I'm fully aware of the fact that some people care about this more than others, but I mean, we're in a comm about being a personality type so maybe some of us would like to discuss other psych tests, too ( Read more... )

I'm very interested in Myers Briggs but have mostly focused on the main four letters of the 16 types. I'm now curious about the other functions but a bit confused by them as well.
