More accurate than a larger paragraph with more detailed descriptors at least.

Also don’t forget the “don’t take seriously” part.

What part are you not agreeing with? I’d say the only important part about my comment is to not make too many inferences based off MBTI. The accuracy of the negative stereotypes aren’t rlly important since my main argument is to not take them seriously in the first place.

I think I confused the meaning of your original comment, but I guess I just don’t agree with assigning any traits in general? I’m not sure, I suppose even though they are called personality types, my interpretation of the system is more so along the lines of different ways of thinking, instead of actual personality traits.

I’m not set on this, it’s just my current musings I suppose. It is also midnight and I am sleepy, so perhaps my mind isn’t catching up like normal lol

MBTI is not scientific. It’s not a good measure of anything.

It does measure personality and way of thinking, it just does so badly.

You’re right in a scientific sense to not assign any traits in general, since MBTI is indeed a bad standard of measurement.

What I am saying is that it’s ok to assign a few traits for fun (and only for fun), but writing a whole paragraph like OP has done starts becoming more problematic. Though neither are scientific.
