This 16-personality test was built by Erik Thor. It diverges from traditional tests because I treat personality as a fluid, changing state, and so, you can take this test multiple times to see how your results change.

It’s the first time I’ve seen this test, and since I’m skeptical about my personality type, I took several tests, including this one, and made sure of my personality type at last. intj T Thanks
Yes this is a such a good test/ Just found it too.
Hello, I am also a INTJ-T 🙂
your newsletter sign up featuresins’t working.
So this test is a Big Five test,not a 16 personalities one?
This is a funny question, because the 16personalities.com test is a Big Five test too (see their FAQ) 🙂 It’s an MBTI dichotomy-based test, because dichotomy tests are usually more accurate than cognitive function tests, but it is different from a Big Five test in that it follows an MBTI question standard (it tests for your likes and preferences, rather than your behavior).
I got ENFJ but I’m an INTP hahahahha. I got the same score on Thinking/Feeling, Sensing/Intuition and Judging/Percieving AND higher on introverted than extroverted???
Woah. It took me a long time to know (really feel confident) my type because the descriptions are so varied. About last year, after a ridiculous amount of research and self study, I finally landed on ENTJ. This test confirmed that. But what was most incredible was the video description you provided at the end. This was, hands-down, the absolutely most accurate description I’ve ever come across. You nailed it. I feel as if I should send this video anyone who has to work with me as fair warning. 🤣🙌🏻 Thanks Eric!!
This is an FYI – not anything that needs to be posted – my husband took the test and based on scores / bar chart, he was INFP but the video that got served up was INFJ. Just wanted to let you know to check the backend code. Thanks again!
Should be fixed now 🙂 Thanks for letting me know!
I can’t seems to do the test, are there any prerequisites?
It was temporarily down on the 31st
Hi Erik! 🙂 Thanks for offering us your version of the test! I really like that we can see as well the percentages of the weaker functions!! Gives a fuller picture.
I got the email function error and a friend of mine couldn’t even see her results- I guess she did it on mobile. Just so you know and are able to fix it! 🙂 All the best to you!!
Oh and I got ENFP-T instead of ENFP-A even tho assertiveness was 68 points and humility 40 points.. (if you need free help I’m a programmer just in case. I like your content)
Good point! Fixed this I think! Let me know if you see anything else.
I got INFJ-M — could you tell me what is the ‘M’? 😀
M is for Modest 🙂
The answer to my tests is always INTJ, but I had a doubt with ISTJ& INTP. But the result of this test and the short but accurate explanation convinced me that I am INTJ. I like it.
Hey Eric your ops test was really good. Its definitions were very insightful for me could you please provide the link of that test. I need it for some ideas in my own journey of typology researc
Did it. Gave me ENTJ as always. But I enjoyed this test more than the others and I found it easier to answer the questions.
I took this twice and tested first as an infp. On other tests I most often test as INFJ but on the second time on this test, I tested equally as infp and enfp. My enfp son and I can have theoretical discussions for hours and feel like only a few minutes went by.
This is an interesting test. I relate myself more to INFP (not sure though), so getting ENFP is a great result, I certainly considered it
I didn’t get the result in my mail. I checked spam. I started looking at the result after the test, but it timed out on mobile because I had to go somewhere, so I didn’t get to the part that explains the m suffix
… it gave me a bunch of numbers, but no actual type… literally what am I supposed to do with this?
There was a next button you could click to get to the personality type page after seeing your scores and preferences.
I saw that, and I wasn’t able to click it. It was greyed out and did nothing.
Further, I wasn’t just referring to the website… I was also referring to the emailed copy of the results. What I got was indeed a lot of data, but none of it usable for the untrained individual such as myself
I’m sorry there were technical difficulties, I tested and it should be working now. I have looked up your submission and you got the result INTj and you can read more about it here: https://www.personalitopia.com/intj
Gave Me ISTJ A except I’m ESTJ
I’m not getting results. Disappointing.
I no longer give personality type results, I just give scale results at the moment. Did you get scales and percentages?
I didn’t get my result, just a lot of different vocabulary words. And I also didn’t get my results in my email.
