#51628 Briggs-Meyers Personality Test
Posted: Tue May 05, 2009 5:19 pm
Kirĸe asked this question.
I thought it might be interesting to compare the results of the MBTI with the results of the Political Compass test. I have the following data for those Board writers who took both tests:
Black Sheep, ENFJ, -5.5, -4.16
Waldorf, ENFJ, -5.0, 0.2
Cuddlefish, ISTJ, -3.75, -1.95
Hermia, ISTJ, -3.50, -1.28
Whistler, INTJ, -3.25, -3.95, red
habiba, INTJ, -3.25, -2.26, red, blue
Laser Jock, INTJ, -1.62, -0.77, solid, red
CPM, INTJ, -0.13, -1.18
Kirĸe, INTJ, 6.88, -0.51, distinct INTJ
Tao, ENTJ, 0.0, 0.21
Claudio, INFJ, 0.38, -1.95
Cognoscente, INFJ, 3.38, -2.05, really blue
The point on the political compass for Waldorf comes from the chart posted by Whistler for Waldorf and Sauron.
It is interesting that you can go left to right on the political compass and find that the ENFJs as the two left-most writers. the two ISTJs are the second left-most writers, the INTJs are next with Kirĸe as an anomaly, then next comes Tao as the only ENTJ, and finally the two most right-wing writers (with the exception of Kirĸe) are the two INFJs.
Probably there is insufficient data here to make a strong correlation of personality type and political orientation, but it does make me wonder.
