    You are highly qualified, have numerous letters after your name, or have done countless training courses. You may have found it hard to do anything with these courses, despite your good intentions when you signed up for them, because this would involve “putting yourself out there” – and you don’t feel ready to do that. It is classic of a gifted introvert that he/she never feels “ready” and needs more training/skills before they will be.
    I wasn't confident enough in my training/skills set to click yes for this one.

    "gifted introvert"

    what about a "gifted extrovert"? It's implying that just because you're introverted, you are automatically smarter and better at things than an extrovert.

    I wasn't even paying attention to the gifted part so much. These are mostly traits of the popular use of the word introvert. I really wanted to see how it lines up to socionics types because honestly I see introverted and extroverted people in all the types. At first I was trying to see connections to online behavior. Like are introverts more likely to have their status hidden on forums in general. My most introverted friends irl will log into sites but keep themselves hidden. I do that because I get overwhelmed when people can see me online and sometimes I am not ready to respond to them or whatever. I like to take my time and if my status is showing to everyone I feel like I have to respond. hahah

    Other things I notice and it might be biased but this forum seems to have more socionics introverts posting than socionics extroverts but that could be because the internet is a haven for introverts. Personally I swing back and forth in being outgoing and reserved. I am more likely to approach someone who is quieter than me in social situations...not that I am quiet with my friends. I prefer to observe people before putting myself out there when possible. After any social interaction I need to be alone to recharge because I feel exhausted keeping up with the extroverts.

    . The trait of extraversion–introversion is a central dimension of human personality theories. The terms introversion andextraversion were first popularized by Carl Jung,[1] although both the popular understanding and psychological age differ from his original intent. Extraversion tends to be manifested in outgoing, talkative, energetic behavior, whereas introversion is manifested in more reserved and solitary behavior.[2] Virtually all comprehensive models of personality include these concepts in various forms. Examples include the Big Five model, Jung's analytical psychology, Hans Eysenck's three-factor model, Raymond Cattell's 16 personality factors, the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, and the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator.Extroversion and introversion are typically viewed as a single continuum. Thus, to be high on one it is necessary to be low on the other. Carl Jung and the authors of the Myers–Briggs provide a different perspective and suggest that everyone has both an extraverted side and an introverted side, with one being more dominant than the other. Rather than focusing on interpersonal behavior, however, Jung defined introversion as an "attitude-type characterised by orientation in life through subjective psychic contents" (focus on one's inner psychic activity); and extraversion as "an attitude type characterised by concentration of interest on the external object" (the outside world).[3]
    In any case, people fluctuate in their behavior all the time, and even extreme introverts and extroverts do not always act according to their type.

    I had an extrovert here take it to see how they would answer. In the context the questions are asked they could not check many boxes although they identified with part of a question. If they did not agree with the whole question they left it blank. They got three as well.

    Example:

    You are a keen observer. You notice small details that other people generally don’t see like facial expressions, small movements. You have the capacity to read people intuitively or to read energy. Sherlock Holmes was an introvert with an uncanny ability to observe the minutest detail to reveal the “truth”.

    He is a keen observer but he laughed at reading people's energy intuitively and left it unchecked.

    Heh most tests seem to have that effect. The problem may be that people do not get the context of the questions asked or scan them quickly and check yes when it does not actually fit them. I found a known extroverted guinea pig to take it ,and with me to explain it to them, they couldn't check but three. Another example...explains the forer effect too.

    You think first before talking. You rarely blurt your thoughts out without editing them. You find it hard to think quickly on your feet. (This is the thing that distinguishes the introvert most from the extrovert who can think on their feet and so can respond more quickly in situations. However extraverts often speak before thinking their ideas through properly.)
    By watching my friends take quizzes I have noticed they will agree to something before understanding and they sort of wing it and somehow end up making sense. That is why I like to take quizzes with people. It helps to get some feedback and clarity before I click, click, click. I have taken so many quizzes though that I have a pretty good honor system within myself and I want an accurate result so I am less likely to agree to something before knowing what I am agreeing to. Sometimes I still rush through them though if I can't be bothered to analyze what is being asked.

    Edit: I imagine some people find the term "gifted" annoying but to me it was kind of irrelevant....of course there are gifted extroverts but this test was geared to introverts.

    11. Didn't feel comfortable enough checking the two boxes that dealt with being academically strong, creative, and qualified. Still a lot of work to do before I will be comfortable checking those boxes.

    I read the questions and thought the test was generic and stupid. What does that mean?
