What is your personality type?

[Dustbug10]

Many of you have probably heard of the Meyers-Briggs personality test. I despise most test of this sort, but MB is as close to dead on as any. Take the test at the link below. When you get your results, google your type and copy/paste any description you prefer. Assuming you feel that it is accurate, do you believe that your personality bodes well with audiology?

My type: INTP

Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving

INTPs value knowledge above all else. Their minds are constantly working to generate new theories, or to prove or disprove existing theories. They approach problems and theories with enthusiasm and skepticism, ignoring existing rules and opinions and defining their own approach to the resolution. They seek patterns and logical explanations for anything that interests them. They're usually extremely bright, and able to be objectively critical in their analysis. They love new ideas, and become very excited over abstractions and theories. They love to discuss these concepts with others. They may seem "dreamy" and distant to others, because they spend a lot of time inside their minds musing over theories. They hate to work on routine things - they would much prefer to build complex theoretical solutions, and leave the implementation of the system to others. They are intensely interested in theory, and will put forth tremendous amounts of time and energy into finding a solution to a problem with has piqued their interest.

INTPs are rare - maybe one percent of the population - and show the greatest precision in thought and speech of all the types. They tend to see distinctions and inconsistencies instantaneously, and can detect contradictions no matter when or where they were made. It is difficult for an INTP to listen to nonsense, even in a casual conversation, without pointing out the speaker's error. And in any serious discussion or debate INTPs are devastating, their skill in framing arguments giving them an enormous advantage. INTPs regard all discussions as a search for understanding, and believe their function is to eliminate inconsistencies, which can make communication with them an uncomfortable experience for many.

Ruthless pragmatists about ideas, and insatiably curious, INTPs are driven to find the most efficient means to their ends, and they will learn in any manner and degree they can. They will listen to amateurs if their ideas are useful, and will ignore the experts if theirs are not. Authority derived from office, credential, or celebrity does not impress them. INTPs are interested only in what make sense, and thus only statements that are consistent and coherent carry any weight with them.

INTPs do not like to lead or control people. They're very tolerant and flexible in most situations, unless one of their firmly held beliefs has been violated or challenged, in which case they may take a very rigid stance. The INTP is likely to be very shy when it comes to meeting new people. On the other hand, the INTP is very self-confident and gregarious around people they know well, or when discussing theories which they fully understand. Able to concentrate better than any other type, they prefer to work quietly at their computers or drafting tables, and often alone.

In their careers, Masterminds usually rise to positions of responsibility, for they work long and hard and are dedicated in their pursuit of goals, sparing neither their own time and effort nor that of their colleagues and employees. Problem-solving is highly stimulating to Masterminds, who love responding to tangled systems that require careful sorting out. Ordinarily, they verbalize the positive and avoid comments of a negative nature; they are more interested in moving an organization forward than dwelling on mistakes of the past.

Tend to be much more definite and self-confident than other Rationals, having usually developed a very strong will. Decisions come easily to them; in fact, they can hardly rest until they have things settled and decided. But before they decide anything, they must do the research. Masterminds are highly theoretical, but they insist on looking at all available data before they embrace an idea, and they are suspicious of any statement that is based on shoddy research, or that is not checked against reality.

Masterminds are head and shoulders above all the rest in contingency planning. Complex operations involve many steps or stages, one following another in a necessary progression, and Masterminds are naturally able to grasp how each one leads to the next, and to prepare alternatives for difficulties that are likely to arise any step of the way. Trying to anticipate every contingency, Masterminds never set off on their current project without a Plan A firmly in mind, but they are always prepared to switch to Plan B or C or D if need be.


Masterminds are rare, comprising no more than, say, one percent of the population, and they are rarely encountered outside their office, factory, school, or laboratory. Although they are highly capable leaders, Masterminds are not at all eager to take command, preferring to stay in the background until others demonstrate their inability to lead. Once they take charge, however, they are thoroughgoing pragmatists. Masterminds are certain that efficiency is indispensable in a well-run organization, and if they encounter inefficiency-any waste of human and material resources-they are quick to realign operations and reassign personnel.

Masterminds do not feel bound by established rules and procedures, and traditional authority does not impress them, nor do slogans or catchwords. Only ideas that make sense to them are adopted; those that don't, aren't, no matter who thought of them. Remember, their aim is always maximum efficiency.

My personal opinion: Yes, it somewhat defines who I am. Your question: Does audiology as a profession bode well with this personality type? Sure, I'm interested at the research level and exploring new possibilities.

I guess I'm the first extrovert. We did a similar, non-Meyers-Briggs personality test and I think 12/15 students were extroverts. So, it's interesting to see that the first few on here are introverts. Changes what I think of a typical audiologist =]

Even more than the other Idealists, Teachers have a natural talent for leading students or trainees toward learning, or as Idealists like to think of it, they are capable of calling forth each learner's potentials. Teachers (around two percent of the population) are able - effortlessly, it seems, and almost endlessly-to dream up fascinating learning activities for their students to engage in. In some Teachers, this ability to fire the imagination can amount to a kind of genius which other types find hard to emulate. But perhaps their greatest strength lies in their belief in their students. Teachers look for the best in their students, and communicate clearly that each one has untold potential, and this confidence can inspire their students to grow and develop more than they ever thought possible.
In whatever field they choose, Teachers consider people their highest priority, and they instinctively communicate personal concern and a willingness to become involved. Warmly outgoing, and perhaps the most expressive of all the types, Teachers are remarkably good with language, especially when communicating in speech, face to face. And they do not hesitate to speak out and let their feelings be known. Bubbling with enthusiasm, Teachers will voice their passions with dramatic flourish, and can, with practice, become charismatic public speakers. This verbal ability gives Teachers a good deal of influence in groups, and they are often asked to take a leadership role.

Extroverts Explained

The classic difference between an extrovert and an introvert is in how they respond to large social gatherings. An extrovert leaves a social function feeling charged up and rejuvenated. An introvert, on the other hand, might soon feel drained and sapped of energy. Both may enjoy the party, but the revealing difference is in how their energy levels change.
Extroverts tend to be outwardly directed in their emotional focus, and draw energy from people and things around them. Generally, they might be considered more social and talkative than introverts, who tend to be more shy and quiet. Extroverts tend to avoid being alone and actively seek out groups. They work well in teams and interact well with others. Leaders in our society are almost invariably extroverts.

Extroverts also tend to be easier to read. Where introverts don’t give off clear emotional signs, extroverts tend to wear their emotions on their sleeves. They give off clear emotional signals that make it easier for others to understand where they’re at.

67% Intuitive
Intuitives Explained
Where sensors primarily seek specific answers to specific questions, intuitives prefer the big picture. The sensor sometimes has difficulty seeing the forest for the trees, but the intuitive is adept at seeing the situation as a whole. Intuitives have a keen ability to formulate relationships amongst disparate ideas. They can visualize patterns and conceptualize theories and possibilities. Intuitives try to understand the meaning of things, rather than just the specifics. They often ask why things happen and look to what can be rather than merely at what is.

Intuitives are at their best when they are in the position to use their imagination and creativity. Inventors, artists and scientists all tend to be intuitives. They work well with intangibles. They trust intuition and inspiration. They turn data into patterns and ambiguity into possibility.

100% Feeler
Feelers Explained
Feelers believe that compassion and empathy are more important than analysis and logic. They are guided by their hearts. Where the thinker believes that the right decision is the one that is most logical, feelers consider emotions and individual consequences. They put themselves in other people’s shoes and consider all points of view. They don’t believe that the world can be reduced to common denominators; they believe that individual voices resonate more truth than impersonal equations.

Feelers are humanitarian, moral and honorable people. They believe in human dignity and individual rights. Their gift to this world is their tireless pursuit of harmony.

73% Perciever
Perceivers Explained
More so than in any of the other three personality dimensions, people usually exhibit a bit of both sides of this dyad. You may, for example, be very flexible and spontaneous in one part of your life, but more structured and organized in another part. Nevertheless, people do exhibit a general preference, and that preference is telling.

Perceivers appreciate flexibility, spontaneity, adaptiveness, freedom, tolerance, and individualism. Conversely, judgers appreciate decisiveness, planning, punctuality, order, tidiness, organization, schedules, and control.

Perceivers are most comfortable when they can maintain flexible schedules and don't have overly constrictive rules imposed on them. As result, they are often self-employed or entrepreneurial. They abhor strict hierarchy and prefer to work to the beat of their own drum.

It is widely believed that this personality dyad is one of the greatest sources of workplace tension. Judgers tend to have very little tolerance with the free-spirited ways of the perceiver. Perceivers tend to be aghast at how controlling judgers can be.

[BigAl]

Gotta say, it's almost spot on

My type: INTJ

• slightly expressed introvert
• moderately expressed intuitive personality
• moderately expressed thinking personality
• moderately expressed judging personality

As an INTJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things rationally and logically.

INTJs live in the world of ideas and strategic planning. They value intelligence, knowledge, and competence, and typically have high standards in these regards, which they continuously strive to fulfill. To a somewhat lesser extent, they have similar expectations of others.

With Introverted Intuition dominating their personality, INTJs focus their energy on observing the world, and generating ideas and possibilities. Their mind constantly gathers information and makes associations about it. They are tremendously insightful and usually are very quick to understand new ideas. However, their primary interest is not understanding a concept, but rather applying that concept in a useful way. Unlike the INTP, they do not follow an idea as far as they possibly can, seeking only to understand it fully. INTJs are driven to come to conclusions about ideas. Their need for closure and organization usually requires that they take some action.

INTJ's tremendous value and need for systems and organization, combined with their natural insightfulness, makes them excellent scientists. An INTJ scientist gives a gift to society by putting their ideas into a useful form for others to follow. It is not easy for the INTJ to express their internal images, insights, and abstractions. The internal form of the INTJ's thoughts and concepts is highly individualized, and is not readily translatable into a form that others will understand. However, the INTJ is driven to translate their ideas into a plan or system that is usually readily explainable, rather than to do a direct translation of their thoughts. They usually don't see the value of a direct transaction, and will also have difficulty expressing their ideas, which are non-linear. However, their extreme respect of knowledge and intelligence will motivate them to explain themselves to another person who they feel is deserving of the effort.

INTJs are natural leaders, although they usually choose to remain in the background until they see a real need to take over the lead. When they are in leadership roles, they are quite effective, because they are able to objectively see the reality of a situation, and are adaptable enough to change things which aren't working well. They are the supreme strategists - always scanning available ideas and concepts and weighing them against their current strategy, to plan for every conceivable contingency.
INTJs spend a lot of time inside their own minds, and may have little interest in the other people's thoughts or feelings. Unless their Feeling side is developed, they may have problems giving other people the level of intimacy that is needed. Unless their Sensing side is developed, they may have a tendency to ignore details which are necessary for implementing their ideas.

The INTJ's interest in dealing with the world is to make decisions, express judgments, and put everything that they encounter into an understandable and rational system. Consequently, they are quick to express judgments. Often they have very evolved intuitions, and are convinced that they are right about things. Unless they complement their intuitive understanding with a well-developed ability to express their insights, they may find themselves frequently misunderstood. In these cases, INTJs tend to blame misunderstandings on the limitations of the other party, rather than on their own difficulty in expressing themselves. This tendency may cause the INTJ to dismiss others input too quickly, and to become generally arrogant and elitist.

INTJs are ambitious, self-confident, deliberate, long-range thinkers. Many INTJs end up in engineering or scientific pursuits, although some find enough challenge within the business world in areas which involve organizing and strategic planning. They dislike messiness and inefficiency, and anything that is muddled or unclear. They value clarity and efficiency, and will put enormous amounts of energy and time into consolidating their insights into structured patterns.

Other people may have a difficult time understanding an INTJ. They may see them as aloof and reserved. Indeed, the INTJ is not overly demonstrative of their affections, and is likely to not give as much praise or positive support as others may need or desire. That doesn't mean that he or she doesn't truly have affection or regard for others, they simply do not typically feel the need to express it. Others may falsely perceive the INTJ as being rigid and set in their ways. Nothing could be further from the truth, because the INTJ is committed to always finding the objective best strategy to implement their ideas. The INTJ is usually quite open to hearing an alternative way of doing something.

When under a great deal of stress, the INTJ may become obsessed with mindless repetitive, Sensate activities, such as over-drinking. They may also tend to become absorbed with minutia and details that they would not normally consider important to their overall goal.
INTJs need to remember to express themselves sufficiently, so as to avoid difficulties with people misunderstandings. In the absence of properly developing their communication abilities, they may become abrupt and short with people, and isolationists.

INTJs have a tremendous amount of ability to accomplish great things. They have insight into the Big Picture, and are driven to synthesize their concepts into solid plans of action. Their reasoning skills gives them the means to accomplish that. INTJs are most always highly competent people, and will not have a problem meeting their career or education goals. They have the capability to make great strides in these arenas. On a personal level, the INTJ who practices tolerances and puts effort into effectively communicating their insights to others has everything in his or her power to lead a rich and rewarding life.

ENTJ (56, 75, 25, 33)

"The Fieldmarshal"

"They cannot not build organizations, and cannot not push to implement their goals. When in charge of an organization, whether in the military, business, education, or government, Fieldmarshals more than any other type desire (and generally have the ability) to visualize where the organization is going, and they seem able to communicate that vision to others.
...
As this kind of role is practiced some contingency organizing is necessary, so that the second suit of the Fieldmarshal's intellect is devising contingency plans"

Yup. I've taken these tests several times in the past and I always get ENTJ.

 

[rEliseMe]

Add one more INTJ to the list!
I think the reason Audiology has so many is due to the nature of the practice... I think it's the Introvert's Medical Field, so to speak. This quote from the Heiss explanation supports that idea: "When it comes to their own areas of expertise -- and INTJs can have several -- they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they don't know." Audiology is relatively specialized, so I think it fits the desires of an INTJ.

This part on relationships doesn't apply a whole lot to audiology but I had to laugh because it's so ridiculously true. I am a classic INTJ in this respect.
"Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel. While they are capable of caring deeply for others (usually a select few), and are willing to spend a great deal of time and effort on a relationship, the knowledge and self-confidence that make them so successful in other areas can suddenly abandon or mislead them in interpersonal situations. This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). ... Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness."




I also like this quote from the source SoCalAud got her summary: "Decisions come easily to them; in fact, they can hardly rest until they have things settled and decided. But before they decide anything, they must do the research. Masterminds are highly theoretical, but they insist on looking at all available data before they embrace an idea, and they are suspicious of any statement that is based on shoddy research, or that is not checked against reality."
Just last night, I was at a party and Mister Rogers came up. One of the people there said, "Mister Rogers was convicted of child molestation!" and I gave him a look of, "Please." People who say crazy things like that without researching them really bug me because there are equally as many gullible people who then in turn spread the rumor further. As an INTJ, I highly value accurate truths, even if they don't benefit me. I remember as a kid even correcting my friends because they tailored the truth to benefit themselves. Ugh.

The INFJ knows what other people are too naive or too brainwasted to admit: the Conspiracy is real. Mistrustful and suspicious, the INFJ is not easily fooled, and does not take the word of the government-controlled medico-military-industrial complex for anything. Whether it's uncovering the plot by butter-eating Jews to clog the arteries of Christian folk with artificial margarine or discovering the secret laboratory in Tibet that's producing legions of Jimmy Carter clones that will be sent out to seize the manufacturing facilities in the Guangdong Province of China under the pretext of inspecting chickens for influenza, there is no lengths the INFJ won't go to in order to blow the lid off the whole thing..

.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]INFJs can often be found holding down jobs as AM radio talk-show hosts. They can also be found driving taxis in the greater Washington, DC area. Other common jobs often held by INFJs include vagrant, loony, whacko, and writer/director/producer of the television show "Seinfeld." INFJs can also be found feeding that crucial bit of information to determined FBI agents just before they are brutally murdered..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]RECREATION: INFJs often come home from a hard day's work exposing conspiracies about how the government is poisoning us with mind-control agents spread by passenger airliners and unwind by spending all night writing Web sites exposing conspiracies about how NASA faked the Bush election..

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The INFP is a dreamy, imaginitive, idealist, capable of finding the good in anything or anyone, even something as foul as Newark, New Jersey. INFPs are sometimes dangerous to the well-being of society as a whole, as they are prone to adopting subversive and destructive ideologies like "The world should be fair," "People should treat one another well," and "You know, 'Friends' is a really, really stupid television show.".
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]These irrational thought patterns may sometimes cause INFPs to run off and join the circus, the Resistance, or the Rebellion, where they tend to do well in any position requiring excellent hand-eye coordination or mastery of the Force..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]COMPATIBILITY: INFPs and ISTJs generally exhibit a natural predator/prey relationship, which, though it might appear harsh and cruel from the outside, is all part of the natural cycle of life. In fact, were it not for the predation of the ISTJ, the population of INFPs would soon grow to unsustainable levels, overwhelming the ability of their ecological niche to support them..

.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]Whether he's creating bizarre religions aimed at bringing us all back to our origins as immortal space aliens made of pure thought or conducting seminars and classes on alien abduction, the ENFP is always seeking the answers to the great mysteries of life, such as "Who are we?" and "How can I use two tin cans and a Radio Shack multimeter to bring enlightenment to the world?" and "What is it with UFOs and anal probing, anyway?".
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]ISTJs are characterized by loyalty, duty, and civic responsibility. As an ISTJ, you have a natural understanding of the value of civil harmony and order, and a deep-seated dislike of non-conformity, anarchy, and chaos..

.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]For an ISTJ, work is very important to a sense of self-satisfaction. Happiness comes most easily for you when you have a job that allows you to express your ethic. Whether it's blasting traitorous rebel scum as a proud Imperial Stormtrooper or monitoring the population's cerebral implants searching for evidence of unauthorized thought patterns as one of the Thought Police, you're most satisfied when you are crushing the population beneath the iron boot heel of oppression on behalf of your masters..

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]An ESFP is a spontaneous, outgoing, charismatic, fun-loving person like the guy you used to room with in college--you know, the one who was found floating face-down in the reservoir with the homecoming queen's underwear in his teeth..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The strongest element of the psychological makeup of an ESFP is his easygoing, impulsive approach to life. ESFPs often build their careers out of dating supermodels, being involved in scandals, and appearing regularly in such newspapers as "The National Enquirer" and "The Weekly World News." ESFPs often die in bizarre circumstances, usually involving jealous boyfriends, exotic dancers, escaped pythons, feather boas, and falls from the penthouse floor of high-rise apartments; those who don't, usually die of veneral diseases..

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]INTP.[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]: The Egghead.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The typical INTP is a logical, abstract thinker whose intellect is ideally suited to understanding pure mathematics, linguistics, formal logic theory, and other pursuits unsuited to making a real living. The INTP can often understand even the most subtle nuances of lattice quantum chromodynamics, but cannot perform more concrete tasks such as dressing himself, operating a motor vehicle, or opening a door. An INTP may be able to tell you how to construct a nuclear reactor from a coconut and two pieces of string, but may be completely incapable of fixing a hole in a boat..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The INTP is really only suited to two careers: college professor and game show contestant. Of these career choices, only one offers the financial rewards which allows him to suport himself; for that reason, INTPs often take the other path, and become tenured academics..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]RECREATION: Surprisingly, INTPs are often the hit of the party--not for their sometimes annoying habit of turning every discussion into a debate about semantics nor for their fascinating stories about Pierre de Fermat's habit of writing things in the margins of his books, but for the fact that they often show up with their pants on backwards and that if you put a Post-It note reading "Kick Me" on an INTP's back, he won't notice it no matter how many people kick him.

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]INTJs are solid, competent personalities who may seem aloof and even arrogant, but who are typically highly skilled in any field which interests them. INTJs are confident in their skills and knowledge, self-assured, and imaginitive; their exceptional problem-solving skills make them ideal architects, auto mechanics, and tools of the evil empire. While it requires the driving will to conquer of an ENTJ to imagine the Death Star and the evil genius of an ENTP to invent its devastating weapons systems, the skill and technical prowess of the INTJ is what makes the whole thing work..

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The INTJ sees life as a problem to be solved. For that reason, the INTJ is the person a company brings in from the outside to streamline production processes and identify redundant assets for termination.

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]ISTP.[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]: The Psycho Vigilante.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]ISTPs are quiet, unassuming people, who tend to be mechanically gifted but withdrawn and reserved. ISTPs often need a great deal of personal space and "alone time," which may give others the impression that they are aloof; in reality, this time is necessary to hide their secret identities..
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]
.
[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]The typical ISTP leads a dual life; his outward reserve and quiet masks an inward seething rage at the injustice of life--often, the death of a loved one at the hands of a criminal. In this secret life, the ISTP uses his mechanical gifts to create a terrifying arsenal of bizarre weapons with which to strike fear into the heart of evil. Sometimes, ISTPs may become evil themselves, either slowly over a long period of time or in response to a perceived rejection from the very people they are trying to save..

Whether it's podcasting, taking up guitar, or running away to a far-off east African compound and joining a doomsday apocalyptic cult, ISFPs are always following their hearts and quickly embracing new ideas. However, they tend to be fleeting in their passions, which means they often may lack the dedication that marks a true cultist.

[FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]This generally expresses itself as an overwhelming urge to prove your self worth (and fatten your wallet) by taking advantage of the suckers, marks, and dupes who surround you--after all, isn't that what they're there for?

ENFJ here...apparently only 5% of the population. Interesting.

MissPickles, I'm an ENFJ too! I won't post the lengthy description but it's basically "The Giver". I think I'd make a good audiologist because I'm so concerned about making sure that everything is perfect for everyone else that my patients would receive excellent care.
