Myers-Briggs personality temperament test - are more artists "intuitive" or "sensing?

[Mike McCarty]

Khaimraj, we must be soul mates! I am INTJ. The numbers were: 22 - 33 - 11 - 56, I don't think I understand what the numbers mean, would that be obvious for an INTJ?

I'm INFP 56-22-22-22. I'm not sure exactly what the numbers mean in relation to how it scored me, but that's what I came up with! I am interested to see if artists tend to be one type over another, or if we're as diverse as any random crowd. I think its that nagging mathematician inside me that looks for interesting statistics. That and I'm as curious as a cat. Interesting that I'm a Sagittarius too.

Susan,

I'm just as curious too and also a Sagittarius.

Mike,

As long as you realize that Khaimraj is a man (chuckle) I am content to be soul friends, unless you're English, then just mates would be OK.

I haven't got the foggiest idea what these numbers mean either. Mine were 33-43-33-44. Just thought I would join in the fun. I had done another one of these online tests, that said I was 50/50 as left brain, right brain goes. Harmony.

However, I also did the Role Model Profiler and ended up with King Solomon, J. R. R. Tolkien, while Gandalf is an INTJ, if I remember correctly. I think I read too much L.O.R and Silmarillion when I was in my teens. Actually I still re-read the books.

Didn't the articles say that there were about 1% of us [INTJ's]? We must be up there with the Dodo birds or Carrier pigeons - chuckle.

Khaimraj,

In matters of this thread I am English. I like being in the company of Gandalf the Great. I wonder what Bilbo was? I also liked the name Fastoff Bolger, one of Bilbo's cousins, I think.

I am INFP. I am also Sagittarian, so usually curious. Perhaps you could run a poll of artists' star signs. That could be interesting.

I am new to this posting and find myself strangely short on words.

Hey, this is fun. I am an INTJ as well, but my numbers appear to be somewhat roller-coaster-ish. (11-56-11-33). Also, I am a Pisces. I wonder how the astrological signs will fit in with the Jungian types?

Thanks for (re)posting the thread, Cynthia.

So much for artists being all alike huh?

[Cynthia Daniel]

Margaret,

Yes, sun sign would be interesting to poll also, though there's so much more to astrology than just the sun sign. It would also be interesting to see if there's a connection between sun sign and personality type.

Everyone,

Please comment on whether you'd like to see a poll on

(1) sun sign alone

(2) sun sign related to personality type

[Renee Price]

I choose sun sign related to personality type. I'm a Leo and as I mentioned before, ENTJ. Both are right on target!
