Anyway

I’ve worked at com­pan­ies that did Myers-Brigg­s/Keir­sey tem­pera­ment test­ing on people, and just for fun decided to try out anoth­er couple of tests over the last couple of months, most recently at mypersonality.info. It seems my per­son­al­ity type wanders, from INTJ to INTP and over to ISTJ. Either that, or I look at myself dif­fer­ently on dif­fer­ent days, or respond unex­pec­tedly to nuances in ques­tions. At least two of the four axes are reas­on­ably stable, even if the oth­er two aren’t. For­tu­nately nobody I know takes this stuff too ser­i­ously; as the sites say, these are all tend­en­cies rather than absolutes.

Anoth­er inter­est­ing point: all three of those per­son­al­ity types are said to be more pre­val­ent in males than females. And prob­ably more pre­val­ent in the career path I’ve chosen as well.
