Split Personality?
Dec. 22nd, 2008 06:58 pmllcoolvad introduced me to the Typealyzer which analyzes blogs for personality type. Here are the results for Note of the Living Deb:
That's the exact opposite of the results I get by taking the test the normal way: INTJ.
How would my journal be the opposite of me? Don't any of my brains show up in here? I am all about thinking and analyzing and planning.
The explanation above is giving me some ideas, though. I do plan ahead, but I don't like to write about my plans in my journal too much because it feels too much like accomplishing something by itself and thus makes it less likely that I will actually do what I am planning. It's better to write about it after I have seen how the plans worked out.
And writing for an audience limits me some. Of course I try to avoid conflicts and confrontation because you never know who's going to find your journal.
But surely I don't turn into happy fun party girl? (Hey, check out this lampshade! Woo hoo! There are enough lampshades for everyone!)
Another possible explanation is that the application is still beta.
ESFP - The Performers
The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don't like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.
The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.
