Well, the test at 16personalities is very excluding to explorers or artisans. As you can see in many of the descriptions, "Explorers" are said to be creative AND practical, and questions like "You see yourself as more practical than creative" creates false answers because of this.
ISFPs can easily mistest as INFPs on 16personalities. "You see yourself as a dreamer" is a question an ISFP and an INFP would agree to, yet disagree is the option that makes you more sensor. A lot of the people I know who took the test at 16personalities and got an "Explorer" type have most likely mistyped, and feel they did not get the right result.
I think you're an ISFP. However, this is just a thought. I would advise you to learn the cognitive functions and take several tests to learn better. The Research Test at Truity.com is good, and celebritytypes.com have several tests too.
Some of the key-differences between INFPs and ISFPs:
* INFPs may overlook the details, while ISFPs are very perceptive and patient with details.
* INFPs are good with language, whereas ISFPs like to keep their language in simple terms.
* INFPs are more serious, whereas ISFPs are more easygoing.
* INFPs love to discuss ideas, while ISFPs would rather do something than just talk.
* INFPs focus on what could be, ISFPs focus on what is.
* INFPs are more poetic, ISFPs are more aesthetic.
* INFPs are live mostly in the future, but also in the past, while ISFPs live in the moment.
* INFPs are usually more organized than ISFPs.
