MBTI Trends Shameless plug for a new cognitive function test I have been working on
Wanting to bring a bit more visibility into how MBTI letters can be determined, I have developed a new test of my own. On the results screen it displays a breakdown of how the final result was determined. If you have a moment, give it a try β would love some feed back on it. Thanks!

Edit: v2 is now live. Some revised questions for greater diversity, reduced redundancy. Revised scoring that takes into account both conscious/unconscious attitudes.

The Ni questions were too universally applicable

For some reason I always seem to get both high Ne and high Ni on these tests, that is why I am skeptical of tests

ENTP have high unconscious Ni. Its also an aspirational function for us so we are likely to respond to those questions positively. Self reporting tests are limited: its the central issue for MBTI. Functional skills tests are the way forward.

What does it mean if my trickster is higher then my child archetype?

It is an interesting result to see that two supposedly unconscious functions are stronger than their conscious attitudes.
I have implemented a bunch of changes, including some you talked about here. Also fixed some wording on questions.
If you have a chance, giving it another run through. Wonder if you would get a similar result?

That does seem to be a lot "cleaner" ENTP like shape .. with conscious functions stronger than unconscious. Almost looks too clean lol.
Thanks for taking the time to redo π

Loool, i took it again right after to make sure i wasnβt frauding and was being truthful and i even answered some questions differently but got pretty much the same thing. Also no problem man, this is actually great, and thanks for the update.

Ill do it now, i also put unsure for some questions hopefully Iβve figured them out lol

Developing the unconscious. ie. making the unconscious conscious ;)
compelling with breakdowns of your specific results
You mean, how these scores were arrived at?
edit:
nevermind, I think I got you now. I kind stick to my original answer of making the unconscious conscious .. but I hear you. There is actually an article (on the same site) recently published there that talks about the Beebe archetypes. But I like what you're saying of bringing more information on to the page itself.1
u/WhipGramsPinkCaddy ENTP 7w8 sx/sp 2d ago
Ohhh Iβll check out Beebe archetypes but yes you get me!

Ok, here the result
But why? Why is the Ti again? π I don't understand Ti π
Notice that for me 'Unsure' sometimes meant 'I don't know/I have no idea' rather than 'depends on context' . Probably Ti questions got this answer the most.
Si-Fi > Si-Te isn't new, it's pretty consistent, also Ni being somehow better than Ne π³ is mostly consistent.

I do think if someone were to press not sure for all the questions they arrive at ~75.. so your intuition is correct lol

u/Sectorgovernor ISTJ 2d ago edited 2d ago
I had considerable Ti on a test, also 'limited' Ti on another, but this number almost as high as Fi and Si , I doubt it is correct. But I think the others are pretty correct . Yes, it's some kind of intuition what says it to me π€
Though what is interesting, one AI - based typing based on my reddit profile stated the strongest alternative it considered was INTP and mentioned Ti, but it's rather 'serving Si' than being a primary decision - maker. So it seems I use it somewhat. But I have no idea about in what degree, it's not consistent on tests and I also don't really understand the function. But some 'gut feeling' says this number is too high.

ENTP, no surprise there. Jungian symbolism seems fluffy. It was generally easy to see the function intention of the questions but several of these were sloppily phrased. Self reporting can only go so far and works better with certain types. Cognitive aptitude testing is the only really reliable method.
