Are Objective Personality Really Objective?

Hey, I’m Erik Thor—a developer, psychologist, and writer. I explore personality spectrums, cognitive functions, and growth. Read my story or support my work.

Hey!  My name is Erik and I’m an FF-ENTP-Ne/Ti CPB(S). At least if you trust Objective Personality. Which you really shouldn’t. I have never typed as ENTP and never really related to the ENTP description. So just make up your own mind and see their ideas more as interesting alternative theories or perspectives. In the end, you are the one who needs to be able to explain yourself. Systems and frameworks can help, but you are going to have to do the majority of the work on your own. Sorry.
­Objective Personality is a relatively new system that claims to be able to “objectively” type you. But they are also saying that they will need years to test and back up their theories. In their own FAQ, they explain that they are still far from being able to claim to have any scientific evidence. So what is the truth here? 
­First of all, I believe Objective Personality (OP) have a honest and real desire to make the study of personality type more scientific, and I know how challenging that is. I also think they are adding some interesting contributions to better understand personality type. That’s why I am doing a video series studying their concepts and adding my own theories and ideas.

I believe typology would be better if different systems learned to work together and collaborate.  That’s also why I am working on an Objective Personality self-assessment test. I do this to see if it is possible to come up with falsifiable definitions and statements that can be used to predict your personality type, using the central OP concepts.

The test is still in beta and some results are not showing correctly, but you can already see how you would fall on the core scales and begin exploring your Objective Personality type. 

Take the test here In today’s video, I am talking about the Objective Personality four animals and how you can use them to better understand introverts, extroverts, judging and perceiving types. I hope you will enjoy them and my continued exploration of OP!
