I got a brown envelope today

A brown envelope. No money inside, but something I paid for. No, it's not anything illegal. =oP

My MBTI profile from Paladin Associates, Inc. Based on the official MBTI test, Form K I did a bit over a week ago.

On page 5, it says:

"Your four preferences, as described on the previous pages, combine to form the personality type described below. Read the description carefully, noting which statements fit you well and which may not be accurate.

EXTRAVERTED, SENSING, THINKING, JUDGING

ESTJ"

What's great about this is that they split all preference groups into 5 components (results included):

E/I:

initiating/receiving -- mixed
expressive/contained -- mixed
gregarious/intimate -- mixed
participative/reflective -- participative
enthusiastic/quiet -- mixed

S/N:

concrete/abstract -- mixed
realistic/imaginative -- realistic
practical/inferential -- mixed
experiental/theoretical -- theoretical
traditional/original -- traditional

T/F:

logical/empathetic -- logical
reasonable/compassionate -- reasonable
questioning/accomodating -- questioning
critical/accepting -- mixed
tough/tender -- mixed

J/P:

systematic/casual -- mixed
planful/open-ended -- planful
early starting/pressure-prompted -- early starting
scheduled/spontaneous -- scheduled
methodical/emergent -- mixed

From all that, my type description expands to 'THEORETICAL ESTJ' I think the way the preferences are split into components really helps to understand my personality behind the plain letters a lot better. I recommend that test to anyone really interested about their type.
