This has been a curiosity for me for a long time, since I first saw a poll of MBTI’s on a message board related to LDS historical issues. I’m INTJ, which is pretty rare, ie about 2% of population, and the poll came out that a huge number like 10% or higher were INTJ. NT’s especially, were overrepresented. But then I saw counter logic that NT’s, especially INT’s are overrepresented on internet forums generally. I guess because we’re so nerdy that this kind of stuff appeals to us more than normal people? I googled and saw that hawkgirl has posted on this before. Hawkgirl, can you chime in? Would love to hear your thoughts. IIRC, i’ve had private chat with you on this before in the distant past under different moniker, but I can’t remember well.
We’ve had several discussions about Meyers-Briggs, and the topic comes up in association with other topics at times. Use the search function and search Meyers-Briggs or MBTI. As DJ said…you should check out this topic: May I have your, Myers-Briggs/Jung type, please?I think it is kinda interesting to see the majority of people here not representing the majority population. I am ENFJ.
Feel free to add your self-analysis to the thread linked above to keep it with others. It can help our threads stay organized.
A couple of posts I’ve done over time on MBTI (I became a certified MBTI instructor in 1996 and have taught it to various teams dozens of times over the years). I’m an ENTJ. http://mormonmatters.org/2008/03/31/what-is-jesus-mbti/ http://mormonmatters.org/2009/05/23/bloggernacle-personality-survey/ Very interesting. I am an INTJ and I do think it plays into the way I tend to think a bit more critical than many of my friends. They joke that I may not be any smarter than any of then, but I spend way more time thinking than they do. Test can never decide if I’m an ENFJ or an ENTJ .. Apparently my F and T require a coin toss. Well, it’s all preferences anyway. Another view of my type: (E) – I’ll talk your ear off.
(N) – About nothing concrete, lots of theories and stuff I’ve read.
(T) – Don’t expect hugs or tears.
(J) – I’ll be checking my watch.

smartphone–especially at church.hah, I’m about the same. In fact my wife could’ve written this for me. Here’s my edit.

(N) – About nothing concrete, lots of theories and some amazing random medical research I’ve read.
(T) & (F) Expect equal amounts of hugs, tears, and full scientific analysis of your situation.
(J) – I’ll be gently checking my watch.
Where does ability to organize any drawer, closet, club, or organization for better effectiveness and efficiency fit in? I am an organizational freak of nature.
Amateur parent – that’s the J. My desk must be clear of all papers. My email inbox empty by the end of the day or nearly so. Thanks Hawkgrrrl! I knew that J had to stand for something …
Glad to see we share that!

Pure awesomeness.
ENTJ as well. That’s why we kick ass, Dax.
