Um, does this make sense to you guys? o_O Why are the INTPs towards the bottom when I would say we're fairly interested in it? I could be misinterpreting...

It should be noted that most people interested in personality type tend to be NFs, while the least common are SPs. Thus, this is pretty much a survey of people who are interested in type, hence the discrepency between the general population statistics. Also, I have rounded out the decimals into whole numbers.

Total Tests Taken = 4,586,300
SJ Guardian - 43%
NF Idealist - 30%
NT Rational - 14%
SP Artisan - 12%

ESFJ - 12%
ESTJ - 10%
ISTJ - 10%
ISFJ - 10%
ENFP - 8%
ENFJ - 8%
INFJ - 8%
INFP - 7%
INTJ - 6%
ESFP - 5%
ENTJ - 3%
INTP - 3%
ISFP - 3%
ESTP - 3%
ISTP - 2%

I think its basing it on how many intps have taken it which is 3%. Not sure! Weird since INTP's are one of the biggest groups on the internet.

[Liontiger]

Yeah, that's what I thought was weird too. Maybe I just get so used to seeing them all over the internet that I think they're omnipresent XD

[Kevinaswell]

This list seems wildly incorrect to me.

[vanWinchester]

Ah but well, look at that rate there:

Total Tests Taken = 4,586,300
SJ Guardian - 43%
NF Idealist - 30%
NT Rational - 14%
SP Artisan - 12%

Only 14% of the takers were even NTs. Probably they had those tests hidden on some fluffy-buffy-bunny-page or something, so us NTs didn't even bother to ever check it.

Seriously, they should have invited 25% of each group. Would have been way more accurate. =3

[thewindlistens]

I always liked these more, they seem far more accurate to me.

I could give a number of potential reasons I suspect the discrepancy occurred, but I'd still be forced to admit the results appear skewed differently than I would've imagined. Someone should conduct a survey into what attracted those SJs to researching MBTI.

[Perseus]

Questors NP are 20%
Crazies SF are 30%

so if you expect the world to be rational ?

Not even the poltiicans are rational!

Managers NJ 29%
Projectors TP 10%


ENTP 2%

[Precious Stone]

Maybe there are just less NT's in the world. Maybe INTP are online more is because they like systems and technology.

I have more theories. But they are just theories...

[Trope]

Ns, in general, comprise only about a third of the population. A great portion of NTs disregard MBTI and it's ilk as being little more than new age astrology, or question it's inherent validity based on a poorly written test and quickly decide they have better things to concern themselves with.

It would seem that there aren't many NTs beyond a certain age who develop an interest in typology, whereas SJs do so more frequently. . . often around the point of midlife crisis or as their Ne comes a bit more into its own.
