Prince Muishkin does indeed come across as a good example of an INFj.
That's hard to say. I could see it going either way. I identified somewhat with the Underground Man, but more so with Muishkin. I'd figured that being underground had maladapted him, but hmm? I could see how he could get where he was, but it all seemed extreme to me (like if I had made all sorts of decisions differently, yet the decisions faced were all the same). Maybe maybe maybe, eh?
