Type, type, type

If you are also taking the OP class and happen to read this, let me know.

So I won't be able to sign up for video typing until Nov., which means I will be continuing to puzzle out my own type.

I was hanging out with my mom, setting up her new phone, so I asked her a bunch of questions to guess her OP type.  I've always thought we might be fairly close in personality, but different enough to cause conflict.  I typed her as an INFP in the OP system (though I always thought she was an INFJ before).  I could be way wrong, of course.

My main guesses for myself are:  INTJ that acts like an INFJ, ENFP or INFP.


8 Cognitive Functions



Am I like my mother?  If we are both INFP's?
The main difference would be our modalities.
I would be feminine Fi with masculine Te, 
to her masculine Fi with feminine Te.

My mother and I have always argued.  I thought I was Fe because she probably has masculine Fi.  But I now think I may have feminine Fi, more easily moved.  When we argue, it's more my masculine Te being mean to her feminine Te.  Mine won't be moved.



OR maybe she is a jumper? still INFP


Fi/Ne Straight INFP

"Dominant Introverted Feeling: (m)

As a dominant function, Fi manifests as a moral compass that points its user toward the direction they ought to explore next, based on how they feel about the information at hand.

The dominant-Fi monologue:“I must decide how I feel and where I stand on these issues before coming to a conclusion about what to do.” NOT MOVABLE


Auxiliary Extroverted Intuition: (m)

Auxiliary Ne manifests as a plethora of possibilities that arise to support or expand upon a thought or decision that the user has come to.

The auxiliary-Ne monologue: “I see a million different ways to look at the concept I’ve been analyzing and I want to consider them all.” NOT MOVABLE


Tertiary Introverted Sensing (f)

As a tertiary function, introverted sensing manifests as a proneness to nostalgia, as well as a method of contrasting the new and exciting with the old and the known.

The tertiary-Si monologue:“I will examine how my new experience or theory sizes up against my past experiences or way of understanding the world.” MOVABLE

Inferior Extroverted Thinking: (f)

As an inferior function, Te originally manifests as the inability to set one’s external desires or plans into motion.

As Te matures, the user finds themselves steadily more able to source the resources they require to make their dreams a reality. They also find themselves developing the ability to express their thoughts to others in a straightforward, logical manner.

The inferior-Te monologue (prior to maturation): “I have many goals I want to accomplish but often have trouble tangibly setting them into motion. I fear being perceived as incompetent by others.” MOVABLE
Fi/Si  INFP Jumper

"Dominant Introverted Feeling: (m)

As a dominant function, Fi manifests as a moral compass that points its user toward the direction they ought to explore next, based on how they feel about the information at hand.

Auxiliary Introverted Sensing: (f)

As an auxiliary function, Si manifests as the preference to rely on the tried-and-true method when working to accomplish a particular goal.

Tertiary Extroverted Intuition: (m)

Tertiary Ne manifests as a series of creative solutions that may go into solving a given problem or moving them towards a goal.

The tertiary-Ne monologue: “I will consider which possibilities will best help me accomplish the goal I have set.” NOT MOVABLE

Inferior Extroverted Thinking: (f)

As an inferior function, Te originally manifests as the inability to set one’s external desires or plans into motion.
