INTJ duh.

Which MBTI type is the most intelligent? | Which MBTI Type…



And I saw this from another website, the person ranked INTJ and INTP as the smartest, followed by INFP and INFJ.

1. INTP/INTJ
2. INFP/INFJ
3. ENTP/ENTJ
4. ENFP/ENFJ
5. ISTP/ISTJ
6. ISFP/ISFJ
7. ESTP/ESTJ
8. ESFP/ESFJ

Which Is The Smartest MBTI Type? | Slayerment

 

[WinterFox]

But going by cognitive functions alone, I would say INTJ is the smartest, followed by INFJ.
Both have dominant Ni so both are smart people :tongue:

INTJs make good entrepreneurs (dominant Ni + Te) while INFJs make good psychologists (Ni + Fe).

INTJs and INFJs need each other

INTJs are the ones who set up a new clinic/hospital, while INFJs are the psychologists who work in that hospital/clinic helping INTJs to make money

If both INFJ and INTJ join forces, we would make a great team together, that's for sure

I find it interesting ISTP is ranked so low. I tested a 137

That's because the ranking is a load of bollocks. These kinds of internet lists usually have a ridiculous bias against sensor types. There's a whole article about it. On the Bias against Sensation | CelebrityTypes

Thanks for the read. While I'm not ready to jump on the "We're being oppressed!" train just yet, I can understand most of the points. I'm guessing the rankings have been sensationalized, though I don't understand why. When I began looking into Jung types I found the difference between N and S types pretty clear and unbiased, but I didn't look far beyond the facts regarding each type.

I don't really get the iNtuitive bias against Sensors, even though I'm an iNtuitive and therefore a bit biased myself. Being a Sensor does not automatically make someone dumb. For the record, my brother is an ESFP, and he's one of the smarter people I know.

 

[Richard Evers]

INTJ's brag about it all the time, that's for sure (I still love you.).

 

[ChkChkBoom]

I don't understand the whole bias thing either. I'm an intuitive and the sensors in my life are incredibly smart. Like I said, my isfj sisters IQ is considerably high. Her logic would out do any intuitive I know. She just doesn't define herself by her intelligence which is something I've noticed a few intuitives place above sensors. It's part of who she is but it isn't at the centre of it.

Ranking N over S, I over E, T over F, and P over J, with their levels of importance being N, then I, then P, then T, you get a list based on completely irrelevant claims that's fun to play around with in your mind were it to be a true ranking p. This is also probably what most MBTI sites would have as a list if they weren't considered so insulting and discriminatory.

And just for those who don't feel like making the list themselves:

1. INTP
2. INTJ
3. INFP
4. INFJ
5. ENTP
6. ENTJ
7. ENFP
8. ENFJ
9. ISTP
10. ISTJ
11. ISFP
12. ISFJ
13. ESTP
14. ESTJ
15. ESFP
16. ESFJ

Statistically Introverts are more intelligent than Extroverts, Intuitive's more than Sensors, Thinkers more than feelers and Judgers more than Perceivers

15. ESFP
16. ESFJ

I'm pretty sure by your system, the ranking would go something like:
1. INTP
2. INFP
3. INTJ
4. ENTP/INFJ
5. ISTP/ENFP
6. ENTJ/ISTJ/ISFP
7. ENFJ
8. ISFJ/ESTP
9. ESFP
10. ESTJ
11. ESFJ

Since the system is based around intelligence being measured by how close to an INTP you are, with T being least important, and N being most important. If you assign each letter a value from 1 to 4 and then total the sum, it becomes clearer. I actually like the ordering on this one, though its accuracy is dubious.

Also, on the topic of iNtuitives being biased as generally having higher IQ scores, I read that it was due to the nature of the tests, in that they focus on abstract thinking and connections. My dad is an ISTJ and he is incredibly smart.

In any case, I'm not sure I see the point of knowing your own IQ score. Everyone should be aiming towards full use of whatever they have, and having a single abstract number purporting to sum up your potential doesn't seem to help in any realistic way. The IQ test was originally developed for teachers to find students that were struggling so they could help them. Now it's become a way to find smart people and help them feel superior. Quite the shift, neh?

Also, as way of finishing, there was a study on 8th-12th graders that found ENTPs have the highest IQ, so... :tongue:

I don't mind the existence of these types of statistics, but I despise how people use them.

 

[Anon317]

whoever said P over J is a dumbass

 

[sinshred]

The most smart is INTP, but there is no doubt that INTJ is the most intelligent.
P - J function relate to how they take information (perceiving) and how their make decision (judgment).
Judgers are regarded as more intelligent as they spend more time focusing on the future than perceivers, and organization certainly helps when trying to learn new things.

 

[Purrfessor]

whoever said P over J is a dumbass

Why?

 

[old_bean]

I'd have to guess INTP.

 

[Kingpin]

Her's my list
INTJ

INFP
ENFJ
ESTJ

... I sense the bunk is strong with this post.

Different minds for different environments and tasks.

The mind will develop in response to its environment and past experiences.
How they are affected depends upon many factors.

Everyone has a different type of genre savvy for their given environment and respective profession.

Different issues and situations obviously have different expertise that are suitable for them, varying with whom the person in question is sent to deal with said issue.

I suppose the issue here is not much a question of general intellect, but rather the rate of which one learns, processes and retain the material that they process when confronted with a situation that demands it.

I.E, a rough example: An E/IFP type might be suitable for group dynamic social situations which require delicate handling and the regard for the needs and wants of all involved, being slow and considerate. Something more academically inclined might require the processing power and calculation of an INTJ/INTP type to observe all possible outcomes, which are possible, and which are not.

A leadership role in directing personnel and quick thinking might require an EXXJ type dynamic for that given situation.

Like I said, our minds are woven differently based on our experiences, schooling, and what not.

A question that's much more important and maybe one that ultimately serves a better purpose would be, what is the biggest rock? Please don't ask me to define what a rock is or tell me every rock is special or argue that the measurements used are partial to certain rocks.

Personally, I think it's the one I hold in my hand. But you're welcome to argue that you've seen a bigger one. But be warned, mine is extremely large and you'll never be able to convince me.

 

[JTHearts]

There's no such thing as an intelligent person or an unintelligent person. Everyone is intelligent in their own way, no one is intelligent in everything.
