The reason you guys are getting such similar scores is simple. User error caused by test design.

This test is an axis test, pitting opposed cognitive functions against one another. There is no 'middle' response, which forces you to choose preference one way or the other. However, there are 3 degrees of preference for each function. It is very clear that you guys are choosing the same weight for a lot of your answers.

Make sure to choose a few all the way to one side or the other. Pick the top four or so questions and do this, even if you wouldn't normally. Then make sure that the rest of your answers are varied between the 1 and 2 points of preference.

This should make your results more clear.

Keep in mind though, that this test can be a very poor indicator of type if you have well developed functions. For example, My Fe and Ti are well developed, so I have trouble choosing between them, which leaves my scores in both rather moderate. However, my Fi is much better developed than my Te, which creates a much more clear preference. I like to use this test as a little bit of a springboard, nothing more.

In order for it to truly be accurate, it should vary the functions it polarizes to include shadow functions. For example, it should also pair Ti with Te, Fi with Fe, etc. Seeing as it doesn't, the only people who will get an accurate read from this test are those who have very typical cognitive function development. Many of us here are not.

Ahhh! That makes sense. :smile:
 
Here is proof of what I am talking about...

The designers are fully aware of their design approach. You see how my results imply that I have no Si, Se, Ti, or Te in the graph? This is not a good test for analyzing one's overall cognitive functions, but it is a good test for getting in the ballpark of one's preferences (so long as the answers are varied well).

I have to admit that I do like the new layout of the test. If they'd pit shadow functions against one another, I think they'd have a very effective test.

really? Si that high and Ti that low? well i always had trouble describing things. but i think it would be a lot higher.

I don't really think this was very accurate. My usual INTP result fits better. I definitely rely a lot on Ti, and am very Ne. I have been overstressed and thus using my aspirational role of Fe more than usual recently though.
 
This is a bad test for cognitive function details because they're pitted against each other.

I don't think I like this test. I thought about doing it again as Noble suggested but then I realised that I answered right the first time. If I am equally good at either option then choosing one way or the other would give a false result.

I think MBTI needs some kind of sytem of wings like Enneagram does. This would solve a lot of the confusion around the often dramatic differences between the same types.

I think I would be an INFJ with an ENTJ wing

I'm not a fan of this test either. Not only are the results rather complicated but they're wildly different from other MBTI tests. And they get all this information from what, 20 questions? I call shenanigans.

Also I don't like having the questions on a sort of slider, especially as there's no absolute middle ground. When given two options I don't feel like being commited to either.

When are the other cognitive function tests gonna be fixed? I am tired of this one.

I, too, find some discord with this test. I don't so much mind that it's a slider. I just want a neutral option if this is the format that must be used.

Also, I'm apparently unintentionally (unbelievably) biased as my results still come out skewed. I really don't think I'm an INFJ.

Is it weird that my top 4 all are "i"s and the bottom 4 are all "e"s?

It doesn't fit with the Cognitive Process type makeups, that NEVER have 2 "i"s as a type's Primary and Secondary functions....

Interestingly, my ENTP percentage increased (previously, my highest score was still only 75%). But the Fi and Ni numbers are higher now.

I seriously doubt the J-ness but oh well...

Si 24
Ti 20
Fi 19
Ni 18
Se 17
Te 16
Fe 15
Ne 11

My last fuction test put Se first, but this strangely sticks all the extraverted functions behind the introverted ones.

I'm still gonna go with ISTP.
