what personality is this forum?

This is interesting . . . you type in the web address and the analyzer tells you the personality type of the forum. Not sure how the results stack up given the apparent contradiction below.

ISTJ - The Duty Fulfillers

The responsible and hardworking type. They are especially attuned to the details of life and are careful about getting the facts right. Conservative by nature they are often reluctant to take any risks whatsoever.

The Duty Fulfillers are happy to be let alone and to be able to work int heir own pace. They know what they have to do and how to do it.

George Washington was a famous ISTJ.

I'm an INTP which probably explains why it takes me twice as long to understand what is said by some of the QPs and others.

If this is too gay, just delete the whole thing.

I just tried www.professionalsoldiers.com and received:

Quote:
INTJ - The Scientists
[INTJ]
The long-range thinking and individualistic type. They are especially good at looking at almost anything and figuring out a way of improving it - often with a highly creative and imaginative touch. They are intellectually curious and daring, but might be physically hesitant to try new things.

The Scientists enjoy theoretical work that allows them to use their strong minds and bold creativity. Since they tend to be so abstract and theoretical in their communication they often have a problem communicating their visions to other people and need to learn patience and use concrete examples. Since they are extremely good at concentrating they often have no trouble working alone.
Me thinks that typealyzer.com needs some work???

The 'I' is for Introversion. Does that sound like this forum?

How might a text analysis go about producing a determination of Meyers Briggs personality type? In other words, how does Mattias Östmar's 'psychographic analysis of social media' work? I would be very interested to hear a discussion of this.

Marina, you are among 2% of the population that are INTPs. You'll make a good 5 on the Enneagram.

Although analysis often seems called for.

The MBTI is a 'preference' scaled response test based on the respondent's preferences with two opposite preferences for each scale.

We gave the MBTI (along with the TONI, WAIS2, and True Colors) to all of our students and faculty to help them better understand themselves and others.

For the MB - I am an INTJ - but there are percentages of preferences (0 - 70) for each scaled response with mine being 31-31-23-13.

Like any such test - it's a 'tool' for considertion and not a definitive answer.
