    This was originally at YJCC, but Bria suggested I re-post here at Miscellaneous.

    In psychology, there are 16 personality types. Each one is unique, and is in many ways it acts as a 'fingerprint' of the mind.

    I am under the impression that ALL SW fans have similar personalities.

    To put this hypothesis to the test, I am asking you to take this personality test.

    Let's compare our types and see if my hypothesis is correct, shall we?

    Who knows, you may even learn something about yourself that you never knew before....

    EDIT--I am classified as INFP.
    INFP = People of this type tend to be: quiet, reserved, and kind; deeply passionate, sensitive, and easily hurt; loving and dedicated to those close to them; creative, original, and imaginative; curious and flexible in small matters; nonconforming.

    The most important thing to INFPs is their deeply held beliefs and living in harmony with their values.

    INFJ, hmm?

    INFJ = People of this type tend to be: creative, original, and independent; thoughtful, warm, and sensitive; global thinkers with great passion for their unique vision; cautious, deliberate, and planful; organized, productive, and decisive; reserved and polite.

    The most important thing to INFJs is their ideas, and being faithful to their vision.

    ---------------------------------------------

    INTJ = People of this type tend to be: autonomous, aloof, and intellectual; imaginative, innovative, and unique; critical, analytical, and logical; intellectually curious, driven to learn and increase their competence and knowledge; socially cautious and reserved; organized and definitive.

    The most important thing to INTJs is their independence and being able to live according to their own standards.

    I'm an INTP

    INTPs love to solve problems and the bigger and more theoretical the problems, the more they enjoy it. INTPs want to understand their world in an honest way, so they challenge existing expert opinion until they have satisfied themselves that it is true. Some occasionally mistake this intellectual honesty for rebellion because INTPs are not shy about challenging some of society's accepted rules. INTPs hold intelligence in high esteem and will usually do well in school. INTPs make quiet friends who value their independence.


    And in my career choice they said that applied science was a good thing for me, I hate science!

    I came out an ENTP. The summary sounded better than the actual word 'Exravert'
    At this time there are things I would like to do that I do not do, simply because I am in the middle of making changes. But I guess its fairly accurate, depsite the fact I never considered myself an Exravert.

    :)

    Hehe, some people, famous and/or fictitious that are also ENTPs:

    Alexander the Great(How to they know that?)
    John Adams
    John Candy
    Alfred Hitchcock
    Tom Hanks
    Dave Spade

    Q..yes...Q from Star Trek.
    Bugs Bunny
    Wile E. Coyote--"Supah Genius"--LOL

    I am INFP. It fits.

    I liked the analogies:

    Rock tossed into a pond - hitting once and sinking deeply.

    Binoculars - making sure of the "big picture."

    Heart versus the head.

    Starting the race as opposed to finishing it. At the start, anything is possible.
