[SIZE=+1][SIZE=+2]INTP[/SIZE][/SIZE]IntrovertedIntuitiveThinkingPerceiving [SIZE=+0]Strength of the preferences %[/SIZE] 6725156Rational Portrait of the Architect (INTP)Architects need not be thought of as only interested in drawing blueprints for buildings or roads or bridges. They are the master designers of all kinds of theoretical systems, including school curricula, corporate strategies, and new technologies. For Architects, the world exists primarily to be analyzed, understood, explained - and re-designed. External reality in itself is unimportant, little more than raw material to be organized into structural models. What is important for Architects is that they grasp fundamental principles and natural laws, and that their designs are elegant, that is, efficient and coherent.
Architects are rare - maybe one percent of the population - and show the greatest precision in thought and speech of all the types. They tend to see distinctions and inconsistencies instantaneously, and can detect contradictions no matter when or where they were made. It is difficult for an Architect to listen to nonsense, even in a casual conversation, without pointing out the speaker's error. And in any serious discussion or debate Architects are devastating, their skill in framing arguments giving them an enormous advantage. Architects regard all discussions as a search for understanding, and believe their function is to eliminate inconsistencies, which can make communication with them an uncomfortable experience for many.
Ruthless pragmatists about ideas, and insatiably curious, Architects are driven to find the most efficient means to their ends, and they will learn in any manner and degree they can. They will listen to amateurs if their ideas are useful, and will ignore the experts if theirs are not. Authority derived from office, credential, or celebrity does not impress them. Architects are interested only in what make sense, and thus only statements that are consistent and coherent carry any weight with them.
Architects often seem difficult to know. They are inclined to be shy except with close friends, and their reserve is difficult to penetrate. Able to concentrate better than any other type, they prefer to work quietly at their computers or drafting tables, and often alone. Architects also become obsessed with analysis, and this can seem to shut others out. Once caught up in a thought process, Architects close off and persevere until they comprehend the issue in all its complexity. Architects prize intelligence, and with their grand desire to grasp the structure of the universe, they can seem arrogant and may show impatience with others who have less ability, or who are less driven.

Just out of curiousity what did you test out as? I'd say that the "average" person is a SJ or SP and you tested out as Stewie Griffin...

INFJ here. Took the test 20+ times. It always comes out the same. I am glad there are some other INFJ's on here too.
On a side note, I find myself more disillusioned with the integrity of the human race as I grow older.
INFJ's are supposedly hard and cold on the outside, and warm and fuzzy inside. Thats me. The older I get, the harder it is to "crack my shell".

No personality found.
That's me sorted.
That's me sorted.
I always get INFJ/INFP when I take this test.
One thing you guys have to keep in mind is the Forer effect, that something-for-everyone that these abstract practices subject us to.
Everyone answers questions with relative honesty, but most people pick and choose certain answers knowing how it might affect their description of themselves they are given, effectively tailoring their results.
I think that most personality tests are crap, but the Meyers-Briggs is pretty good, as far as P.T. Barnum tests go.

I'm a pretty rare one, apparently.
Idealist Champion
this paragraph is so true it scares me
Fiercely individualistic, Champions strive toward a kind of personal authenticity, and this intention always to be themselves is usually quite attractive to others. At the same time, Champions have outstanding intuitive powers and can tell what is going on inside of others, reading hidden emotions and giving special significance to words or actions. In fact, Champions are constantly scanning the social environment, and no intriguing character or silent motive is likely to escape their attention. Far more than the other Idealists, Champions are keen and probing observers of the people around them, and are capable of intense concentration on another individual. Their attention is rarely passive or casual. On the contrary, Champions tend to be extra sensitive and alert, always ready for emergencies, always on the lookout for what's possibl
