Thought this would be a cool thing for everyone to do. Perhaps you've heard of the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator. It is a personality assessment designed to identify certain psychological differences according to the typological theories of Carl Gustav Jung. I thought that perhaps we could all take the short test, and then report back as to which type we all are. I think it would be a neat way to get to know your fellow GC posters...
The Test: Here
In Depth Look At Each Type: Here
Ok, so I'll start off...
My type is the INTJ. A brief description of the INTJ:
"INTJs are strong individualists who seek new angles or novel ways of looking at things. They enjoy coming to new understandings. They are insightful and mentally quick; however, this mental quickness may not always be outwardly apparent to others since they keep a great deal to themselves. They are very determined people who trust their vision of the possibilities, regardless of what others think. They may even be considered the most independent of all of the sixteen personality types. INTJs are at their best in quietly and firmly developing their ideas, theories, and principles."

Me? ENFP (Extrovert - 61%; iNtuitive - 55%; Feeling - 85%; Perceiving - 68%)
ENFPs are initiators of change who are keenly perceptive of possibilities, and who energize and stimulate through their contagious enthusiasm. They prefer the start-up phase of a project or relationship, and are tireless in the pursuit of new-found interests. ENFPs are able to anticipate the needs of others and to offer them needed help and appreciation. They bring zest, joy, liveliness, and fun to all aspects of their lives. They are at their best in situations that are fluid and changing, and that allow them to express their creativity and use their charisma. They tend to idealize people, and can be disappointed when reality fails to fulfill their expectations. They are easily frustrated if a project requires a great deal of follow up or attention to detail.

Halibut, here's what it saysabout us under 'Champion Idealists'. (I've already posted the basic stuff in my first response.)
Champions are introspective, cooperative, informative, and expressive. Champions have a strong desire to make their thoughts known to the world. When Champions speak or write, they are often hoping to use their convictions to motivate others to participate in advocacy or they hope to reveal a hidden truth about the human experience. Champions are greatly concerned with ethics and justice and have a strong desire to speak about current issues and events. They are the most inspiring and animated of the role variants.
Champions are very individualistic and they feel a need to experience significant social events. Champions consider intense emotional experiences to be vital to life and view the world as a drama. They are constantly seeking to learn about everything that has to do with advancement of good and the retreat of evil in the world.
Champions are keen observers of the people around them. They have exceptional intuitive abilities and are capable of intensely concentrating on a particular individual. Champions are often able to read hidden emotions and to place significance on the actions of others. Champions are constantly scanning their social environment and intriguing characters are not likely to escape their attention. Their attention is usually active rather than passive. Champions are sensitive and alert to what is possible.
Champions are warm, energetic, spontaneous, positive, exuberant and dramatic. Other individuals usually find these personality qualities to be attractive and often want to be in the company of Champions. Champions usually have good people skills and get along well with their colleagues.
Introverted (I) 79% Extraverted (E) 21%
Intuitive (N) 64% Sensing (S) 36%
Feeling (F) 70% Thinking (T) 30%
Perceiving (P) 68% Judging (J) 32%
I think many of the questions would change depending on the circumstances or the day.
I've found another interesting Personality Test... The Riso-Hudson Type Indicator...
you can take the test here.
my result was a Type 4 (Romantic):
your main type is the one with the highest score.
you have to look at the Type with HIGHEST score to find your type. everyone has portions of all 9 types. the list of types is NOT your score.
Type 2. Helper
World View: People depend on my help. I am needed.
Basic Desire: to be loved
Basic Fear: of being unloved
Yup, 'tis true.
AND....
Type 7. Enthusiast
World View: The world is full of opportunity and options. I look forward to the future.
Basic Desire: to be happy
Basic Fear: of being deprived
Basic fear used to be true, but no more.
On both of these I've gat a healthy green loop! :o)
Extraverted (E) 57% Introverted (I) 43%
