Personality Type?


I was musing lately after my last perusal of the forum postings....Got me wondering about personality types on here and if there is a common thread. I, myself, am an INTP and I seem to see some parallels with the members of this forum. I am an Engineer and a musician that plays drums. As an Engineer I was quite aware that although collaboration could be fruitful, I was aware that pursuing an idea alone was fruitful as well. I also think that because of my personality, I am fine with being more in the background playing the drums. So then, I am just a bit curious if the members of this forum are more alike than different than the general population?

Mostly INTP, my system for my alone time, both in researching and listening.

estj - though on all axes, iirc, the readings were pretty middling, near the midpoints, no axes extreme at all

I don’t remember INTP… but looking it up__ sounds like me… fascinated with astronomy since five years old, a bachelor’s of science degree, practicing scientist for ten years, before deciding to turn around 180 degrees from reductionism to basics (as opposed to complexity… looking at a Monet is not explained by reducing it to the colors… it is the gestalt).

So, getting my Masters I wanted to look into complexity… later, Chaos theory. I love horribly complex ambiguous problems. My specialty professionally… and I have loved about pursuing high end audio. Really rewarding for someone like me.
