Your Temperament
Your talents fit:
A Thinker
Your personality is a mixture of several character types, but the role
it most naturally fits is the thinker. Thinkers are problem-solvers.
They are curious to understand how things work, are always asking
questions, and tend to be drawn to projects that require innovation
and creativity.
Thinkers want to unlock the secrets of the world. They are selfcontained,
strong-willed, and find it important to feel capable and
skilled in the areas that interest them. They don't often follow customs
or rules, especially if they feel the customs or rules create a
less efficient way of doing something. They tend to be precise in
their use of language, independent, and skeptical of all ideas, even
their own. They are rare; statistics show that only five to seven
percent of the population are thinkers.
Thinker's Motto:
• I want understand how things work.
Natural job talents:
• No matter how simple the topic is, your brain is always striving
to make associations and connections. You want to know how
specific parts can fit together to create a working whole.
Best environment:
• You work best in an environment that is challenging and full
of complexities. You are fascinated by systems - whether they
may be mechanical systems such as cars, airports, or computers,
or social systems such as families and companies.
• Thinkers get the job done fast, are independent and goal-centered.
They operate well when in competition.
• Seek out opportunities that allow you to put these talents to
use. Avoid environments that don't challenge you or allow
room for you to mentally explore. When a boss or co-worker
is too strict or close-minded, you will feel suffocated and tend
to become stubborn toward that person and the task at hand.
Co-Workers:
• The best co-worker for you? Someone who is skilled at what
he or she does. In work environments, you are most impressed
by competency and unique abilities, rather than by personality.
• The worst co-worker for you? A slow learner or a person who
likes to talk just for the sake of small talk. You are bothered
by superficial people and pretenders.
Biggest challenge:
• Thinkers can tend to be pessimistic or skeptical. They are often
their own worst critic. Take care to limit these self-critical
tendencies. They decrease your mood and your overall feeling
of happiness in life.
Achilles Heel:
• Biggest fear: Not appearing capable or competent enough.
Your Strength:
• Your skill is in your independent nature and in your ability to
make interesting connections between facts. You notice associations
that other people tend to overlook.
Favorite Question:
• 'How and why?'. Artists are known for asking 'Where?'. They
want to know where the action is so that they can be there and
help to sculpt it. Protectors are known for asking 'What?'. They
want to keep things regulated. Idealists are known for asking
'Who?'. They are most concerned about how decisions and
actions affect people. Thinkers, however, are known for asking
'How and why?'. They want to figure out how things work and
what the big picture is.

The Four Temperaments
The Idealist
Idealists are the type of people who live in a dream world of
thoughts and hopes for a better future. They are the teachers,
philosophers, and counselors of the world. They have a strong moral
and ethical side, and they are often day-dreaming. They are imaginative,
people-centered, and caring. Their role in society: to inspire,
teach, and counsel. Their biggest strength: their sensitivity and their
imagination. Their primary thinking modes: intuitive-feeling. Mahatma
Gandhi and Eleanor Roosevelt are examples of idealists.
The Artist
Artists are the type of people who always need to have something
in their hands. They are the entertainers, performers, and craftspeople
of the world. They are daring, seek new sensations, and like to
use their talents to make an impact on others. They are always busy.
Their role in society: to create and entertain, to make the world a
more interesting place. Their biggest strength: their focus on the
'here and now', their ability to improvise, and their 'just do it, don't
think about it' attitude. Their primary thinking modes: sensing-perceiving.
Elvis Presley, Amelia Earhart, and Ernest Hemingway are
examples of artists.
The Protector
Protectors are the type of people who are practical and down-toearth.
They are the guardians, providers, and administrators of the
world. They are logical and clear-minded. They pride themselves
in being reliable and accurate, and place a high value on trust and
17 loyalty. Their role in society: to maintain standards, take charge,
and keep life running smoothly. Their biggest strength: they stick
to their word, are clear-minded, and can be counted on. Their primary
thinking modes: sensing-judging. Mother Teresa, Queen
Elizabeth II, and George Washington are examples of protectors.
The Thinker
Thinkers are the type of people who are always asking questions.
They are the inventors, engineers, and re-arrangers of the world.
They trust in logic and reason, yet value creativity. They don't care
much about other people's opinions. Their role in society: to come
up with strategies, inventions, plans, and ways of rearranging reality.
Their biggest strength: their ability to connect facts in unique ways.
Their primary thinking modes: intuitive-thinking. Albert Einstein,
Marie Curie, and Walt Disney are examples of thinkers.

yes.. thanks for the keg.. you DID read the bold print, didn't you? ;)
Good science/news tip! I'll try to catch some it. Hopefully, the night sky will be cloudless.
Strong Leonid Meteor Shower Expected This Weekend Robert Roy Britt
Senior Science Writer
SPACE.com
Tue Nov 14, 3:15 PM ET
The annual Leonid meteor shower could produce a strong outburst this weekend for residents of the North America and Western Europe.
A brief surge of activity is expected begin around 11:45 p.m. ET Saturday, Nov. 18. In Europe, that corresponds to early Sunday morning, Nov. 19 at 4:45 GMT. The outburst could last up to two hours.
At the peak, people in these favorable locations could see up to 150 shooting stars per hour, or more than two per minute.
"We expect an outburst of more than 100 Leonids per hour," said Bill Cooke, the head of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. Cooke notes that the shooting stars during this peak period are likely to be faint, however, created by very small meteoroid grains.
Elsewhere people will see the typically enjoyable Leonid display of a few meteors each hour, weather permitting and assuming dark skies away from city lights [Top 10 Leonids Facts].
Ancient debris
The Leonids are bits of debris left behind by repeated passages through the inner solar system of the comet Tempel-Tuttle. Each November, Earth crosses various trails of debris, which have spread out over centuries and millennia. Dense debris trails have caused incredible meteor storms in years, past, notably 1998 through 2002 [Images from 2001: Gallery 1, 2, 3, 4].
Since then the show has been back to normal. But recent computer modeling suggests a brief outburst.
"For parts of Europe, Africa and eastern North America, a far more prolific Leonid show could be in the offing this year," said Joe Rao, SPACE.com's Skywatching Columnist.
This year is not expected to be as memorable as some but well worth a look, astronomers say. The Leonids are known for producing bright fireballs, which could occur at any time.
The Leonids are so-named because they appear to emanate from Leo. The meteors can race across the sky in any direction, but trace each one back and it'll point to Leo.
Other opportunities
Unfortunately for viewer's on the U.S. West Coast, the peak occurs before Leo rises. Outside of the expected peak, the best time to watch for Leonids is in the pre-dawn hours, when the constellation Leo is high in the sky.
The Leonids are actually underway already, ramping up gradually to the peak. The event continues for several days after the peak. So any morning during this time could offer up a handful of meteors each hour. Other shooting stars from other sources typically grace the sky at low rates, too.
Flurries of enhanced activity can come at any time. Cooke suggests taking a look in the pre-dawn hours Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Up to 10 shooting stars per hour are possible any of these mornings.
How to watch
Precise prediction of meteor showers is an infant science, so those in position to observe the possible outburst should plan to head out a half-hour before the predicted peak, allowing eyes time to adjust to the dark, and stay out for up to a half hour after the expected peak.
No special equipment is needed. Telescopes and binoculars are of no use.
A lounge chair or blanket and warm clothes and a keg of beer compliments of bartermania are all you need [meteor watching tips]. Find a dark location with a clear view of the Eastern horizon. Lie back, face East, and scan as much of the sky as you can . You never know exactly where a Leonid will appear.

"Can you just pick the one you WANT to be?" In your case...probably Yes. Which one do you want to be? Do any of the three feel best? Maybe you will get 3 #'s next to your ID. Maybe that's fair. Why should you have to choose...if, you cannot decide??? I don't know.
So, what should we do: leave it blank after your ID, put one # after it, or should we put all three?...4,5 & 9
ps. Please let us know what you want to do.
Thank you,
-bart-
yes, I tend to look at things in a humorous way, have a hard time taking things serious. at least until I started reading the FED board.. lol
Seriously though, that has had a profound affect on me.. I am NOT the same person I was. What I've learned is with me every minute but when I go home, while I'm with the family, I will put it out of my mind for awhile and just enjoy their company. Otherwise, I can't stop thinking about "things".
"the grumpies always get better, wonder why that is..why do we want to change a grump into a smiley face.. can't be just for satisfaction can it"
no, it's a good satisfying feeling but the reason for doing it in the first place is a four letter word. ;) too mushy to put in print. lol
It's all about who controls the money. From that point all else falls into place. But, how many of us were told this or really understood what was going on when we were growing up? Very few...if, any at all...in the oppressed classes. The knowledge base is changing because of the Net. Like the printing press before it...it is liberating the masses by allowing them to have information they did not know existed...ie. much more of the truth...and of course those at the top want to change this trend.
No idea whether you tend to be more extraverted than introverted...intuitive than sensing...thinking than feeling...and/or judgemental than perceiving in general? Based on what these are supposed to reflect/represent...isn't it possible to find a somewhat descriptive "label" (bad word?) of sorts? It's not anything set in stone...rather it's a rough but, hopefully somewhat accurate description. Not possible?
There are some folks that really don't want others to know too much about them....I've talked with at least 2 to this point. Maybe in your case it can't be done. Maybe you don't want to do it. We all know you don't have to do it. A rebel with a cause. :)
Here are some other things which are not tested but are very important traits of people: physical beauty, physical strength, intelligence and character (good versus bad issues). These four letter descriptions certainly don't tell it all. These tests are tools that can be useful in helping communication and understanding. Hopefully, they will not make communication worse. They are tests that are designed to show preferences...especially, the MBTI tests. It is possible to to be right in the middle of all of the functions...and thus, one could say they were unbiased. If, that is the case...then, that is the case.
For me, these tests still help me to better understand who I'm dealing/interacting/talking with. And these tests and the answers given, in all respects, can be manipulated. Lies to one's self and others will likely become apparent with time...that is to say that dishonest people could give/present false information. But, since actions speak louder than words...over time others should be able to see the inconsistencies. The way one writes: the words used, how they are used and so on presents a lot of information IMO to one who is attentive to such things.
Yeah, I'd like to have fun here too :) But, I'm also hoping to learn some things (generalizations and more) about others...hopefully, through the use of some self-identifying tools...and develop some good friendships if, possible. You can honestly make the attempts to find some of these labels that best fit you or you may not. I cannot force you nor will I try. At this point, I'm stilling trying to find people who are interested in putting a few helpful labels on themselves...so, I can understand where they may be coming from better and also to let others know where I'm coming from better.
All of this is about knowing yourself better and others too. This is a process. It is not static. I am not preaching laws. I am talking about things (again especially MBTI) that are helpful and do work. Our knowledge/the knowledge is not complete...nor are we as people. Most people have particular tendencies...likes and dislikes...do you? If so, that's again what the MBTI test seeks to find.
This board is a work in progress. I'm still considering many things. Hopefully, many folks will find others they like and get along with well here. Hopefully, people will learn a little more about people and themselves too...if, they so choose.
and you know what.. it is cleansing of the spirit to know what is making it function so horribly. Many of us do have answers to the many questions now is the fix on its way? I don't think it will take the mass to be educated to fix it, or maybe it will. I don't know yet.
through out history examples have been laid out and some things were fixed but it went right back to the same old same old.
whatcha think
we are a like in that manner. love laughter. the grumpies always get better, wonder why that is..why do we want to change a grump into a smiley face.. can't be just for satisfaction can it.. The peacemaker.....
factors of these tests do not include age, environmental, medications (vaccines), education, heredity, diet, life experiences.
I wouldn't even think on holding anyone to what a type is. after all we are all a changing process.
Try to make it fun will ya ggg.
reveal the soul...
we need some HUMOR:)
OK, today I am a philosopher:)
Very well said! I've spent most of my life trying to figure-out why everything just seemed, felt and worked/functioned so wrongly. It's been like breaking through a series of boxes and cages...both for the mind and the body.
"you made me smile"
you made my day because very little gives me more satisfaction that making someone smile.. :)
at my house, if my wife or son get upset over anything.. I can not let it stand, I WILL fix that and I tell them by the time I'm done I will change that frown to a smile.
I have yet to fail on that score.. LOL I just won't tolerate unhappiness in those I'm close to.. no freakin' way, life's too short! Sometimes it takes longer than it does others but I always win them over. I find a way to make them have a good day.
I learned not to get caught up and be reactionary.
it's funny sometimes how people will resist it.. just leaking out a little smile, trying hard not to go all the way to happy, guess it makes their previous disposition look silly to them.. lol
all are brothers and sisters in the struggle, we don't need the DNA match ggg
I'm still thinking. Does this summary help at all? http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/descript.asp?discover
You didn't use this one did you?...not that it will ultimately resolve the issue. #'s 4,5 & 9
ps. I'm thinking it may be necessary or a good idea to allow people to describe themselves with maybe 3 adjectives. Thoughts? Anyone?
you made me smile:) The Hope is turns into reality:)

"All my life I knew that there had to be an explanation for all the world's problems"
All my life, I knew something was not quite right but could never really understand what it was. I saw the problems in the world and they looked quite simple to fix.. .so why were they not BEING fixed?
I have always felt that I could fix the world... but who would listen.. nobody would I felt. Who am I after all, just some fool who thinks too much...
You only need two things to fix the world's problems. You must know the difference between right and wrong. You must have compassion to help those in need. That's it!
Our politicians, our world leaders have neither of those qualities for the most part.
"I am but one small instrument in the symphony of awakening. We will have our orchestra! Our struggle will bring more instruments! The heavens will rejoice as the leg irons fall from the people of the world."
simply beautiful! ..and encouraging :)
thank you so much for your kinds words.
I didn't know that board was here quite honestly, or I would have been contributing for much longer. From a woman's point of view, you all have done a great service to the I HUB community and to mankind.
Each of us are part of the awakening on this planet and I can't help but be excited to meet like minded folks who have cut thru the matrix.
All my life I knew that there had to be an explanation for all the world's problems. I have to admit I went to sleep after Nixon left office. They keep us so busy making a living we don't take time out for other things that are and should be important.
I rejoice at the awakening. I know our numbers grow every day and that's not what the powers that be figured, they planned on many but not millions IMHO.
WE are so lucky that we have the technology these days to educate, inform, arouse and debate what is most important to all civilization. "The truth"....as the Truth will set us all free from the chains of suppression.
The illusion that they was created is now ugly for me, I hate the illusion. I despise it, I attack it... I want to tear it down to show the world and the People of this Great land that they have gone through life believing in myths, lies and distortions.
Together we all can do the job. Some can't be helped I suppose. Some people prefer myths to reality, after all it's on TV, so it must true.
TV does control the mind.
I am but one small instrument in the symphony of awakening. We will have our orchestra! Our struggle will bring more instruments! The heavens will rejoice as the leg irons fall from the people of the world.
Walk Free>
Very interesting :) Let me think for a minute or so on this.
Thanks.
ps. Hopefully, you will know yourself better than anyone else does. Sometimes though, it is very helpful to have a close, valued and trusted friend describe you...what they see...what they like and so on. In fact, it's through communication such as this (with good friends at home or here) that hopefully, better self awareness, growth and understanding will occur. Nothing forced...just natural hopefully: better, healthier, more positive stuff. :)
Yes, no test can accurately gauge the seemingly infinite variety that exists between people. But, these tests and others can give folks a rough idea about what it is that makes particular folks "tick" and how they tend to interact with people and the external world and how they process information. These tests seem to be tests about individual preferences. It's sort of like describing the way an individual is organized and tends to function. Studies and one's own experience will likely confirm that there is some truth and knowledge to be gained from theses tests/tools. I for one tend not to get along with people who are sensors "S's" too well...that isn't always the case, it's just that my mind is set-up and working in a very different way from theirs...generally. I think many "S's" think I'm "nuts" so speak...because, they don't understand how my mind works and where my focus is: my focus tends to be on ideas and concepts and not nearly so much on individual actual physical objects...also meaning, I'd generally rather work within my own head on such things...rather than framing houses which I often do. I don't mind using my hands to make things...like working with wood or drawing and such (that's usually done by me for pleasure and solely to create something that I feel like making/creating/working on). I don't know. As always, I'm trying to know myself better and other too. I want to make some good friends, have some interesting conversations and hopefully, have some fun.
As I recall, online dating sites like Match.com and Yahoo may use/try to identify people by groupings such as "Rebel", "Observer", "Individualist" and so on. I wouldn't mind having that info here...if, someone (maybe myself) could find it. This type stuff and tests can be fun to use...I hope. They can also sometimes confuse the heck out of people. In essence, what I'm trying to do with this board is make it easier for iHub folks to get & have a rough idea of what someone is like (ie. how they tend to function, interact and process things in this world) so, these so called "types" and #'s and/or whatever can be used for better understanding and communication. To understand better "where someone is coming from"...these type indicators IMO are rather useful. It's like a short-hand reference to refer to when needed. All the actions and interactions that occur afterwards are the responsibilities of those involved. Type studies can help one to understand one's self better and others. They can also be used to understand and hopefully help to fix problems if, and when they develop in any relationship (friendship or otherwise).
I'm a rebel with a cause who likes to help others.
We could be sisters!
Very nicely said easy. Very nice.
Done.
Type Two; The Helper.
The caring, interpersonal type. Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warmhearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. The typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs.
At their best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.
(The last part sounds like I'm someone's loyal canine friend.)
lol.
Hmm
Maybe you could guess better.:)
I can see how I might have been 4 in the past, but I think I've over come it.:)
I could be a 5, completely lost in thoughts, for obscenely long periods of time. Nothing earth-shattering seems to come from it though.
Force myself out of my head and 9 seems to fit.
Not as interesting, but more effective at a 9.
It's easier and I accomplish more. That could be a definition of type.
But maybe too easy though, like auto-pilot.
Can you just pick the one you WANT to be?
('course I probably couldn't choose that either)
Thank you for sharing that with us! IMO, and probably others too, you're a very beautiful woman and quite exceptional. I'm actually very glad :D to know you're part of the NQFC board now....I was before too, I just had no idea that any women were all that interested (from iHub) in what was happening with that board. I think there were a couple of women who posted and/or were following that board earlier this year....I just have no idea what the true situation is now. You've given us some balance, in a gender sense, which IMO was much needed and and is also IMSO much desired.
Thank you!
yep 20 years ago
I have never been a conformist either. Very well said! Is that you in the middle photo?
Maybe. I can't say that these type tests accurately and perfectly reflect me. What I would much rather say and do is: describe myself as I am...what I can do well and what I generally can't & don't do well. I would actually rather explain what my life is like for me...how I perceive and process things rather than, use someone else's summary of type to describe me.
Here's me talking about myself: I can read people. I spend almost all of my time in my own head. I am constantly thinking and figuring...trying to rework and rearrange thoughts and ideas in my head to see which makes the most sense and/or is most likely to be true...probability. I have several original theories...both in the natural sciences and in human development/social-societal development areas. I will work on a problem, that I find fascinating (in my head) until I figure it out. "Ah hah" type of events tend to occur for me from doing this. It's all mental of course. I work with words/ideas/concepts and theories...largely non-math based....So, probability...a weighing of sorts is used...the ability to mentally weigh and yes use my feelings at the end...to check the result for possible character/morality flaws. FWIW...and in case anyone's interested. I'd like to learn about you folks posting on this board too...if, you're willing to let me and the others following this board know more about you.
Thanks.

very well written easy..

http://www.investorshub.com/boards/photos.asp?page=10
I'm a rebel with a cause who likes to help others. I have been told often that I can't save the world. I don't agree, I along with others such as yourselves, we CAN make a difference in the world we live. Each one of us can touch another to bring peace and change. This small group of great people right here can help and does after all. I know each one of us has something great to contribute. That is what life is about all about, unique in our own way, we all have something to give.
We all don't need to fit the mold that a (warped) society thinks we should be.. expression of new ideas, the ability to communicate love, understanding, change for the better, and most of all peace within ourselves that we know we tried to make a difference.
All being unique as Our creator intended,
there is no test for that.
Good morning Micheal.
Here are my Jung results.
Your type is: ESFJ
ESFJ - "Seller". Most sociable of all types. Nurturer of harmony. Outstanding host or hostesses. 12.3% of total population.
Extroverted (E) 67.74% Introverted (I) 32.26
Sensing (S) 63.33% Intuitive (N) 36.67%
Feeling (F) 56.25% Thinking (T) 43.75
Judging (J) 57.78% Perceiving (P) 42.42%
Interesting :) I keep saying you've got more (extraverted) feeling than me.
Then you are quite talented at this.
My mother as an example (ISTP), was sure she would be an E.
But maybe she just has less of a preference for I...
It didn't work for me, to compare from me. A difference could just be a difference in degree rather than a fundamental difference.
Jung Test Results
http://similarminds.com/cgi-bin/newmb.pl

Feeling (F) 51.35% Thinking (T) 48.65%
Perceiving (P) 67.57% Judging (J) 32.43%
Your type is: INFP
diff test, diff results... hmmmm..
In order to even come close and have good reasons for this...one has to know another very well IMO. I will only venture that easymoney 101 is a "J" at this point...based on my knowledge, which is quite limited in this case.
" trouble picking the less "worst" choice".... I believe I had the same problem. This is probably the case for most. What enneagram type description seems to fit you best? Can you get a # this way?
Yes. You would think.:)
Which one do you prefer? Can you possibly choose one? Maybe there's another good enneagram test out there...a longer one. Maybe a longer test...if, it was also good could help. Maybe.
They tell me I'm
a 4, 5, or 9
1 = 3
2 = 4
3 = 4
4 = 6
5 = 6
6 = 3
7 = 4
8 = 0
9 = 6
dissociative identity disorder :)
Really just had trouble picking the less "worst" choice...
thanks zoze, that's interesting and surprising. Not sure what it means but you'd think you would know your own mother well enough to be fairly accurate.
then again... we don't always even know ourselves that well. :)
It seems to take a lot of thought, feeling and study to succeed at this. I figured out my mom's mom and my mom's sisters (recently)...for the most part (but, I needed to get a lot of info. from my mom, reflect & think a lot and confer even more...until, I felt I'd got it right). I've got my immediate family figured too...but, this has taken all my experiences with them...much introspection on my part...a lot of figuring and all the knowledge of type I have plus...all my differences from them to reach sensible answers.
Not dumb.
Actually I tried that with a few people I was pretty familiar with (i.e. my mother.)
I was wrong every time.
Could be my deductive abilities are flawed,
or
people don't present themselves the way they truly are.
One way to get a handle on this is to look at the type description summaries and see which one is most like one's self. If, someone hasn't done this stuff before it can be tricky. I see no need to rush anyone here FWIW. Hopefully, in time, they will be able to feel most comfortable with one type. Though all along, we all admit that we all have some of each type (function) in us...it's the use and non-use that shows up in the results.
Hey, how about that game of yours: Trying to guess the iHub member's "Personality Type"?
What type do you think easymoney101 will pick for himself...in the end, end up testing as?
the fix is on!!
the test results seem to indicate what parts of you showed up when the test is taken..
whatever color the chameleon is at the moment but, you will soon find out that if taken honestly, you will fall into a small group..
what do you think you are based on the results you have had?
which do you think best describes you?
don't know who I will be today, life is a forever changing event.

(5/29/2012) - this is an update for those folks @ planet.infowars.com : i think this site: http://personalitycafe.com/forum/ … is probably one of the best places to go to learn about Personality Types that's out there now. i think it was being created when i was an active member at similarminds.com's forum…several times while i was at s-minds, several other people who were creating personality type sites would post about their new sites/ with links trying to get us to test them out/become involved members and so on. i'm rather certain personality cafe is one of them. i've read some excellent discussions there recently about my own "type" and how folks like me tend to interact with some other pairings… the like INFP & ENFP and so on. so yes, i Highly recommend this site!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some helpful personality type links. For those who are new to this, you may want to take more than one test. I'm still looking to find the best test(s) out there. Suggestions are welcomed (bart)....

MBTI TYPE TODAY...type characteristics: http://www.mbtitoday.org/typechars.html
The two women developed a structure of sixteen types based on four dichotomies which result in the well-known 4 letter types. Each question in the MBTI® assessment asks you to make a choice between preferences. Each answer is like a vote.
Extraversion or Introversion Focus of Energy
Sensing or iNtuition Preference in taking in information
Thinking or Feeling Preference in coming to conclusions
Judging or Perception Preferred attitude in the outer world
If we prefer Extraversion, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging, we speak of ourselves as preferring ESTJ. There are 16 combinations of these eight preferences, thus sixteen types.

- So far, this is our favorite free "MBTI Personality Type" test: the "Jung Test" [just submit your gender and click the "next" button]: http://similarminds.com/jung.html .... IMO, the type summaries/desciptions given the end of this test are very much biased toward "E's"...ie. it doesn't say very many nice things about the "I's" if any, at all FWIW. So, here are some of the better MBTI Type descriptions/summaries that I've found to this point: http://www.personalitypage.com/high-level.html .. and: http://www.geocities.com/lifexplore/mbtypes.htm
- In order to find "the number/Enneagram type", that is associated with your "MBTI personality type", go to: http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/dis_sample_36.asp for a test. Here's are two good Enneagram test results 1-9 summarys/descriptions: http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=14868275 .. http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/descript.asp?discover
