This is unbelievable, so you think that a couple of punks in suburbia had the audacity, by themselves, to categorize the population ofthe world into 16 types (and 2 sexes) , and by a stroke of good fortune they had hit upon the most popular personality categorization of their time, but...but...but: they had never heard of MBTI?Originally Posted by Expat
WHich one is more likely in your opinion Expat?
If today I tell you what your password for this account is, is it likely that I guessed it by or that somehow I found it somewhere?
Well I am back. How's everyone? Don't have as much time now, but glad to see some of the old gang are still here.
yes, i might.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
irrelevant since this test is not directly related to MBTI; it measures an entirely different aspect of personality.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
I took the test again and got the manchild ... hmmm. I've gotten the slow-dancer and the billy-goat one before too.
I will agree with that, but it doesn't make it irrelevant, in fact it multiplies its' importance.Originally Posted by niffweed17

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE TEST
ok sorry. i see the name is
The OkCupid Dating Persona Test
that is on the bottom of Dio's results.
what i mean is that your comment that the test was based on MBTI because it couldnt have happened otherwise is irrelevant. not that the test itself is irrelevant.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
Why is that irrelevant? I didn't say it Could NOT ever, I said, it's unlikely i.e. low probability.Originally Posted by niffweed17
the test is not irrelevant, thats' why I opened this thread.not that the test itself is irrelevant.
Anyways, the core of the matter is whether it makes sense to compare the 16 types in this website with the 16 types in OK Cupid. I say yes.
Do you agree or disagreee?
Notice that this website is about 16 types in general, not only the Jung dichotomies.
Well I am back. How's everyone? Don't have as much time now, but glad to see some of the old gang are still here.
i disagree because i don't see the types as measuring the same factors, and thus they are not necessarily the same. if you actually did go ahead to measure them, you would find some general trends, but no clear correlations.
So what is a type in your opinion? What does it mean that you are INTP and not ESFJ?Originally Posted by niffweed17
Well I am back. How's everyone? Don't have as much time now, but glad to see some of the old gang are still here.
a type is a method of classification of personality. socionics uses a very different method than this love test and therefore the two methodologies should not be expected to correlate.
and i'm sick of this discussion.
I told you:Originally Posted by niffweed17
If type is a method, you are out to lunch. That means that method determines results, and I don't agree with that.Originally Posted by Dioklecian

Given the duality mind/matter, that would indeed be correct at the moment of me typing this thought.Originally Posted by niffweed17

But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
Yeah, that strereotyping of Ti is bullshit at its greatest level.
"To become is just like falling asleep. You never know exactly when it happens, the transition, the magic, and you think, if you could only recall that exact moment of crossing the line then you would understand everything; you would see it all"
"Angels dancing on the head of a pin dissolve into nothingness at the bedside of a dying child."
1) Dio's wrong, since the last letter has to do with experience, not personality, so at best, they have 8 types.
2) Aww... how cute, our Herzy went from Random Brutal Sex Dreamer, to Random Brutal Sex Master since the last time she took this test. She's growing up I guess.![]()
3) If Dio's comments are not related to Ti, then are they just not type related at all?
I am sorry but this discussion has not generated any new ideas. I could be wrong I could be right who cares. I think that they have 16 type descriptions based on the 4 traits. Thats good enough for me, if you have higher standarts, fine. I am happy.Originally Posted by Rocky
Can you suggest how these descriptions relate to socionics types?
Well I am back. How's everyone? Don't have as much time now, but glad to see some of the old gang are still here.
"If Dio's comments are not related to Ti, then are they just not type related at all?"
Uh, no? Think about it this way: Expat thinks that it is OBVIOUSLY true that empirically derived concepts trump the value of apriori concepts.
"To become is just like falling asleep. You never know exactly when it happens, the transition, the magic, and you think, if you could only recall that exact moment of crossing the line then you would understand everything; you would see it all"
"Angels dancing on the head of a pin dissolve into nothingness at the bedside of a dying child."
Yay, each of my three points were individually quoted by three different people...
No, I can't- I don't think there is one. Just look at people results. You might get both S and N types test as brutal, while other Ss and Ns are both in careful... so it just doesn't line up. Besides, like I said the last of the four does not have to do with personality.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
I don't think he was saying that... I just think he pointed out that working from an assumption, like tankboy did, is how Ti-types operate.Originally Posted by MysticSonic

You mean, more 14 year olds have sex than 15 year olds?
Shocking.
Then what does Te do? Assumptions are required for evaluations of ANY kind.

I could be wrong but I though that they have an average, for instance "14-16 years old: 3 partners", so if you have more partners (say 4) you are experienced. If the average in question changes to say "5", then with the same number "4" you would become inexperienced.Originally Posted by Rocky

*gives blank stare*Originally Posted by MysticSonic
I have no idea. I wouldn't know how to define the differences. They just seem to be. They can be observed. That's really all I could say at this point.
@Herzy, you're right, I forgot, the lowest age you can put is 18 anyway...
"I have no idea. I wouldn't know how to define the differences. They just seem to be. The can be observed. Hat's really all I could say at this point. "
There ARE differences(I think), but working from assumptions is not one of them.

I think they use the age for sure, because you can't compare a 40 year old with a 20 year old, their behaviour is quite different.Originally Posted by Herzy

Diokecian is correct because age is a definite factor in terms of experience. We could only speculate the design of the test, but it does make sense because then anybody over 40 will be labelled a master automatically. IMOOriginally Posted by Dioklecian

no, they take age into consideration and go by the averages for that age
So that means me and Dioklecian are right? What you we were stating is identical to our statements.Originally Posted by Joy

um, but what about say a 40yo with only 4 sexual experiences
vs a 20yo with 30 sexual experiences?
IEE 649 sx/sp cp
Having sex 4 times is the same as having sex 30 times, so I think the question is irrelevant.Originally Posted by anndelise
uh....ok, if you say so.Originally Posted by rmcnew
i would think that the average makes it NOT the "same", but... *shrugs*

Another problem with trying to use that as a comparison is that it does not take into account the small factors in each of their individuals lives. For example, the 40 year old may have been married briefly, and the 20 year old just payed for the sex, etc.Originally Posted by anndelise
