poll)

[Sinister Intents]

@Mari3L: I think it means that you might hold onto opinions that people you like or people you know hold other opinions, and it could become damaging to the relationship?

[Sinister Intents]

Awesome thanks RedEcon :)

Could we get a poll attached to this then? and moved to non-poli or political? it can continue on for a long time maybe....

INFJ
Introvert(67%) iNtuitive(62%) Feeling(50%) Judging(22%)


You have distinct preference of Introversion over Extraversion (67%)
You have distinct preference of Intuition over Sensing (62%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (50%)
You have slight preference of Judging over Perceiving (22%)




granted there is a guitar do the hokey pokey session going on in the meeting room with 40 kids so UNABLETOFOCUS is probably closer to the truth

[BIXX]

This is the first time I've ever scored ENTP. It said I was only moderately more extraverted than introverted, only moderately more intuitive than sensing, little to no bias of being a thinker over a feeler, and only a bit more perceiving than judging.

E: 50% (accuracy: +/-10% (meaning I think I range from 40-60% in this category))
N: 50% (accuracy: +/-15-20%)
T: 1% (accuracy: +/-1%)
P: 36% (accuracy: +/-10%)

Notes: this test can easily be affected by mood, levels of nutrition, etc...

I am an egoist-nihilist anarchist.

I feel overall that the test was more or less accurate in describing how I've felt over the past year. However Carl Jung (if I remember correctly) was that 46+2 guy, right? In that case a lot of this shit must be taken with a a grain of salt, as his theories are bogus.

[BIXX]

Time to analyze some results for some fucking science.

Almost all introverted tendencies cover only 1% of the population. Combined all introverts only cover 8% of the population (according to some math and info I read about a year ago).

Fucking can't thank people in chit chat.... Thanks for doing maths comrade :) I'm gonna ask RA to create a poll for this

Haha if you want go ahead and PM it to me.

So, I'm gonna try a whole bunch of data arrangements.

Not that I think these really mean anything or are accurate but I got:

There are "INTJ" forums that are full of cringe-inducing shit. The edgy never ends. (http://intjforum.com/archive/index.php/t-15247.html)

As for me, I'm somewhere in between E- and I- NTP.

I remember taking the test a few months back and I was an ENFJ. Apparently we're amongst the likes of Ronald Reagan and Tony Blair. Gross. Probably the two most hated modern political figures I can think of, save for ol' Maggie Thatcher ofc.

As for tendencies, I'm still a bit unsure, but definitely not a Marxist Leninist. I don't think I could be dogmatic towards any tendency either.

Can you create a poll with a lot of answers, containing all types? You may be able to do that if you edit your opening post.

I haven't found to much edge there besides that and some "WE'RE SO MICH SMARTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE GUISE". And the link posted earlier doesn't work so I can't find the edge in it :(

MBTI is unscientific nonsense though. You'd be better off with astrology.

Even if the descriptions given for every type were incorrect, which they're not, each type still groups similar people, or, at worst, people who gave similar answers - it's impossible that it wouldn't. So where is the problem?

This is like saying "IQs are unscientific nonsense", which they aren't, they simply say how many correct answers (if the test was designed correctly there is only 1 answer reached logically for each question, suggesting otherwise is almost always nonsense) you had in the test comparing to the other people - it's impossible that they wouldn't. And suggesting intelligence or logic/thinking skills isn't correlated at least a little with how well you did in such a test is nonsense. That's all.

IQ tests are unscientific though... We have many threads about this.

The extravert is no preference at all (1%), with distinct preference for intuition. The other two elements are moderate preferences (30 something percent)

Are *you* sure - it *is* a good idea?

this is going to be heavily skewed since you're only asking people who spend time on internet message boards about political theory, who i imagine share a number of the traits measured by these tests- probably introversion and thinking but what do i know

What, having tables and graphs in the first place or getting in touch with the graph master? :D

[BIXX]

Either?

Also I figured the tests would be skewed to the introvert side die to the Internet thing. So I'll probably balance it against the stats of other sites or something.

[consuming negativity]

Wow, lots of INFJs here. I'm almost always the only one; or like, one of two, if it's a large sample. Lots of posters I like, too. This is very interesting given how often internet communities are flooded with INTJ types.

[RedAnarchist]

I'm an INTP, and generally most forums will have a majority of Introverts, if not also a majority of iNtuitive Thinkers.

[RedWorker]

I guess it's also correlated at least a little to political views.

[Kill all the fetuses!]

Just for the record, there is a more thorough version of this, at least it seems so:

16personalities com/free-personality-test (can't post link yet...)

[Thirsty Crow]

Anyway, I actually feel like a very special lil snowflake for being so balanced on the introversion/extroversion scale.

[synthesis]

The problem with these tests for me is that the answer to literally every single one of them is "depends." It's really more gauging how you fit into their framework on any given day rather than who you are as a person, as if that were remotely knowable in any absolute sense.

You have distinct preference of Introversion over Extraversion (67%)

You have a strong preference of aspie neckbeard (100%)

Broad leftist/socialist. More or less libertarian, but I like a few system on statist side like Tito's.

I like to think of myself not as a type of person. And just a set of eyes. Western individualism has really engraved alot of this narcissistic shit onto our brains. Imagine if people focused on what they have in common, and worked as a unit. :ohmy:

Sometimes I'm social, sometimes I'm not, we all bleed eat and shit. We all want good stuff.

I actually really prefer to be rational (thinking). It just doesn't always work out that way because of my emotional volatility.
