How good are the 16 personalities test?
And no, no one wants to know your test result
How good are the 16 personalities test?
It's got kind of a bad rep among "higher" psychologists.
indiana.edu
The descriptions are often seen as too vague and flattering, some people get a different result every time they take the test, and even among people who have a "stable" personality type there is little correlation as to how they perform in the field they're recommended. It's still fun though
I think there are other psychology tests that are more accepted among professionals, like the occupational personality questionnaire, The Hogan personality inventory, or the big five. And those tests don't really put people into categories, except for some interpretations of big five, it's mostly used to know how much a trait is present in you (for example how "open" you are).
But even then those tests are mostly used as indicative values.
>The Hogan personality inventory, or the big five
>none of them are free

similarminds.com
you can try that one if you want an idea of what the big five is about. Be warned though, the big five type descriptions aren't nearly as flattering as the MBTI ones, look at this one for example similarminds.com
The US Army did an extensive study of it, and found it had zero (0) usefulness or accuracy. Not only do people frequenty get different results when they re-take the test, there is no correlation at all between education and career and MB "type".

>Well, I was labeled an INTP so that is always good.
It's a meme test.
any kind of personality have a good side
what are you implying?
also any trait that you have if extremist is a bad trait, so even things like friendly or innovative van be bad

Wow it's spot-on. I expected it to get a few hits and a few misses, but I agree with literally every word of this analysis.
>communist atheist neckbeard

I don't know how you saw "communist" there, my primary type was "egocentric". But anyway, I'm just commenting on the accuracy of the test, in contrast to the kind of shit MBTI tests spew out, where typically half are "hits" and half are "misses".
does not value tradition > globalist > communist lover (probably)
vey good test
not afraid of doing the wrong things, does not value rules and regulations, prefers unpredictable to organized, does not accomplish work on time, needs to maintain high levels of excitement, out for own personal gain, not afraid to draw attention to self, more pleasure seeking than responsible, not bothered by disorder, retaliatory, thrives on the rush of risk taking, unpredictable, asks questions that nobody else does, often does not know what they are doing, spontaneous, first to act, not easily hurt, not apprehensive about new encounters, does not readily admit mistakes, not a perfectionist, not apologetic, disorganized, socially comfortable, outgoing, calm in crisis, fearless, atheist/agnostic tendencies, good at getting people to have fun, opinionated, not easily moved to tears, sexually immodest, adventurous, unconventional, aggressive, often late, high energy level, likes the spotlight, ambivalent about the needs of others, worry free, acts without thinking or planning, bad at saving money, selfish
Communism is 100 years out of date, it's not compatible with what we now about how the world works. Basic principles of freedom and self ownership are much more appealing to me than "spreading the wealth" and helping "society" are.
Oh my fucking god look at mine:

being an asshole is not in your personality, its the way that you see life
someone bumps in you while walking down the sidewalk

Modern capitalism is just as dated. Neither suit the true needs of a modern people, nor aim to elevate them.

Is it the role of an economic system to "elevate"? Capitalism works better than anything else we've come up with, in 100 years the Chinks will have given everyone a 150 IQ and then we can come up with something better, until then the current hybrid economies could use some tinkering but serve the role perfectly adequately.
Actually on the OCEAN scale, "asshole" is someone with a very low score in Agreeableness.
well you're shits all retarded
Agreeableness: (friendly/compassionate vs. analytical/detached). A tendency to be compassionate and cooperative rather than suspicious and antagonistic towards others. It is also a measure of one's trusting and helpful nature, and whether a person is generally well-tempered or not. High agreeableness is often seen as naive or submissive. >Low agreeableness personalities are often competitive or challenging people, which can be seen as argumentative or untrustworthy.
nah,
how is that not "asshole"? Suspicious and antagonistic? Argumentative and untrustworthy? NOT compasionate or cooperative? NOT trusting or helpful?
Y-you too

Something easy like pantheism or one of those flavors of New Age woowoo.
Personally if I had the capacity to believe in magic, I'd be a spiritualist.
well you might be right.
my point is that you can be a competitive/untrustworthy/etc person with most people and still be a pleasant person with those you care, but that's highly improbable, so you are problably right
I'll take both! Everything is the manifestation of almighty kek and his meme magic!

You being unaware of how things influence you doesn't mean they don't, user.
This seems to be more specific and accurate than 16 personalities which is a horoscope test and I constantly get different shit
go on the lowe button to take the traits like did
Also this seems to be pretty accurate (but I will point out the inaccurate parts):

The "Global5/SLOANtype" is comically negative. (I mean "wounded at the core"...) It's not without a grain of truth, but a decent number of the traits it assigned to me are just bull. It also says that a favoured career for me is "assassin".

Its just me at the moment although its not my original idea
Control+F9 didn't do anything
Yeah but it does seem to correlate - you compare drama students to science students. I don't know what they score, but at least on MBTI posts on Veeky Forums they all fall into similar catergories - INTP, INTJ.
Just go Ctrl+F, then type in 99. Scroll to bottom
Doesn't help any to bully though

Diss so long it needed two posts. I would disagree that I'm easily offended. I guess selfish as well. If I had anything to give anyone (materially) I would. I'm also generally driven by other things than just 'personal gain', but yeah. This is me, in general.
You was right. They really aren't playing when it comes to being unflattering.
>Extroversion results were very low which suggests you are extremely reclusive, quiet, unassertive, and private.
>Orderliness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly flexible, random, scattered, and fun seeking at the expense of structure, reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.
>Emotional Stability results were low which suggests you are very worrying, insecure, emotional, and anxious.
>Accommodation results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly selfish, uncooperative, and difficult at the expense of the well being of others.
>Inquisitiveness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly small minded, traditional, and conventional at the expense of intellectual curiousity, possibility, and progress.

Its easy to lie on these tests. Even trained lie-detectors have very low detection rates. Psychology will never be a science because humans are unpredictable. Successful prediction of human behavior is confirmation bias or luck.

Yeah that sounds about right.
ayy got the same. based scoei
I'd see one of the biggest problems also being that people are layered and contradictory. Questions like "are you this or that" often you're both and it just depends which one you're leaning more towards based on mood, situation, state of mind etc. But I think people try to view themselves in a stable, orderly way, try to create some sense of identity, so they tend to avoid seeing that and will easily identify with what these tests are saying/asking.
I've noticed with myersbriggs that people who get the same result every single time tend to get INTJ and these people tend to be like really stereotypical asperger types who want total structure and rigidness and tend to not change their perspective or personality much throughout their life. So I guess many people have molded themselves into this identity to maintain stability and order.

I posted my opinions, not my actions. I'm happy to help others, consult and cooperate with them, but overall the suffering of everyone doesn't get me down. I just don't have the energy to feel sad for the whole world. I'd like to think of myself as a generous person, at least.
