otherwise a lot of stuff would be wrong

2017-08-04 01:05:30 UTC  

personality is inherently a subjective thing

2017-08-04 01:05:55 UTC  

its actually very impressive that considering the crap tests

2017-08-04 01:05:59 UTC  

and people's changing moods etc.

2017-08-04 01:06:03 UTC  

it still gets to like 70%

2017-08-04 01:06:07 UTC  

A test that isn't reproduceable isn't worth using

2017-08-04 01:06:19 UTC  

depends what you are talking about

2017-08-04 01:06:32 UTC  

In this instance

2017-08-04 01:06:40 UTC  

The instance of personality tests.

2017-08-04 01:06:51 UTC  

in this instance, reproducibility would be nice

2017-08-04 01:07:00 UTC  

all the lack of it really tells you is the tests are shit

2017-08-04 01:07:05 UTC  

not that MBTI is shit

2017-08-04 01:07:13 UTC  

if you decide MBTI is shit because the tests are shit

2017-08-04 01:07:18 UTC  

Didn't you just say that MBTI isn't reproduceable

2017-08-04 01:07:22 UTC  

you've not really given it a fair chance

2017-08-04 01:07:27 UTC  

or has poor reproduceability

2017-08-04 01:07:31 UTC  

it's like 70% reproducible

2017-08-04 01:07:35 UTC  

not scientific or objective

2017-08-04 01:07:44 UTC  

exactly

2017-08-04 01:07:47 UTC  

so it sucks

2017-08-04 01:07:58 UTC  

I'm not going to be able to impress this on you I think

2017-08-04 01:08:01 UTC  

My results aren't guaranteed to reflect objective reality

2017-08-04 01:08:11 UTC  

reproducibility is not objective reality

2017-08-04 01:08:14 UTC  

as personality is subjective

2017-08-04 01:08:20 UTC  

a person can have 1 type, but answer differently

2017-08-04 01:08:24 UTC  

depending on various factors

2017-08-04 01:08:28 UTC  

not all of which can be accounted for

2017-08-04 01:08:30 UTC  

I took one and it says I am extraverted

2017-08-04 01:08:33 UTC  

which is true yet false

2017-08-04 01:09:02 UTC  

this problem comes up in medicine a lot

2017-08-04 01:09:10 UTC  

I see what you're saying

2017-08-04 01:09:12 UTC  

a lot of stuff is tested to be just great, very useful

2017-08-04 01:09:26 UTC  

but has no clinical significance once actually put into practice

2017-08-04 01:09:37 UTC  

partly that's just bad faith testing

2017-08-04 01:09:53 UTC  

correct would be:
Extremely open to new experience
Highly conscientious
Extremes of introversion and extraversion depending on the day
Not agreeable at all
High neuroticism

2017-08-04 01:09:55 UTC  

and a lot of stuff done in medicine does not have good ("A") evidence

2017-08-04 01:10:32 UTC  

5 disparate things that come together into nothing at all, I've always found

2017-08-04 01:10:41 UTC  

what five things

2017-08-04 01:10:47 UTC  

the ones @Deleted User 57835c2c just said

2017-08-04 01:10:49 UTC  

its his big 5

2017-08-04 01:11:01 UTC  

what do you mean by "come together into nothing at all"
