I'm definitely an IXFP. I've always been placed as INFP on personality tests and while I use intuition a lot I also use sensing quite a bit too. Also the tests that give you a spectrum for each function place me 1 or 2 points more toward intuition than sensing; so practically in the middle. I'm detail oriented and organized at work but at home my stuff is a cluttered mess but I know where everything is.
I'm an INFP it's easy for me to be organized and have follow through in a job or for someone else. My personal life is another thing. I get distracted easily, I'm organized but all over the place at the same time. I call it unorganized organization😂 and my follow through is terrible😅
something that helps me make the distinction is understanding Socionics. . . Now, Socionics messes with the acronyms so watch out for that. (INFP in MBTI is INFj in Socionics) . . . anyhow. . . (Hereafter I'm just going to use the MBTI acronym because its simpler) INFP are part of the Delta 'Quadra' While ISFP's are part of the Gamma 'Quadra' The quadras are basically the types grouped by their cognitive functions. from the link below. "Deltas (INFP's) tend to see Gamma types (ISFP, ESFP, INTJ, and ENTJ) as driven and reliable in personal and business relationships, but not sufficiently understanding of people who want to pursue their own individual path in life. Gamma types sometimes become too demanding and can have a streak of vindictiveness or spitefulness which prevents them from being accepting and forgiving." while "Gammas (ISFP) tend to perceive Delta types(INFP, ENFP, ISTJ, and ESTJ) as kindly, well-meaning and creative people, but perhaps too present-focused and lacking ambition with a longer-term perspective, as well as being overly welcoming and forgiving of people whom Gammas may regard as undeserving." www.sociotype.com/socionics/quadras/delta
@@MomandBuggshey I think you are an enfp then because it's is easy for them to be organised because they have extroverted thinking as tertiary function. You should look more into cognitive functions tho
I’ve definitely always struggled deciding on whether I am an ISFP with strong Ni or an INFP. I really like what you said about not feeling the need to pigeon hole yourself. Thanks good video
I have an isfp brother while I'm an infp, there are so many differences between us. One of them is he's strong opinionated which is i like and admire while I am into more perspectivism. Infact thats one of the difference between xsfps and xnfps.
Good video, I believe functions are on a spectrum and just because a function isn't in your stack it doesn't mean you never used it. Just like you might use your right hand a lot. It doesn't mean you've never used your left hand. It's just not your go to or dominant
I've gone through several videos about the differences between INFP (which I got as a test result, or INFP-T to be exact) and ISFP (which I feel has some qualities that might fit me) and I think this was the first to mention the idea of IXFP which just sounded so logical to me :D I've long thought a lot of things sit on a spectrum, so I could totally see that as being the case here too. Learning about personality types has certainly helped me learn a lot about why I am a certain way at heart, but it was a really good point to remind people that things are more flexible :) Thank you for this video! ^_^
If you wanna choose one I'd say write that you're an InFP or IsFP instead just to signify preference. It's rare to be exactly in the middle, and even a small preference makes a small difference. www.personalitopia.com/small-vs-big-letters-in-the-16-personalities/
What if I'm very clumsy and abstract, but I'm not that much into message of for example songs, but into their form- if the form of art is more important than the word, and I'm not for example into poetry? If I know I have a lack of Se, but also I'm using it maybe as much as an ISFP to decorate, dress up differently and more ''artistic''. If I analyze music by the originality and quality of sound firstly and its the main fuel for me? If the greatest fluel for my soul is great feeling for my sences- hearing and sight- I don't know if I'm an INFP or ISFP- I've always been clumsy since I was a kid, very slow, didn't like sports, and always wanted to avoid playing football on PE lessons. Also very philosophical, daydreaming wallflower. So I don't know- maybe I'm INFP 4w3, I've heard it's an INFP who is more similar to ISFP than INFP 4w5
You probably don't lack Se it's just not your dominate function or in your personality stack. For instance Fe isn't in my stack, I'm an INFP but I'm sure I've used it. It's just not my dominate function or dominant personality filter so to speak. Also I like to decorate, I like fashion and I like aesthetics and art but I'm not an ISFP. From you saying that you are philosophical, daydreaming wallflower, I think you are leaning more towards INFP. Deep thinkers/feelers tend to be intuitive
Thanks for the this video! Was second guessing whether I was an ISFP or not, but this confirmed that I’m 💯 an ISFP The examples you used about finding visual differences and being in-tune with your body really helped. I love dancing and got a lot of compliments for my dancing in dance school as a kid
I can't tell anymore. I zone out 24/7 I am always out of the loop with trends, I don't even know any celebrities. I always dissociate so I'm never in the present and I'm bad at all sports. I don't think I can have se. But I also have aphantasia, I have a lack of an imagination, I can't read as in i struggle reading and comprehending ideas and such, I prefer movies to stories, I dont like multiple ideas but i also dont like having one idea only as well so I dont seem to have a good ni or ne yet I keep getting good ne results online. I also can't comprehend metaphors unlike most Infps that can. I have a shit memory but I might have some si in my stack since I often rewatch shows i've already seen millions of times and get lost in that nostalgia and I learn things based on what I've done before but I also am a kinesthenetic learner so I learn by doing. I'm erally confused rn because I cant be Isfp since I hvave little to no se apart from being good at observing details sometimes, but I also cant be infp cuz I have a bad ne like i cant visualize stuff. I am not grounded and realistic but Im not up in the clouds. I am always pretending im a fictional character and never me but im not using my imagination. I cant see details when I draw but I dont draw from imagination, I draw like a muscle memory stim type of thing that would seem more like se I guess. I dont go with the flow, I dwell on my problems but I also hate talking about the past so I dont know if I have si or not. I don't talk about the future because its stressful, i dont talk about the past or present eihter because its stressful. I do impulsive things out of nowhere but Idk if thats se or just me being mentally ill. I am into perfectionism in a lazy way for instance, I try so hard at a project but then cuz I tried too hard I give up and then It becomes a mess. I can't handle when things are neat ever. I'm not abstract, I think my ideas are bad, but im not present in reality at all. Cant be isfj because I doubt I have fe but maybe and that si is way too high, my si is bad I forget every single thing. An si thing I do is hoard stuff and never throw stuff away ig. Can't be enfp because I'm shy as hell and my ne is bad. Maybe im just too messed up to figure out I have no idea anymore.
Si doesn’t necessarily mean you enjoy talking about the past. It just means that things in the present can trigger memories, and high Si users tend to use past experiences to guide themselves through the present. Ne doesn’t mean visualization either. I think you’re closer to Infp
Thank you for this video. I was struggling whether I was an isfp or infp. Now I know that I am an isfp. I don’t think any theories too much lol. And I’m really skeptical about new facts or just theories in general. But I do have one issue tho. I hate sport. I do started gym but sport in general is a no for me. Like football and stuff. I hate it. So idk, that’s why I thought I was an infp. And I also don’t know how to draw(associated with isfp) and I’m a writer so
Struggling? This is not that serious. You are not going to discover anything meaningful with this personality type stuff-it’s not real. Focus on spirituality, nature, and the people in your life. I don’t mean this in a rude way at all, but I see a lot of people giving so much energy towards this and it can become really narcissistic.
I have a sibling who thinks they went from ISTP to ISFP, lol. She’s insensitive, an opportunist, cold, spontaneous, etc. I don’t believe in this personality stuff-youtube randomly recommended this video after not having been involved in this personality theory for years now. It’s ridiculous. People want to seem more interesting than they actually are! Anxiety can make people question things, depression can make someone behave differently, any other mental illness can create certain behaviors that are not naturally present in one’s personality.
im an infp and you cant change my mind muahahahahahahahhaaaaa and infact you made me believe stronger that im an infp muahahahahahahhahaahahaha do what you can about this muahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahaaaaaa talking about in between two types i think i have a bit of intp, interesting huh
I'm definitely an IXFP. I've always been placed as INFP on personality tests and while I use intuition a lot I also use sensing quite a bit too.

This just makes it even more clear to me that I'm an INFP. Also points to a good friend of mine quite possibly being an ISFP.

INFP's are open minded and like possibilities
This is true. I can be stubborn about my opinions 😅 - ISFP
Perfect video for my problem. I've been thinking about this so much

agreed, i think this makes more sense

You probably misunderstand that Se is just not all about sensuality. And Ne can itself be a fuel for artistic inclinations.
You probably don't lack Se it's just not your dominate function or in your personality stack. For instance Fe isn't in my stack, I'm an INFP but I'm sure I've used it. It's just not my dominate function or dominant personality filter so to speak. Also I like to decorate, I like fashion and I like aesthetics and art but I'm not an ISFP.

True.... Im ISFP based. But years i changed into INFP through experience in life. But i can tolerate we're same as base
Your type can’t change, you might just think and act different because of experiences but your type didn’t actually change
Ah yes, the pigeonhole-allergic IXFP! That’s me alright!

if you're "not sure," you're a sensate...
One thing: we could care but we chose to not care 1:37
what happened to your erik thor channel?
Still there :)
the different intelligence types are very interesting.. OMG i may actually be an ISFP.. ( or like you say "on the spectrum" )
im INXP, why do I watch this
im an infp and you cant change my mind muahahahahahahahhaaaaa and infact you made me believe stronger that im an infp muahahahahahahhahaahahaha do what you can about this muahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahaaaaaa
talking about in between two types i think i have a bit of intp, interesting huh
No, you are just you-a being on planet earth trying to survive.
JESUS CHRIST WHO CARES
Obviously not you 🙄
@@andeeanko7079 lmaooo
I care
Chill
If you don't care then what are you doing here?
