a few things you should keep in mind when studying mbti

cognition β‰  behavior

yes, our cognition affects our behavior, and if you believe in mbti, it surely affects our behavior too. with that said, you should keep in mind that we are complex human beings and it's impossible for us to act exactly like our type all the time.

which takes us to the next one

mbti is also about motivation

it's not just about your first reaction to stuff or your mental process when making a decision. it's also about your motivation with your actions. you did that thing. why? what were you trying to do when you did that? what were you thinking to do that? were you trying to find an effective solution to your problems? or maybe you were just trying to understand how that worked and why it worked like that?

write down your mental process

this one, seriously, do it before you understand the cognitive functions!! write down your thinking process when making a decision, write down every single thing you can think about your personality. it'll be useful. also if you have the patience to do so, write a very detailed journal about your thoughts for a couple days but those tips will work only if you have self knowledge.

be careful about the sources you're using

this is so important, I can't say it enough. it's pretty rare to find a trustable source to study mbti besides the books so if you're checking websites, be extra careful please.

I'd recommend you to check this website https://www.typeinmind.com/ it's the most trustable source I found

don't trust tests

yes, there are tests that can help you to have an idea about your mbti (16p is not included for god's sake) like sakinorva or the mistype investigator test, but the only way of being sure about your type is studying the functions and having enough self-knowledge.

heyyy, reblogging with a note: pls be aware that 16personalities.com is based on the big 5/OCEAN model, rather than what MBTI was originally - based on Jungian personality typing. Enneagram may be helpful to you too as it's more about nurture (rather than nature, which MBTI is attempting to dissesct) and ways we respond to fears, and how we can grow as individuals

Heyyy, Reblogging With A Note: Pls Be Aware That 16personalities.com Is Based On The Big 5/OCEAN Model,

Personality typing like MBTI, OCEAN and enneagram is pseudo-science, but can still be helpful :)

I had to look up what infj-a was, but when I read it, I felt seen. It’s kind of scary the way it picks apart my personality and how much injustice really makes me upset. I’m an academic as well, and an artist, so a lot of that makes sense.

I'm glad you felt seen! Welcome to the rarest of personality groups. It's a bit of a blessing and a curse, imho.

For most of my life, I've wondered, "Am I the only one who feels/sees/experiences/thinks this way?" As I've gotten older and have interacted with more people, I realize that most people don't quite experience or think about things the way I do. I feel intensely and think deeply, and I wish I could turn it all off some days.....but I can't. I JUST FEEL SO DAMN MUCH. At times, it consumes me and it's something I am constantly working on.

So the next best thing has been for me to explore behaviors, personality traits, psychosocial influences, etc. to better understand what shapes us. And that's where the INFJ-A typing kicked in and resonated with me. I'm well aware that there have been raging debates about the scientific validity of MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator), but anecdotally, I've found the personality typing to be personally helpful. They are more like theories of personalities to me...things you can use to guide and help you structure your thinking.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me! I really enjoy hearing about these things from others!

Things about you that contrast every stereotype of your MBTI type

(and in general are extremely unlike your type)

Vs

Most stereotypical traits of your's

I'll start:

ESTP (7w6)

Unstereotypical:

I wrote fanfiction, had a phase in which i doodled everyday. Have had one relationship so far, don't drink alcohol and the last time i was at a party was more than a year ago. I also hate team sports with a passion. I love learning new languages and am a total TV show nerd.I also binge watch. Also I have never been in a physical fight. Lmao . Btw i also love to have philosophical conversations with special people and am generally attuned with analyzing my dreams and the meaning behind them. I usually take a lot of time to make friends (real friends).

VS

Stereotypical:

I love the gym , calisthenics etc. I love cars and traveling, and exploring new places with a passion. I generally prefer being outdoors to indoors. I like camping and sometimes am a adrenaline junkie.

An amazing series where 16 people of each of the MBTI personality types live together in one house. I fully recommend this for whoever is a fan of the Myers-Briggs personality indicator.
