Is there a correlation between the Big Five and Socionic type?

Factor I : Extraversion (AKA Surgency)

This trait reflects preference for, and behavior in, social situations. People high in extraversion are energetic and seek out the company of others. Low scorers (introverts) tend to be more quiet and reserved. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (32) is about average.

Factor II : Agreeableness (AKA Friendliness)

This trait reflects how we tend to interact with others. People high in agreeableness tend to be trusting, friendly and cooperative. Low scorers tend to be more aggressive and less cooperative. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (27) is about average.

Factor III : Conscientiousness (AKA Will or Dependability)

This trait reflects how organized and persistent we are in pursuing our goals. High scorers are methodical, well organized and dutiful. Low scorers are less careful, less focussed and more likely to be distracted from tasks. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (28) is relatively low.

Factor IV : Neuroticism

This trait reflects the tendency to experience negative thoughts and feelings. High scorers are prone to insecurity and emotional distress. Low scorers tend to be more relaxed, less emotional and less prone to distress. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (19) is about average.

Factor V : Openness (AKA Culture or Intellect)

This trait reflects 'open-mindedness' and interest in culture. High scorers tend to be imaginative, creative, and to seek out cultural and educational experiences. Low scorers are more down-to-earth, less interested in art and more practical in nature. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (32) is relatively high.

Trevor the ISTp.

Why ISTp > ISFp?

[FDG]

Extraversion: 30 (about average)
Agreeableness: 19 (relatively low)
Conscientiousness: 29 (relatively low)
Neuroticism: 12 (relatively low)
Openness: 31 (relatively high)

So, running with April's suggested (2nd-hand) correlation, that makes me ENTp. FML.

You're certainly underestimating your E level. Maybe try to answer right after a social event?

Edit: it appears this test has a weird scale. So nevermind.

My own results:

Factor I : Extraversion (AKA Surgency)


This trait reflects preference for, and behavior in, social situations. People high in extraversion are energetic and seek out the company of others. Low scorers (introverts) tend to be more quiet and reserved. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (43) is relatively high.
Factor II : Agreeableness (AKA Friendliness)


This trait reflects how we tend to interact with others. People high in agreeableness tend to be trusting, friendly and cooperative. Low scorers tend to be more aggressive and less cooperative. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (22) is relatively low.
Factor III : Conscientiousness (AKA Will or Dependability)


This trait reflects how organized and persistent we are in pursuing our goals. High scorers are methodical, well organized and dutiful. Low scorers are less careful, less focussed and more likely to be distracted from tasks. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (40) is relatively high.
Factor IV : Neuroticism


This trait reflects the tendency to experience negative thoughts and feelings. High scorers are prone to insecurity and emotional distress. Low scorers tend to be more relaxed, less emotional and less prone to distress. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (9) is relatively low.
Factor V : Openness (AKA Culture or Intellect)


This trait reflects 'open-mindedness' and interest in culture. High scorers tend to be imaginative, creative, and to seek out cultural and educational experiences. Low scorers are more down-to-earth, less interested in art and more practical in nature. Compared to other people who have taken this test, your score on this dimension (31) is relatively high.



Btw, I strongly disagree with the correlation between coscentiousness and J-P. My own levels of this parameter can vary a lot, dependingly on how much stuff I have to do.

[silke]

Not for Socionics but for MBTI yes, such correlations have been made: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-B...cator#Big_Five

N correlates to higher Openness.
F correlates to higher Agreeableness.
Being dynamic type correlates to higher Conscientiousness.
Extraversion score is self-explanatory.
Neuroticism doesn't correlate well with anything (has very small positive correlations with being static and introvert, IJ)

Afaik enneagram type and wing have considerable sway over your score. There is a pdf file in this article http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/ar...lease_full.asp that goes over it. For example if you're some type that is expected to score high on, say, Agreeableness, but your enneagram type is one that correlates to low score on this parameter then your overall score is likely to be quite lowered. Overall I think enneagram has more of an effect than jungian functions.

[ClownsandEntropy]

I would expect there to be some correlation between all personality types, depending on what they measure. MBTI seems more superficial than either Socionics or Big Five, but there may be some correlation. Enneagram seems more precise about describing actual people but not as detailed in its descriptions, so I think I agree with siuntal that Big Five is more affected by Enneagram than MBTI, and I also feel that Socionics ought to have a higher correlation with Big Five than MBTI. How much Ennegram affects it, I'm not sure.

Personally, I scored:
Extroversion: 15 (Low)
Agreeableness: 25 (Average)
Conscientiousness: 32 (Average)
Neuroticism: 29 (High)
Openness: 28 (Average)

Re: the test, what are these questions about art supposed to be testing for?

[FDG]

Being dynamic type correlates to higher Conscientiousness.

How so? (the others make perfect sense btw)

Yay, Im an Extrovert. News Flash. I actually find this test offensive. I had to answer highly unlikely to both the liberal and conservative question, not only because I do not vote, but because that is what is true if I did vote. Its a set of questions laced with bias. In fact, I find this entire test to be biased.

[Absurd]

In fact, I find this entire test to be biased.

I'm sure glad you didn't die after taking it.

[Creepy-pokeball]

I'm sure glad you didn't die after taking it.

I'm sure glad that you didnt die after reading my post?

[ClownsandEntropy]

Being dynamic type correlates to higher Conscientiousness.

How so? (the others make perfect sense btw)

The link implies that rationality is more shaped by conscientiousness, so I assume being a J in MBTI is correlated with higher conscientiousness.
