Greetings
Hi there. Daniel. Midwest USA. 37 and just starting to grow up
Lately I've been getting more confused by my MBTI test results, they change regularly as I'm borderline in N/S and T/F depending on the day. recently turned on to Enneagram, been diving deep with that and found some great resources in these forums to help differentiate 4w5 from 5w4.
Hoping to meet folks here to help me explore deeper.
Hi, bonjour, guten tag! Hope you enjoy the forum and find it informative!
The great Zen master Zhuang Zhou dreamt that he was a butterfly. When he awoke, he asked himself, "Am I a man who just dreamt about being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly who now dreams about being a man?"
Welcome, @DanielTP - Welcome to the Socionics forums!
Forgive my lack of originality hahah, but I always try to post a constructive introduction to help people get started here. So here's Your welcoming Lynx care package:
I'll presume You're relatively new to the many models of Socionics theory. I won't use the confines of an introductory post response to layout the basics of the theory--as the website itself is filled to the brim with excellent articles and threads detailing the ins and outs of the system--but if You're looking for help in determining Your own typing, I'd recommend a couple tests for You, lad.
First, a quicker option. Be sure to leave it set to the "Extended Socionics Test" , and pay mind to and be as precise as You can with the sliders. I have studied this test a good deal, and even small differences are reflected in the results. The test is broken into three parts, each dynamically changing contingent upon Your answers, to pinpoint Your valued IEs ('Information Elements', or "Cognitive Functions" as they are known elsewhere). No test is perfect, but it can point many in the right direction at the least.
Alternatively, this is the more thorough option. This is the SOLTI-160, a Russian Socionics test translated into English. It has an enormous 160 questions, with 5 options for each. This may seem excessive, but the larger number of variables (160 x 5) will ensure the maximal depth of Your results. Feel free to share either of Your results here if You wish.
In any case, we're happy to take Your questions. The "Articles" sections can keep You busy for weeks, and there's a thread for just about everything if You use the "Advanced Search" near the top right of Your screen.
Take care, Daniel, and don't be a stranger!
