I've taken the Meyers-Briggs several times and tried to answer in a way to get different outcomes. I've answered realistically, speculatively, and hopefully. Each time I got the same result.
- mgkimsal 13y agoInteresting. How strong are those results each time? Each of my 4 scores have had a % strength with them - my I and N have been fairly high (30-60% over time), and the T/J were always < 10%, slipping in to F/P on occasion.
- Supermighty 13y agoI don't remember. The test I took were online versions. I took several at different websites. I really don't know the validity or reliability of them.
- ionforce 13y agoThere's no way this is possible unless you are selecting different shades of the same category of answer. The overall framework of MBTI is largely binary. To produce different results, all you have to do is choose the complete opposite of answers you chose last time. "I make lists frequently" is the opposite of "I don't maintain lists at all" What wouldn't work is substituting "Crowded environments make me tired" with "I like to hang out sometimes, other times alone". The delta isn't wide enough.
- Supermighty 13y agoWhen I said I was trying to get different results I didn't mean artificial results. There were times when I answered the questions how I thought I would actually act in a situation. And I've answered the questions in how I would want to act in a situation. I wanted to see if there is a difference between who I am and who I want to be. What is the difference between actual self and idealized self. If I wanted a different answer then all I could have done was answer the opposite of what I did before.
