The "MBTI" psychological types test is based on the typology of Jung and Isabel Briggs Myers. It allows you to see how you function, as well as to understand and assume your choices and preferences.
The dimensions of the MBTI test are as follows:
- Energy Orientation: E Extraversion / I Introversion
- Information collection: S Feeling / N Intuition
- Decision making: T Thought / F Feeling
- Mode of action: I Judgement / P Perception
Knowing your 4 preferences from the test indicates your MBTI type. It positions you among the 16 personality types which appear below:

MBTI Test Psychological Profiles and Financial Independence
INTJs and INTPs are vastly overrepresented among the community of investors seeking financial independence. Almost half are INTJs (while they only represent 2% in the population) and almost a quarter are INTPs (3% in the population). These two types therefore represent 3/4 of (future) rentiers, while they are only 5% in the population. Something to think about...
Are they the only ones who have the skills to succeed in this particular quest or is it rather their extraordinary personality that pushes them to free themselves from work and consumer society? Certainly a bit of both...
THE Big Five and the MBTI test have many analogies, although the first is an empirical model, while the second is a theoretical model.

Good morning,
After taking the test, I am therefore INTP.
Can you tell me if this is compatible with stock market investments?
THANKS.
Leo, a loyal visitor to your site for a (very) long time.
Good morning
yes as stated here: http://www.dividendes.ch/intp-le-penseur/
The INTP has many qualities for investing in the stock market
What happens if you choose a career that is not listed in "possible careers"?
Well, it's like for me... we make do with a bit of time, and the more it goes on, the more we lose our temper and in the end we look for a solution to get out of it 😉
Hello, I would like to have my teams take this test. How can I proceed?
Hello, you need to refer to the professional test provided by the OPP: https://www.opp.com/fr-fr
Good morning,
As part of an academic project on the management of "difficult" personalities, I am interested in this distinction between personality types. Do you have a book to recommend on the subject?
Sincerely
Good morning
Have you tried the book illustrated in the article (click on the image)
Oh I'm sorry for the useless question, my connection was bad, the image was not displayed just now.
THANKS
A big thank you for this very detailed explanation of the 16 MBTI profiles. I knew the test from having taken it at work, but now, it's in a completely different context that I'm interested in it since I'm also a writer and your article gave me material to develop the characters of my next novel in a coherent way. I had a vague initial idea for each character, and these profiles helped me to clarify them, I recognized each of them in a profile that fits them perfectly! So, thank you. And I won't hesitate to share your article 😉
Good morning,
Is MBTI a tool that is used in parallel with personality colors? I am looking for a book dealing with personality colors and their actions but this book seems just as complete to me. But somewhat complicated. Is it possible to recognize what type of personality we have in front of us after reading this book? and what is the difference between MBTI and colors
Best regards
Good morning
All personality tests rely on different methodologies. Therefore, the results may differ slightly. It may be interesting to compare them, although it is not necessary.
I am ENTP, the recommended professions (Psychologist / engineer "IT personally) are those that I aimed for (17 years old) but I stopped the courses due to the unbearable school methodology for me, I do not feel capable of learning by being put in the same boat as the others and my learning methodology is completely punished by schooling (doing your courses from the results to create my own path therefore inability and involuntariness to do the homework requested) now that I have stopped I am much more able to learn but I cannot reach the professions due to the necessary qualification, but given that I unfortunately do not know everything at this level, do you have any knowledge on the subject that could help me to direct myself? I am quite lost because I am not given the means to move forward...
If you want to delve deeper into this topic (MBTI, socionics) and learn more about each personality type, you can take a look at this blog: http://www.socion.fr
the solution is self-learning. distance learning. we manage ourselves. we learn at our own pace
I've been an INFJ since 2014 (official test) until now. It doesn't bother me. However, there are times when I would like to change jobs, try an adventure.
My question is: can you suggest some readings or exercises to help me be more flexible with regard to the modes of energy orientation I/E, information gathering S/N, decision making T/F and mode of action J/P?
How do we get the results once we have taken the free test?

Hello, the ocean test does not work, an error message appears when you need to have results!!! Is this normal or is it due to a problem on the site?
I must admit that I hesitate between my two quick hypotheses on how you make money with this site Jérome. A site that deals with personality and the stock market at the same time, a great way to attract INTPs who spend their time thinking about everything and who will naturally think of a theory on their own functioning. Thus, they see what they have always theorized about themselves being rather well described and come across the stock market, then contact you because they always wait for this something before committing. Then, if you manage to make the experience pleasant for them, basically they make money, and it is in their nature to make generous donations to thank you.
Or I'm completely rambling because I'm an INTP who smoked too much and you're only doing this to help people in the stock market and hope they're talented and generous so you can get big incomes other than advertising.
Please contact me if the first theory is correct.
Make money from my site? Lol.
If I make money it's on the stock market, not really here!
1 ebook sold per month maximum, 2 donations in 2 years by a loyal reader friend whom I thank in passing, some earnings from advertising, minus the site hosting costs. There must be about 80.- per month on average left. If we divide by the number of hours spent writing articles, analyzing titles, responding to comments, maintaining the site and writing the ebook, the hourly wage is lower than that of a first-year apprentice.
I run this site purely out of passion, otherwise I would have given up a long time ago, like most others who think they'll make a fortune by opening a website...
I guess my intuition was wrong, and it's all the better if your motivation is expressed by passion and also explains the mistakes in French which are mostly mistakes of simple inattention. In any case, I realized things about myself that theories could not grasp, we can also think of Freud's on personality which turns out to be very instructive but not individualistic enough in my opinion.
Whatever your intentions, I am grateful for the creation of your site.
Break in the space/time continuum….
