Cone, your way of speaking has become more clear. I guess it comes because you have discovered your .
This test is a test of Blochin's translated into English. It's a good idea, but it's a copy, so you may find yourself in some sort of trouble when those angry Slavic Russians will discover that. Ah, Russkije Zenziny! You don't want to know what pictures they put up in Estonian internet. But Liisa is the most beautiful name in Estonia.
And I come out as INFp which I am not. I actually think that I am INTj with empathisation to it's .
lol! yes. When I saw it, I laughed.Originally Posted by Der Fuehrer
Erkki tested INTj on this test, because it was the most difficult to choose between and . It seems a bit absurd, taking into consideration that the Fe description featured traits like "bright emotionalism". He said he had a problem with "high working capacity". He thinks and daydreams and procrastinates and then does an awful lot of work in one burst. He gets things done fast and effectively, but he doesn't see himself as the "person who is effective", because he sees himself as a procrastinating person.
Maybe the description should also have a phrase, "may have very productive bursts in stead of steady productive work", or something along those lines. (I can't see IXTps saying that they are very productive).
PS! The phrase should probably be improved, because everyone can agree with it this way.

Exactly. The Si description plays up aesthetics so much, as if anyone who has an aesthetic sense must have Si. Presumably a lot of INFps are into arts, poetry, literature....They'd probably identify with this description of Si too.Cone: I come out INTj on this test too, Jonathan, because I find the distinction between Ni and Si the most difficult to answer. Everything else is obvious: my Ti and Te are much better than my Fi and Fe, and my Ne is better than my Se (to a lesser extent). It is much harder to conceptualize Ni and Si in terms of my own behavior.
Are you having the exact same problem I'm having?
I think a lot of the thinking in Socionics really overplays Si as aesthetic sense. In my view, a more rational definition for Si would stress the concreteness, realism, and practicality more....maybe a tendency to perceive, using the senses, one definitive sense of reality, to be present in one's surroundings, to have fine motor skill, to be aware of ones body and physical needs....or something like that. Aesthetic sense maybe is part of it, but I don't think Si has a corner on aesthetic sense. Or maybe I have a lot of Si....
I agree with your description of Si, but I think aesthetic sense also plays a part here. I think the phrase "perfect functioning of all senses" is also a bit weird. My senses work perfectly - My eyesight is very good, I hear things most people can't hear, etc. All senses work perfectly on their own. But still I have bad motor skills, bad awareness of my body and my physical needs, (and realism in some cases). But I also have a problem with not knowing what is considered aesthetic.Originally Posted by Jonathan
I also think Si descriptions should contain "most focused on the surrounding in stead of his/her own thoughts", because is kinda the opposite of . -people are much more likely to daydream or to be too deeply in their own thoughts, and being focused on the surroundings is the opposite of daydreaming.

Kristiina, maybe Erkki scored INTj because he is an INTj. Perhaps he's just not as good as you are at manipulating tests (and I'm not accusing you of doing it on purpose). Could you have someone who knows you really well take it for you, someone who knows nothing of socioiocs? A parent or sibling or old friend?
Maybe only Anneli, but she know a little bit about it. It would have to be someone who know me very well also after I moved out of my parents home, because I have changed so much.Originally Posted by Joy
No, I don't think Erkki is INTj, because there is nothing to indicate INTj. As far as I can tell (and from the function descriptions I've made him read), he has Ni and Te, not Ti and Ne. His Ne seems stronger than mine, but that makes sense, even if I am intuitive subtype ENTj. INTj functions from Si hidden agenda to Fe dual seeking make no sense when I try to find signs of them in Erkki.

Joy, imagine a quiet introverted INTp, who's hidden agenda is Fi. He reads a description of an active, productive worker, who is fast and logical... He prefers a slow-paced life in general (reading books, playing computer games, playing D&D, etc). He's a geek and proud of it, but he also wants loving feelings from others.
Next he reads the description of someone who is good at communicating with others... He might not agree with it 100% (the parts about being a jovial merry person with bright emotionalism), but he doesn't completely disagree with it. I suspect the Fi-hidden agenda has something to do with it. (Differently from us, it doesn't make him think, "it's the description of and I don't have ! It's my PoLR!").
He chose but saw this as the most difficult choice.
Joy, will you shut up now?

I've had the same problem as Erkki. I can't see myself as a productive person (even though I've been told so), at all, and reading "rationalization, sequence, planning" makes me think about a robot, which I don't want to be
Obsequium amicos, veritas odium parit
my two cents on this matter:
i don't know if erkki is INTp or INTj or any other type. the only people who can make that judgment are kristina and erkki. however, i will say that this test should not be an indication of erkki's type. the fundamental problem with this test, IMO, is that all of the descriptions describe dominant functions. this means a person is likely to identify with their dominant function, and might possibly identify with their creative function in order to avoid identifying with their polr.
another problem is that the descriptions of the functions may vary for each type. what is Te for an ESTj might be very different than Te for an INTp, not necessarily in nature, but in the manner in which it is used. thus, these descriptions should not be considered perfect.
the bottom line is that this test, like any test (and imo this not being a particularly accurate test) should not be taken as a definitive indication of type.
That is true, but I think that the problem is that people are looking at those descriptions too much in an item-by-item way -- the best way to do it is to get a "feel" for the descriptions. So, even an INTp who doesn't see himself as "highly productive" should have identified more with the than description, and very easily.
Perhaps the functions could be re-written to be less "extreme", but perhaps that will make the choices even more difficult.

Vague and MaizeMedley both got INFj. They are both INFps.
I am already working on improving the current test. Stay tuned.
I suggest you include the "strong adherence to my own ethical principles" aspect in the description -- that should solve it.

But when I compare my Fi and my morals to other things, I had to admit that do have my personal values and they don't depend on the world-wide "normal" values.
Shortly, I don't think this phrase will change much.

I think the test is good. I came out as ISFJ. I actually did not even read through all the questions. I knew that I am better in sensing that intuition in both questions of sensing and intuition I picked up sensing wqithout being bothers of introverted or extraverted. The difficulty was not the first question either because i know my strong point : people instead of logic and because it is in a rational - conscious blocks of Ego and Superego - it is no probelm. Difficulty was question B about Te and Fe because bothe fundions are in my subconsious or undeveloped to a great degree. so this is where I thought a bit longer: at the end of the day I am an introvert and you ask me about extraverted functions. This is all very much supporting Butterfly model: I still have chosen the one which is in the Life block - the strongest block, where conscious and subconscious functions are better developed compared to Afterlife block which is generally weaker. That means Ego and Id blocks should be stronger than Superego and Superid blocks for each types. Is it right for you or not?

Very good work Hugo.
I keep trying to find the "this question" box to select.Which question above was the most difficult to answer?
Maybe it's because I'm a weird person, or maybe it's because I'm relatively new to Socionics, but I found myself undecided between the two available options on more than one occasion. I took it several times and got mainly ESTp, ENTp, and ENTj (I might've gotten other results once or twice, but if I did, I don't remember what they were).
