purely in the interest of science (and statistics), i am imploring everyone to take this personality test. a bit of background: the test is based upon MBTI - myers-briggs type indicator, a system of archetypes that was prototyped by carl jung, and later put into further developments by different psychologists. each archetype has a different characteristics and has its share of traits.

note:

for people that don't want to take the test, please don't litter the thread with replies about likes and dislikes of tests or other. for people that have taken the test, but are reluctant in giving up their letter code because of employers or other; feel free to pm me your code. it will be kept confidential; however it may be used in anonymous statistics.

the test itself:

http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

[please read the following only if you have taken the test or if you do not intend to take the test]

the general idea is that, through taking the test, you are being judged on four different characteristics, represented by letters; below is a short description of the letter pairs, one being the opposite of the other.

E/I: extroverted or introverted. introverted people don't like to talk much, where as extroverted people like to talk.

S/N: sensing or intuitive. sensing people are concrete in thought, where as intuitive people are abstract in thought.

F/T: feeling or thinking. thinking types tend to look more at logic possibilities, whereas feeling types tend to focus on a "gut" feeling they have.

J/P: judgmental on percieving. judging types place judgment on people faster, whether you deliver assignments on time, whereas percieving does not judge people and may be late for appointments.

each archetype will have four subtypes, and each subtype has a different letter code. to see more about your specific subtype (and in general more about the characteristics), please follow this link:

The test is a waste of time if you don't click the highly informative links that describe the type of person in detail, Minos. The names don't really mean much.

Here is you http://typelogic.com/intp.html

And you are supposedly an architect http://keirsey.com/handler.aspx?s=keirs ... =architect

They're surprisingly accurate in a freaky analytical sense it seems (for me).

this link will take you to the overview, where each archetype is described:

- artisans are xSxP.

- guardians are xSxJ.

- idealists are xNFx.

- rationalists are xNTx.

can a mod please remove comments that have nothing to do with the thread? thank you.

also, whoever is controlling nexus right now: stop being an idiot.

[Thrik]

Whether you're the real Nexus or not, I'm going to ban you if you carry on littering threads with posts that offer no meaningful points of discussion, irritate other users, or are otherwise clearly undesirable.

The real Nexus was warned before, but seeing as I don't know if you're him here's the second warning. I typically don't give second warnings, and I definitely don't give third warnings.

The posts were removed just in case anyone's confused.

you should ban me now i don't deserve to be here any mo'

Guardian™ Portrait of the Protector (ISFJ)

We are lucky that Protectors make up as much as ten percent the population, because their primary interest is in the safety and security of those they care about - their family, their circle of friends, their students, their patients, their boss, their fellow-workers, or their employees. Protectors have an extraordinary sense of loyalty and responsibility in their makeup, and seem fulfilled in the degree they can shield others from the dirt and dangers of the world. Speculating and experimenting do not intrigue Protectors, who prefer to make do with time-honored and time-tested products and procedures rather than change to new. At work Protectors are seldom happy in situations where the rules are constantly changing, or where long-established ways of doing things are not respected. For their part, Protectors value tradition, both in the culture and in their family. Protectors believe deeply in the stability of social ranking conferred by birth, titles, offices, and credentials. And they cherish family history and enjoy caring for family property, from houses to heirlooms.

Wanting to be of service to others, Protectors find great satisfaction in assisting the downtrodden, and can deal with disability and neediness in others better than any other type. They are not as outgoing and talkative as the Provider Guardians [ESFJs], and their shyness is often misjudged as stiffness, even coldness, when in truth Protectors are warm-hearted and sympathetic, giving happily of themselves to those in need.

Their reserve ought really to be seen as an expression of their sincerity and seriousness of purpose. The most diligent of all the types, Protectors are willing to work long, hard hours quietly doing all the thankless jobs that others manage to avoid. Protectors are quite happy working alone; in fact, in positions of authority they may try to do everything themselves rather than direct others to get the job done. Thoroughness and frugality are also virtues for them. When Protectors undertake a task, they will complete it if humanly possible. They also know better than any other type the value of a dollar, and they abhor the squandering or misuse of money. To save, to put something aside against an unpredictable future, to prepare for emergencies-these are actions near and dear to the Protector's heart. For all these reasons, Protectors are frequently overworked, just as they are frequently misunderstood and undervalued. Their contributions, and also their economies, are often taken for granted, and they rarely get the gratitude they deserve.

Mother Teresa, George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Steward, and Tsar Nicholas II are examples of Protector Guardian style.
