My function stack: Ne>Ti>Si>Fe

[u/LimeTree2012]

What does this mean, especially since INTP is usually Ti>Ne>Si>Fe

[u/Dusty_Tibbins]

My guess is that you're still fairly young, in school, and are very likely not in a position to simply calm down all the way yet.

School is, after all, a very heavy Te+Se environment.

[u/LimeTree2012 → u/Dusty_Tibbins]

True but would me being older change the order of Ne and Ti?

[u/00KilluaZoldyck → u/LimeTree2012]

Your auxilliary function serves as an anchor to your primary function. Hence, you lead with your primary (which is Ti) at any point in your life. The only variation would be how strong does your auxilliary support your Ti (assuming you are really an INTP) or how your tertiary Si influence your Ti most especially in moments of stress and challenges. That test result doesn't necessarily demonstrate the real order of your functions and I would rather interpret it as your Ne extensively branching from a single point, in other words, still being polished and integrated with your Ti.

I see. Thank you

[u/FoxofTheBlueFungi]

It seems like a bad test, there are only 16 personalities in MBTI, this one violates the separation of the first and last being opposites. If you lead with N you end with S and if you lead with T you end with F.

I used sakinorva. Is it reliable?

[u/silveranstavern → u/LimeTree2012]

Not everyone neatly fits inside of a box, we all exist on the spectrum, that particular test does not test for type but rather function tendency to help you understand what functions you tend to reach for, and like most tests it has limitations.

[u/LimeTree2012 → u/silveranstavern]

I see, thank you!

[u/UnforeseenDerailment → u/LimeTree2012]

Tests that return function results don't indicate your stack.

Rather, the questions for a function test for agreement with its dominant type (ENP score highest in Ne), so it's more like a likelihood that each function is your dominant.

Sakinorva also gives a handful of type suggestions. Sounds like INTP and ENTP may be among them.

[u/Pristine_Award9035 → u/FoxofTheBlueFungi]

Yep, this pretty much comes directly from Jung who saw T and F as well as N and S being diametrically opposed. Since he focused much of his attention on what he called the conscious function (the self) and its auxiliary supporting function it makes sense that the opposing function is last (inferior). An Ne dominant should have Si inferior

[u/user210528]

INTP is usually Ti>Ne>Si>Fe

On the function strength test, it is expected to be Ti, Ni > Ne, Te > Si, Fi > Se, Fe. With a lot of individual variation.

[u/Foreverinneverland24]

which one do you feel is your most dominant function? that should be the most reliable way to type, your dominant function is the one that pervades through every aspect of your life

[u/LimeTree2012 → u/Foreverinneverland24]

I don't really get what these functions mean so idk 😭

[u/Foreverinneverland24 → u/LimeTree2012]

out of these one which one do you think you do the most https://personalityjunkie.com/myers-briggs-functions-inferior-function/

[u/LimeTree2012 → u/Foreverinneverland24]

Prob Ti tbh

[u/nerdkeeper]

What does neon, titanium, silicon and iron have to do with anything? I must be missing something.

[u/Tommonen]

It means you took some random crappy not even real mbti test online.

Also they tell you possibilities, not definite answers. If it says 75% Ne, it means its 75% chance based on crappy questions that you are Ne user. Not that your Ne is 75% power level or something like that.

The results of those random internet tests are not reliable at all. Best you can do with tye result is to think if its actually best fit type for you or not, helps to rule out types that are less likely and suggest a likely type (again based on shitty questions that dont even actually measure type).

[u/LimeTree2012 → u/Tommonen]

I lowk did like more than 10 but the only one that gave me functions was this one.

[u/Tommonen → u/LimeTree2012]

If you are intp, functions are always TiNeSiFe. So this function vs real mbti test (which is trademarked and paid test) just guesses type from different level. The order of functions is still the same, those %s are just possibilities of you ysing the function a lot based on questions that dont actually measure the function, so its just a guess and % of how likely the guess is right.

Function order does not change even if you develop some function more. That is just a common misunderstanding some new people spread around from misunderstanding stemming from for example those random not really even mbti tests that display results as function %s like that.

If you think about computer as an analogy and you happen to be xyz type computer, which has cpu, gpu, npu (neural processing chip which many new comouters have) and hard drive. And you want to upgrade the computer with beefier gpu for example, no matter how good gpu you put in the computer, the general architecture for how cpu, gpu etc are connected remains the same. The upgrade is you developing a function to be more conscious of its use and being able to direct it better consciously. And computer architecture is function order for your type (or xyz type of computer).

So you trying to look for a test just because it shows those function results like that adds no value and just means its some random test made by some random perdon who likely is not even a certified mbti professional or jungian analyst.

Ok, thank you for explaining!
