"Most introverted extrovert". I think it depends what makes sense to us logically and how developed our Fe is... Or how much time we spend in our heads and observing the social atmosphere rather than interacting in it. As a home-schooled kid coming into high school, I was definitely much more of a quiet observer to begin with... and I also had better grades. But once I decided to start talking with classmates... Ne took the proverbial wheel. Stimulating conversations! Playful banter! Bad grades! The way I see it, and I think this would apply to other ENTPs and people in general, it's where your priorities lie. If you want to become more socially extroverted, outgoing and confident, you'll learn ways to and experiment a bit. I think experience is the main teacher with this one, just try using some Fe and see how it goes. Take mental notes, especially if you're one of them textbook argumentative types lol. If you prioritise seeking truth, information, or just your own individual hobbies, then it makes sense you won't want to socialise as much and spend more time pursuing time alone. Nothing wrong with either, just a matter of opinion.
As an ENTP it gets rlly annoying in multiple choice, because I always have the counter argument to every answer, so I always take so much more time on them
Seriously! INTP here, but for me it's more that I can find different interpretations of the question that match up with several different answers. I had this great math class where we could define our own interpretations of the questions and then answer accordingly, and we were graded on the consistency between the two parts. I know that prof pretty well at this point, and I'm pretty sure he's also an INTP haha
@@leannemiron oml, ye, I'd just prefer if my teacher gave an essay, because there I can say whatever I want so long as it's backed up with arguments and logic
*Dealing with stupid rules* INTP: Spends a good amount of time calculating the best way to bypass these rules without anyone noticing ENTP: Kicks them out of the way
@H G you might be ENTP. Its not a matter of social intra or extroversion. As an ENTP I don't fall into the social butterfly category but rather its a matter or intra or extroverted thinking. Do you like thinking within established logical frameworks or outside of established logical frameworks. Do you respect the established way of doing things and think from a default position of how can I work within this system to make it better or do you think from a position of fuck this system i wanted to break it apart and mould something better out of nothing (a bit extreme but you get the idea) To put it in filmmaking terms. If you're trying to become a filmmaker and your first instinct is i want to work my way up to being the CEO of Warner Bros and make them the best studio on the planet you're more likely INTP if you're thinking is I want to create my own studio out of nothing and make it the best studio on the planet you're more likely ENTP. Either way there's good characteristics for both.
Ahahaha, you got me! Just glad the cops didn't... But if they did, I suppose I could play the "colourblind" card, right? Does that apply to pedestrian crossing lights? Jokes and traumatic past experiences aside, I do spend a little bit of time calculating the risks associated with breaking a rule, but usually no more than a few seconds... Like the light... Obviously this will mean I gleam over some of the detail and accuracy that my introverted friend would more likely absorb, but hey, would they have had enough time to make it through that traffic light and over that exhilarating speed bump? We really need more speed-bumps with built in sounds when you go over them. Overused analogy (and of course that's all it is lol), but I'm sure it was helpful. It also depends on the circumstances. If it's one of those unspoken rules or social phenomena that the questioning of would be considered taboo, and as such there's no threat-level risk associated with it, I'll most likely just kick it in the guts and dump it in a trashcan like the artificial garbage it is.
I think "shoot, aim, load" can be misunderstood as ENTP's tend to act before they think, and then learn from their actions. Which eliminates analysis paralysis. I don't know about others but as an ENTP i certainly do have analysis paralysis :|
@@krvr989 "I do have analysis paralysis" I think we all do my dude. Its gonna sound a bit embarrassing but when ever i get analysis paralysis it takes a moment and then almost instantly I get a "no that's wrong" moment and I'm free from it. I don't know why its wrong but I think that and once im free I can make sense of why. But I have to be free first. Working it out comes after. You can't make a plan of how to escape if your goal isn't to scape. Hence shoot aim load
INTP: introvert ENTP: extravert Me, who relates to both INTP and ENTP: *ambivert confusion* Update: took several tests on cognitive functions, turns out I am an INTP with very high Ne, that explains the confusion
This is the most accurate take on INTPs I’ve ever heard. I remember telling my mother that I would never get married, and was going to college for Computer Science, because computers are predictable, they make sense, and they have an answer - unlike humans. Then I discovered typology and realized that there are concrete, scientifically justifiable explanations for human behavior and it was mind blowing to me. I’ve been deeply studying this ever since. I’ve almost gotten to the point where I can have functional relationships and mutually enjoyable conversations with my siblings. Still aspiring to achieve that. Wish me luck.
Mbti isn't really concrete or "scientifically justifiable". Even if it did help you, it's still a pseudoscience and should be takem with a grain of salt. Good luck btw
Based on this video alone, I think I've been mistyped as INTP for years where I may actually be an ENTP. Just the fact of not wanting to commit to anything is quite meta on my experience of not wanting to settle on INTP. To expand on that, I'd rather do nothing at all than to commit to some task or obligation that takes away my time over the long term - it's all about maintaining the potential to be able to explore and try new things.
This resonates so much with me, like I want to do so many things, I am fascinated by mostly everything I see lol but the thought of commitment to just one of them makes me want to give up altogether. It's kind of frustrating how everything is connected and our lives are too short to actually understand all of everything
I feel like I can relate to both aspects of ENTP and INTP. I’ve taken over 6 different variations of tests over an interval gap of 3-5 days atleast 30 times now, and frequently fluctuate between INTP or ENTP. All cognitive functions tests and I only go for the most “accurate” tests. In all my tests, my Ti and Ne are almost always EQUAL…. And my Fe is only slightly higher than my Si with my Se being weakest. Though I resonate with a lot of INTP I also resonate a lot with ENTP characteristics… especially with being able to socialize and connect with people. I am very much capable of that and have been since I was in high school, I just willingly choose to distance myself from people because I find them annoying. I also think primarily through a logical lens, and don’t really make decisions based on personal values… which I don’t really have many personal values now that I think about it. I am very understanding and always argue both sides of an argument. I like understanding things in depth, however, and love to learn for the sake of learning. Ultimately, I’m left unsure of what type I truly am
In the socionics system, INTPs have what is known as "blindspot Se" meaning that it's technically their worst function. It's also referred to as the polr function. There is a video somewhere on the channel titled something like "16 types worst function". It might be worth checking that one out and seeing which worst function is most applicable to you. That can really help you narrow down your type when you're stuck between two of them ~ Nathan
Look up and understand the concepts of 1st and 3rd function looping, being in the grip of your inferior function, demon functions, and your blind spot/worst function (which surprisingly isn't your demon function). Your weaknesses will show you the answer when your preferences won't. INTP's tend to be the most introverted of the introverts (only close match is INTJ's) and also tend to be the most "absent minded" and will often get called out by their friends and peers when they zone out and everyone else in conversing. Why? Because our function loop is Ti and Si, so since Ti requires introverted thinking we will get sucked into thinking about something that's happened in the past (Si) or a problem that needs solving, and will have a blank look on our face like we're high or a yogi in mahasamadhi. ENTP's loop is different; it's Ne looping with Fe. Here's a good explanation I found for them: When ENTPs get in a loop, they chase after ideas but they're also easily swayed by outside opinion. They get stuck in idea-generation and buzz from the people around them without accepting input from their thinking side
I'm (I think) an INTP, but I really resonated with the "can't pick a favorite book/song/movie" from the ENTP. My theory behind this is that INTPs like consistency and unchanging systems, and there are always new movies and songs coming out. I do have favorites when it comes to things like colors and foods, because those are the types of things that don't change. Great vid as usual!
Exactly. It irritates me when they use "favorites" as security questions. Other than something like color, how could anyone possibly narrow down a favorite? And it could always change. I'd never be able to remember what I used.
Honestly, even as an INTP, I kinda love chaos. except in important things like work, that is strussful. However, I love chaos because it gives me new things to look at and figure out. Its a very INTP way to look at it but honestly chaos provides something new. I love figuring things out.
I used to strongly identify as INTP abut after watching this I might be ENTP, what made me think this was the chaos part. I love chaos and when something new happens, even if it’s bad. Like if one of my family members got arrested I would just be so intrigued rather than worried because usually the same shit happens everyday, so when something new happens I always get excited and happy, even though I usually don’t have the balls to actually make something different happen. Also I identify as an ambivert, because in most situations I keep quiet if I’m in a place or group with a lot of people, but I enjoy coming up to individual people who I find interesting to talk to. So I might be ENTP
I relate to that, and I’m definitely an INTP. I’m also very chaotic in group situations, and yes, I do approach people I find interesting. I think INTPs love chaos to a point too-they like routine daily life with a sprinkle of chaos in between. For ex, if something dramatic happens every day, we’ll get annoyed. I think ENTPs are more likely to enjoy that sort of chaos daily. I really like world shaking stuff happening and it really makes me sit up and go enthusiastic, but if that happens daily, I think I’ll be annoyed and won’t even care anymore.
"As soon as they put their flag down somewhere, their brain will instantly play devil's advocate to themselves". The accuracy of this is uncanny, as an ENTP it can be downright terrifying to be so attached to something or someone. It's as if it goes against my own nature because suddenly my mind shifts into focusing on the benefits of the next new or shiny thing.
I'm intp and I'm always playing devils advocate with myself, but I think it is for the ends, not the means. I want to make sure I'm correct in my thinking and not just being biased with an opinion.
@@SpijkerMark oh yeah I'm definitely not surprised by that, knowing that ENTPs and INTPs have the same cognitive functions that just differ in dominance. I think it comes naturally to XNTPs because we can see so many angles of a situation that it is inevitable for the internal dialogue (aka inner devil's advocate) to take over in assessing any given situation.
@@lishayost144 I can say as an ENTP that it is the same case here. For me though, this whole inner dialogue process always happens to pursue more possibilities. In other words, I learn things in order to find an opportunity to link them with something else, which often times makes me ignore the details of the specific topic being searched. I may be wrong in my assumption, but I think that INTPs are willing to zero-in and focus on the details and processes of a subject much more than ENTPs. I have always realized the willingness of my INTP friends to break down the entire topic piece by piece to understand everything about it.
@@adamabouezzeddine2570 Yeah, I would definitely say I am probably more willing to go more in-depth about something most of the time, especially if it's very important to me or more interesting to me
Husband, the intp, built a man cave in the crawlspace to think in peace. Son, the entp, taught himself drums, moonwalking, and shoots off his mouth for kicks in his spare time.
INTP vs ISFJ is a really interesting dynamic for you to mention. While INTPs are so different from me in many ways, I often find myself relating to them.
God, ENTP makes so much sense! I've genuinely been angry with exam feedback because I do psychology and you need such specific things in your answers. Heck, wording things slightly wrong can turn your potential A grade into an F. Misunderstand a question a bit so you mention stuff which is slightly what isn't being asked for? You clearly know nothing about psychology. Like, "Explain how the psychodynamic approach explains personality". There are multiple psychodynamic theories which explain personality in my course. So I assume I have to broadly talk about all of them. Well, no. The question was secretly asking for a detailed (ew) explanation on one single theory. But you have to guess what that theory is. So, I accidentally showed more knowledge than I was supposed to, and got no marks for my answer. Great. :) And yes, screw feeling comfortable on choosing your values instead of changing like the weather.
Most tests are designed to have cherry picked answers to begin with. If you can't be predictable with how you respond by the groaning lectures and show uniquely seperate understandings of the topic, it'll be unmarked. The world revolves around simple answers and conclusions because most people don't care about the nuances. For teachers it's easier for them to lecture than actually teach. Most teachers are just over glorified preachers.
Its true ... as an ENTP I heavilly dislike it when i am asked "What is your favourite X ?" I dont have a favourite in anything... i dont understand how people can even have a "favourite" something ,it feels too limiting... and usually i have a lot of "things" that I like in "X" category ... and also a lot of things i dislike in it... usually i can explain the reasons why i like or dislike them Just being asked "whats is your favourite X" is not enough to make me anrgy , but if you fail to understand my way of thinking and are unwilling to listen to my explanation as to what my way of thinking actually is , I will get annoyed
i think i’m in a intp and same i like a little of everything and if i saw something is my favorite in a few days it won’t be anymore like i say black is my favorite color cuz it just goes with everything
INTP here and I have the same issue. I love too many things to have a favorite. It's like I'll say one thing is my favorite then my mind starts thinking of all the other things I like and then they're all my favorites.
As an INFJ with an ENTP roommate, this guy is insane. He's clumsy as hell, doesn't have any boundaries and pure chaos is the best way i can describe him. However, i also understand him deeply, his struggles. After I decided i was gonna try to embrace how he was like instead of getting pissed off silently, I could see how similar we are. Both of us being intuition doms with Fe/Ti in the middle, we actually share a lot of traits. I understand the ENTPs difficulty with Fi, deeper relationships with other people, their organization and choices in life. They're great people, but same as my experience as an INFJ, have a huge road of learning and gathering experiences to cross
Ssksksk perfectly described!! Thats exactly what my friends would say if u ask them abt me lmao I am such a chaotic person I came to watch this vid cuz i am not sure if i am into or entp Cuz i always get intp as a result but i feel like entp might appply to me as well
........ and I still don’t know. I’m closer to ENTP, but about half of the time I go into INTP mode. Especially when I become focussed on a subject. The internal logic of ideas is very important to me. EDIT: I’m thinking my ongoing indecision on which type I am is a clue that I’m an ENTP. 🤣
lol this reads as very INTP-ish (though of course that's not enough to type-- I just find it funny that these are pretty much my same thoughts about myself, but in reverse as I'm an INTP who comes across as pretty ENTP-ish when around other people). INTPs are also notoriously indecisive, and it's pretty common for INTPs to doubt their type, too.
Leanne Miron I also identify with the “detective” and “explorer” type. I don’t know if it matters that much... 😂 I know I do reach a limit with detail, if I determine/assume that further details are just, well... details. I can fall down a critical spiral if I’m working on something unto exhaustion, and then upon returning to the job find it as close to perfect as possible. I’m pretty extroverted when I’m comfortable with people, or when performing on stage. I hate giving or taking orders.
I'm entp and "going in depths" in a research/topic just pisses me off. In fact, I can't even focus :D. Only interested in the essence, the ideas, pros and cons and please someone, do the research instead of me 😄, I always appreciate it very much since it would pain me to half-death
But the thing is i really vibed with the wanting to know to know and liking personality tests because i want to fit into one of the labels. But on the other hand i cant really decide...
I thought I was ENTP but I’m actually INTP. I do like people but I really want a system and not unpredictable and dislike it when people make annoying decisions. It is true the older I get feel more structured and organized
I'm apparently an INTP that can be extremely ENTP at times. Which sort of makes sense, looking back on my life. I often wanted order, parameters- but not always the same kind. And, I often considered it as the base to jump from and land back on later.
I am a true XNTP: I literally used to work all day as a software engineer and then on Tuesday nights perform stand-up comedy at a local club! I was equally comfortable doing both, but I was more consistently proficient doing the geek stuff. Sort of…most of the time…
I do like some pressure in my environment. It helps me to process the logical conclusion faster, not meandering endlessly. I see pressure not being the same as chaos. Pressure is more a time crunch than disarray. - INTP
this is all bs.. intps aren’t a more ‘rigid’ version of entp but a more deep one entps focus on bouncing their ideas off of people, and getting others’ reactions to them they want others to praise them for being so called creative, and therefore try snd say anything interesting that comes to mind however, once this thing/thought has been said, they simply move on to the next, hence their extraversion- who mainly wants to share with others, not always going very deep and being much more surface level in where the thoughts came from intps think more about their own personal ideas and creations, all branching off from the crazy thing of a brain within their heads long term projects, acquiring skills, mastering or being the absolute best at something is more interesting to them, since they value these things internally, and aren’t focused on what other people think they would never want others to ruin their beautiful, inner world, and thus would rather think more freely to themselves in secret, hence the introversion their dreams in life are theirs intps impress people without constantly trying to
It seems to me that the type of personality can change according to the mood. Like what kind of cognitive functions are there? For entp and intp, they are the same, only they stand in a different sequence. So what prevents a intp who has had a good night's sleep on a day off, who has cleaned his teeth and washed his head since morning, who has eaten normally and is fastidious, who has understood the importance of human relationships in our biological form of social beings, from simply taking and... *bang* turn into an entp. After all, the 16 personality types of Maers-Briggs are just a theory based on how people behave in a given situation. Extrovert/introvert, sensory/intuitive, thinking/feeling, planning/adapting - all this is variable. Yes, someone likes to communicate more, someone less. Someone plans more, someone less. This is what the personality type is built on. But all this is so relative that sometimes it ceases to make sense. In general, to all Maers-briggs fanatics who cannot stop typing everything in a row, I will give advice: "pay attention not to one of the specific 16 personality types, but to one of 4: I forgot what the names are, in short, purple, green, blue and yellow." Because the types of personalities within these four differ so little and depend on such relative and variable things that it's just silly to try to meticulously pinpoint one of the sixteen. (changed) I am an analitic who has tried to define my personality type unambiguously. And sorry for google translate.
As an ENTP I see INTP as terrific teachers on every subject. I just love listening to them, even when they get into details. I will use their details to connect the dots and connect it with other subjects.
I love to get into depth of certain topics but I never really get stuck on it I like to explore things deeply what’s considered more INTP but I also never stop improving or developing my thought process about a certain topic but that doesn’t mean that I’m only interested on scratching the surface actually it’s the opposite through the development I feel like I can get a deeper understanding of a topic -ENTP
It's so refreshing to hear someone that understands just because you are an extremely introverted ENTP doesn't mean you aren't one or you were mistyped. I am strongly ENTP,but I'm extremely introverted and although the idea of people is very appealing actually being with them is like pulling the plug on my energy reserve. I'm drained within minutes. Kind of like buying a food that looks good in the store and then you eat it and it's disgusting. People look good,but they aren't good for me. ENTPs aren't all social butterflies,but that doesn't make us less ENTP.
I'm an ENTP 9w1 with fairly balanced cognitive traits. I always mistyped as a INTP yet I am not. At times I may act introverted, whenever I feel like socializing I have no problem talking to people. This depends on the person or group's vibe.
I am INTP 5w4 and I had difficulties in this video to differentiate myself from ENTPs. Biggest differences with my ENTP friends are our desire for company, which I have none. Also, my ENTP friend needs/wants to talk through his problems with his friends, while I need to go within in similar circumstances.
@@slyghost1243 donno... The comment was just a stereotypical joke anyway... Plus, what about them? They're free to think that introverts are boring and extroverts are cool coz they talk... Lmao... I don't care what anyone thinks... And I don't intend on changing the way they think really... Up to them...
Well that's the last comparison I was wondering about, still an INTP, I love routine, good food, deep intellectual conversations and when people do things I don't like, or when I do things were I stand by my principles I find myself getting annoyed with people and saying "it's not about (insert arbitrary social norm here), it's a matter of principle!" I think so many people who believe they are INTP don't understand how much Si third function is such an important part of what makes an INTP, an INTP So thank you for this video 🙂
My friend is an INTP, and she will spend a lot of time calculating before making a decision in order to minimize failures I'm an ENTP And I oftentimes find myself acting, and thinking while acting, and I don't care about making a mistake cause that's how you learn but yeah I think it's interesting how INTPs and ENTPs may differ within their cognitive functions
Yeah I'm an Entp too I hate playing chess with Intps they ruin the fun of it...I would argue that thinking on ur feet or more so thinking but not that long is a good way to improve ur brain in chess
We're a mind floating in a infinitude of possibilities. The intp is more interested in comprehending the mind, the entp is more into the possibilities. That's how I see it as an intp
theres no such thing as antp. u probably thought that bc ur an ambivert but that doesnt apply to cognitive functions. please do your research. youre either ti or te
@@juliattrn3268 They're joking, probably to jab at the inaccuracy of the I vs E dichotomy in popular mbti tests. I've made this exact joke myself in the past. This sounds extremely like a very ENTP thing to say, but I might be wrong 👀
Do you think you can classify CZcamsrs that may or may not have taken the test and got the wrong mbti and now think it's false? Like PewDiePie, or Penguinz0, and DisguisedToast?
You have the most meticulous and intrinsically logical of all descriptions (or articles) I have ever watched/read. I wish this description will serve as the basis of these types and not the stereotypical cool nerd vs typical nerd distinction I often see in the comments. I’ve also wondered before the basis on how each types were described and often find it unrealistic, I wonder how you get to these conclusions on the types cause its more sensical. I don’t really buy the stereotypes usually described on the articles and had almost wanted to read Jung’s book but I’m lazy so this is, in a sense, a time saver. Love your contents!
ENTPs are so interesting to me in that even an individual with 0 interest in other people can still be astonishingly socially adept. I've got a lot of respect for this type.
That's really great to hear! Usually people watch lots of these videos and it doesn't make that much of a difference so it's really cool to hear back from people when it does ~ Nathan
I really like your vision on the MBTI system. I was always a bit dismissive of personality tests, untill I did this rather short personality type test which had some really great points about how I interacted with the world. Really interesting that with this small amount of questions you can be this accurate, but at the same time, a personality/human life has so much more dimensions which you can never include in a test. If I can speak for my own situation. I had a traumatic experience following with long term sickness. This changed my way of behaving with the world to introverted. Now as I'm finally getting better my extraverted tendencies are coming back. Again, Great work Nathan. Keep sharing those thoughts, I'm really interested in how you look at these things.
That's great to hear. The online tests are unreliable for many reasons, the main one being that they're self-reported in nature. When you delve more deeply into the system it makes a lot more sense in my view ~ Nathan
Finally! Somebody who understands my disdain for picking favorites! I hate doing it. I usually have a pool of things I like, rather than pedestals of favorites. Constantly getting asked about my favorites, I finally came up with some answers just so I'd have something to say, but it doesn't feel right.
This one was pretty helpful in distinguishing which of the two I'm more likely to be, which is INTP. IIRC, the INTP/INTJ one leaves more space for ambivalence.
I look at these personality tests as more of a fun pass time to ponder about myself, although its interesting when you talk about extrovert and introvert not mattering quite as much. Out of curiosity I took the test for the third time last night (half a sleep mind you) and I got INTP. The interesting part is that in highschool I was INTP, but when I was in college I turned ENTP according to the test. I had more social situations where I had to be quite involved for several years. After that and things quieted down in my life, I guess I moved back into introversion. So I inference that that E and I factor may be subject to change throughout ones life. Not that other parts couldn't, but that seems like the most fluid one.
I appreciate the depth you went into here. Usually, I just hear things like "When you're not sure, you're an ENTP", because apparently INTPs are more introverted then most introverts. And I used to be, but I got sick of Ti-Si loops, and have learned to embrace Ne and Fe more. In certain social environments now, I don't get drained anymore. Supposedly types aren't suppose to change though, so I was very baffled. Your description made it quite clear that I'm really just an INTP that is becoming more social. Chaos is ultimately what drains me, in fact its that element of social interaction that forces me to leave and recharge, which is why I can talk one on one for hours now or get energized coming out of philosophy class. The issue isn't people, it's external stimuli. I So clearly I'm not an ENTP. Problem solved. Thanks for keeping it simple.
This happend to me exactly. I think your bad functions can grow as they do you merge into an XNTP later into mega type with Ti Ne Si Fe all equal. ESFJ ENTP INTP and ISFJ are all same but with different default modes...
@@multicrogamer Yeah, I could see that. Others are more shadow focused as well. I know an INTJ that is firmly on his way to being able to access Te, Ti, and Ne on near equal levels as his Ni. So I could see him becoming a sort of xNTx mega type.
I have a bit of both but lean towards Entp, Interesting. I love chaos and change in ever evolving theories, but I also love to much more dive into and distill and get the little details right. It's weird because I love it when a system is Ridgid, but sometimes I'll get a wonderlust to change things up a bit even if it's small.
If you are sure you are definitely one of these two types, but not sure which one, think about the Fe/Si. Do you feel your Si is pretty good but your Fe is annoying, etc? then you're intp. If you feel you are better with people, but less organized, etc, then you're entp.
Dude according to MBTI, that is impossible. You may have taken the 16 personalities test or is going by its guidelines. ENTP: Loves debate and exploration of ideas. Less interested in settling down into a fixed conclusion. INTP : Not really interested in debate but very interested in the exploration and more importantly codification of ideas in their head. More comfortable with settling into a fixed view regarding the functioning of the universe. Which do you relate with more is most probably your type. Of course there is more details involved but this is an important stepping stone to differentiate between the two types.
Yes you can score dead center or close to it. With every variable. And you dont stay I n on spot for your whole life. Extraversion introversion for example.
I am an INTP and my husband is an ENTP. I recommend every introvert to find the extrovert type of themselves. It's like talking to yourself all the time, like you share the same brain. Bonus: you can have the extrovert to run errands for you or any stuff that involves going outside and talking to people. lol
I'm not sure I would like that, but cheers to you for your happy marriage. My boyfriend is ENTP and I'm INFJ. I noticed that I always seem attracted to ENTPs and apparently they are a great match for INFJs too.
@@kc9364 I don’t like the devil’s advocate side of entp (like listening to bill Maher). It makes me second guess my own thoughts thus not wanting to share.
I think another good match for intp is istp. Intps can then think of ideas, tell their istp, and the istp will make it come to fruition in a logical way--just don't watch their process because an istp process drives an intp crazy and vice versa, but we come to the same conclusions so it works out in the end lol.
Ok, so I am probably an ENTP. Because my friend is an ISFJ and we are literally polar opposites. I also do enjoy chaos. I have been mistyped as an INTP a few times while I was trying to test the consistency of the MBIT tool and possibly debunk it. But it seems to be pretty accurate just by seeing people like you, really analyze the whole theory of these tests. I approve of this test and seems like a cool way to understand each other a little better.
I sit almost exactly between the two. Depending on my mood when I take the test, I get one result or the other. Both times I'm close to 50% on the E/I axis. I'm very firmly NTP, Asertive type, but the 'I' and the 'E' is usually a big '?' dependant entirely on how I'm feeling at the time.
How does this apply when you have mental/personality disorders? For example, I have autism, which makes me more inflexible to change and less likely to interact with others. But I find that I'm good at applying a skill from one field to another so I'm pretty sure I'm an ENTP
Yess, I don't have any confirmed disorders but I tend to worry a lot about possible harmful things. Like a thunder storm approaching or a wasp trying to make a nest in my house. This worrying or playing out all possible scenarios also fits some type descriptions in some ways and influences the outcome. I've been regarding it as normal anxiety while typing myself but I'm still wondering how these things impact mbti.
I'm an intp ( I think? [Based on points I mostly agree with on YT videos and internet research about cognitive functions and their relevance to me] but still confused if I'm an entp or infp, and still questioning this mbti classification, at the same time actually enjoying to hear the points about things that makes us humans, I'm so torn lmao 😭) However, unlike what you said about INTP being reliant on fixed systems, it actually triggers my anxiety to think about the concept of a fixed system - in humans (I find joy in living by witnessing the spontaneity that creates cuteness in human interactions). It makes me restless that there is a system for people and it might not excite me anymore if I get to understand it. So I'm watching videos like with this lingering anxiety). I found myself being comforted by the idea that phenomenon that involves humans and their behavior are something that cannot be fully systematized, bit by bit. Hence I calm myself by just telling myself that there are great amount of things left to be known and will never run out of things to discover as new things will emerge out of all the existing things. I go by this quote that says "life gets boring when you stay within the limits of what you already knew"(The exploration on the understanding of things and ideas in this material world) YET sometimes, I also go by this one as well, "Meaning makes a great many things endurable -perhaps everything" (Maybe this one gives me comfort when my Ti Ne suddenly gets hit by my Si and makes me overwhelmed) These 2 really give me a pat on the back. The concept that there is the unknown and the unexplored, that there's a lot of things to live for -to keep knowing, to keep on understanding ⊂(´・◡・⊂ )∘˚˳°
It's interesting. I was always determined as INTP. At the same time, I am pretty chaotic, my list of interests often shocks people, searching for cross-connections is my favorite thing, and all the best things that I did I did under the stress. But I am undoubtedly an introvert. Sometimes extremely. I always felt that there is no way that I can be an ENTP.
I think it's funny how similar are ENTPs and ESFJs when one is considered a ball of chaos and the other one is considered the one taking care of everyone
A coworker asked me what my favorite type of cheese was recently. My immediate and first response was "Oh my god that's terrible. Why would you even ask me something like that." This video gave me a flashback of that and made me laugh. INTP here!
Me quite literally being the hybrid. Tested INTP a year ago (51% introverted duh) and does really think deep, also turns everything into a math problem to solve, and obsessively observes patterns, but then after the inner "calculator" to solve these math problems were built, I start to favour chaos. I firmly believe I strive in chaos and I really like debating with other people as well. However I haven't gave up stability, and its really something I like a lot to this day. I feel like I put myself into chaos and I start to miss stability lol
If I/E is on a normal curve, which is undoubtedly true, most people are in the middle and would probably step between the two types at least occasionally. The issue is that when ENTPs see ENTP-typed celebrities or historical characters, they are comparing themselves to people who probably are a couple standard deviations above the mean on extraversion or intuition for that matter.
It has been getting confusing as i am INTP with high Ne. My Ne has developed massively in my 20s, I really like exploring new things and cross-pollinating ideas. I am aware I can sometimes lack foundation and my ideas come off as vague compared to other INTPs. But I still think Ti is my primary function. When I do not know well about something I use Ne, I rely on pattern recognition, but when I really get obsessed over something and wants to know everything about it, my Ti shines.
What happens to INTPs when confronted with inherently fluid frameworks, the kind which only work when chaos is included as part of the scenario? Do they implode, explode, spontaneously combust, immigrate, emigrate, collapse, or what? Do they ever learn from chaotic experiences, or is that outside of their experiential platform parameters?
I often think that I'm not a ENTP because I'm so scared to do again the test and don't get ENTP, I really feel so comfortable in this type but that fear (as a part of me see it) mean that I am afraid of change and I don't deserve be a Entp for that reason, but at the same time other part says: that's just one thing that doesn't matter. And my brain want to explote and its confused. PD: sorry if there are mistakes, English isn't my first language :D
The problem is that chaos excites me but then I get absolutely NOTHING done... or if i do this is accidentally and what I did to procrastinate (I only rly work on what I'm supposed to if there's not enough stimulation n so I need ANY intellectual challenge, so then I do the work). I am a bit more people-focused than the regular INTP but I do get exhausted and taking care of them is not healthy to me mentally. And I'm not as well spoken as the avg ENTP, I can stutter and get into meandering tangents, completely losing my listener, very often. Maybe that's just ENTP with mental illness, or a hypomanic INTP? Hell if I know. Though I am very good at lying and spotting weakness, maybe that is an ENTP trait. And I can't imagine not interacting with people for more than a day. I do get tired quick but I can't be completely alone. Can I somehow be an ambivert lmao.
I have a trick, everytime I'm asked what's my favorite that and that, I say something random. People get really confused and distance themselves from you if you don't have favorites. Everyone has favorites! Then they change their favorites. It's madness and random.. just like my fake favorites😂. It works like a charm and they don't suspect a thing.
idk what is chaos anyway ? Like in every day life ? Don't be organised ? Put things on fire ? Be messy ? Cause personally i like chaos but when it don't bothers me like not in my space unless I created it
This just made me more confused :( I'm definitely not an extrovert by any means, I don't like debating, I don't like chaos, I don't have any charisma, I like details, I don't need/desire people's presence but my Ne if definitely higher than my Ti, my Si is nonexistent and the one time in a blue moon where I engage in conversations I'm definitely more ESFJ than ISFJ. Am I just a very socially inept/awkward ENTP??
Because you're living on the premise of immortality. You were not consistently forced or, much better, motivated to do stuff in a limited period if time. Thus, you didn't automatize this constant evaluating of relevance to ones hierarchy of values and purpose that Ni people have (and you're unlikely to have a strong, vivid purpose).
why is that so true about the ENTPS, as an ENTP myself, I want or feel the desperation to socialize, but I really don't like "people" in general. that's why sometimes I come across as very introverted because I get bored talking to those who are less efficient than me.
Very interesting video. The only thing that bothers me or at least triggers my curiosity is you last point, about INTP-ISFJ and ENTP-ESFJ since ESFJ is said to be the subconscious mind of an INTP. I don't really know much about the subconscious and I know that the MBTI/Jungian/analytical psychology community often disagree with each other. But for those who consider the subconscious to be a thing, then an INTP behaving like an ESFJ in certain situations would be a normal thing and that would contrast to your explanation about INTP's vs ENTP's. What do you think?
Actually it might be because ISFJ-INTP are "behind-the-scenes" as their interaction style and ESFJ-ENTP are "get-things-going" as their interaction style. Nevertheless I also understand your point since ESFJ-INTP and ISFJ-ENTP have an analogous relationship with their respective dominant functions. I think that all types enters their "subconscious"("subconscious" since the cognitive functions in question are in the "EGO" ("self" in Latin) in other words still "awaken"(because the said function are just "flipped") in certain emotional states EXEMPLI•GRATIA; when a type choose to (for any reason (conscious or not (even though I'm not quite sure how can someone do that actively...))) use their inferior function (or (to have a)/(to be) on the "grip" of it). It's all about integration/self development my friend ;) !
Assuming you actually have both Ti (introverted thinking) and Ne (extroverted Intuition) as your dominant functions (which you probably don't, but whatever), it just comes down to the gap between those 2 functions and their opposite versions (so Extroverted Feeling/Fe and Introverted Sensing/Si). If you can conclude the gap between your Ne and Si is bigger than the gap between your Ti and Fe, then you're an ENTP (ENTP's Ti and Fe functions are relatively balanced). On the other hand, if the gap between your Ti and Fe is bigger than the gap between your Ne and Si (so your Ne and Si is more balanced), then you're an INTP. If you want an anecdote to latch on to, usually an INTP's life problems are centered around the relationship between themselves and the people around them, due to the imbalance between their Ti (self) and Fe (tribe). Prioritizing your identity (Ti), which in this case is based on reasons/logic over other people's values (Fe) would usually lead to some people hating you, obviously. On the other hand, an ENTP will have more problems with stuff/things (so things like deadline, conspiracy, freedom, or their unorganized closets) due to the imbalance between their Ne and Si. I mean, you can imagine that wanting to search for patterns all the time, but refusing to organize the facts/sensory first would lead to something not very good.
Interesting. I thought I am INTP but I struggled with the idea of having Ti as the top function. The ENTP type suits me much better. I was puzzled long time with my strong introversion. Perhaps I am just an introverted ENTP :)
I've been down that road. All TPs are introverted thinkers, so I honestly think that has something to do with it. I know I'm not an introvert though. Every time, the introverts with their introvert memes, like ugh, we get it, you can't talk. Stop wearing your non-participation trophy as some kind badge of honor because you make us uncomfortable with that shit too! LMAO not you just saying.
Same here, although this video has just confused me more. Sometimes I like chaos, sometimes I like having a reliable system. I guess I’m just stuck between the two types.
@@seventhsheaven everybody wants a reliable system. We like chaos because we are more in control while other people are thrown off by it. Like Bruce Lee said, be like water, you know. People like doing what they are good at. That's why you can have the ENTP who hates people but wants to be around them. It's fun because you're good at it... Even if they are completely boring.
I like how he acknowledges the fact that ENTPS aren't equally extraverted socially.

@@gunsmokegaloreyt6840 I feel ya

"Most introverted extrovert". I think it depends what makes sense to us logically and how developed our Fe is...
Or how much time we spend in our heads and observing the social atmosphere rather than interacting in it. As a home-schooled kid coming into high school, I was definitely much more of a quiet observer to begin with... and I also had better grades. But once I decided to start talking with classmates... Ne took the proverbial wheel.
Stimulating conversations! Playful banter! Bad grades!
The way I see it, and I think this would apply to other ENTPs and people in general, it's where your priorities lie. If you want to become more socially extroverted, outgoing and confident, you'll learn ways to and experiment a bit. I think experience is the main teacher with this one, just try using some Fe and see how it goes. Take mental notes, especially if you're one of them textbook argumentative types lol.
If you prioritise seeking truth, information, or just your own individual hobbies, then it makes sense you won't want to socialise as much and spend more time pursuing time alone. Nothing wrong with either, just a matter of opinion.
As an ENTP it gets rlly annoying in multiple choice, because I always have the counter argument to every answer, so I always take so much more time on them
Seriously! INTP here, but for me it's more that I can find different interpretations of the question that match up with several different answers. I had this great math class where we could define our own interpretations of the questions and then answer accordingly, and we were graded on the consistency between the two parts. I know that prof pretty well at this point, and I'm pretty sure he's also an INTP haha

@@Jasmin-sm7ce uP

@H G you might be ENTP. Its not a matter of social intra or extroversion. As an ENTP I don't fall into the social butterfly category but rather its a matter or intra or extroverted thinking. Do you like thinking within established logical frameworks or outside of established logical frameworks. Do you respect the established way of doing things and think from a default position of how can I work within this system to make it better or do you think from a position of fuck this system i wanted to break it apart and mould something better out of nothing (a bit extreme but you get the idea)
To put it in filmmaking terms. If you're trying to become a filmmaker and your first instinct is i want to work my way up to being the CEO of Warner Bros and make them the best studio on the planet you're more likely INTP if you're thinking is I want to create my own studio out of nothing and make it the best studio on the planet you're more likely ENTP. Either way there's good characteristics for both.
Ahahaha, you got me! Just glad the cops didn't...
But if they did, I suppose I could play the "colourblind" card, right? Does that apply to pedestrian crossing lights?
Jokes and traumatic past experiences aside, I do spend a little bit of time calculating the risks associated with breaking a rule, but usually no more than a few seconds... Like the light...
Obviously this will mean I gleam over some of the detail and accuracy that my introverted friend would more likely absorb, but hey, would they have had enough time to make it through that traffic light and over that exhilarating speed bump? We really need more speed-bumps with built in sounds when you go over them.
Overused analogy (and of course that's all it is lol), but I'm sure it was helpful.
It also depends on the circumstances. If it's one of those unspoken rules or social phenomena that the questioning of would be considered taboo, and as such there's no threat-level risk associated with it, I'll most likely just kick it in the guts and dump it in a trashcan like the artificial garbage it is.
Here's a shorter version: if you're a charming nerd, then you're an ENTP, if you're just a nerd, then INTP.

Ok.😃😃.
I think "shoot, aim, load" can be misunderstood as ENTP's tend to act before they think, and then learn from their actions. Which eliminates analysis paralysis. I don't know about others but as an ENTP i certainly do have analysis paralysis :|

This is the most accurate take on INTPs I’ve ever heard. I remember telling my mother that I would never get married, and was going to college for Computer Science, because computers are predictable, they make sense, and they have an answer - unlike humans.
Then I discovered typology and realized that there are concrete, scientifically justifiable explanations for human behavior and it was mind blowing to me. I’ve been deeply studying this ever since.
I’ve almost gotten to the point where I can have functional relationships and mutually enjoyable conversations with my siblings. Still aspiring to achieve that. Wish me luck.

Based on this video alone, I think I've been mistyped as INTP for years where I may actually be an ENTP. Just the fact of not wanting to commit to anything is quite meta on my experience of not wanting to settle on INTP. To expand on that, I'd rather do nothing at all than to commit to some task or obligation that takes away my time over the long term - it's all about maintaining the potential to be able to explore and try new things.
I hear you. I really didn't want to settle on ENTP., but I know I have to because it's true.
This resonates so much with me, like I want to do so many things, I am fascinated by mostly everything I see lol but the thought of commitment to just one of them makes me want to give up altogether. It's kind of frustrating how everything is connected and our lives are too short to actually understand all of everything
@@Livingbeing01my actual thoughts
Entp if you really love people. Intp if you love people, theoretically.
For the INTP, it depends on if they've put effort into developing they're inferior function or not.
Hopefully someone will reply. For INTP, do you mean "I don't feel the love, but In my head/soul I know I do" kinda thing?
I see, i don't understand.
No NT type would really "love" people just randomly like that
i.e. theoretically and abstractly, but no _actual_ people in your life.
I feel like I can relate to both aspects of ENTP and INTP. I’ve taken over 6 different variations of tests over an interval gap of 3-5 days atleast 30 times now, and frequently fluctuate between INTP or ENTP. All cognitive functions tests and I only go for the most “accurate” tests. In all my tests, my Ti and Ne are almost always EQUAL…. And my Fe is only slightly higher than my Si with my Se being weakest. Though I resonate with a lot of INTP I also resonate a lot with ENTP characteristics… especially with being able to socialize and connect with people. I am very much capable of that and have been since I was in high school, I just willingly choose to distance myself from people because I find them annoying. I also think primarily through a logical lens, and don’t really make decisions based on personal values… which I don’t really have many personal values now that I think about it. I am very understanding and always argue both sides of an argument. I like understanding things in depth, however, and love to learn for the sake of learning. Ultimately, I’m left unsure of what type I truly am
In the socionics system, INTPs have what is known as "blindspot Se" meaning that it's technically their worst function. It's also referred to as the polr function. There is a video somewhere on the channel titled something like "16 types worst function". It might be worth checking that one out and seeing which worst function is most applicable to you. That can really help you narrow down your type when you're stuck between two of them ~ Nathan
@@lovewho I’ll definitely check it out, much appreciated 🙏🏽
Look up and understand the concepts of 1st and 3rd function looping, being in the grip of your inferior function, demon functions, and your blind spot/worst function (which surprisingly isn't your demon function).
Your weaknesses will show you the answer when your preferences won't.
INTP's tend to be the most introverted of the introverts (only close match is INTJ's) and also tend to be the most "absent minded" and will often get called out by their friends and peers when they zone out and everyone else in conversing. Why? Because our function loop is Ti and Si, so since Ti requires introverted thinking we will get sucked into thinking about something that's happened in the past (Si) or a problem that needs solving, and will have a blank look on our face like we're high or a yogi in mahasamadhi.
ENTP's loop is different; it's Ne looping with Fe. Here's a good explanation I found for them:
When ENTPs get in a loop, they chase after ideas but they're also easily swayed by outside opinion. They get stuck in idea-generation and buzz from the people around them without accepting input from their thinking side
I'm (I think) an INTP, but I really resonated with the "can't pick a favorite book/song/movie" from the ENTP. My theory behind this is that INTPs like consistency and unchanging systems, and there are always new movies and songs coming out. I do have favorites when it comes to things like colors and foods, because those are the types of things that don't change. Great vid as usual!
Exactly. It irritates me when they use "favorites" as security questions. Other than something like color, how could anyone possibly narrow down a favorite? And it could always change. I'd never be able to remember what I used.
Honestly, even as an INTP, I kinda love chaos. except in important things like work, that is strussful. However, I love chaos because it gives me new things to look at and figure out. Its a very INTP way to look at it but honestly chaos provides something new. I love figuring things out.
Samesies keeps things interesting

Of course, you can. Every type can do what every type can to a varying degree.

I used to strongly identify as INTP abut after watching this I might be ENTP, what made me think this was the chaos part. I love chaos and when something new happens, even if it’s bad. Like if one of my family members got arrested I would just be so intrigued rather than worried because usually the same shit happens everyday, so when something new happens I always get excited and happy, even though I usually don’t have the balls to actually make something different happen. Also I identify as an ambivert, because in most situations I keep quiet if I’m in a place or group with a lot of people, but I enjoy coming up to individual people who I find interesting to talk to. So I might be ENTP
wow, I really agree with you, I think I would behave the same way!
I relate to that, and I’m definitely an INTP. I’m also very chaotic in group situations, and yes, I do approach people I find interesting. I think INTPs love chaos to a point too-they like routine daily life with a sprinkle of chaos in between. For ex, if something dramatic happens every day, we’ll get annoyed. I think ENTPs are more likely to enjoy that sort of chaos daily. I really like world shaking stuff happening and it really makes me sit up and go enthusiastic, but if that happens daily, I think I’ll be annoyed and won’t even care anymore.

"As soon as they put their flag down somewhere, their brain will instantly play devil's advocate to themselves". The accuracy of this is uncanny, as an ENTP it can be downright terrifying to be so attached to something or someone. It's as if it goes against my own nature because suddenly my mind shifts into focusing on the benefits of the next new or shiny thing.
I'm intp and I'm always playing devils advocate with myself, but I think it is for the ends, not the means. I want to make sure I'm correct in my thinking and not just being biased with an opinion.
@@SpijkerMark oh yeah I'm definitely not surprised by that, knowing that ENTPs and INTPs have the same cognitive functions that just differ in dominance.

@@lishayost144 I can say as an ENTP that it is the same case here. For me though, this whole inner dialogue process always happens to pursue more possibilities. In other words, I learn things in order to find an opportunity to link them with something else, which often times makes me ignore the details of the specific topic being searched. I may be wrong in my assumption, but I think that INTPs are willing to zero-in and focus on the details and processes of a subject much more than ENTPs. I have always realized the willingness of my INTP friends to break down the entire topic piece by piece to understand everything about it.

INTP vs ISFJ is a really interesting dynamic for you to mention. While INTPs are so different from me in many ways, I often find myself relating to them.
God, ENTP makes so much sense!
I've genuinely been angry with exam feedback because I do psychology and you need such specific things in your answers. Heck, wording things slightly wrong can turn your potential A grade into an F. Misunderstand a question a bit so you mention stuff which is slightly what isn't being asked for? You clearly know nothing about psychology.
Like, "Explain how the psychodynamic approach explains personality".
There are multiple psychodynamic theories which explain personality in my course. So I assume I have to broadly talk about all of them.
Well, no. The question was secretly asking for a detailed (ew) explanation on one single theory. But you have to guess what that theory is.
So, I accidentally showed more knowledge than I was supposed to, and got no marks for my answer. Great. :)
And yes, screw feeling comfortable on choosing your values instead of changing like the weather.
Ohh, wait untill you realise 80% of psychology "science" is nothing but bulshit and only roughly 20% makes some sense.😂
Most tests are designed to have cherry picked answers to begin with.
If you can't be predictable with how you respond by the groaning lectures and show uniquely seperate understandings of the topic, it'll be unmarked.
The world revolves around simple answers and conclusions because most people don't care about the nuances.
For teachers it's easier for them to lecture than actually teach. Most teachers are just over glorified preachers.
I am INTP but I exactly know what you mean. All this possibilities of interpretations in such short time.
Its true ... as an ENTP I heavilly dislike it when i am asked "What is your favourite X ?"
I dont have a favourite in anything... i dont understand how people can even have a "favourite" something ,it feels too limiting... and usually i have a lot of "things" that I like in "X" category ... and also a lot of things i dislike in it... usually i can explain the reasons why i like or dislike them
Just being asked "whats is your favourite X" is not enough to make me anrgy , but if you fail to understand my way of thinking and are unwilling to listen to my explanation as to what my way of thinking actually is , I will get annoyed
i think i’m in a intp and same i like a little of everything and if i saw something is my favorite in a few days it won’t be anymore like i say black is my favorite color cuz it just goes with everything
INTP here and I have the same issue. I love too many things to have a favorite. It's like I'll say one thing is my favorite then my mind starts thinking of all the other things I like and then they're all my favorites.
INFJ with the same issue
Many people find it insane to have ONE favourite [whatever] in a major area of interest.
As an INFJ with an ENTP roommate, this guy is insane. He's clumsy as hell, doesn't have any boundaries and pure chaos is the best way i can describe him.
However, i also understand him deeply, his struggles. After I decided i was gonna try to embrace how he was like instead of getting pissed off silently, I could see how similar we are.
Both of us being intuition doms with Fe/Ti in the middle, we actually share a lot of traits. I understand the ENTPs difficulty with Fi, deeper relationships with other people, their organization and choices in life.
They're great people, but same as my experience as an INFJ, have a huge road of learning and gathering experiences to cross

lol this reads as very INTP-ish (though of course that's not enough to type-- I just find it funny that these are pretty much my same thoughts about myself, but in reverse as I'm an INTP who comes across as pretty ENTP-ish when around other people). INTPs are also notoriously indecisive, and it's pretty common for INTPs to doubt their type, too.
Leanne Miron I also identify with the “detective” and “explorer” type. I don’t know if it matters that much... 😂
I know I do reach a limit with detail, if I determine/assume that further details are just, well... details. I can fall down a critical spiral if I’m working on something unto exhaustion, and then upon returning to the job find it as close to perfect as possible.
I’m pretty extroverted when I’m comfortable with people, or when performing on stage. I hate giving or taking orders.
I'm entp and "going in depths" in a research/topic just pisses me off. In fact, I can't even focus :D. Only interested in the essence, the ideas, pros and cons and please someone, do the research instead of me 😄, I always appreciate it very much since it would pain me to half-death
But the thing is i really vibed with the wanting to know to know and liking personality tests because i want to fit into one of the labels. But on the other hand i cant really decide...
I thought I was ENTP but I’m actually INTP. I do like people but I really want a system and not unpredictable and dislike it when people make annoying decisions. It is true the older I get feel more structured and organized
I'm apparently an INTP that can be extremely ENTP at times. Which sort of makes sense, looking back on my life. I often wanted order, parameters- but not always the same kind. And, I often considered it as the base to jump from and land back on later.
not INTP
I am a true XNTP: I literally used to work all day as a software engineer and then on Tuesday nights perform stand-up comedy at a local club! I was equally comfortable doing both, but I was more consistently proficient doing the geek stuff. Sort of…most of the time…
I do like some pressure in my environment. It helps me to process the logical conclusion faster, not meandering endlessly. I see pressure not being the same as chaos. Pressure is more a time crunch than disarray.

idek what they mean by chaos
this is all bs.. intps aren’t a more ‘rigid’ version of entp but a more deep one
entps focus on bouncing their ideas off of people, and getting others’ reactions to them
they want others to praise them for being so called creative, and therefore try snd say anything interesting that comes to mind
however, once this thing/thought has been said, they simply move on to the next, hence their extraversion-
who mainly wants to share with others, not always going very deep and being much more surface level in where the thoughts came from
intps think more about their own personal ideas and creations, all branching off from the crazy thing of a brain within their heads
long term projects, acquiring skills, mastering or being the absolute best at something is more interesting to them, since they value these things internally, and aren’t focused on what other people think
they would never want others to ruin their beautiful, inner world, and thus would rather think more freely to themselves in secret, hence the introversion
their dreams in life are theirs
intps impress people without constantly trying to
It seems to me that the type of personality can change according to the mood. Like what kind of cognitive functions are there? For entp and intp, they are the same, only they stand in a different sequence. So what prevents a intp who has had a good night's sleep on a day off, who has cleaned his teeth and washed his head since morning, who has eaten normally and is fastidious, who has understood the importance of human relationships in our biological form of social beings, from simply taking and...
*bang*
turn into an entp.
After all, the 16 personality types of Maers-Briggs are just a theory based on how people behave in a given situation. Extrovert/introvert, sensory/intuitive, thinking/feeling, planning/adapting - all this is variable. Yes, someone likes to communicate more, someone less. Someone plans more, someone less. This is what the personality type is built on. But all this is so relative that sometimes it ceases to make sense.
In general, to all Maers-briggs fanatics who cannot stop typing everything in a row, I will give advice: "pay attention not to one of the specific 16 personality types, but to one of 4: I forgot what the names are, in short, purple, green, blue and yellow." Because the types of personalities within these four differ so little and depend on such relative and variable things that it's just silly to try to meticulously pinpoint one of the sixteen.
(changed) I am an analitic who has tried to define my personality type unambiguously. And sorry for google translate.
As an ENTP I see INTP as terrific teachers on every subject. I just love listening to them, even when they get into details. I will use their details to connect the dots and connect it with other subjects.
I love to get into depth of certain topics but I never really get stuck on it I like to explore things deeply what’s considered more INTP but I also never stop improving or developing my thought process about a certain topic but that doesn’t mean that I’m only interested on scratching the surface actually it’s the opposite through the development I feel like I can get a deeper understanding of a topic -ENTP
It's so refreshing to hear someone that understands just because you are an extremely introverted ENTP doesn't mean you aren't one or you were mistyped. I am strongly ENTP,but I'm extremely introverted and although the idea of people is very appealing actually being with them is like pulling the plug on my energy reserve. I'm drained within minutes. Kind of like buying a food that looks good in the store and then you eat it and it's disgusting. People look good,but they aren't good for me. ENTPs aren't all social butterflies,but that doesn't make us less ENTP.
I'm an ENTP 9w1 with fairly balanced cognitive traits. I always mistyped as a INTP yet I am not. At times I may act introverted, whenever I feel like socializing I have no problem talking to people. This depends on the person or group's vibe.

You have the most meticulous and intrinsically logical of all descriptions (or articles) I have ever watched/read. I wish this description will serve as the basis of these types and not the stereotypical cool nerd vs typical nerd distinction I often see in the comments.
I’ve also wondered before the basis on how each types were described and often find it unrealistic, I wonder how you get to these conclusions on the types cause its more sensical. I don’t really buy the stereotypes usually described on the articles and had almost wanted to read Jung’s book but I’m lazy so this is, in a sense, a time saver.
Love your contents!
ENTPs are so interesting to me in that even an individual with 0 interest in other people can still be astonishingly socially adept. I've got a lot of respect for this type.
I’m INTP to the core and more “socially adept” than anyone. Also have zero desire to be. Because it’s basically method acting and gets exhausting.
Thanks man, i spent over half an year trying to figure this shit out and you nailed it for me. I can rest into my introvertity in peace thanks to you
That's really great to hear! Usually people watch lots of these videos and it doesn't make that much of a difference so it's really cool to hear back from people when it does ~ Nathan
I really like your vision on the MBTI system. I was always a bit dismissive of personality tests, untill I did this rather short personality type test which had some really great points about how I interacted with the world. Really interesting that with this small amount of questions you can be this accurate, but at the same time, a personality/human life has so much more dimensions which you can never include in a test.
If I can speak for my own situation. I had a traumatic experience following with long term sickness. This changed my way of behaving with the world to introverted. Now as I'm finally getting better my extraverted tendencies are coming back.
Again, Great work Nathan. Keep sharing those thoughts, I'm really interested in how you look at these things.
That's great to hear. The online tests are unreliable for many reasons, the main one being that they're self-reported in nature. When you delve more deeply into the system it makes a lot more sense in my view ~ Nathan
Finally! Somebody who understands my disdain for picking favorites! I hate doing it.

This one was pretty helpful in distinguishing which of the two I'm more likely to be, which is INTP. IIRC, the INTP/INTJ one leaves more space for ambivalence.
INTP confirmed.
And yes, I do love seeing videos about my type. How kind of you to provide another.
I look at these personality tests as more of a fun pass time to ponder about myself, although its interesting when you talk about extrovert and introvert not mattering quite as much. Out of curiosity I took the test for the third time last night (half a sleep mind you) and I got INTP. The interesting part is that in highschool I was INTP, but when I was in college I turned ENTP according to the test. I had more social situations where I had to be quite involved for several years. After that and things quieted down in my life, I guess I moved back into introversion. So I inference that that E and I factor may be subject to change throughout ones life. Not that other parts couldn't, but that seems like the most fluid one.
I appreciate the depth you went into here. Usually, I just hear things like "When you're not sure, you're an ENTP", because apparently INTPs are more introverted then most introverts. And I used to be, but I got sick of Ti-Si loops, and have learned to embrace Ne and Fe more. In certain social environments now, I don't get drained anymore. Supposedly types aren't suppose to change though, so I was very baffled.
Your description made it quite clear that I'm really just an INTP that is becoming more social. Chaos is ultimately what drains me, in fact its that element of social interaction that forces me to leave and recharge, which is why I can talk one on one for hours now or get energized coming out of philosophy class. The issue isn't people, it's external stimuli. I So clearly I'm not an ENTP. Problem solved. Thanks for keeping it simple.
This happend to me exactly.
I think your bad functions can grow as they do you merge into an XNTP later into mega type with Ti Ne Si Fe all equal. ESFJ ENTP INTP and ISFJ are all same but with different default modes...
@@multicrogamer Yeah, I could see that. Others are more shadow focused as well. I know an INTJ that is firmly on his way to being able to access Te, Ti, and Ne on near equal levels as his Ni. So I could see him becoming a sort of xNTx mega type.
I have a bit of both but lean towards Entp,
Interesting.
I love chaos and change in ever evolving theories, but I also love to much more dive into and distill and get the little details right.
It's weird because I love it when a system is Ridgid, but sometimes I'll get a wonderlust to change things up a bit even if it's small.
If you are sure you are definitely one of these two types, but not sure which one, think about the Fe/Si. Do you feel your Si is pretty good but your Fe is annoying, etc? then you're intp. If you feel you are better with people, but less organized, etc, then you're entp.
I love the xNTP fanservice...
I’ve always thought that I’m an INFP or an ENFP but today I have realized that I’m actually an ENTP - in my well protected shell. Like, wow…
It’s hilarious because I’m dead on in between I&ENTP. It just depends whether I enjoy that subject and what mood I’m in that day xD
Sounds to me your an intp because when intp seam more exstraverted the more they are enjoying something
Dude according to MBTI, that is impossible. You may have taken the 16 personalities test or is going by its guidelines.
ENTP: Loves debate and exploration of ideas. Less interested in settling down into a fixed conclusion.
INTP : Not really interested in debate but very interested in the exploration and more importantly codification of ideas in their head. More comfortable with settling into a fixed view regarding the functioning of the universe.
Which do you relate with more is most probably your type. Of course there is more details involved but this is an important stepping stone to differentiate between the two types.
sounds like an INTP
Yes you can score dead center or close to it. With every variable. And you dont stay I n on spot for your whole life.
Extraversion introversion for example.
Observe how you recharge your Social Energy, That's the core of Introvert and Extravert after all
I am an INTP and my husband is an ENTP.
I recommend every introvert to find the extrovert type of themselves. It's like talking to yourself all the time, like you share the same brain.
Bonus: you can have the extrovert to run errands for you or any stuff that involves going outside and talking to people. lol
Wow I'm surprised that works out so well. I dated an ENTP briefly and he was all the annoying things I don't like about myself but amplified!
I'm not sure I would like that, but cheers to you for your happy marriage. My boyfriend is ENTP and I'm INFJ. I noticed that I always seem attracted to ENTPs and apparently they are a great match for INFJs too.
@@kc9364 lol I think I would be annoyed too
@@kc9364 I don’t like the devil’s advocate side of entp (like listening to bill Maher). It makes me second guess my own thoughts thus not wanting to share.
I think another good match for intp is istp. Intps can then think of ideas, tell their istp, and the istp will make it come to fruition in a logical way--just don't watch their process because an istp process drives an intp crazy and vice versa, but we come to the same conclusions so it works out in the end lol.
Ok, so I am probably an ENTP. Because my friend is an ISFJ and we are literally polar opposites. I also do enjoy chaos. I have been mistyped as an INTP a few times while I was trying to test the consistency of the MBIT tool and possibly debunk it. But it seems to be pretty accurate just by seeing people like you, really analyze the whole theory of these tests. I approve of this test and seems like a cool way to understand each other a little better.
I sit almost exactly between the two. Depending on my mood when I take the test, I get one result or the other. Both times I'm close to 50% on the E/I axis.
I'm very firmly NTP, Asertive type, but the 'I' and the 'E' is usually a big '?' dependant entirely on how I'm feeling at the time.
How does this apply when you have mental/personality disorders? For example, I have autism, which makes me more inflexible to change and less likely to interact with others. But I find that I'm good at applying a skill from one field to another so I'm pretty sure I'm an ENTP
Yeahhh I was wondering thissss
Yess, I don't have any confirmed disorders but I tend to worry a lot about possible harmful things. Like a thunder storm approaching or a wasp trying to make a nest in my house. This worrying or playing out all possible scenarios also fits some type descriptions in some ways and influences the outcome. I've been regarding it as normal anxiety while typing myself but I'm still wondering how these things impact mbti.
Can you recognize others' emotions? If yes, you're *not* autistic, you were just neglected and left by yourself too much.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 are you actually stupid? Genuinely wondering your age rn because I have an actual diagnosis for autism
I'm an intp ( I think? [Based on points I mostly agree with on YT videos and internet research about cognitive functions and their relevance to me] but still confused if I'm an entp or infp, and still questioning this mbti classification, at the same time actually enjoying to hear the points about things that makes us humans, I'm so torn lmao 😭) However, unlike what you said about INTP being reliant on fixed systems, it actually triggers my anxiety to think about the concept of a fixed system - in humans (I find joy in living by witnessing the spontaneity that creates cuteness in human interactions). It makes me restless that there is a system for people and it might not excite me anymore if I get to understand it. So I'm watching videos like with this lingering anxiety). I found myself being comforted by the idea that phenomenon that involves humans and their behavior are something that cannot be fully systematized, bit by bit. Hence I calm myself by just telling myself that there are great amount of things left to be known and will never run out of things to discover as new things will emerge out of all the existing things. I go by this quote that says "life gets boring when you stay within the limits of what you already knew"(The exploration on the understanding of things and ideas in this material world) YET sometimes, I also go by this one as well, "Meaning makes a great many things endurable -perhaps everything" (Maybe this one gives me comfort when my Ti Ne suddenly gets hit by my Si and makes me overwhelmed) These 2 really give me a pat on the back. The concept that there is the unknown and the unexplored, that there's a lot of things to live for -to keep knowing, to keep on understanding ⊂(´・◡・⊂ )∘˚˳°
It's interesting. I was always determined as INTP. At the same time, I am pretty chaotic, my list of interests often shocks people, searching for cross-connections is my favorite thing, and all the best things that I did I did under the stress. But I am undoubtedly an introvert. Sometimes extremely. I always felt that there is no way that I can be an ENTP.
entp itself is an ambivert tho
I think people mostly don't mind being the best in the room at their dominant function...
Well, duh - they VALUE it the most! That's why they use it more than anything else.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 yes, we can at least hope, unless they're in a very dark place, that they will be happy to freely be themselves with much joy
I think it's funny how similar are ENTPs and ESFJs when one is considered a ball of chaos and the other one is considered the one taking care of everyone
A coworker asked me what my favorite type of cheese was recently. My immediate and first response was "Oh my god that's terrible. Why would you even ask me something like that." This video gave me a flashback of that and made me laugh. INTP here!
Me quite literally being the hybrid. Tested INTP a year ago (51% introverted duh) and does really think deep, also turns everything into a math problem to solve, and obsessively observes patterns, but then after the inner "calculator" to solve these math problems were built, I start to favour chaos. I firmly believe I strive in chaos and I really like debating with other people as well. However I haven't gave up stability, and its really something I like a lot to this day. I feel like I put myself into chaos and I start to miss stability lol
If I/E is on a normal curve, which is undoubtedly true, most people are in the middle and would probably step between the two types at least occasionally. The issue is that when ENTPs see ENTP-typed celebrities or historical characters, they are comparing themselves to people who probably are a couple standard deviations above the mean on extraversion or intuition for that matter.
It has been getting confusing as i am INTP with high Ne. My Ne has developed massively in my 20s, I really like exploring new things and cross-pollinating ideas. I am aware I can sometimes lack foundation and my ideas come off as vague compared to other INTPs. But I still think Ti is my primary function. When I do not know well about something I use Ne, I rely on pattern recognition, but when I really get obsessed over something and wants to know everything about it, my Ti shines.
I’ll never know what I am
What happens to INTPs when confronted with inherently fluid frameworks, the kind which only work when chaos is included as part of the scenario? Do they implode, explode, spontaneously combust, immigrate, emigrate, collapse, or what? Do they ever learn from chaotic experiences, or is that outside of their experiential platform parameters?
"The need to be around people but dont really like them" I feel attacked 😅
Immediately on topic informative and a good voice. I'm subscribing
I often think that I'm not a ENTP because I'm so scared to do again the test and don't get ENTP, I really feel so comfortable in this type but that fear (as a part of me see it) mean that I am afraid of change and I don't deserve be a Entp for that reason, but at the same time other part says: that's just one thing that doesn't matter. And my brain want to explote and its confused.
PD: sorry if there are mistakes, English isn't my first language :D
The problem is that chaos excites me but then I get absolutely NOTHING done... or if i do this is accidentally and what I did to procrastinate (I only rly work on what I'm supposed to if there's not enough stimulation n so I need ANY intellectual challenge, so then I do the work). I am a bit more people-focused than the regular INTP but I do get exhausted and taking care of them is not healthy to me mentally. And I'm not as well spoken as the avg ENTP, I can stutter and get into meandering tangents, completely losing my listener, very often. Maybe that's just ENTP with mental illness, or a hypomanic INTP? Hell if I know. Though I am very good at lying and spotting weakness, maybe that is an ENTP trait. And I can't imagine not interacting with people for more than a day. I do get tired quick but I can't be completely alone. Can I somehow be an ambivert lmao.
I have a trick, everytime I'm asked what's my favorite that and that, I say something random. People get really confused and distance themselves from you if you don't have favorites. Everyone has favorites! Then they change their favorites. It's madness and random.. just like my fake favorites😂. It works like a charm and they don't suspect a thing.
I'm always like: i like this and this because this and that. Why do you like your thing?
And then people start panicking xD
Knowing that i can get stuff done quite a bit(not so much really) i can say that i am truely an INTP but ENTP does seem quite close
Watched this video the second time on 0.75x speed to understand more in detail. INTP, confirmed.
(Until another video which plants a doubt)
I'm watching it x2 entp
idk what is chaos anyway ? Like in every day life ? Don't be organised ? Put things on fire ? Be messy ? Cause personally i like chaos but when it don't bothers me like not in my space unless I created it
This just made me more confused :( I'm definitely not an extrovert by any means, I don't like debating, I don't like chaos, I don't have any charisma, I like details, I don't need/desire people's presence but my Ne if definitely higher than my Ti, my Si is nonexistent and the one time in a blue moon where I engage in conversations I'm definitely more ESFJ than ISFJ. Am I just a very socially inept/awkward ENTP??

Because you're living on the premise of immortality.
You were not consistently forced or, much better, motivated to do stuff in a limited period if time. Thus, you didn't automatize this constant evaluating of relevance to ones hierarchy of values and purpose that Ni people have (and you're unlikely to have a strong, vivid purpose).

why is that so true about the ENTPS, as an ENTP myself, I want or feel the desperation to socialize, but I really don't like "people" in general. that's why sometimes I come across as very introverted because I get bored talking to those who are less efficient than me.
hi im an infp and just wanted to say i freaking love this channel
Thank you for that long video :)
Very useful!
Cheers
Very interesting video. The only thing that bothers me or at least triggers my curiosity is you last point, about INTP-ISFJ and ENTP-ESFJ since ESFJ is said to be the subconscious mind of an INTP. I don't really know much about the subconscious and I know that the MBTI/Jungian/analytical psychology community often disagree with each other. But for those who consider the subconscious to be a thing, then an INTP behaving like an ESFJ in certain situations would be a normal thing and that would contrast to your explanation about INTP's vs ENTP's. What do you think?
I think it is about balancing weakest functions and then it creates the shadow one.
Actually it might be because ISFJ-INTP are "behind-the-scenes" as their interaction style and ESFJ-ENTP are "get-things-going" as their interaction style. Nevertheless I also understand your point since ESFJ-INTP and ISFJ-ENTP have an analogous relationship with their respective dominant functions. I think that all types enters their "subconscious"("subconscious" since the cognitive functions in question are in the "EGO" ("self" in Latin) in other words still "awaken"(because the said function are just "flipped") in certain emotional states EXEMPLI•GRATIA; when a type choose to (for any reason (conscious or not (even though I'm not quite sure how can someone do that actively...))) use their inferior function (or (to have a)/(to be) on the "grip" of it). It's all about integration/self development my friend ;) !
Assuming you actually have both Ti (introverted thinking) and Ne (extroverted Intuition) as your dominant functions (which you probably don't, but whatever), it just comes down to the gap between those 2 functions and their opposite versions (so Extroverted Feeling/Fe and Introverted Sensing/Si). If you can conclude the gap between your Ne and Si is bigger than the gap between your Ti and Fe, then you're an ENTP (ENTP's Ti and Fe functions are relatively balanced). On the other hand, if the gap between your Ti and Fe is bigger than the gap between your Ne and Si (so your Ne and Si is more balanced), then you're an INTP.
If you want an anecdote to latch on to, usually an INTP's life problems are centered around the relationship between themselves and the people around them, due to the imbalance between their Ti (self) and Fe (tribe). Prioritizing your identity (Ti), which in this case is based on reasons/logic over other people's values (Fe) would usually lead to some people hating you, obviously. On the other hand, an ENTP will have more problems with stuff/things (so things like deadline, conspiracy, freedom, or their unorganized closets) due to the imbalance between their Ne and Si. I mean, you can imagine that wanting to search for patterns all the time, but refusing to organize the facts/sensory first would lead to something not very good.
Im an INTP and i send my ENTP friend that "Crackhead Sociopath" ENTP meme without knowing he was one lmao
Interesting. I thought I am INTP but I struggled with the idea of having Ti as the top function. The ENTP type suits me much better. I was puzzled long time with my strong introversion. Perhaps I am just an introverted ENTP :)
ENTPs are the most introverted of the extroverted types
I've been down that road. All TPs are introverted thinkers, so I honestly think that has something to do with it. I know I'm not an introvert though. Every time, the introverts with their introvert memes, like ugh, we get it, you can't talk. Stop wearing your non-participation trophy as some kind badge of honor because you make us uncomfortable with that shit too! LMAO not you just saying.
Same here, although this video has just confused me more. Sometimes I like chaos, sometimes I like having a reliable system. I guess I’m just stuck between the two types.
@@seventhsheaven everybody wants a reliable system. We like chaos because we are more in control while other people are thrown off by it. Like Bruce Lee said, be like water, you know. People like doing what they are good at. That's why you can have the ENTP who hates people but wants to be around them. It's fun because you're good at it... Even if they are completely boring.
@@DrDeathpwnsu the words I’ve looked for all my life😇
I did the test two times, one alone and one with friends, the time I was alone I got INTP, and the time I was with friends ENTP
I did the test once , ENTP . It was like I wrote it all myself .
Redid test sometime later in life.
