Just wondering if anyone buys into it, or whether it should be taken seriously or not. I personally feel like I related to the description I got (infp) but then again I usually am easily convinced of things

    The biggest issue with the MBTI tests is that the categories aren't consistent with what they're supposed to mean. It's supposed to be a test of how you make decisions and interact with the world and process information. In reality, it just becomes crude stereotypes like "extravert = loud and social, introvert = loner" and "intuitive means smart and sensor means dumb jock" and "thinking = robot, feeling = cry baby or histrionic". If you're seriously into this shit, look for a Jungian function test. I like this one

    TBF, probably 90% of the people on this website are ENFP/INFP, so your result is probably accurate.

      nah the biggest issue is that a couple laypeople pulled it out of their ass and it has no basis in hard data or evidence of any sort.
