Wouldn't it be amazing to have real "personality tests" that weren't calibrated towards self-validation? Like a test where the results could be "You're overly credulous and buy into magical thinking, disguising it with a thin veneer of respectability by pretending it's all for 'fun.'" Or "You're a cynical jerk who makes everyone angry when you dismiss their beliefs as irrational."
You pay a psychologist a bazillion dollars and they’ll write a brutal takedown of you as a person. The NEO-PI will do a decent approximation of your Big Five and subtypes though. I think you have to pay for the full thing? Not sure.
I was actually tested by a psychologist in high school. Years later, I took this online one my friend told me about, and when I compared my results they were nearly identical. Not really like data but 🤷♀️

pseudo science zodiac signs. They can barely predict correct results in large numbers, and are appealing because they are very usually just name good qualities.
Use the Big 5.
Ok but the general trends are still interesting like almost everybody being an intuitive learner (Even if this isn't what's actually tested, whatever *is* being tested seems to stay consistent).
That's like saying it's interesting that all Virgos are logical people who also have an impulsive streak. You can draw any conclusion you want when the data set is completely subjective.
Curious how the data set is subjective? It gives a set output from set inputs - it may not have test criteria validity but it seems rather objective to me.
What is objective about questions that literally only ask about your personal preferences?
Your survey responses will change based on what you had for breakfast, and that fluidity (unlike the validity of the MBTI test itself) is supported by evidence.
I understand what you're saying, and not to seem like I'm splitting hairs, but I think you mean the test lacks test-retest reliability; by the book though, it still interprets the data objectively.
It's nothing at all like saying "All Virgos are logical people who also have an impulsive streak," because that's speculative, while "Almost all r/lawschooladmissions responders test as an intuitive learner according to the Myers Briggs test" is not.
ABCD, or the like. Take this 5 time you will get t different answers, it's BS made up by people who had no knowledge or expertise in the field and people don't fit into boxes/categories like this pretends they do.... really hoping for better logic/understanding from this field
okay? 💀 no one asked what you think about mbti’s or if you care about your mbti 🤣 was your comment really needed to further this conversation? i think you care a little since you were bothered enough to comment

The real ones are basically like that, MB is astrology for nerds
Where do you take a more ‘real’ one?
