By focusing on the strongest configuration of cognitive processes, your pattern of responses most closely matches individuals of this type: INFJ
Lead (Dominant) Process
Introverted Intuiting (Ni): Transforming with a meta-perspective. Withdrawing from the world and focusing your mind to receive an insight or realization. Checking if synergy results. Trying out a realization to transform things.

Support (Auxilliary) Process
Extraverted Feeling (Fe): Building trust through giving relationships. Empathically responding to others' needs and take on their needs and values as your own. Checking for respect and trust. Giving and receiving support to grow closer to people.

​
If these cognitive processes don't fit well then consider these types: ENFJ, or INTJ

If these results are different from what you know of yourself, you might consider why your developmental pattern does not align with your expectation. You might also consider exploring this result as a possible better fit.

UGHHHH, Ne/Ni are tied, one of them is always a little higher than the other. wtf?? How does that happen?

Also, I don't think I've ever seen my Fe that high, nor my Fi/Te that low (they're usually a little more balanced). o_O But, I'm also a tiny bit healthier mentally and emotionally than I have been the past times I've taken this test. Wonder if that had anything to do with it...

I think that the Fe of all these INFJs in one place is contagious (your Ne is still higher than Ni, though, interesting). :m083:

Edit: Also, your processes all seem pretty balanced, snazzy. ^-^ Did you select "somewhat me" a fair bit?

Why the hell is my (Fi) so high!? It's no surprise to me that my (Se) is higher than my (Ti) given that I've been exploring my shadow a lot lately.
 
Because I like to see how my functions change over time in different situations/moods

[MENTION=1451]Billy[/MENTION]; Your results are rather ambiguous, and look a lot like mine.

F = 75.7
N = 62.3
S = 51.3
T = 50.9

E = 126.6
I = 113.6
P = 113.6
J = 101.6

I added them up to point out the lack of clear type. It looks like you're an F dominant, but also a P dominant, while being extroverted, but as an N type the only options are ENFJ (F > N > S > T) or INFP (F > N > S > T). Neither of those fit as ENFJ is E and J, and INFP is I and P.

I would highly suggest you try to determine your Enneagram type. I think it will shed some light on your MBTI type. You seem like an 8 or a 3 to me, and both of those are very uncommon for an NF type. I'd assume that if this is the case, it could skew your MBTI or cognitive function test results enough to get ambiguously NF results.

Interesting. I've been coming around to the idea that I am NOT, in fact, an INFJ. This is a suspicion that I have had for a long time. I do believe that I was testing frequently as an INFJ because I was very much in an anxious and depressed state of mind. I think almost all of my results have reflected that so far. Now that I am calmer, have been living with my roommate for a while, have been socializing more, have been kicking the shit out of work lately I don't really relate as much to the INFJ thing anymore. There are still touches of it there, but I don't think I can really call myself an INFJ anymore.

Other thoughts on this are welcome.

According to this, I'm an ENTJ but it is possible I am also an INTJ or ESTJ.
