Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Grant Ward (ISTJ)

in Movie/TV MBTI Types, Paid Requests

Grant Ward from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is most commonly theorized to be an INTJ, which we did consider. However, we believe that Ward is more in line with an ISTJ than an INTJ. Of course, Iโ€™m sure some of you reading this might argue that he was only acting like an ISTJ while undercover. Believe [โ€ฆ]

Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End: Stark (ESFJ)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types, Paid Requests

Stark from Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End is typically typed as an ESFP or an ISFP. We considered both of those theories, but ultimately saw more potential evidence for Si and Fe. Based on the information available, we landed on ESFJ for Stark, although ISFJ would also be a valid theory. Hopefully this makes sense. If [โ€ฆ]

Carl Jungโ€™s Psychological Types: A Look at the Framework

in Advanced Theory, Jungian Theory

Today, there are many variations on the 16 personalities theory (the most prominent being Myers-Briggs), but all of these theories are based on one original work, by Carl Jung. Carl Jung observed, what we refer to as, โ€œpersonality typesโ€ among the population, but thatโ€™s not what he called them. Instead, he referred to these types [โ€ฆ]

Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End: Frieren (INTP)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types, Paid Requests

Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End is a bittersweet anime, focused on the adventure after the adventure. Itโ€™s an interesting take that we donโ€™t often see. As a character, Frieren presents like the prototypical INTP, which made her easy to identify. Of course, we made sure to consider other theories for Frieren, and double-check our evidence, but [โ€ฆ]

Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End: Fern (ISTJ)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types, Paid Requests

Fern from Frieren: Beyond Journeyโ€™s End is widely recognized as an ISTJ, so this analysis shouldnโ€™t be surprising. We considered multiple personality types for Fern, such as ISFJ and INTJ, but ultimately landed solidly on ISTJ. The alternate type that we considered the most was INTJ, but the case for Si ended up being stronger. [โ€ฆ]

INFP vs ISFP: 9 Differences

in Typing Dilemmas

INFP vs ISFP is an extremely common personality type dilemma, with most people erring on the side of intuition. Of course, there are multiple reasons for that. Intuitive content dominates the internet, which can make it especially challenging for sensors to accurately identify themselves. ISFPs especially seem to have very little content written about them.

MCU: Quentin Beck [Mysterio] (ENFJ)

in Movie/TV MBTI Types

The Myers-Briggs personality type of Quentin Beck, or Mysterio, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe is not hotly contested, to my knowledge. I just wanted to check it out for myself, and verify that Mysterio is indeed an ENFJ. (Iโ€™ve been gathering examples of villains to use in another article.) I did consider ESFJ and also [โ€ฆ]

The Myers-Briggs Personality Types As Villains

in Function Analysis

Assumptions are constantly made about each of the Myers-Briggs personality types, including which are the heroes and which are the villains. For instance, the first character that pops into your head when you think of an ENTJ or an INTJ is probably a villain. That could be the fault of writers leaning into tropes, or [โ€ฆ]

Planet of the Apes: Caesar (ISFJ)

in Movie/TV MBTI Types, Paid Requests

We accepted a request for the Planet of the Apes reboot trilogy, specifically focusing on Caesar, the main character. Unfortunately, while we settled on ISFJ for Caesarโ€™s personality type, we couldnโ€™t find as much information to support it as we usually like to. To be frank, if this wasnโ€™t a paid request, we wouldnโ€™t be [โ€ฆ]
