Which of the 16 Are You?

I really liked the way the personality types were explained.
Made a lot of sense as to why I do things a certain way. -

If everyone is in a "only 3% of the population" type, what type makes up the bulk of everyone else out there?

Here you go...
How Frequent is my Myers Briggs Type?

One thing that you will notice right away is that I is more common than E in the general population (by a tiny amount) but you will likely find E more common in service industry jobs like IT and definitely more common in any highly social community, like MangoLassi. So the group here is a bit self-selecting as a subset of an already slightly limiting pool. So not likely to reflect the general population.

Interesting...

@scottalanmiller , I don't know...we've got a good balance of I and E here in ML...

I'm in a 6-8%, as is AJ. So we are pretty much average as there are sixteen types. Average meaning median, in this case.

Well, considering there are 16 types, if it was a perfect split, there would be 6.0625% of people in each group, so 8% is actually slightly above average, although I can see why ours is one of the more common groups @scottalanmiller .

Is that you?
Yeah, the joke is that INTJ's are full of themselves, and therefore think theirs is the best. I'm INTJ and my wife is ESFP, which is opposite on every quadrant. We read up on the matching of that pairing in marriage and it said "this pairing is so rare as to be of only academic interest"

I have a hard time seeing you as an introvert...You're just so personable...

"I" is a surprise to me. "J" makes total sense though.
For a CM, it makes sense.

Yeah, I think I'm a good example of why introversion and social anxiety are separate issues. I've learned how to socialize well, and I'm good around people I know, but being around big crowds drains me. Part of what helped me learn how to socialize well was doing phone support for QuickBooks. A year of being on the phone 8 hours a day with strangers teaches you how to make small talk very well. The reason many introverts aren't good at socializing is because they never get any practice at it. The traditional definition of introversion vs extroversion is that introverts gain energy by being alone and extroverts gain energy by being around people.

Also Jaime and Kelly are good examples of the I/E axis being separate from the shy/talkative axis. Jaime is a shy extrovert who hates being alone. Kelly is an outgoing introvert who needs her alone time.

E vs I is about how you get energy, has no relationship to being shy, antisocial or personable. It's not the same introvert and extrovert that you are used to. In MB terms, an introvert gets their energy from being alone. An extrovert gets their energy from people. Both operate in the other space.
