I didn't make this one, and if it's been posted already which I'm aware it may have been, I understand if this gets deleted. I'm posting on the off chance that it hasn't been, as I only found it just recently on my own.

Enneagram Test - Tritype with Wings

Someone told me the answers they allow you to select from make it too obvious which type they're associating each answer with, so it's too easy to fudge this thing. I didn't really have this issue due to how specific the answers were/I found I was able to distinguish which ones sounded most like me regardless of me knowing which type they were referencing. But if this isn't the case for you, I'd love to get your input.

I just want to see if your results match what you've already typed yourself as. Or, if you haven't typed yourself yet, if you feel like the tritype you're given matches who you are. For those who don't know, there are tritype (also known as archetype) descriptions online. For example, the test gave me 6w7-2w1-1w2. So I looked up "621 archetype" and found my description. You can also go here and search for yours amongst all of the pages if you feel like looking: https://www.personalitycafe.com/enn...enneagram-personality-theory-forum/73452-27-tritype-archetype-descriptions.html

I remember doing that test and i usually get 3-1-6 which is wrong ( i am 6-4-9/1). Problem with this and other tritype tests, is they made basic mistake testing for Extroverted Thinking from Jungian Typologies instead of actual enneagram 3.

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram
Tritype
is: 2-1-5
and your likely Enneagram Tritype with wings is: 2w1-1w2-5w6

Your overall type preference is:
type 2
(2w1) first,
type 1
(1w2) second,
and
type 5
(5w6) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 1 (1w2)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 2 (2w1)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w6)


I knew I was going to get 5 for my head type based on the answers I picked but I think I'm a 6 and used to mistype as one. I'm 90% sure I'm a 2w1 first with 1 in my tritype. Most people type me as 216 but I generally type myself as 261. Maybe I need to look back into tritype. Like Elwinz said, it's likely I type as 5 because I'm improving my Ti, whereas type 6 is generally associated with Si.

For reference: I type myself as 6w7 2w3 9w1.

Test gave me 6w7 2w3 1w2.

The answers seemed obvious if you already know about the theory, but I'm pretty good about answering honestly and not just choosing "my type's" answer. I get how the test is calculating the result, but it really needs to be longer in order to improve its overall accuracy.

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram Tritype is: 5-8-3
and your likely Enneagram Tritype with wings is: 5w6-8w9-3w4

Your overall type preference is:
type 5 (5w6) first,
type 8 (8w9) second,
and type 3 (3w4) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 8 (8w9)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 3 (3w4)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w6)

Close, but the options narrowed down way too quickly. I'm just not 3 at all. I have none of those kinds of behavior patterns.

I've taken this test before, but they've updated it again since then. I think it's slightly more off than usual.

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram Tritype is: 5-4-1
and your likely Enneagram Tritype with wings is: 5w6-4w3-1w9

5-4-1
Your overall type preference is:
type 5 (5w6) first,
type 4 (4w3) second,
and type 1 (1w9) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 1 (1w9)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 4 (4w3)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w6)

Close enough, but I'm not a 5 core. A problem with a lot of these online tests is that its definition of 5 is pretty vague and would apply to many introverts (especially Ti-dom ones). I don't relate to 9 descriptions much, so I'm not surprised I got 1w9 instead. The narrowing down of the wings was decent.

Yeah, way too easy to game, but that is what I type myself as, besides 1 and 5 flipped. I've always questioned if the 5 was higher than the 1, though. The descriptions of the types despite being short was a clear summary of each for the most part.

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram Tritype is: 4-5-1
and your likely Enneagram Tritype with wings is: 4w5-5w6-1w9


4-5-1
Your overall type preference is:
type 4 (4w5) first,
type 5 (5w6) second,
and type 1 (1w9) third.


Your dominant body-based type is type 1 (1w9)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 4 (4w5)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w6)

pretty close i guess. i don't know too much about the enneagram, so i didn't game it. i am pretty neurotic on the big 5, don't know if that influenced the last part...?

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram Tritype is: 9-4-6
and your likely Enneagram Tritype with wings is: 9w8-4w3-6w5

The first time I took it I got 6-8-4, which I was expecting because there was one question where I picked the Six option over the Five option (it had to do with Fives' unwillingness to express their views without having had a lot of time to think about them first, which I don't relate to).

Then I retook the test choosing the Five statement anyway and got 5-8-4, which sounds about right to me. I'm often mistaken for an Eight.

Based on your responses, your likely Enneagram Tritype is: 7-9-2

Your overall type preference is:
type 7 (7w8) first,
type 9 (9w8) second,
and type 2 (2w1) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 9 (9w8)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 2 (2w1)

Your overall type preference is:
type 5*(5w6) first,*
type 2*(2w1) second,*
and*type 9*(9w8) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 9 (9w8)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 2 (2w1)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w6)

Possibly. The 5 and 9 seem about right. 2 could just as easily be 4 though and is likely my third.

I think I've seen this test before when I was relying a lot on tests in the beginning to figure out my type, so I thought it'd be worth another try. This one was pretty close, but a little off (given, I do get a 9 core for a lot of tests since I do relate to 9 quite a bit).

Your overall type preference is:
type 9 (9w1) first,
type 5 (5w4) second,
and type 4 (4w5) third.

Your dominant body-based type is type 9 (9w1)
Your dominant heart-based type is type 4 (4w5)
Your dominant head-based type is type 5 (5w4)

This test gave me 4w5-5w6-1w2, all of which I've typed as in the past. The only thing I'd dispute is the order, and that would be solved, I believe, with increasing the length of the test as others have mentioned.

Nonetheless very close and enjoyable, thank you.

I get why it would choose 5w6 as my core (9w8 is reasonably accurate) but it just screwed up big-time when trying to choose my heart. I definitely felt railroaded at the end, when I saw it trying to make me choose between two wholly unrelatable wings.

Also as @tanstaafl28 said, this test is much too short. It needs to be like 3x longer to achieve reasonably dependable results.

I got 5w6, 8w7, 3w2. The description mostly does not describe me.
"Unsettled by occasional fits of temper,
sudden outbursts. affixed to notions of power;
attitude of resigned realist... may put others ill at ease."
I am very stoic/nonchalant, almost never showing emotion on the surface, awhile engaging the world around me passionately.
Could care less for power. I value inner peace, security, and feeling acceptance (though I do not adjust myself to fit in ever, what you see is what you get).
Resigned realist? Nope. Just a realist.
I am told often by others that they feel comfortable around me.
I am not domineering but can be. I hold back because my intensity and passion would intimidate or make others uncomfortable making good intentions (such as strong desire for progress) go unnoticed.

Years ago and with other tests I get 6w5, 9w8, 3w2. Which at the time I thought to be true, but then again I don't see a description specially in this order (6,9,3) for this tri-type. I guess anything I don't quite relate to in the general description of the tri-type can be explained by the wings.
I am adaptable, can be accommodating, easy going, professional in such environments. I avoid trouble. Obedient on the surface, though NOT submissive. Rebellious because I don't fit in naturally: too eccentric in thought process, way too open-minded and curious, with a ton of interests. I put myself out there purposefully to weed out those who are quick to judgement, would not accept me as me, and therefore someone I can't trust. I relate to the core fears. So 7 years later this is still my tri-type.
