Would you like to learn a little more about yourself and your fellow posters on Free Republic? If so, you might enjoy this Freeper Research Project.
It began on another thread where people were testing themselves for “nerdiness”. Great fun was had by all.
Along the way, Freeper patton posted a link to the Jung personality test. What an adventure! I took the test for the first time and found out I am an INFJ (I=44, N=75, F=25, J=25).
Because we were sharing the results of our tests on that thread, I was pleasantly surprised to discover three other Freepers with the same personality type. And, naturally, being curious – some of us went to yet another link to find out what the code means and what famous people are INFJs:
The strange part is that INFJ’s are the smallest in the general population, but among those posting on the thread, INFJs were in the majority. Does that mean that INFJ’s are drawn to Free Republic or to those kinds of tests, or are more willing to discuss such things?
At any rate, it is a delightful musing about this forum, the posters we are drawn to (or against): does the Jung personality test have anything useful to say to us?
If you are interested or perhaps would just like to have some fun, take the test and check out the results. And if you’re willing, post your results here on this thread so that we can all “compare notes”.
The results so far:
INFJ: Indy Pendance, Knitting a Conundrum, Grey-whiskers, Alamo-Girl INTJ: John O (67,62,25,67), hosepipe (11,50,19,56), Cyclopean Squid (44,100,62,56) INTP: marron ENFJ: .30Carbine (1,50,75,22) , phantomworker (39,57,40,12)

INFJ for me
Rare? Nearly extinct! :)
Well, it appears that libertarians are completely different, not subscribing to any one type. :-)
Ping!
In case anyone hasn't come across this thread yet; perhaps homeschoolers match a particular type.
I'm an ENFJ too, the Teacher.
I usually test as an ENTP, the Visionary.
Guess it depends on my energy level whether I should merely envision the perfect world, or round up a group of people to make it happen.
"Finish my beer? Save the world?"
What is you type, Diva?

I knew you were special....
That is a lot more INFJs than they claim are running around in the general population. Now you can do a thesis.
ESFJ
Extroverted - 22
Sensing - 12
Feeling - 50
Judging - 22
Yep, the rest of us seem to be introverts... lol. But maybe that's typical for an internet forum. ;-)
Must be the same road Lucy and Desi took in the movie 'The Long, Long Trailer'. Remember she collected rocks and Desi told her to get rid of any extra weight before they went over the Rockies. But, of course, she kept the rocks. Good luck!!! Indeed!
Wow, I haven't thought of that movie in a long time. That was a fun one!! :)
Of course, the ADD thing plays a big part too - after a couple of minutes, we're both off chasing something shiny - and neither one of us is terribly deep, so inevitably one of us makes a joke and we crack up, and life goes on.
Anyway, it works for us....
A lot of introverts!
Ping!
Now I need to find out what all this means. It'll be interesting to see the final results broken down by category.
Yay!! I knew we shared more than good looks!! ;-)
