Analysts: INTJ The Architect. Good choice for my characters then, I took it for them and me and got the same type all the way through.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though. JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

INFP personalities are true idealists, always looking for the hint of good in even the worst of people and events, searching for ways to make things better. While they may be perceived as calm, reserved, or even shy, INFPs have an inner flame and passion that can truly shine. Comprising just 4% of the population, the risk of feeling misunderstood is unfortunately high for the INFP personality type - but when they find like-minded people to spend their time with, the harmony they feel will be a fountain of joy and inspiration.
INFP personalityBeing a part of the Diplomat (NF) personality group, INFPs are guided by their principles, rather than by logic (Analysts), excitement (Explorers), or practicality (Sentinels). When deciding how to move forward, they will look to honor, beauty, morality and virtue - INFPs are led by the purity of their intent, not rewards and punishments. People who share the INFP personality type are proud of this quality, and rightly so, but not everyone understands the drive behind these feelings, and it can lead to isolation.
All that is gold does not glitter; not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither; deep roots are not reached by the frost.
J. R. R. Tolkien

i have always tested as intp, although i wonder if that result is due to confirmation bias.
i think the mmpi is a far more accurate test. that one can be so accurate that its frightening.

ISTPs love to explore with their hands and their eyes, touching and examining the world around them with cool rationalism and spirited curiosity. People with this personality type are natural Makers, moving from project to project, building the useful and the superfluous for the fun of it, and learning from their environment as they go. Often mechanics and engineers, ISTPs find no greater joy than in getting their hands dirty pulling things apart and putting them back together, just a little bit better than they were before.
ISTP personalityISTPs explore ideas through creating, troubleshooting, trial and error and first-hand experience. They enjoy having other people take an interest in their projects and sometimes don't even mind them getting into their space. Of course, that's on the condition that those people don't interfere with ISTPs' principles and freedom, and they'll need to be open to ISTPs returning the interest in kind.
ISTPs enjoy lending a hand and sharing their experience, especially with the people they care about, and it's a shame they're so uncommon, making up only about five percent of the population. ISTP women are especially rare, and the typical gender roles that society tends to expect can be a poor fit - they'll often be seen as tomboys from a young age.
Dare to differ
While their mechanical tendencies can make them appear simple at a glance, ISTPs are actually quite enigmatic. Friendly but very private, calm but suddenly spontaneous, extremely curious but unable to stay focused on formal studies, ISTP personalities can be a challenge to predict, even by their friends and loved ones. ISTPs can seem very loyal and steady for a while, but they tend to build up a store of impulsive energy that explodes without warning, taking their interests in bold new directions.
Rather than some sort of vision quest though, ISTPs are merely exploring the viability of a new interest when they make these seismic shifts.
ISTPs' decisions stem from a sense of practical realism, and at their heart is a strong sense of direct fairness, a "do unto others" attitude, which really helps to explain many of ISTPs' puzzling traits. Instead of being overly cautious though, avoiding stepping on toes in order to avoid having their toes stepped on, ISTPs are likely to go too far, accepting likewise retaliation, good or bad, as fair play.
The biggest issue ISTPs are likely to face is that they often act too soon, taking for granted their permissive nature and assuming that others are the same. They'll be the first to tell an insensitive joke, get overly involved in someone else's project, roughhouse and play around, or suddenly change their plans because something more interesting came up.
Nothing is as boring as everyone agreeing with you
ISTPs will come to learn that many other personality types have much more firmly drawn lines on rules and acceptable behavior than they do - they don't want to hear an insensitive joke, and certainly wouldn't tell one back, and they wouldn't want to engage in horseplay, even with a willing party. If a situation is already emotionally charged, violating these boundaries can backfire tremendously.
ISTPs have a particular difficulty in predicting emotions, but this is just a natural extension of their fairness, given how difficult it is to gauge ISTPs' emotions and motivations. However, their tendency to explore their relationships through their actions rather than through empathy can lead to some very frustrating situations. People with the ISTP personality type struggle with boundaries and guidelines, preferring the freedom to move about and color outside the lines if they need to.
Finding an environment where they can work with good friends who understand their style and unpredictability, combining their creativity, sense of humor and hands-on approach to build practical solutions and things, will give ISTPs many happy years of building useful boxes - and admiring them from the outside.

First time I took this test (this being my second), I was given "INFJ-T." And it fit better than the one I just got, INTP-T. But not by much. I appear to be a hybrid of the two.
I got an ESTJ-A Result ("The Executive")
Extraversion - 49%
Sensing - (Observant) 27%
Thinking - 42%
Judging - 37%
Assertive - 20%
ESTJs are representatives of tradition and order, utilizing their understanding of what is right, wrong and socially acceptable to bring families and communities together. Embracing the values of honesty, dedication and dignity, people with the ESTJ personality type are valued for their clear advice and guidance, and they happily lead the way on difficult paths. Taking pride in bringing people together, ESTJs often take on roles as community organizers, working hard to bring everyone together in celebration of cherished local events, or in defense of the traditional values that hold families and communities together.

That can happen. I always fall somewhere between INFJ and INFP and honestly neither profile seems by itself to fit me. Taking both together makes more sense.

ISTP-A, the Virtuoso. This test actually gave my highest "assertive" score that I remember seeing, and the lowest "thinking" vs. "Feeling" ratio.
I like the little cartoon engineer holding a power drill saying "Oh, I know how to fix this." That's definitely me. :cool:

I've taken a different version of this test twice before. The first time I was INFJ, the second time INTP. Both times were borderline INFP. More than two years have gone by since then, and the test was simply "Yes" or "No" instead of sliders. Maybe I'll take this one sometime soon.
Matching my previous results with the categories on the linked site, I'm possibly a Logician, Advocate, or a Mediator.

The Trek character I think we ENTPs most often get compared to is Q. This quiz cites Tyler Durden and The Joker as being in our archetype and I guess I can see the correlation to Q there.
I have seen Kirk get labeled at ENTP but then I think there are basically several versions of Kirk who are practically different characters. I see early TOS Kirk, late TOS Kirk, early movies Kirk, late movies Kirk, and JJ Kirk as having five different personality types. I also think movies Picard has a different personality than TNG through Generations Picard but that nobody ever is refering to First Contact through Nemesis Picard (who you also see glimpses of in a couple of TNG episodes) when they talk about the character. Most people think of the introverted, principled guy who hates kids and emotes well for memes, not so much the guy who smashes display cases and loves fast cars and fast women.
I think aging and balancing duty with his impulsive and egotistical streak was a BIG thing for Kirk that prompted big changes. Probably no other Trek character cared about aging or the limit of his own ability to bluff/cheat/win as Kirk. I think maybe Kirk was an ESTP under all that life experience but that situations and duty probably forced him to modulate and control a lot of those traits, such that he ended up forcing himself to behave like other types out of feelings of duty or personal responsibility or extreme grief/regret.
Picard, meanwhile, was -- I think -- a hotheaded and impulsive guy who tended to let tragedies or missed opportunities in his life lead him to control or modulate those impulses. The further he gets from facing a tragedy, the more... well... ADHD and intense he could get. Interaction with the Crusher family, the artificial heart, his assimilation, and the loss of Robert/Rene tended to bottle up and make him more introverted and considered. I see him as an ENFP who life molded into an INTJ. We see the real man cut loose as Dixon Hill.

INTJ-A
Pretty interesting, as I work as an engineering technician.
Edit: Wiki also says, INTJ's are among the rarest tested at 1-2%...
Summary made quite a lot of sense to me.
Edit2: either there's a lot of INTJ's drawn to trek, or the rarity comment in the link is off base.
Lots of em here.

> They love patterns, and spotting discrepancies between statements could almost be described as a hobby, making it a bad idea to lie to an INTP.

First time I was in a good mood, rather cheery, and got ISFP-T
Second time I took it I was in a 'I'm gonna f**k **** up' mood and got an ESTJ-S.
I went with the answers that felt right at the time so.. ~I think these two personality types reflect who I am rather well (for now anyway)
It's not what is done or said but why.
Words and actions may be judged, but motives?
Motives are truth to a believer
