I came across some interesting info the day about personality typography and disorders. I found several sources (nothing extremely credible) that speculate that some typologies are more likely to be narcissistic or have a full blown NPD pathology. And then I asked a few of the Ns at psychforums (who are either diagnosed Ns or believe they are N) what their Myers Brigg typography is. And low and behold, those who answered (one of them admits to being a psychpath, fyi) had the NTJ combination. A couple were INTJ (intoverted dominant) and a couple were was ENTJ (extroverted dominated)...including the psychopath.

This interested me because my last N was INTJ (and the INTJ description fits him like a glove) and the info I found said I/ENTJs are likely to be Ns.

Do any of you know what your Ns digits were?

Also, do you know what yours are? Mine is INFJ...which is apparently a very cousin to the INTJ (maybe explains, in part, feeling like were so alike...nah, that was the hypnosis and mind control! :) Anyway, INTJs are considered rather rare...about 2-3 percent of the population (hmmmm...kinda aligns with the percentages the DSM claims for Ns).

Also, got me thinking about the difference between having a dominant T (thinking) vs. F (feeling)...and wondering if having a strong F can lead to being overly empathetic...which is obviously trouble when an N crosses your path.

If and when I get back into the dating scene, one of my first questions might be "what's your digits?"...gives new meaning to the query, eh? :)

ESTP's

I recall reading somewhere that this type is over represented in Psychopaths. Here's description of the type. This is for a HEALTHY ESTP. I imagine a ESTP path. would be very, very bad news. http://typelogic.com/estp.html

Meyer Briggs

Good point

True, that they could lie and skew their results (digits). I just found it interesting that there's some sources that say the NTJ combo is more likely have have NPD..and my second N was INTJ (as comfirmed by his military testing). Wouldn't surprise me if my 1st N was ENTJ. For me, at least, it says "stay away from the INTJ/ENTJ people". It was interesting in polling those N/psychopaths (and frightening too...don't go there when you're first out of the N relationship...to triggering) that many of them have that common typographic profile. I think it would be more interesting to know if there's a common type (or predominant one) among us here at this site. Could help us understand what trait about ourselves makes us more vulnerable to these empathy-less, conscience-less inhumans. My guess is it's the "f", feeling trait.

No, I haven't

Barbara, I haven't read Please Understand Me...but will now put it on my reading list. Thanks! Interesting how our Ns had the "T". Were any of those mentioned above the somatic N? I wonder too if the introverts are more likely to be cerebral and the extroverts somatic?
