breaking down the 16 personality types into practical explanations
We re temporarily holding off on writing new articles, in order to do some site maintenance. Some of our core content needs updating, such as the general type descriptions. We started doing this a few days ago, and I m not entirely sure how long it ll take, but I m thinking anywhere from 2-4 weeks. We ll resume posting [ ] The post Updates and Current Projects (7-14) appeared first on Practical…
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was quite a character, which made him an interesting subject for a Myers-Briggs personality type analysis. I’m not going to say up front what I’m speculating for his Myers-Briggs personality type (typically referred to as MBTI type). I think this is one of those instances where I’d rather step you through my [ ] The post The Myers-Briggs Personality Type of Wolfgang Mozart…
Over the years, I’ve seen all kinds of different logic used to justify one’s personality type. People take associations between certain dichotomies or cognitive function, create absolute rules, fail to recognize nuance, and end up with a poorly justified conclusion. Of course, poor logic doesn’t automatically mean an incorrect conclusion, but poor logic bugs me. [ ] The post Enjoying Fantasy Is…
My brain is currently rebelling against the confines of structure and the suffocation of advance preparation. So, I’m breaking from my various series to focus on a subject that I know we’ve touched on here and there, in other articles.

The ENTP, like every other personality type, has different stereotypes and descriptions associated with it. Many people have good things to say about the ENTP, but others have negative things to say. (The ENTP is the heartless, narcissistic debater, right?) However, in contrast, many online descriptions present highly idealized profiles of what an ENTP should [ ] The post What Does A Healthy ENTP…
We’ve been working on a series about the “signs you’re not” a particular personality type, and today’s personality type is ENTP. Of course, you could google the signs for any personality type and get plenty of articles to read through. However, I like to take the opposite approach, because sometimes negative information can make it [ ] The post 8 Signs You re Not An ENTP appeared first on…
ISTP vs. ISFP is a common typing dilemma, in spite of these two personality types have completely different dominant functions. We’ve written other articles in the past comparing Ti and Fi, which will likely seem similar to this article, since that is ultimately what’s determining the differences between the ISTP and ISFP. Specifically, if you [ ] The post ISTP vs. ISFP: 5 Differences appeared…
People like to search Google for the signs someone is a particular Myers-Briggs personality type, like the ISFP. However, I decided to dedicate a series to the opposite approach, the signs someone is NOT. So, today, I’ll discussing the signs that someone is NOT the ISFP personality type. Keep in mind that Ryan and I [ ] The post 9 Signs You’re Not An ISFP appeared first on Practical Typing .
ISFJ vs. INFP may seem like an odd typing dilemma to address, but in fact, the differences aren’t always immediately recognized or understood. There are certainly scenarios where ISFJs and INFPs can appear similar, and then there’s also instances when an ISFJ may resonate with an INFP description. However, ISFJs and INFPs only share one [ ] The post ISFJ vs. INFP: 6 Differences appeared first on…
As the Jungian intuition functions, Extraverted Intuition (Ne) and Introverted Intuition (Ni) draw a lot focus. Many people desire to be intuitives, but it actually doesn’t stop there. The NJs specifically attract many. This is in part due to the way they’re described, and in part due to the rarity statistics.
