on_se_dit_tu at 04:52pm on 07/08/2009Socionics is very different than MBTI though it appears similar on the surface. The function orders work differently, and a Socionics INFP is like an MBTI INFJ. Not only that, but in Socionics I'm actually an ENFp.
In fact, I'm beginning to think I *am* an ENFP. Even in MBTI, ENFPs are known as "the introverted extrovert" who need plenty of time alone to recharge. I'm expressive and have a caustic sense of humor, the latter of which is apparently a more ExxP and/or NT trait. I identify pretty strongly with the Socionics description of ENFp, and while I do relate a great deal to the MBTI INFP description, I'm still not the meek little mousy, passive-aggressive girl who doesn't feel a need to talk things out, either.
Apparently those cognitive processes tests I took give skewed results a lot.
At any rate, if I am ENFP, I'm actually eNFP, or there wouldn't even be this confusion.
