neuroticism would be explained as a number of different traits producing a similar looking result
this is based on a theory of cognitive functions, MBTI
there is a correlation between NTs and neuroticism I believe
but there's not a universally accepted conversion formula where someone highly neurotic is predictably this combo or that combo in MBTI terms?
no
one bunch of people tried a synthesis of neuroticism
by adding a letter to MBTI
-A or -T, assertive or turbulent
I think its worthless
that's interesting
what's your opinion? is neuroticism just a misperception of something else?
I am forced to consider it is a misinterpretation of other things yes
on this page
Idealist = NF
Rationalist = NT
Traditionalist = ST
Hedonist = SP
and while the rest are a mix
I've only met one person I'd call really neurotic
Inventive = ENTP
Idiosyncratic = INTP (Less characteristically INTJ)
and perhaps even ENTP
I'm reading Solitary now
people would say this sounds like me
I'm more of a gnostic than a pure rationalist though
read idiosyncratic as well
I don't think I'm interested in "diagnosing" myself on this stuff though. Sometimes you just kinda read yourself into whatever it is you're reading.
they identify idiosyncratic with INTJ
and solitary with INTP
mmk
in practice there is a significant overlap, as you will appreciate
however, inventive and aggressive are clearly different
an ENTP example, Sam Hyde
lol I am definitely interested in the occult
"Outward view. Though they are inner-directed and follow their own hearts and minds, Idiosyncratic men and women are keen observers of others, particularly sensitive to how other people react to them" this is interesting
its certainly true for me
i like paranormal shit
have you taken the big aspie test @Alien Jesus
