What`s your type:)

What's your type?

For the month of February, I think I'll be posting stuffs like this other than humor and GIFs and cats probably. One by one, I will describe each type in a certain perspective because I just like it. I will focus much on the behavior (Keirsey Temp.), btw.

What is the MBTI/Keirsey Temperament?
- People are arguing whether it belongs in psychology or pseudo-psychology but that is actually none of my business. It is quite interesting though. Although it is a personality assessment [The Big Five, ftw! lol], I do think it is merely a mechanism of perception and judgment of an individual.

How can I know my type?
- You can actually read all the types and identify yourself with one. YOU are the best person to identify your own type because nobody knows you more than yourself (duh...); OR
- You can take tests

Where?
- The test can be found in a lot of places. HOWEVER, most of these are unreliable.
- While the theory where the MBTI originated is quite expandable and awesome, the test of MBTI itself is quite problematic. Some tests look really dumb and to some people, the results change when they take the test again for like two months or so. Again, you are the best person to identify your own type.

How many types are there?
- The combination of these letters total up to 16 types.

Can I be on two or more types?
- There are characteristics that two or more types share. However, there are always differences. Moreover, if we look into the "Cognitive Function Theory", we all do possess the characteristics of all types, only most of them are quite underdeveloped due to our dominant traits
- Besides, the letters are like a spectrum. And we can't really be in a full 100% of either because we'd be probably in an Asylum right now. There are Introverts and Extroverts. But we are both introverts and Extroverts since we need both time to think with ourselves and to talk and interact with other people. And it's the same with the other three.

"Cognitive Function Theory"
- It is a theory that states that each type has a certain order of the eight functions. It is also quite problematic, so I wouldn't talk much on that one.

Can I judge a person with the MBTI?
- Is judging people righteous? That's the answer. Lol seriously, It is not and must be not used in job employment. You can't say all people from a type are this and they are all that and that I must not be friends with someone because you don't like his type. It is fun to stereotype people with the MBTI though, but one must not really take it too far.

7 billion people, 16 types
- That's why I said that I think it's merely a mechanism of perception and judgment of an individual. You see, the MBTI does not define ALL of our characteristics. It doesn't even define how neurotic we are (The N in the Big 5) as it does not even tell what is our favorite food or genre of film.
- The characteristic of an individual are probably countless and is not enough to be described by four letters.
- You are unique, JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

Am I a psychology student?
- No-

I'll put the links of the description of each type in here:. This i found brilliant information an really quite spot on for a high school student ;0 WELL DONE :) you are an inspiration if only everyone thought this clever at your tender age. I am amazed an also delighted to see that the young are very very conscious, Of what types of people there are in the whole world , great to have it shortened down , condensed, So you can understand it , better still so i can understand it lol :), I will post more from this young head , he has no idea i admire his stance at young a young age , in my minds eye i would salute you. Every one is truly UNIQUE !! Believe in yourself , do something , go for a walk etc tend to a plant learn something new, for every door that bangs shut behind you, another 10 open that you had forgot were even there. Its great when you do reach out, without even realizing and you end up.
Meeting an old friend and every thing that surrounds this new vibration in your life. I remember when i was younger, this person helped me out no end, & will probably never know just how grateful,
I was , you were even there that day i was a duck right out of water and with a child in tow .
You seen i was struggling and you extended your hand of friendship, your kindness knew no bounds.
If it was you in the situation i found myself , would you be as lucky to find someone who was only out to be kind, and sincere, it is quite something and very rare these days , usualy nothings for nothing and if it is question , thankfully this is what you call a friend. Even though i haven`t seen in 25 odd years i am still the topic of discussions. Brilliant, to have gave someone a very happy memory to share with loads of others of true kindness. Thankyou,. I know i would have thanked you. & as well from my child, You restored alot of my faith and gave me strength you will not know of, i was stuck on a hill , you had a camper van for food etc & shelter from the weather!! , My child , thankfully you have your own so knew my panic, This was before mobile phones , oh how did i learn some harsh , lessons that day , Things happened were my husband could not get to us, someone was supposed to bring us home but just disappeared, with our other child, sleeping in the back of that car!! You had no idea, when you got home you went staight to bed, my husband asking you questions but you were too tired too answer, then a couple of hours later our oldest son 4 at the time, comes to the front door his dad was expecting his daughter an the mother of his children but no we were not to be seen and worse.
The child left in the back of the car sleeping , could have been uplifted, by the traffic wardens . So his da was going mental, with worry. as to were our were abouts were , thankfully we were safe thanks to a true knight in a white van :) We got home safe an we had had food , i never had any money as things turned out how they were not supposed too , it all ended good thankfully, good things happen to good people. That is just 1 time some1 helped me, i have loads of story`s of helping others, & ofcourse helping me back , no lessons not worth learning . Might feel hard and cruel at the time , it makes you stronger , you know different don`t listen esp if you know there is a difference and you feel right , then stick to what you believe you will look and feel stronger for it. You might feel rejected for your belief, some people will mock it but that is because they truly don`t understand and probably never will :) Worse still they don`t wont to better , they want to stay in that wee bubble, I loved my bubbles it was great but you realy have to break free :) LOve Light & Peace :)
