    Just in case the low key sarcasm isn’t detected... i don’t think this test is reliable or accurate and the only way to figure out your personality type is to study the cognitive functions! ~ Nathan

      Months ago, the test tried to tell me that I'm an INFJ, now it's trying to tell me that I'm an ISFJ. I'm ISFP, there is no question about it. Based on the cognitive functions, I couldn't be anything else.

    The main problem I see with 16personalities is that instead of trying to understand your cognitive processes it looks for more surface level traits. Something people tend to mistake about MBTI

    I feel like you get to know a lot more about the personality type of someone by analyzing the way they are approaching the questions, rather than the answers they click. Many people have a different interpretation of the meaning of certain questions/statements, therefore answering them differently to what the creators implied. A test like this can't see the thought process, that leads you to answering in one way or another. That concludes in it not being very reliable, given that the answers also may vary depending on many factors on a day to day basis (current mental state, the way you want to be seen etc.).

      Exactly, I am an INFP and I always got INFP. I believe personality test is hard for others because subconsciously people lie to themselves or don't even fully understand themselves yet so they pick things they want to see themselves as and that make sense which is why personality test is honestly not for everyone. To take a personality test you have to be very honest and aware about yourself and need to know what makes you the most comfortable.

    I do wish that more mbti like assessments would go directly to function stacks, as they are more informative. The mbti perfers that there be an assessment administraitor (like myself) to help a person interperate the results and analyze the accuracy.
    The 16 Personalities assessment (yes, assessment, not test, because it can not quantify how much of a trait you have), is still one of the best intros to the mbti that I have found. Used to use it a lot in my undergrad for group work as a means for starting in depth conversations about members on who they are and what their work style is. It's free, easy to use, aesthetically pleasing (which, unfortunately, matters) and fun for beginers. It's also packed with information, (some should be interpreted with a grain of salt) but it can open your eyes to the breadth of research conducted about the mbti personality types.

      To quote them:
      We use the acronym format introduced by Myers-Briggs for its simplicity and convenience, with an extra letter to accommodate five rather than four scales. However, unlike Myers-Briggs or other theories based on the Jungian model, we have not incorporated Jungian concepts such as cognitive functions, or their prioritization. Jungian concepts are very difficult to measure and validate scientifically, so we’ve instead chosen to rework and rebalance the dimensions of personality called the Big Five personality traits, a model that dominates modern psychological and social research.

Things like "having a methodical approach to life" or "entering easy into a conversation" are definitively ODD for an INTP. I find the test quite accurate if you really know you more. I used to get INTJ for a while but after researching internet and myself, I noticed that I am not a good planner neither I live to be one. Since then I have get INTP consistently in different surveys.

However, whenever I look at types that I could be instead of INTP, I always come up with INTJ (16p gave me this result, however I took it 2 years prior and got INTP), ISTP, and ENTP. Notice how all of them are a 1 letter difference to INTP. That's why I have concluded that I am an INTP.

    i think these tests can only be accurate for people who are a) stable, mentally mature (no matter the age) and b) know about hidden meanings behind actions and about psychology in general.
    i started typing correctly after those in every test i could find. i've always been an ESTP, but teenage-YA-brain mess confused these topics a lot, thus giving me results like INFP, INFJ & ENFP before maturing & learning. i guess there was my outward influence on having those types as best friends for years. now as an adult, it's very clear how my brain functions and who i definitely am not. irl no one questions my type either, but online i can still see my N-based writing style influencing some. whatever, i'm just an ESTP who's read and read a lot of books/articles/forums and listened to a lot of podcasts/essays/tedtalks/whatever. doesn't make me any more intuitive in the sense of using Ne/Ni. i love experiencing the outside world, partying for hours is no biggie for me and often the most fun, but when it comes to relationships, all things known as "Se activities" are just hollow without deeper understanding of people you're experiencing them with.

      @Luce M Te users are more prone to find things to be obvious (though what they find obvious quite often is not only not that obvious, but wrong). Ne users tend to find everything ambiguous and not that obvious.
      The Ti sentences would be: "it makes sense" and "it doesn't make sense".
      That being said, a sentence is something we have learned that doesn't necessarily show how we thing. When giving an opinion a thinker could say "I feel that" while a feeler could say "I think that". Because that's how they where taught to express their opinions.

I'm not 100% sure of his type being INTJ but he doesn't seem to be an INTP to me. And you not giving any argument in favour of him being an INTP is not going to make me change my oppinion that's for sure.

    You look INTJ or INTP.
    I see more Te, logic is fairly objective, and you seem very organised and orderly.
    Ne is also there as although you do tend to go to in depth on one topic, I just can't see a non-visionary Ni dom, also because you tend to give extremely abstract examples while an Ni dom usually cuts to the chase and makes it as crystallized, (yet still conveying it's greatest essence) as possible.
    Based on the people you know and how you describe things it seems fair to assume that you remember the core details(even remembering the jokes, the people you meet and the exact words they said) so maybe Si.
    Fe inf seems very obvious, Ti can be there as your analytical and it seems like you seek consistency.
    For INTJ arguments:
    You said you didn't like talking without achieving a goal nor do you and even described at as time wasting and sounded like you liked actionable and impactful ideas(Ni + Te).
    I don't (se)e, most well represented type on your channel is INTJ, Fi seems to be there when I saw that video about "MBTI is BULLSH*T" and you have agood understanding of Fi.

  • @lishayost44
    @lishayost44 3 роки тому

    The problem with this test is that it often asks about your behaviors, but there are many underlying reasons why any given person would do any certain behaviors. It is more WHY do you do those behaviors that matters. It is about how your brain works.
    The other problem with a test like this is that one day you might answer one way and another day answer a question differently.
    Another problem for me is that the questions aren't specific enough. It depends. There are lots of variables. I can't tell you how often I have to put "neutral" because half the time I might do one thing and half the time I do the other. I can tell you I'm not *that* balanced of a person... or am I? I'll never know. My behaviors may make me look like I'm balanced, but I'm constantly overcompensating for the ways I am lacking in my natural personality. Anyone can "overcome" personality traits to an extent and act in a way that is counterintuitive. But is it exhausting to do so? Yes.
    I'm INTP, btw, and I finally figured out my personality type after studying how the cognitive functions work. I always typed as ISTJ and ISFJ on the mbti. ISFJ makes sense because ISFJ and INTP have the same top 4 cognitive functions just in a different order, and being codependent, growing up with an alcoholic mother, I seemed to always have a pretty high Fe. Only the thing is, it's forced and I'm awkward. And if everyone disappeared from the face of the planet, I would be relieved. Whereas an ISFJ gets all their value from helping people, I do not seek out people to help, but feel obligated when a person presents their problem to me. It is nice when I actually feel like I have helped someone, but I'd rather just be left alone if at all possible.
    Also, I've done a bit of studying of Objective Personality, which I'm not so sure about at this point 100%, but a lot of it does make sense. Having masculine Si and being a thinking/logical type makes it not super surprising that I can type as ISTJ. But I'm definitely not ISTJ. I grew up in a family of almost all intuitives and I saw myself as much more responsible, reliable, dependable, and organized than them. So when I answered the questions, I came from that viewpoint, comparing myself to the rest of my family. But when I compare myself to the rest of the real world, I am definitely not an ISTJ. I think I'm just an adaptable INTP.

  • @dumbledalfthewizard9486
    @dumbledalfthewizard9486 4 роки тому +18

    Okay y'all, here's my take. Bear with me here. For reference, I'm an ENTP, the type I think Nathan is as well. Let's go though several arguments, shall we?
    First, visual typing. Nathan wears a hard black. That indicates NTP. Ne users with little Se tend to wear black, but NFPs tend to be softer in appearance, in my experience.
    First dichotomy- Ne-Si or Ni-Se. To me, this is fairly straightforward. Nathan dresses for Si comfort. The quality of his videos (just sittin' in a chair) and his answers indicates he doesn't much care about the Se impression he gives off as long as he's understood. In one answer, he mentions that calculation of Ne consequences is barely a thought, it's so easy. That screams Ne Hero/dominant to me. Even INPs choose to use their Ne, rather then have it be a background process, the way ENPs have to choose to turn on their Ti/Fi. You could argue he has Ni goals, but I think that's just an argument for having stronger Ne than Si (because Ni is higher in the shadow) because if Nathan was an Ni user his long term planning would be stronger. He clearly mentioned in the video he can't predict his future. That's very much an Ne I'll go where the wind takes me kind of sentiment. I really don't see a good argument for Nathan being a Ni-Se user or even a lower Ne user. Every single question, he would analyze the Ne possibilities of what the question could mean and then play devil's advocate with himself. I mean c'mon.
    Second, Ti-Fe vs. Fi-Te. First off, Nathan's detached air is associated with the detached brain state mentioned in Dario Nardis section on Ti. The function literally cuts off emotion while it thinks. He also works Ti deductively rather than Te inductively, by which I mean he prefers to start with a big picture and logically peel off bad options rather then argue for a good option to reach a big picture. Think of it as going step by step, or making negative arguments rather than positive ones. He also cares little for Fi identity and isn't much concerned with his Te image. So clearly Ti-Fe.
    At this juncture there's really two options: ENTP and INTP. There are a lot of little signs pointing to ENTP I'll point out. For example, he reasons out loud before he knows the solution, while INTPs tend to ruminate in silence and then explain if asked. Far more damning still is his fundamentally irrational character. According to Jung, there are irrational sensing and intuition axis, and rational feeling and thinking axis. Your 1st and 4th function make up your identity, and your 2nd and 3rd how you interact with people. Nathan makes decisions from his heart, fundamentally. He's aesthetic first and philosophical second, Ne and Se forming the Aesthetic perspective and Fi and Ti forming the philosophical perspective. Additionally, he tends to initiate conversations and is okay at parties. He goes and talks to people and feels no anxiety doing so. This man does not have inferior Fe. The thing about wearing armor INTPs do way less. Also, Nathan is very wry and ironic, and likes to play with truth in that way. INTPs are more straightforward in my experience. ENTPs imply the truth; INTPs just tell you. Vice versa for looking at possibilities. I could go on, but I think I've made my point.
    He's an ENTP.

    • @nora_8080
      @nora_8080 4 роки тому +1

      Ok firstly, I read "Nathan's detached air" as "Nathan's detached ass" so thanks for the laugh.
      As for the Ne argument, I don't think you should take his words that seriously. The thing about Ni and Si is that, many people that are Ni or Si dominant users, actually think they are having trouble with those functions. As an Si dom myself, I sometimes even get angry for not being able to organize, say, my kitchen cupboard in a way that I can fit everything close to the place where I will use it frequently (e.g. the salt on the cupboard right above the stove). For a long time I thought Si was the function I struggled with, and failed to notice I use it 24/7.
      Nathan says he's not a thorough planner, but he set his eyes on this channel and kept being persistent on getting Luanne to make more videos. It might be that his goal was bigger than that, I guess I'll never know, but anyway, he achieved it. At a live chat when talking about the history of how they met, he said that at some point he was content because the channel had already grown to what he wanted it to. He said he wasn't a planner but then again on another question he said that it's very rare for him to do any activity that he hadn't intended for the day. He might think that he doesn't have a long term vision, but no human can know exactly what will happen and how.

    You strike me as either an istj, intp, or intj…hard to choose between those

    I got INTP on this test and it is 100% true in my case.

    I've never mistyped on this test and I use it to take the test in my character's heads and find out their types lol. I will say though it's very surface level and I've deeply enjoyed further exploring and understanding the cognitive functions and it's actually allowed me to more easily and accurately guess my character's and people's types as well. Wondering if anyone could type me from this comment LOL.
