Enneagram RHETI sampler (http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/dis_sample_36.asp)

I found this site which I think is pretty interesting, especially if your slightly narcissistic when bored (and I really am). Mine can't seem to decide between type 2, 4, 6 and 8. Hmm, I'm very even:confused: ...
What's everyone else?

#5

I'm a 2 and a 7, basically an enthusastic helper,

Equal scores for 5, 6 and 7.
Thus a investigative, loyal enthusiast.
Yeah, sure...

Could you put the address? This computer is terrible.

Type 1

Notes on the Results
Your highest score was a tie between Type 3, Type 4, Type 5, and Type 9.

Apparently I'm tricky to catagorise.

I score highest on type eight.

Type Eight
The Challenger
The powerful, aggressive type. Eights are self-confident, strong, and assertive. Protective, resourceful, straight-talking, and decisive, but can also be ego-centric and domineering. Eights feel they must control their environment, especially people, sometimes becoming confrontational and intimidating. Eights typically have problems with their tempers and with allowing themselves to be vulnerable. At their Best: self-mastering, they use their strength to improve others' lives, becoming heroic, magnanimous, and inspiring.

Though type one comes in a close second.

Type One
The Reformer
The principled, idealistic type. Ones are conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. They are teachers, crusaders, and advocates for change: always striving to improve things, but afraid of making a mistake. Well-organized, orderly, and fastidious, they try to maintain high standards, but can slip into being critical and perfectionistic. They typically have problems with resentment and impatience. At their Best: wise, discerning, realistic, and noble. Can be morally heroic..

Not too shaby.

Type 1: Reformer
Type 6: Loyalist
Type 9: Peacemaker

all equal for me.

http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/images/type4M.gif


also, to a lesser extent, #2 the Helper (twwo notches less than Individualist) :)


Type Four
The Individualist
The introspective, romantic type. Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity. At their Best: inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences.

Type Two
The Helper
The caring, interpersonal type. Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs. At their Best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.

sounds like me :)

There are several people I'd be really curious to see their results. (Besides PM :) )
I wish they'd get their butts on here.

I'm a lot bossier and opinionated in RL. Seeing my words tempers my tendency to go off on a tangent. I type pretty slow, so I actually think before I post.

But I scored a lot on the others too except Achiever and Challenger

Wow, same as you PM :)

Wow, same as you PM :)
w00t! :fluffle:

I'm a no. 2. The helper who wants to be loved. (sigh) :headbang:

there's loads of extra info about the types on there... and most of it is scarily accurate and illuminating :eek:

Before you get too excited about your results, I feel that I have to point out that most people agree with self descriptions based upon their horoscopes, even when the descriptions are actually handed out randomly. I want to see see how much people agree with their descriptions when they are handed out randomly as opposed to actual test results.

I am type 2 and type 7..people pleasing, possesive, generous, fun loving spontaneous, and scattered. Me in a nutshell.

I want to see see how much people agree with their descriptions when they are handed out randomly as opposed to actual test results.

The random horoscopes and stuff I get pretty much never apply to me. They always say something along the lines of "You are going to fall in love this week" or "Your heart will be longing for something more on wednesday." Unless my mom (who is a priestess) and I sit down together to find out what's up for me in the upcoming month, horoscopes usually never work. The things my mother draws up more or less happen, but...*shrug*

Some of the statements are damn confusing, especially when you could tick both!! Maybe I was biased 'cause I'm feeling like a bit of a hardarse today! :p

thought this was cool, so bumpo

I scored most in 5, than 6.

I love Psychology (what I want to take a degree in and eventually have career in) and I love (read: am addicted to) personality tests. I have a pretty good understanding of myself and what I'm like. I know my strengths and weaknesses and how I react to things and deal with things. Heh, I constantly analyse myself and other people, perfect for being a psychologist :p

There's this one test based on simply choosing colours and it's really scarily accurate about your situation, well it has been for me and other people I know.

I've taken all of those, plus some Quizilla/Quiz Diva quizzes which aren't really scientific. One Quizilla in particular quiz called "What Color is Your Aura" was incredibly accurate for me.

What's everyone else?


Well, I'm very interested in Psychology as it is where my educational background lays. I'm not able to take this test however, as I'm not allowed to download software at this workstation, so I can't take the test.

I've taken many of the tests at emode.com, though any of these tests is limited in its capacity to actually predict a personality. If you really want to have some fun, get someone to give you a 16PF or a MeiersBriggs inventory sometime.

I've taken all of those, plus some Quizilla/Quiz Diva quizzes which aren't really scientific. One Quizilla in particular quiz called "What Color is Your Aura" was incredibly accurate for me.

Taken that on Tickle along with "How bright is your aura?" Got really accurate results for them both.

We don't need a psychic to tell us that you're giving off a Emerald vibe. Your bright, refreshing, grass-green aura tells us that you're a relaxed person with a laid-back attitude. Into living a healthy lifestyle — from eating right to trying yoga and aromatherapy — you're down-to-earth and always easy-going. You bring calm and peace with you wherever you go. A bit of a flower child, you're as unpretentious and open-minded as they come. Everyone is invited to your party. Chances are you have quite the green thumb, too, as well as a knack for healing people — both emotionally and physically. Sensitive and compassionate, you're as reliable as the earth and as natural as herbal tea and organic vegetables.

amy, the brightest color in your aura is Yellow

Contrary to popular myth, auras are actually multi-colored energy fields that can be divided into seven primary layers. Having Yellow as your brightest color means that the third layer of your aura is the most vibrant. You have exceptional abilities to engage in logical, concrete thinking. You tend to be particularly open-minded and enjoy exposure to new ideas, which positively impacts your attitude toward life.

I'm a #3.

heh i constantly analyse myself too, and i love taking personality tests (i've taken far too many - i'll post some links soon). apparently its part of being a Four... which you are too so i'm not suprised:p

wow that colour quiz isn't bad! :eek:

Your Desired Objective
Desires a tranquil, peaceful state of harmony offering quiet contentment and a sense of belonging
bingo!

I'm equal on type 9 and type 7.

I'm a very reflective person. It's weird seeing how I've changed over time. Luckily for the better :) Depression was utter hell but it actually helped me mature, find out about myself and gain a lot of inner strength. I'm so much happier and confident than I've ever been and for once in my whole life I like myself. To most people that sounds strange but for me it's... just, wow. An amazing feeling. When I look back to this time last year I'm surprised I'm still here. I can still remember vividly what it felt like. Not something you forget. But it's all part of who I am and right now life is great. Not perfect but I can cope with the downs. It also means I'm far more empathetic and know what to say to help people which is great.

Also means I tend to ramble :p

Tickle is great for personality tests. Pretty accurate too and has the most flattering results such as ones saying that my unique quality is being unusually inspirational :)

wow that colour quiz isn't bad! :eek:


bingo!

Ok, that's just scary. That's what I got... *shifty eyes*

But yes, it's been accurate for me every time. Weird....

If you scroll further down the page you'll see there is a short, free online test that doesn't need downloading.

Thanks :)

Okay, here are my scores:

Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Type 4 Type 5 Type 6 Type 7 Type 8 Type 9
7 6 3 3 3 1 5 4 4

As I mentioned, I've taken the "Color Quiz" before, but it wasn't at all accurate. This time I actually waited for the time to run down before I took the second part, and it was definitely more accurate:

Your Existing Situation
This represents a barrier between the compensatory colors which precede it and the remaining colors.

Me: Whatever, that's probably true.

[SIZE=1]Your Stress Sources
The existing situation is disagreeable. Feels lonely and uncertain as she has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and wants to stand out from the rank and file. This sense of isolation magnifies the need into a compelling urge, all the more upsetting to her self-sufficiency because of the restraint she normally imposes on herself. Since she wants to demonstrate the unique quality of her own character, she tries to suppress this need for others and affects an attitude of unconcerned self-reliance to conceal her fear of inadequacy, treating those who criticize her behavior with contempt. However, beneath this assumption of indifference she really longs for the approval and esteem of others.

Me: Oh, man. That is me. It even explains how I went from doing everything in my power to please everyone around me to shutting everybody out. FREAK-Y!

Your Restrained Characteristics
The situation is preventing her from establishing herself, but she feels she must make the best of things as they are.
Circumstances are restrictive and hampering, forcing her to forgo all joys and pleasures for the time being.

Me: Yeah, I guess that's pretty good!

Your Desired Objective
Longs for tenderness and for a sensitivity of feeling into which she can blend. Responsive to anything esthetic and tasteful.

Me: Okay, not really. Or maybe I'm in denial. Hmm...

Your Actual Problem
Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of her hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. She is trying to escape from this into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, protecting her from dissatisfaction and lack of appreciation.

Me: Okay, I'll go with that.

Your Actual Problem #2
Wants to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem.
Me: Mmm... maybe. *shrugs*

I'm a very reflective person. It's weird seeing how I've changed over time. Luckily for the better :) Depression was utter hell but it actually helped me mature, find out about myself and gain a lot of inner strength. I'm so much happier and confident than I've ever been and for once in my whole life I like myself. To most people that sounds strange but for me it's... just, wow. An amazing feeling.

hmm i hope to be where you are someday. i'm still going through the whole depression & self-loathing thing... its fun:)
but its also part of what being a Four is all about. the test & related info on this thread really told me more about myself than any other test to date has, so sorry if i keep going on about "being a Four":p



Ok, that's just scary. That's what I got... *shifty eyes*

we're obviously the same person http://www.ironmaiden.org/images/smilies/eyes.gif

Extraverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging
by Joe Butt
Profile: ENFJ
Revision: 3.0
Date of Revision: 23 Feb 2005


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ENFJs are the benevolent 'pedagogues' of humanity. They have tremendous charisma by which many are drawn into their nurturant tutelage and/or grand schemes. Many ENFJs have tremendous power to manipulate others with their phenomenal interpersonal skills and unique salesmanship. But it's usually not meant as manipulation -- ENFJs generally believe in their dreams, and see themselves as helpers and enablers, which they usually are.

ENFJs are global learners. They see the big picture. The ENFJs focus is expansive. Some can juggle an amazing number of responsibilities or projects simultaneously. Many ENFJs have tremendous entrepreneurial ability.

ENFJs are, by definition, Js, with whom we associate organization and decisiveness. But they don't resemble the SJs or even the NTJs in organization of the environment nor occasional recalcitrance. ENFJs are organized in the arena of interpersonal affairs. Their offices may or may not be cluttered, but their conclusions (reached through feelings) about people and motives are drawn much more quickly and are more resilient than those of their NFP counterparts.

ENFJs know and appreciate people. Like most NFs, (and Feelers in general), they are apt to neglect themselves and their own needs for the needs of others. They have thinner psychological boundaries than most, and are at risk for being hurt or even abused by less sensitive people. ENFJs often take on more of the burdens of others than they can bear.

TRADEMARK: "The first shall be last"
This refers to the open-door policy of ENFJs. One ENFJ colleague always welcomes me into his office regardless of his own circumstances. If another person comes to the door, he allows them to interrupt our conversation with their need. While discussing that need, the phone rings and he stops to answer it. Others drop in with a 'quick question.' I finally get up, go to my office and use the call waiting feature on the telephone. When he hangs up, I have his undivided attention!

Functional Analysis:

Extraverted Feeling
Extraverted Feeling rules the ENFJ's psyche. In the sway of this rational function, these folks are predisposed to closure in matters pertaining to people, and especially on behalf of their beloved. As extraverts, their contacts are wide ranging. Face-to-face relationships are intense, personable and warm, though they may be so infrequently achieved that intimate friendships are rare.

Introverted iNtuition

Like their INFJ cousins, ENFJs are blessed through introverted intuition with clarity of perception in the inner, unconscious world. Dominant Feeling prefers to find the silver lining in even the most beggarly perceptions of those in their expanding circle of friends and, of course, in themselves. In less balanced individuals, such mitigation of the unseemly eventually undermines the ENFJ's integrity and frequently their good name. In healthier individuals, deft use of this awareness of the inner needs and desires of others enables this astute type to win friends, influence people, and avoid compromising entanglements.
The dynamic nature of their intuition moves ENFJs from one project to another with the assurance that the next one will be perfect, or much more nearly so than the last. ENFJs are continually looking for newer and better solutions to benefit their extensive family, staff, or organization.

Extraverted Sensing
Sensing is extraverted. ENFJs can manage details, particularly those necessary to implement the prevailing vision. These data have, however, a magical flexible quality. Something to be bought can be had for a song; the same something is invaluable when it's time to sell. (We are not certain, but we suspect that such is the influence of the primary function.) This wavering of sensory perception is made possible by the weaker and less mature status with which the tertiary is endowed.

Introverted Thinking
Introverted Thinking is least apparent and most enigmatic in this type. In fact, it often appears only when summoned by Feeling. At times only in jest, but in earnest if need be, Thinking entertains as logical only those conclusions which support Feeling's values. Other scenarios can be shown invalid or at best significantly inferior. Such "Thinking in the service of Feeling" has the appearance of logic, but somehow it never quite adds up.

Introverted Thinking is frequently the focus of the spiritual quest of ENFJs. David's lengthiest psalm, 119, pays it homage. "Law," "precept," "commandment," "statute:" these essences of inner thinking are the mysteries of Deity for which this great Feeler's soul searched.

#3 - THE ACHIEVER
Ain't it the truth...

I just took that humanmetrics test. This is how I came out:

-snip-

good test, aint it?

good test, aint it?

I found it very intreguing. When I have more time, I'll have to read up on their methodology and see what kind of reliability and validity the test has, but yes, I enjoyed it...

good test, aint it?

despite the fact that I wasn't the person you asked, I'll answer :D
yeah, it's a pretty froody test, I got INTJ, which is basically what I was expecting. "the mastermind" Well... the galaxy does need a new Empress....

Which is why I now demand, nay, demand to know what yours was because I'm intensely nosy and my eyes are burning with tiredness.

i got ISFP, detailed more here http://typelogic.com/isfp.html

apparently i'm the most absent-minded of the types... able to contemplate the meaning of the universe but can't boil an egg:p

ISFPs are less fantasy-oriented than INFPs. These types are often confused, however, INFPs lean strongly to daydreams, poetry, prose and more philosophical pursuits; ISFPs often live out 'id' experiences rather than writing or even talking about them.

More in touch with the reality of their senses than their INFP counterparts, ISFPs live in the here and now. Their impulses yearn to be free, and are often loosed when others least expect it. The ISFP who continually represses these impulses feels 'dead inside' and may eventually cut and run.

hmm i hope to be where you are someday. i'm still going through the whole depression & self-loathing thing... its fun:)
but its also part of what being a Four is all about. the test & related info on this thread really told me more about myself than any other test to date has, so sorry if i keep going on about "being a Four":p

*Hugs* You'll get through it. You will be where I am if you can just stick things out. It's really about an attitude. You have to change the way you think. Therapy was great for me. Also, sometimes you just need something to get you to realise that you have the strength. Like for me, it was after the worst week of my life where everything went wrong and I got through that and realised that I was stronger than I thought and that gave me hope.

While life is at it's worst now, afterwards it can become better than ever before. So keep fighting. You'll get there.

Hehe don't worry :p

we're obviously the same person http://www.ironmaiden.org/images/smilies/eyes.gif

Freaky.... though I got different scores on my other tests so it's ok!

INFJ Counsellor idealist

The Counselor Idealists are abstract in thought and speech, cooperative in reaching their goals, and directive and introverted in their interpersonal roles. Counselors focus on human potentials, think in terms of ethical values, and come easily to decisions. The small number of this type (little more than 2 percent) is regrettable, since Counselors have an unusually strong desire to contribute to the welfare of others and genuinely enjoy helping their companions. Although Counsleors tend to be private, sensitive people, and are not generally visible leaders, they nevertheless work quite intensely with those close to them, quietly exerting their influence behind the scenes with their families, friends, and colleagues. This type has great depth of personality; they are themselves complicated, and can understand and deal with complex issues and people.

Counselors can be hard to get to know. They have an unusually rich inner life, but they are reserved and tend not to share their reactions except with those they trust. With their loved ones, certainly, Counselors are not reluctant to express their feelings, their face lighting up with the positive emotions, but darkening like a thunderhead with the negative. Indeed, because of their strong ability to take into themselves the feelings of others, Counselors can be hurt rather easily by those around them, which, perhaps, is one reason why they tend to be private people, mutely withdrawing from human contact. At the same time, friends who have known a Counselor for years may find sides emerging which come as a surprise. Not that they are inconsistent; Counselors value their integrity a great deal, but they have intricately woven, mysterious personalities which sometimes puzzle even them.

Counselors have strong empathic abilities and can become aware of another's emotions or intentions -- good or evil -- even before that person is conscious of them. This "mind-reading" can take the form of feeling the hidden distress or illnesses of others to an extent which is difficult for other types to comprehend. Even Counselors can seldom tell how they came to penetrate others' feelings so keenly. Furthermore, the Counselor is most likely of all the types to demonstrate an ability to understand psychic phenomena and to have visions of human events, past, present, or future. What is known as ESP may well be exceptional intuitive ability-in both its forms, projection and introjection. Such supernormal intuition is found frequently in the Counselor, and can extend to people, things, and often events, taking the form of visions, episodes of foreknowledge, premonitions, auditory and visual images of things to come, as well as uncanny communications with certain individuals at a distance.

The same as Gandhi!!!

Just taking the loooong trans4mind one.

Oh and huge bump!

*Hugs* You'll get through it. You will be where I am if you can just stick things out. It's really about an attitude. You have to change the way you think. Therapy was great for me.

same as gandhi? count yourself lucky... what a person to be like!
i want to be like gandhi too lol! :(


gah, i know its all about attitude - problem is i don't know how to change it. but anyway, i'm better now than i have been for a long time and i'm beginning to work things out:)
i think things have to get more confusing before they can get better - just like when you're tidying up you have to make a mess before you can tidy :)
thanks for the words of encouragment ;)

same as gandhi? count yourself lucky... what a person to be like!
i want to be like gandhi too lol! :(

:p But you're you and that's a great person to be :fluffle:

gah, i know its all about attitude - problem is i don't know how to change it.

Sometimes it just happens, sometimes something happens to make it happen and sometimes you have to do something about it. Get out there and do something with your life or get therapy or something.

but anyway, i'm better now than i have been for a long time and i'm beginning to work things out:)
i think things have to get more confusing before they can get better - just like when you're tidying up you have to make a mess before you can tidy :)

That's great! I'm very happy for you :D And just a tip, if anything tiny goes wrong then do not let yourself spiral down. Snap yourself out of it by doing something you enjoy, seeing a friend, talking to someone etc

thanks for the words of encouragment ;)

My pleasure :) :fluffle:

First-what is the reliability and validity of this test?
second-personality tests are somewhat subjective....people are subject to demand characteristics and social influence which may change the honesty of the answers. Self-report isn't necessarily the best method to gathering information on a person's personality.
third-I agree with those mentioning therapy-therapy is necessary to help alleviate the CAUSE of any mental problem a person has. Medications are useful to alleviate symptoms quickly, but without addressing the underlying problems, one will be bound to take medication for life or suffer relapse.

types 1, 4, 5 and 9 at the same time. is it really possible???? :confused:
