Personality types of poker pros - Page 5 - Micro Stakes Pot Limit and No Limit

I reckon Ps would kick Js' asses at poker, serious comment. However I wouldn't take the internet test too seriously as it often measures who you aspire to be and not who you are.

Think about waht you said if you pole a bunch of scientist and engineers you ill alos get a ton eof intp and intj but that is to be expected casue those personallyt types fit the job. Five or 6 years ago we ddi this at my old work (engineering) and from memery we were like 75% intp and intj

The description blatantly contradicts some of the questions they ask though. However, I'll take the bold popular and powerful description

Actually, yeah, I had to think about a few of these and go "am I actually like this?" and think of examples. Probably explains my switch from INTJ to ISTJ, if the test itself doesn't. v

In these short online versions people have more insentive to rate themselves as to how they like to be percieved, manipulating their actual personality.

kinda pulled it out off my ass at first, being an E/INTP

just a quick wiki:

Skeptics criticize the terminology of the MBTI as being so "vague and general" as to allow any kind of behavior to fit any personality type. They claim that this results in the Forer effect, where individuals give a high rating to a positive description that supposedly applies specifically to them.

Some researchers have interpreted the reliability of the test as being low. Studies have found that between 39% and 76% of those tested fall into different types upon retesting some weeks or years later

I like the test though, here's one that has a little more finesse.

INTJ (78/12/75/33)

FWIW, me in 2006:

INTJ (100/12/75/33), so remarkably consistent after 4 years
