Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same

Another bunch of tests

via Kitty Power

Similar Minds has a bunch of personality tests that appear to be serious, unlike the "How evil is your web page" thing I went through yesterday. They have a Myers-Briggs test, one of the few of that sort that I take serious in theory. I say "appear[s] to be serious" because they give you those little results things you can stick on your web page which is just too Quizilla for me.

SimilarMinds.com is a resource for those interested in living an examined life. Currently, there are four types of personality tests online (Enneagram test, Advanced Enneagram test, Compatibility test, and Word Association test). I recently added Ask The Oracle which is a decision making aid.

The new Find Similar Minds engine allows you to find journals / blogs / webpages of people who score similar to you on a 27 question personality test.


The Find Similar Minds engine worries me as I'm not at all sure it would be a good idea for me to associate with people like me. That's why I haven't taken ANY of the tests yet. But I figured folks might be interested in it.

Okay, I took the Advanced Enneagram test.

Conscious self
Overall self
Take Free Enneagram Personality Test

I find it good that my conscious and overall selves are of the same type, because that is a very specific goal of mine.

For Myers-Briggs I get INTJ, which is my usual result, with very strong introversion. It describes INTJ as "Scientist". Most self-confident and pragmatic of all the types. Decisions come very easily. A builder of systems and the applier of theoretical models. 1% of the total population.

For Ennegram I get that my surface type is 5w6 and my overall type is 1w2. I got the highest score on type 5 with type 1 just behind it. Again, this is consistent with other times I've taken the test. The main type/mean type is an interesting wrinkle I haven't seen before.

I like the part in your results where it says that you like to sleep.

I forget my Myers-Briggs type. Actually, I took the test so long ago I'd probably get radically different results.
