I love studying Psychology and learning about people operate. I realize that each of us have our own strengths and weaknesses. How well do we know ourselves and our motivators. I found it fascinating that after joining the military, I had a bit of a change. Whereas I used to be an ISTP, I somehow changed to an ISFJ (with a very close "P". Has anyone else taken this test before and into their careers? If so, what changed and do you like the change? (Personally I preferred the "T" me over the "F" me. Just to humor me (and others that may be curious), would you mind sharing your type? I'm also interested to see if there is a trend amongst those senior and those junior, though I have a feeling most Warrant Officers will be an "I".<div><br></div><div>A few links to get you started.

Sergeant Mickles, this is a good question.<div><br></div><div>I was an INTJ in 2001 and recently found that I am still an INTJ. It turns out that my percentages in all four psychological functions are very high, so it's unlikely that my personality type will ever change.<div><br></div><div>What I find most interesting is that the career fields associated with my personality type are the ones that I've loved and have pursued most aggressively both as a civilian and as a soldier. </div></div>

That is awesome! I noticed too, that mine are pretty spot on, as well. It also allows for the shifting mine does. I used to think I had various interests because I'm a Gemini, but I looked at the types I fluctuate between and realized my interests all lie within them.

I've always been an ISTJ, and still am. I guess that makes me a good little worker bee! It might be interesting to give this test to my Soldiers and see where they fall. Thanks for posting the test and the very interesting descriptive results.

I'm actually rather surprised that almost everyone is an "I". Hmm, is this truly an Army of 1. I was expecting most of you to be an "E". Thank you SFC Staley for being an "E"!

I thought there might be more "I" personality types on here. If we were all "E" types we would be out and about networking instead of doing it behind a computer screen.

A real interesting question is, have you ever had your soldiers do the test and bring you their results?
I can't say I have, but I think it would be interesting to see if this would help mitigate some of the mentoring issues. Maybe some leaders are very narrow minded in their mentoring style, and do not fully understand that they are missing their target audience.

I read yours. Did it seem accurate to you? I just took it and am pretty shocked by the result. I am well aware of the art of color therapy and the thoughts and feeling colors can elicit, but mine was kinda accurate. I am also aware as to how things can be written generically to fit everyone, but yours and mine were totally different.

Tried this one, but the results described almost the opposite of me. I'm curious about the science behind the color quiz.

SGT Mickles, I think my results were about 80% correct. Of course life choices and societial norms have changed so some of the things have to be played down to not stick too far outside of the masses.
SGT Bytnar, here is a quick look into the science. I'm not saying there isn't more to find but it is a start. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCscher_color_test
The Lüscher color test is a psychological test invented by Dr. Max Lüscher in Basel, Switzerland. Max Lüscher believed that sensory perception of color is objective and universally shared by all, but ...
