Re: Introversion

[(Anonymous)]

First of all, we should probably be talking about self evaluation not self diagnosis here, yeah? It's a question of self-knowledge not of illness.

Second I think any kind of self-evaluation or self-knowledge is going to be an imperfect abstraction of a messy, complex underlying reality. It's no different with this. The ambiguity and uncertainty is greater, and the certainty that can be assigned to it is less, but that doesn't mean that it's zero.

Third, I think there is such a thing as personality. I think it's complex and I agree - as I said before - it's not a black and white thing and people can act differently under different circumstances. It would be stupid to say that someone who is labeled as introverted must therefore act as an Introversion Robot. Of course not. But people have, in broad terms, different ways of approaching the world and reacting to stimuli, and I think that the things tracked by MBTI are some - not all, and not perfectly tracked by any means - of the axes along which those reactions and approaches differ.

So that's really the most I'm arguing for: the MBTI is an imperfect attempt to track a few aspects of personality, but they are real aspects of personality. People don't take it with the appropriate size of grain of salt. That doesn't mean it's total nonsense.
