Hey Frank, I found this free one modeled off of Big Five.. What do you think? It also has the other tests ex. DISC, Mbti, etc. but i haven't checked those out yet. Anyway this one went into the breakdown of percentages within the 5 categories also. Curious on your opinion if your interested in checking it out: www.123test.com/personality-test/
Hello Frank, I enjoyed your ways on video and want to defend you, claiming that that big-5 test is not covering the truth at all. The human being is much bigger than that, only psychology ends with...psychology, the soul, but doesn't cover the spirit. Now, I don't know the test you paid to do, but I did Jordan Peterson's Self-authoring Suite, enthusiastically expectant after all positive I head and read about it. Without his engaged presence, its text was not really speaking to my soul, and I got pretty stressed and sour at how that program was made, mainly that one could only write 2000 words, was then cut off,- without it saying at start , so that one could have made another disposition. He said one could write as much as one liked, which was not true. One also got no help to get in touch with one's inner self and life, and being isolated and sick, down, I didin't get in touch with my life, but wrote rather mechanically. So that great thing was not great for me, - just said as a parallel. The big 5-test_ Please don't take it as 100% truth about you, because it is not! The free one I did 2 times, is kind of superficial, uses common language and simple sentences and examples that I didn't feel comfortable with. And the whole narrow way of answering yes and no in various degrees, wirthout the possibility of BOTH, - in different life-situations, moods,aspects of truth! Also, a very modest human might under-report, and there is room for very individual interpretations of their questions/implications. F example liking to go to parties may depend on what kind of aprties it is, how much isoaltion one has been oín, how much one feels like seeing people in a simpler way just at some time, and if one has had serious one -to-one talks, one may feel like a party even if it is not one's normal style. As for agreeableness, there is such a big difference if it is a co-dependent, harmless, immature kid of human or an inwardly active, healing, present one, so the answers don't really tell that much. If i may say something personal, i thought you seem a very nice man and got far too low scores , f ex extroversion: Unless you are very different in real life not on videos, I donä't think you should have that high score on introversion. Or am I wrong to think one is more inhibited then also? As for conscientiousness, that also seems to be too low score for you, both your room, your appearance and your organized speech/soul doesn't seem to correspond very much to that, even if one brushes up a bit for the video, hahaha! Neuroticism are you really that high? How would you be a woman trapped in a mans body, I don't think so. I can't quite get whether you really take this test seriously and recommend it (I have Aspergers) or if you are being cynical about it really. because you don'ät seem to take your results hard, but seem very relaxed about them. I think that test seems to be an insult to your real self. And it doesn't take into account that ppl can do it before or after nerve-healing. and all sorts of situations that will not convey the real personality. I am highly agreeable really, but not so much because of extreme long-term stress, exhaustion, being life-threateningly abused, living in dangerous, uncertainty all the time and have got fearful-aggressive, stressed, sleep deprived, and cant be a s nice as I really am. It is a Q of energy and nerve strength. Ill hear more vids by you, it was pleasant , your calm sense. Stay yourself.
Frank James O-90 C-40 E-17 A-73 N-56 Empathic idealist I think over the years I’ve seen N drop. Frankly, no pun intended, in my forties I just don’t give flying hoot as easily.
Libra love organizing things in the most aesthetically pleasing way, but you are DREAMING if you think I’m going to come home from a 10 hour shift to organize everything.
This line cracked me up 🤣. Je suis capable de ranger couleur par couleur mes vêtements certains jour. Et avec plaisir. Mais d'autres, vivre dans ma chambre, c'est comme vivre dans un dépotoir.
I am almost 50 years old and I've spent my entire life feeling like a freak. I absolutely adore your videos. It's like you are saying everything that goes on to my mind. I have felt so alone most of my life and it's so nice to know that you and your followers are out there, even though I generally don't seem to run into you. But I guess that's because we're all hanging out in our own heads and not with each other.
I am 45 and feel like a disaster...I sent his upload " All Empaths Have These 3 Personality Traits" to my husband...I wanted him to tell me if it sounds like me..He said yes in so many ways...I was not surprised...I would rather be in a creek out in the middle of nowhere looking for rocks then dealing with people...(rockhound)..I have more trust in critters then people...I was born and raised in Kentucky,but now I live in Bavaria,Germany...Sometimes I have a chance to have friends...but I back out like a crawdad...it's all my fault ...I also see things others don't....yeah "ghosts" my mother was afraid of me and told me as a kid to keep my mouth shut...I am afraid of what others may think of me...My husband calls it a gift ......I call it a curse...sorry for the long read....I just needed to get it out...
@@racheallange2056 In your defense, Bavarians are imo not very welcoming towards newcomers. Come to Northrine Westphalia, we're grumpy but nice underneath!
Racheal Lange, I’m 44 and have everything you do and probably more! (It’s not a contest, but I am competitive 😁) I want to talk about ur ghost stuff. Like what you actually experienced. When I was a kid, I visited a wheat farm. On this farm, as with lots of farms, old homestead houses and barns were scattered around.i remember walking to this abandoned house probably 2 stones throw away from my family. It was a very small, 2 story house, old as shit, disrepair, last used probably 50 years ago. As I walked in, I felt this invisible wave go through me, made me feel a little nauseous. I had this distinct feeling I was being watched. There was no reason for this feeling, but it did not go away until I left the house. Have you experienced anything like that?
I took the test when you talked about it in last video. I never realized that my extremely high neuroticism is what keeps ruining my life (and self-confidence). Glad I took it. Peterson has some videos for "high neuroticism and high openness to experience" and implying his advice helps. Organizing and cleaning my house, having "external" affairs in order helps to feel better. He is basically saying that doing that helps us to tame neuroticism and lets us concentrate on creativity and the stuff we're good at which is normally suppressed by neuroticism.
I have mixed feelings about this test. But totally aside from that, I'm just enjoying the constantly sarcastic(?)-sounding tone of your voice in this video, it's hilarious.
The big 5 personality measure is the gold standard but if u mean how extreme his results are then yeah I feel like something was going on there. Edit: perhaps it's just a consequence of utilising a self-report measure.
From one 62 yr old female INFJ to a a 'fellow' INFJ, I love your humor. Just bumped into your live blog, and find it a friendly counselor to hear your honest flow of thoughts. I hear you. I agree with you. Rather new to MBriggs, as stated above, I am INFJ; my hubby, INTJ. (I talk to him like you share here! It's therapeutic.) Keep it up. ~ Debbie
"It looks like I'm a people pleasing, lazy shut in who is basically on the verge of some kind of meltdown". And finally, I don't feel so alone anymore! I have found my people! Also I got 6% on conscientiousness and I'm a human shaped ball of guilt, shame, and self disgust. So it seems that I would like to be conscientious, but I'm basically malfunctioning and hating myself for it.
In my opinion i guess a lot of INFJ will share a quite similar composition, very high level of neuroticism and openness. And unfortunately those are like opposing traits, we're helplessly curious about a lot of things and have a huge desire to explore new field but at the same time our neuroticism tends to hold ourself back because of the obsessive thoughts like "what if bad things happen," "what if i'm doing it wrong" "what will other people say", etc so we unconsciously contradict ourself in daily basis. That's probably how we start to feel overwhelmed :'). I previously found a video of Jordan Peterson explaining that having these two opposing traits in high level will likely make us stressed, so we have to maintain our conscientiousness in moderate level in order to balance that by building routinity and stick to that pattern. IMHO establishing a routine will help us feel grounded and may prevent our brain to perpetually fall into those never-ending contradiction ^^
I was blaming it on my falling deep into born again religion at 14, probably saved my life from getting knocked up, OD'ing or marrying at all but fir wrong reasons for sure, and running with some crowd after the dead, cuz all psychadelic stuff scares me, and I think I don't really live like I want so conservative peopke wont be scared of or distain me. Huh, is that neurotic or smart?
As an INFP I totally relate to what you were saying about orderliness. I love and yearn to be more organized but I don’t mind mess all that much; although when things are organized I feel more at peace.
I feel you dude. Jordan Peterson didn’t feature any videos about people with personalities like ours. Literally first percentile of conscientiousness here😂 with low industrious and orderliness too (both under 10th percentile) but 96th percentile openness to experience, 94th intellect and 93rd openness. I was born to fail at life and live in my head tbh
Don't listen to Jordan Peterson. He's a fraud and a swindler, and a troll in a respectable suit. He uses psychology to piggyback politics, and if I'd have turned in one of his papers into my uni, it would have been instant F. It looks impressive, sounds impressive, but it's not the real deal.
@@johnknight9150 i don't think so bro ... U saw Frank agreeing to most of the result and then giving examples how that they were true ... JP has some credible criticisms about himself ... but nt that he is completely a fraud ... everyone throughout history had some criticisms ... even Ghandhi.
@@dhruvgupta794 Never mind what Frank James does or doesn't say, that's a logical error called Appeal to Authority - let the data speak for itself. JP uses massive leaps in logic that don't add up and horrendously misrepresents the sources he claims to be quoting, because he's banking on the fact that you probably won't check his sources and will simply take his word for it. Check his sources. I know JP is acting fraudulently because I've seen him do it. I can give you two simple examples if you like.
@@johnknight9150 I am aware of his criticisms, best done by Nathan Robinson in his article "The Intellectual we Deserve" (heard about it in a Noam Chomsky podcast). Anyways the main point Nathan keeps repeating in that is that JP doesn't say anything much new or extremely profound (bear responsibility, speak truth etc, etc,) and the other things he claims to be more insightful is pretty flawed, but the simpler things that he advocates (bear responsibilities, speak truth, freedom of speech and equality in opportunity not in outcome), not many people were advocating them befor him which are crucially important topics ... Nathan blamed education institutions and some other things for it ... therefore JP is a "Intellectual we Deserve" ... There are some critisisms of this article too ... Now his personality test ... My cousin sister took it and she too found it pretty helpful, I am not lying, unless you decide that I am, then I cannot do anything about.
@@dhruvgupta794 Well that stuff's all relatively subjective, I'd rather point to something objectively verifiable and not simply open to interpretation. For an example, if you take his appearance on Dr Oz (already a bad combination!), found here: th-cam.com/video/i-Eb76X3upk/w-d-xo.html ....he shows the audience the Big Five system and what their personality type is based on the Big Five model. This is absolutely not how the Big Five system works. People aren't "Extroverted Types" or "Openness Types". The Big Five system works by using a combination of five personality factors, based on Extroversion, Agreeableness, Openness, Conscientiousness, and Neuroticism. Each is a sliding scale, and a researcher receives measurements in all five scales. Conclusions are then drawn by what your readings are in all the scales, and the scales all work together. For instance, people prone to a certain kind of mental illness might be high in one particular scale and low in another. Or people with a particular political preference might be high on two scales and low on two others, etc. etc. This is First Year, First Term, First Semester, Psych 101 stuff that any psychology student knows. Jordan Peterson knows darn well that this is not how the Big Five model works, but he has come up with this supermarket magazine nonsense, presumably to get a nice appearance fee on national television, but that's speculation.
Based on the impression I get from your videos, you have an impressive and organized work ethic. You certainly seem much higher in conscientiousness. I think the issue is that people who score higher in neuroticism tend to be less flattering answering other sections of the test, and end up understating their qualities as a result.
I'm surprised at some of these results. I think it is very brave of you to have put yourself on camera at all to have this channel. I have noticed that other people seem to have a much higher opinion of me, than I have of myself.
Recovering Soul yes I get this a lot too, I’ve been very open about my ups and downs this year on Instagram and when I’m down I get a crap load of support and people saying how much I mean to them.
Originally I was skeptical about some “defining” traits of INFJs but but watching a lot of your videos and how I related to you extremely well made me a lot more content with being typed as an INFJ. I truly love how much I relate to you and hope that one day I may get to talk to you more in depth about life experiences bad and good. Keep it up Frank James
Judging by the exceptional quality and production rate of your videos, I’m certain you are much higher in conscientiousness than the test suggests - especially in industriousness. I think the problem is that people higher in neuroticism tend to be harder on themselves on all other aspects of the Big Five.
Don't be so hard on yourself with contentiousness and industriousness. Both tend to be strongly correlated in the big five with a willingness to comply with authourity or external expectations. INFJ generally buck authority at even the subconscious level....they hate it...as for being industrial...INFJ generally hate being obliged or coerced into doing things for others...but can be very driven when we choose to do things ourselves. In other words in self-determination theory INFJ ranks autonomy and agency right up top (while others would place relationships or mastery higher in priority). The big five tends to be very biased in this area and does not have enough nuance to differentiate between autonomy seeking and 'refusal' to 'work' i.e. it cannot tell you why you 'refuse to work'
First time hearing of this test but thanks to you I had to check it out. The waves were pretty high in my OCEAN.....lol O-96%, C-62.5%, E- 13%, A- 90%, N- 83%. Interesting to say the least. I can definitely relate to liking things to be organized but can't seem to get my life nearly as organized as I would like. I know that it would help my anxiety tremendously but am never motivated enough to complete it! Really enjoying your videos! I don't usually leave comments but this feels like a safe place and you're so relatable.
I have almost the same scores as you except I’m high in extraversion. I just found your channel and it’s so comforting finding a little community of people interested in this type of thing and people like me. I feel like we would be good friends. Your videos are great. Keep it up :)
Loved the vid, Frank. Thanks for sharing. Your next online profile should definitely say, “I’m a people pleasing, lazy shut in. That’s on the verge of a public meltdown. But I am good at creating things, because I’m open.” With the headline, more creative than the average bear. 🤣
I love your videos Frank! I just took the big five yesterday and scored almost the opposite from you and I’m an ENFJ . I find it very interesting. But I love your humor! Your videos always crack me up and/or put a smile on my face :)
Hey Frank. When I wanted a real reference regarding the big 5, gotta say you were the #1 and only person or site/channel I wanted to hear from. I feel your honesty. Im an Infj skeptic, and appreciate ANY source I can enjoy or gain understanding from. Your vids are a fabulous combination of ingredients. If you read this by some great chance...thanks!
This whole video was tragically hilarious. I especially laughed out loud when you called your self a moody bastard, as this is the "baddest" word I've ever heard you say on a video 😂.
I finally got around to taking this: Agreeableness: 87 Conscientiousness: 78 Extraversion: 20 Neuroticism: 72 Openness To Experience: 15 I also type as an INFJ. Favorite part of the video was at the 8:30 mark. It's great that you can have such a good sense of humor... love the serious undertones. I'm glad you're good at creating things!
Sup Frank, I hope you are well. I wanted to drop by to say I appreciate how well you are able to articulate the quirks and contradictions that crop up for us. It's uncanny. I can't tell if there are other INFJs thinking "Shit, my dishes piled up and then I moved city shortly after..." or if it's just me, but there seems to be something so relatable in other INFJs as if we are all struggling separately together. Not in a negative way. It feels like a blessing to recognize the depth. That's where I think the Big 5 misses the mark for us. It doesn't give us the meaning portion that INFJs crave. It just sets us against others quantitatively when we feel qualitatively different, or we feel like we notice that other people may be thinking way differently. We certainly feel, I think, that other people are not as aware of their own thoughts as we are of our own, and theirs too. I did the test on another site and received similarly higher scores in Openness and Neuroticism, but I don't find those descriptions comprehensive or a description of what's going on when I'm about info and it's coming in. Reading an INFJ profile, it feels extremely meaningful and my spidey senses start tinglging. I can't get through it without giggling in recognition of what's going on here. It could just be that I care more for concepts than math, and I'm missing the point and need to do more work. Anyway, I'd love to hear your thoughts if you get the time. Thanks for more videos; using them like mirrors to go deeper. Take care and sending positive thoughts and love.
Hilarious!!!! Tried it myself after watching this and our scores were fairly similar. Especially loved your summary. We all think you are wonderful and thanks for all the help ..........
Hey I’m INFJ too (Thought I was INTJ for a while) Male 24 Years I took this test a while ago here are my results: Agreeableness: 85th percentile Compassion: 88th Percentile Politeness: 71st Percentile (people call me “pleasant” to deal with) Conscientiousness: 15th Percentile Industriousness: 1st Percentile Orderliness: 66th percentile (I clean my room but I like a little disorder) Extraversion: 12th percentile Enthusiasm: 13th Percentile Assertiveness: 18th percentile (Introvert but my day job involves interacting with dozens of clients everyday) Neuroticism: 90th percentile Withdrawal: 97th percentile Volatility: 68th percentile (I need time for reflection) Openness to experience: 96th Percentile Intellect: 89th percentile Openness: 96th percentile (I am always looking for new ideas to test)
Teresa Triumph I used to work with a guy, and his wife went to another country to visit relatives. He found out she was returning early. He had used all the dishes and pots and pans and the old food was crusted on. So....he threw it all away and bought new stuff. Told me his wife was confused when she got back. He told her some nonsense about how he loved her so much he got new stuff. It was hilarious and tragic at the same time. I just think we should be honest with our spouse.
Recovering Soul yeah hilarious and painful are the measures that people take for themselves 😆 When I was a child, my mother assigned me to clean all the dishes and at the end of the task were the nasty pots and pans staring back at me, mocking. I didn't want any part of that action so I carried them out the back door and threw them into the bonfire. She noticed her only pots missing, found them, and busted my behind with her cedar paddle! That's why FJ's comment hit my funny bone.
LOL well you're my favorite neurotic shut-in. It seems like the test did a good job of capturing who you think you are - not sure if it can possibly represent who you really are or how others see you, though. Thanks for sharing and I love your videos!
I got 98% on neuroticism and i think I got 99% for openness to experience. Cant quite remember my others but they were relatively balanced like i was mid range for the others ish. I like this test, it's very good and a great supplement to the MBTI when trying to work yourself out and how you relate to others. I also have a diagnosuis of BPD that was given to me using the DSM by a psychologist, and I have an INFP - T personality type, they all seem to be pointing at similar things in me, I think each are useful psychological tools for understanding and ordering an understanding of yourself but not as a solid definition. I like to think each of us has a unique soul that transcends our personality and temperament, like a wild card so to speak... Another awesome video dude.
Oh my, you crack me up! I was laughing the whole time. Guess I'm not surprised tho as I'm an ENFP and apparently that's why I can appreciate you! Thanks for the fun video!
02:41 Frank: "Sometimes I wonder if I'm actually high in conscientiousness but have some kind of problem... that makes me not work??!". This actually made me burst into laughter since I feel the very same way, and it just makes no sense. It's kind of like being inclined to the worst possible work ethic a human being can have, whilst sort of being aware of it and therefore trying to combat that behaviour by judging yourself as harshly as a person with 100% score in conscientiousness would do. Like WHY do that to yourself? Shit's weird fam.
I looked at your play lists and didn't see the Strength Finder 2.0 I know this Big Five kinda shook you, so how about doing the Strength Finder? Be interesting to see a live "unboxing" too. (Or score reveal). Thanks for sharing your creativity here...very refreshing!
I just took this test yesterday and totally in denial of the result, youtubuing for hours landed to your video.. And we are very similar except I am a man trapped in a woman's body.. LOL
its the hormones...too much oestrogen in the body from the hormoned milk and meats as well chemicals in the plastics too...watch dr josh axe on youtube 4 more info:) btw i know its sarcasm :)
Oh my goodness! I’m trying to keep quiet while watching this, but you got this serious INFJ laughing so much! I found your channel a few weeks ago, and I am trying to catch up. Oh my goodness! You get me! I get you! Love your channel!
I spent a good deal of my life learning things that would shore up what I considered my weaker side. So I would never need another person so much that I would sacrifice those who depend on me to get these areas covered. Believe me, it has been an experience I appreciated. Confidence builder!!! Also kind of like pulling a plow through a dry field of clay. I asked myself, what is the world was I thinking? No one told me to do that. Boy am I excited about the fun stuff! the things I have a natural affinity for.
I love and respect orderliness but I am a disorganized mess. My place looks it’s been ransacked but the positive thing is that if someone broke in to rob me they would just leave because they would think “oh somebody’s already been here “. Yes FJ I wanna take that test to see what a hot mess I am. Thx for 411. have a great evening, I guess.👍🏻
Hey Frank! Great videos! Just a little "math geekin" here but Percentiles work differently then percentages they operate on a bell curve. 60th percentile means better then average for intellect and 25 th percentile isn't really bad for orderliness it means if you put you in a random group of 4 people you'd probably be the least orderly of 4 ... the really low and really high percentiles make you an extreme outlier. Though assuming they are accurate 4 th percentile conscientiousness and 97 percentile neuroticism would probably make it a safe bet that your I.Q is high given the state of your channel.
A little bit more geekin out but how did they bin the data? How did they normalize the distribution? When I hear the word Percentile out in the layman world I cringe because I really DO seek clarity as chaotic as others see me.
I was into the big 5 for a while, being into Jordan B Petersons lectures and so forth. Made alot of theories about how different MBTI types matched the scores of OCEAN (abbreviation for the 5 traits). Both the perceiving introverted types Si and Ni are somewhat even when it comes to Openness and Consciousness, the big difference is that the other value one of the traits more. There is this idea in socionics that the last trait, the 8th trait is unconsciously very strong. But I agree with that. INFJ tend to have very good memories, and are very able to sustain what they have learnt, which are both traits of strong Si. I would say that Openness is more or less high in N and T (the dichotomy of N - S, and T - F) Consciousness is high in Si (the dichotomy of Si - Ne) Extroversion is high in Se or weirdly enough Ne (the dichotomy of Se - Ni and Ne - Si) Agreeableness is high in F (the dichotomy of F - T) Neuroticism is also high in N (the dichotomy of Ni - Se / Ne - Si) - Neuroticism is tricky though, I do believe that unhealthy Si dominant can be very neurotic and judgmental, something that really shows itself in poor mental health and lack of self reflection, even in paranoia. This is a very simplistic model, but i do believe that most personality models describe more or less the same traits, and in doing so widely correlates with one other.
I would say that what the big 5 don't have, is this outdated idea that thinking and feeling are two dichotomies, that MBTI have. In that regard the MBTI is very old and in many ways misogynist. We cannot forget that MBTI is based on Carl Jung's Personality Types, and even though he was a revolutionary man with amazing ideas, he still was a man of the Victorian age, where women where considered not to posses the thinking capacities of the "rational" man. (Just a little history lesson.) This is very very important, because the thinking - feeling dichotomy is in my opinion a fallacy. Rationality (T) and Compassion (F) aren't two opposites, and both can be valued or devalued. In truth the opposite of thinking is well, not to think and use your brain? And the same goes from feeling... and be completely heartless... To think that being a feeling type you have quote "strong values" but tend to be irrational, is a very strange way of think about your self.. And to think that being a thinking type you have no compassion but are very rational, is equally strange. It just dont add up, and should like OCEAN/Big 5 be separated.
''Now we're getting to the stuff i like ! *Neuroticism* '' 😂 Damn i'm acing this test 😂 Frank you're seriously my fav infj in this world ! Your sense of humor is superior i was laughing the whole tiime 😂❤ and i always feel totally understood after watching your videos ! For example when you said ''I can take charge of a situation , i just don't like it'' & ''I don't think i'm good at things but it doesn't mean i'm not'' i could relate 100% , i'll take the test 😀 (and probably get an 98% on neuroticism 😏)
This video had me smiling the whole time! So funny and relatable. Don’t sell yourself short. Conscientious can be learned, I am not so sure that is as true of openness. Have you looked at the Enneagram? You sound like you might be a Four... also known as “the individualist” or “the romantic” or “the artist”. Healthy fours are amazing. My spiritual mentor is an INFJ four.
1 and 2 and 5 I got almost the same exact results as you (and I also think I'm a closet conscientious person, just not capable of... acting). Extroversion for me was average or moderately low. Neuroticism for me was very low. Makes sense as I believe I'm an ENTP.
Your results are quite similar to mine. I'm an ENFP-T. I got the same as you in consciousness, agreeableness and openness to experience. Only difference were neuroticism (mine was 30 per cent) and extroversion (mine was 80 per cent). Interesting to see the similarities and difference in the XNFX types.
Also, as an INFJ fellow, I got 95% on agreeableness but I didn't find it as being a doormat, because I just like to be kind and altruistic and fair to others which just makes me happy! I also got practically the complete opposite on the others, where in neuroticism I'm low because I try to be as cheerful and enthusiastic as possible as it is very good for my health by staying optimistic and can lift everyones' spirits! :3
I find it extremely insightful to look at both MBTI and OCEAN (Big 5). Four of the five traits are correlated, although MBTI does not evaluate neuroticism, or tendency toward negative emotion. Enjoy comparing your results! PS - Another interesting personality test to try is the Enneagram!
Hey Frank, I've been bouncing around your old vlogs and I wondered if you ever wound up taking the big 5 test more recently? I know that you made this video during one of the darker periods in your life where you were experiencing some depression and since the big 5 personality traits can fluctuate quite a bit throughout a person's life, it'd be interesting to see what they are like now that I can clearly tell you have a big more confidence and are doing better in your mental health. Maybe the results wouldn't be quite so, uh... disheartening. ;)
ha ha, loved the summary at the end. Sounds like you have all the makings of a mad scientist about to take over the world! But seriously, you basically just described much of the "genius" we've seen in history (ex: Beethoven).
I think this is my favorite video of yours so far. I could not help laugh the whole way through it. Not that I am laughing at you but you are so damn funny. Now you’ve got me wanting to take the stupid test. And I’m quite busy so I don’t know if I’ll have time to do it right now. But I know I’m damn well going to take that test just for the fun of it. And maybe I’ll make a video of it so I can laugh at myself. Because I really need to laugh at myself. I am extremely serious most of the time. Thank you!!
Oh my gosh!!! you are so sooooooo funny and you are naturally that way too, because nobody can fake that level of humor as it only comes when someone is being their honest natural self :) Stay awesome Bro! ONE
I need to take this test because you are not these things you've changed my life I don't know how these tests can make you feel depressed I don't know I need to take it myself keep up the great work man you're awesome
Since were reciting poetry on this channel I thought I’d recite what came to my mind, “Why, then, ‘tis none to you, for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” As your boy W.S. said, it’s akin to something in the Fall in the Garden, that is where the concepts of right and wrong came into existence. Hence, the results of your personality test are indicative to the psychologists who created them and in the context of society. What I’m trying to say is that a test can’t define you, only you, yourself can truly define who you really are in your heart. However, that’s subjective as well I suppose, because in that one video about a reunion or so, I did detect some Woody Allen-esque behavior, but it was that subtle humor that we’ve all come to know and love. Anyways, that’s enough ramble, I’m starting to think my cat might be kind of neurotic, but he loves to watch your videos. He also rates high on intellect, so I’ll let you discuss amongst yourselves what you think that could mean about him.😉
Your reactions cracked me up. I took the Big 5 test recently out of curiosity. Apparently compared to everyone else, I'm a hermit vegetable who's slightly intellectual and mildly open. But at least nothing bothers me.
This was actually hilarious. I was just sat there laughing and going lord please let him get SOME good points 😂 I could feel your soul leaving your body with each word you uttered. MBTI boosts your ego and Enneagram slaps you back to reality 👋 I love it lmao
Hi again, My name is Kathryn, a fellow INFJ and I am the commenter that inquired about an email address for you on the Feel like hot garbage video, I get it if you don’t feel like sharing it, but this video made me certain that I should go ahead and share with you what I was going to in email, I am a Mother of three, two adults one 10 year old, two of my children have “Mild” Aspergers Syndrome, not detectable by anyone unless they know a lot about it and know them very well. Anyone they reveal that information about themselves to are very surprised, So much of what you say about yourself and INFJ things that you really connect to, and the test results here you say you connect to, and a lot of what you describe struggling with and wondering about in a lot of your videos really, makes me feel even more that you, who are working so hard on self understanding, might benefit from exploring the possibility of being somewhere “ on the spectrum”, it could help you find answers to the whys ( why am I like this or that) and much more. Peace, love and light.
I wonder how I would score on one of these tests the last time I was confused because I had to abnormal extreme traits, that cancelled each other out causing the test to say that I was normal.
You make me laugh, and that is what I need now. Thank you. You are very intelligent and funny. I discovered your channel the other day and can't stop watching it now. 😘🤣❤

Hey Frank, I found this free one modeled off of Big Five.. What do you think? It also has the other tests ex. DISC, Mbti, etc. but i haven't checked those out yet. Anyway this one went into the breakdown of percentages within the 5 categories also. Curious on your opinion if your interested in checking it out:
www.123test.com/personality-test/
Hello Frank, I enjoyed your ways on video and want to defend you, claiming that that big-5 test is not covering the truth at all. The human being is much bigger than that, only psychology ends with...psychology, the soul, but doesn't cover the spirit.
Now, I don't know the test you paid to do, but I did Jordan Peterson's Self-authoring Suite, enthusiastically expectant after all positive I head and read about it. Without his engaged presence, its text was not really speaking to my soul, and I got pretty stressed and sour at how that program was made, mainly that one could only write 2000 words, was then cut off,- without it saying at start , so that one could have made another disposition. He said one could write as much as one liked, which was not true. One also got no help to get in touch with one's inner self and life, and being isolated and sick, down, I didin't get in touch with my life, but wrote rather mechanically. So that great thing was not great for me, - just said as a parallel.
The big 5-test_ Please don't take it as 100% truth about you, because it is not! The free one I did 2 times, is kind of superficial, uses common language and simple sentences and examples that I didn't feel comfortable with. And the whole narrow way of answering yes and no in various degrees, wirthout the possibility of BOTH, - in different life-situations, moods,aspects of truth! Also, a very modest human might under-report, and there is room for very individual interpretations of their questions/implications. F example liking to go to parties may depend on what kind of aprties it is, how much isoaltion one has been oín, how much one feels like seeing people in a simpler way just at some time, and if one has had serious one -to-one talks, one may feel like a party even if it is not one's normal style.
As for agreeableness, there is such a big difference if it is a co-dependent, harmless, immature kid of human or an inwardly active, healing, present one, so the answers don't really tell that much.
If i may say something personal, i thought you seem a very nice man and got far too low scores , f ex extroversion: Unless you are very different in real life not on videos, I donä't think you should have that high score on introversion. Or am I wrong to think one is more inhibited then also?
As for conscientiousness, that also seems to be too low score for you, both your room, your appearance and your organized speech/soul doesn't seem to correspond very much to that, even if one brushes up a bit for the video, hahaha!
Neuroticism are you really that high? How would you be a woman trapped in a mans body, I don't think so.
I can't quite get whether you really take this test seriously and recommend it (I have Aspergers) or if you are being cynical about it really. because you don'ät seem to take your results hard, but seem very relaxed about them.
I think that test seems to be an insult to your real self. And it doesn't take into account that ppl can do it before or after nerve-healing. and all sorts of situations that will not convey the real personality.
I am highly agreeable really, but not so much because of extreme long-term stress, exhaustion, being life-threateningly abused, living in dangerous, uncertainty all the time and have got fearful-aggressive, stressed, sleep deprived, and cant be a s nice as I really am. It is a Q of energy and nerve strength.
Ill hear more vids by you, it was pleasant , your calm sense. Stay yourself.

Dude you make your bed. That counts
Kim Hobbs I'm always amazed by people who make their beds.
Kim Hobbs I never make mine ever.
My Nan used to say if all you ever do is make your bed you'll fool a lot of people.
True! I scored high in conscientiousness, and I NEVER make my bed.
Only for the video
Your humor is SPOT on. I was cracking up for the entire video😂 All your videos are awesome and I feel less lonely in my INFJ world💜
same here - was crackin up a lot too hahaha
Same!
Same!! So thankful for Frank!
Thats hes openness
same now after 3 y
“I really love being organized and orderly but I just never take the time to do it.”
My soul sings to this.
That's why I just started doing minimalism lol.
If you don't act, it means it's not that important to you, so basically you're low in orderliness.
Libra love organizing things in the most aesthetically pleasing way, but you are DREAMING if you think I’m going to come home from a 10 hour shift to organize everything.
@@chronometa HaHa! Just like me.
This line cracked me up 🤣.
Je suis capable de ranger couleur par couleur mes vêtements certains jour. Et avec plaisir. Mais d'autres, vivre dans ma chambre, c'est comme vivre dans un dépotoir.
I am almost 50 years old and I've spent my entire life feeling like a freak. I absolutely adore your videos. It's like you are saying everything that goes on to my mind. I have felt so alone most of my life and it's so nice to know that you and your followers are out there, even though I generally don't seem to run into you. But I guess that's because we're all hanging out in our own heads and not with each other.
I am 45 and feel like a disaster...I sent his upload " All Empaths Have These 3 Personality Traits" to my husband...I wanted him to tell me if it sounds like me..He said yes in so many ways...I was not surprised...I would rather be in a creek out in the middle of nowhere looking for rocks then dealing with people...(rockhound)..I have more trust in critters then people...I was born and raised in Kentucky,but now I live in Bavaria,Germany...Sometimes I have a chance to have friends...but I back out like a crawdad...it's all my fault ...I also see things others don't....yeah "ghosts" my mother was afraid of me and told me as a kid to keep my mouth shut...I am afraid of what others may think of me...My husband calls it a gift ......I call it a curse...sorry for the long read....I just needed to get it out...
@@racheallange2056
In your defense, Bavarians are imo not very welcoming towards newcomers. Come to Northrine Westphalia, we're grumpy but nice underneath!
@@nellautumngirl LOL My husband is Bavarian... :)
Racheal Lange, I’m 44 and have everything you do and probably more! (It’s not a contest, but I am competitive 😁) I want to talk about ur ghost stuff. Like what you actually experienced. When I was a kid, I visited a wheat farm. On this farm, as with lots of farms, old homestead houses and barns were scattered around.i remember walking to this abandoned house probably 2 stones throw away from my family. It was a very small, 2 story house, old as shit, disrepair, last used probably 50 years ago. As I walked in, I felt this invisible wave go through me, made me feel a little nauseous. I had this distinct feeling I was being watched. There was no reason for this feeling, but it did not go away until I left the house. Have you experienced anything like that?
Yeah his recent videos are funny and informative but they are not nearly as connectable and I really miss these old ones he does
You're kind of hypnotic. I bet you're a very calming accountant. If anyone had to tell me I owed 10k, I would hope it would be someone like you. 😂
Right? I was listening to one of Frank's other videos while doing some work and I was just like "...I could listen to him talk all day."
problem is someone like him probably hates telling people bad news like me and would never in a million years work in that department
@@yatokami1783 he does other people's taxes for a living. He said that in some previous video, but I'm not sure if he is technically an accountant.
@@masonserna9212 Which video?
calming but not so calm
I took the test when you talked about it in last video. I never realized that my extremely high neuroticism is what keeps ruining my life (and self-confidence). Glad I took it. Peterson has some videos for "high neuroticism and high openness to experience" and implying his advice helps. Organizing and cleaning my house, having "external" affairs in order helps to feel better. He is basically saying that doing that helps us to tame neuroticism and lets us concentrate on creativity and the stuff we're good at which is normally suppressed by neuroticism.
Whats an example of an external affair
funny i arrived to this video after lookinh petersons video
m.th-cam.com/video/l6zvhENsbi8/w-d-xo.html
I have mixed feelings about this test. But totally aside from that, I'm just enjoying the constantly sarcastic(?)-sounding tone of your voice in this video, it's hilarious.
Get a room...
The big 5 personality measure is the gold standard but if u mean how extreme his results are then yeah I feel like something was going on there.
Edit: perhaps it's just a consequence of utilising a self-report measure.
Hi, you're definitely not a loser, I love your personality and demeanor
From one 62 yr old female INFJ to a a 'fellow' INFJ, I love your humor. Just bumped into your live blog, and find it a friendly counselor to hear your honest flow of thoughts.
I hear you. I agree with you.
Rather new to MBriggs, as stated above, I am INFJ; my hubby, INTJ. (I talk to him like you share here! It's therapeutic.)
Keep it up. ~ Debbie
The self deprecation here is so satisfyingly hilarious. I get it, I get it
"It looks like I'm a people pleasing, lazy shut in who is basically on the verge of some kind of meltdown".
And finally, I don't feel so alone anymore! I have found my people!
Also I got 6% on conscientiousness and I'm a human shaped ball of guilt, shame, and self disgust. So it seems that I would like to be conscientious, but I'm basically malfunctioning and hating myself for it.
same doing this just confirmed my undiagnosed ADHD
In my opinion i guess a lot of INFJ will share a quite similar composition, very high level of neuroticism and openness. And unfortunately those are like opposing traits, we're helplessly curious about a lot of things and have a huge desire to explore new field but at the same time our neuroticism tends to hold ourself back because of the obsessive thoughts like "what if bad things happen," "what if i'm doing it wrong" "what will other people say", etc so we unconsciously contradict ourself in daily basis. That's probably how we start to feel overwhelmed :'). I previously found a video of Jordan Peterson explaining that having these two opposing traits in high level will likely make us stressed, so we have to maintain our conscientiousness in moderate level in order to balance that by building routinity and stick to that pattern. IMHO establishing a routine will help us feel grounded and may prevent our brain to perpetually fall into those never-ending contradiction ^^
I agree with you bc my results were pretty similar to his.
I was blaming it on my falling deep into born again religion at 14, probably saved my life from getting knocked up, OD'ing or marrying at all but fir wrong reasons for sure, and running with some crowd after the dead, cuz all psychadelic stuff scares me, and I think I don't really live like I want so conservative peopke wont be scared of or distain me.
Huh, is that neurotic or smart?
As an INFP I totally relate to what you were saying about orderliness. I love and yearn to be more organized but I don’t mind mess all that much; although when things are organized I feel more at peace.
I feel you dude. Jordan Peterson didn’t feature any videos about people with personalities like ours. Literally first percentile of conscientiousness here😂 with low industrious and orderliness too (both under 10th percentile) but 96th percentile openness to experience, 94th intellect and 93rd openness.
I was born to fail at life and live in my head tbh
Don't listen to Jordan Peterson. He's a fraud and a swindler, and a troll in a respectable suit. He uses psychology to piggyback politics, and if I'd have turned in one of his papers into my uni, it would have been instant F. It looks impressive, sounds impressive, but it's not the real deal.
@@johnknight9150 i don't think so bro ... U saw Frank agreeing to most of the result and then giving examples how that they were true ... JP has some credible criticisms about himself ... but nt that he is completely a fraud ... everyone throughout history had some criticisms ... even Ghandhi.
@@dhruvgupta794 Never mind what Frank James does or doesn't say, that's a logical error called Appeal to Authority - let the data speak for itself. JP uses massive leaps in logic that don't add up and horrendously misrepresents the sources he claims to be quoting, because he's banking on the fact that you probably won't check his sources and will simply take his word for it. Check his sources.
I know JP is acting fraudulently because I've seen him do it. I can give you two simple examples if you like.
@@johnknight9150 I am aware of his criticisms, best done by Nathan Robinson in his article "The Intellectual we Deserve" (heard about it in a Noam Chomsky podcast). Anyways the main point Nathan keeps repeating in that is that JP doesn't say anything much new or extremely profound (bear responsibility, speak truth etc, etc,) and the other things he claims to be more insightful is pretty flawed, but the simpler things that he advocates (bear responsibilities, speak truth, freedom of speech and equality in opportunity not in outcome), not many people were advocating them befor him which are crucially important topics ... Nathan blamed education institutions and some other things for it ... therefore JP is a "Intellectual we Deserve" ... There are some critisisms of this article too ...
Now his personality test ... My cousin sister took it and she too found it pretty helpful, I am not lying, unless you decide that I am, then I cannot do anything about.
@@dhruvgupta794 Well that stuff's all relatively subjective, I'd rather point to something objectively verifiable and not simply open to interpretation.
For an example, if you take his appearance on Dr Oz (already a bad combination!), found here:
th-cam.com/video/i-Eb76X3upk/w-d-xo.html
....he shows the audience the Big Five system and what their personality type is based on the Big Five model.
This is absolutely not how the Big Five system works. People aren't "Extroverted Types" or "Openness Types". The Big Five system works by using a combination of five personality factors, based on Extroversion, Agreeableness, Openness, Conscientiousness, and Neuroticism. Each is a sliding scale, and a researcher receives measurements in all five scales.
Conclusions are then drawn by what your readings are in all the scales, and the scales all work together. For instance, people prone to a certain kind of mental illness might be high in one particular scale and low in another. Or people with a particular political preference might be high on two scales and low on two others, etc. etc.
This is First Year, First Term, First Semester, Psych 101 stuff that any psychology student knows. Jordan Peterson knows darn well that this is not how the Big Five model works, but he has come up with this supermarket magazine nonsense, presumably to get a nice appearance fee on national television, but that's speculation.
Here's something Im good at: Neuroticism! 😂
Love your videos!
Based on the impression I get from your videos, you have an impressive and organized work ethic. You certainly seem much higher in conscientiousness. I think the issue is that people who score higher in neuroticism tend to be less flattering answering other sections of the test, and end up understating their qualities as a result.
I'm surprised at some of these results. I think it is very brave of you to have put yourself on camera at all to have this channel. I have noticed that other people seem to have a much higher opinion of me, than I have of myself.
Recovering Soul yes I get this a lot too, I’ve been very open about my ups and downs this year on Instagram and when I’m down I get a crap load of support and people saying how much I mean to them.
Originally I was skeptical about some “defining” traits of INFJs but but watching a lot of your videos and how I related to you extremely well made me a lot more content with being typed as an INFJ. I truly love how much I relate to you and hope that one day I may get to talk to you more in depth about life experiences bad and good. Keep it up Frank James
Exactly my thoughts about Frank's videos.😊 I'm glad.
Judging by the exceptional quality and production rate of your videos, I’m certain you are much higher in conscientiousness than the test suggests - especially in industriousness. I think the problem is that people higher in neuroticism tend to be harder on themselves on all other aspects of the Big Five.
You're end summary is basically a summary of my life. So, maybe I don't need to take this test now. Hah.
Don't be so hard on yourself with contentiousness and industriousness. Both tend to be strongly correlated in the big five with a willingness to comply with authourity or external expectations.
INFJ generally buck authority at even the subconscious level....they hate it...as for being industrial...INFJ generally hate being obliged or coerced into doing things for others...but can be very driven when we choose to do things ourselves. In other words in self-determination theory INFJ ranks autonomy and agency right up top (while others would place relationships or mastery higher in priority).
The big five tends to be very biased in this area and does not have enough nuance to differentiate between autonomy seeking and 'refusal' to 'work' i.e. it cannot tell you why you 'refuse to work'
First time hearing of this test but thanks to you I had to check it out. The waves were pretty high in my OCEAN.....lol O-96%, C-62.5%, E- 13%, A- 90%, N- 83%. Interesting to say the least. I can definitely relate to liking things to be organized but can't seem to get my life nearly as organized as I would like. I know that it would help my anxiety tremendously but am never motivated enough to complete it! Really enjoying your videos! I don't usually leave comments but this feels like a safe place and you're so relatable.
I have almost the same scores as you except I’m high in extraversion. I just found your channel and it’s so comforting finding a little community of people interested in this type of thing and people like me. I feel like we would be good friends. Your videos are great. Keep it up :)
Loved the vid, Frank. Thanks for sharing.
Your next online profile should definitely say, “I’m a people pleasing, lazy shut in. That’s on the verge of a public meltdown. But I am good at creating things, because I’m open.” With the headline, more creative than the average bear. 🤣
I love your videos Frank! I just took the big five yesterday and scored almost the opposite from you and I’m an ENFJ . I find it very interesting. But I love your humor! Your videos always crack me up and/or put a smile on my face :)
Precious video. This just helped me in my I'm-at-nowhere meltdown. Thanks, brother.
Hey Frank. When I wanted a real reference regarding the big 5, gotta say you were the #1 and only person or site/channel I wanted to hear from. I feel your honesty. Im an Infj skeptic, and appreciate ANY source I can enjoy or gain understanding from. Your vids are a fabulous combination of ingredients. If you read this by some great chance...thanks!
This whole video was tragically hilarious. I especially laughed out loud when you called your self a moody bastard, as this is the "baddest" word I've ever heard you say on a video 😂.
Agreeableness 1st
-Compassion 7th
-Politeness 0th
Conscientiousness 38th
-Industriousness 50th
-Orderliness 30th
Extraversion 2nd
-Enthusiasm 0th
-Assertiveness 22nd
Neuroticism 98th
-Withdrawal 94th
-Volatility 98th
Openness to Experience 96th
-Intellect 94th

I finally got around to taking this:
Agreeableness: 87
Conscientiousness: 78
Extraversion: 20
Neuroticism: 72
Openness To Experience: 15
I also type as an INFJ. Favorite part of the video was at the 8:30 mark. It's great that you can have such a good sense of humor... love the serious undertones. I'm glad you're good at creating things!
Sup Frank, I hope you are well. I wanted to drop by to say I appreciate how well you are able to articulate the quirks and contradictions that crop up for us. It's uncanny. I can't tell if there are other INFJs thinking "Shit, my dishes piled up and then I moved city shortly after..." or if it's just me, but there seems to be something so relatable in other INFJs as if we are all struggling separately together. Not in a negative way. It feels like a blessing to recognize the depth. That's where I think the Big 5 misses the mark for us. It doesn't give us the meaning portion that INFJs crave. It just sets us against others quantitatively when we feel qualitatively different, or we feel like we notice that other people may be thinking way differently. We certainly feel, I think, that other people are not as aware of their own thoughts as we are of our own, and theirs too. I did the test on another site and received similarly higher scores in Openness and Neuroticism, but I don't find those descriptions comprehensive or a description of what's going on when I'm about info and it's coming in. Reading an INFJ profile, it feels extremely meaningful and my spidey senses start tinglging. I can't get through it without giggling in recognition of what's going on here. It could just be that I care more for concepts than math, and I'm missing the point and need to do more work. Anyway, I'd love to hear your thoughts if you get the time. Thanks for more videos; using them like mirrors to go deeper. Take care and sending positive thoughts and love.

wow this gave me a good laugh, thank youuuu! :)
If the dishes pile up.. set it all on fire and move to a different city aha ha Ha Your 1% industriousness bullies your 25% orderliness.
Teresa Triumph I used to work with a guy, and his wife went to another country to visit relatives. He found out she was returning early.
He had used all the dishes and pots and pans and the old food was crusted on. So....he threw it all away and bought new stuff. Told me his wife was confused when she got back. He told her some nonsense about how he loved her so much he got new stuff. It was hilarious and tragic at the same time. I just think we should be honest with our spouse.
Recovering Soul yeah hilarious and painful are the measures that people take for themselves 😆
When I was a child, my mother assigned me to clean all the dishes and at the end of the task were the nasty pots and pans staring back at me, mocking. I didn't want any part of that action so I carried them out the back door and threw them into the bonfire. She noticed her only pots missing, found them, and busted my behind with her cedar paddle!
That's why FJ's comment hit my funny bone.
I hate dishes so I do them first. Does that mean I am a martyr or that I am proactive? Lmao.
Teresa Triumph on the humourous nature scale he scores 90% 😂
When you have no mouth but you have to scream.
The conclusion was articulated so well !
LOL well you're my favorite neurotic shut-in. It seems like the test did a good job of capturing who you think you are - not sure if it can possibly represent who you really are or how others see you, though. Thanks for sharing and I love your videos!
I got 98% on neuroticism and i think I got 99% for openness to experience. Cant quite remember my others but they were relatively balanced like i was mid range for the others ish. I like this test, it's very good and a great supplement to the MBTI when trying to work yourself out and how you relate to others. I also have a diagnosuis of BPD that was given to me using the DSM by a psychologist, and I have an INFP - T personality type, they all seem to be pointing at similar things in me, I think each are useful psychological tools for understanding and ordering an understanding of yourself but not as a solid definition. I like to think each of us has a unique soul that transcends our personality and temperament, like a wild card so to speak... Another awesome video dude.
Made me laugh. It's like I'm watching myself. Too relatable.
More infjs need to take this, I'm so interested in all of our results!!! DO IT!!!!

I just love how far you've come from this video three years ago, to your success on TH-cam now in 2021. In FJ we trust 😎
You're hilarious! And I feel like you'd make a natural counselor. I love your videos!!
We have the same profile. Some people work to live, i work to pay for my never ending therapy.
That's awesome! Listening to it at double speed makes it twice as fun!
one of your bestest videos! love your sense of humor.
I enjoy your commentary so much. You had me laughing out loud at the conclusion of this video. Thanks. I needed that. :-)
Oh my, you crack me up! I was laughing the whole time. Guess I'm not surprised tho as I'm an ENFP and apparently that's why I can appreciate you! Thanks for the fun video!
02:41 Frank: "Sometimes I wonder if I'm actually high in conscientiousness but have some kind of problem... that makes me not work??!".
This actually made me burst into laughter since I feel the very same way, and it just makes no sense. It's kind of like being inclined to the worst possible work ethic a human being can have, whilst sort of being aware of it and therefore trying to combat that behaviour by judging yourself as harshly as a person with 100% score in conscientiousness would do. Like WHY do that to yourself? Shit's weird fam.
Man I needed this after today, laughed throughout it, thank you!
I looked at your play lists and didn't see the Strength Finder 2.0
I know this Big Five kinda shook you, so how about doing the Strength Finder? Be interesting to see a live "unboxing" too. (Or score reveal).
Thanks for sharing your creativity here...very refreshing!
I just took this test yesterday and totally in denial of the result, youtubuing for hours landed to your video.. And we are very similar except I am a man trapped in a woman's body.. LOL
I’m compassionate and polite but don’t feel like a women stuck in a mans body .
its the hormones...too much oestrogen in the body from the hormoned milk and meats as well chemicals in the plastics too...watch dr josh axe on youtube 4 more info:) btw i know its sarcasm :)
Same. I tell people that I'm a gay boy born in full drag lol
It's the best way that I can think of to describe how I feel about myself
at least, you are on the 99 percentile in non-industriousness...
Oh my goodness! I’m trying to keep quiet while watching this, but you got this serious INFJ laughing so much! I found your channel a few weeks ago, and I am trying to catch up. Oh my goodness! You get me! I get you! Love your channel!
I spent a good deal of my life learning things that would shore up what I considered my weaker side. So I would never need another person so much that I would sacrifice those who depend on me to get these areas covered. Believe me, it has been an experience I appreciated. Confidence builder!!! Also kind of like pulling a plow through a dry field of clay. I asked myself, what is the world was I thinking? No one told me to do that. Boy am I excited about the fun stuff! the things I have a natural affinity for.
I love and respect orderliness but I am a disorganized mess. My place looks it’s been ransacked but the positive thing is that if someone broke in to rob me they would just leave because they would think “oh somebody’s already been here “. Yes FJ I wanna take that test to see what a hot mess I am. Thx for 411. have a great evening, I guess.👍🏻
Lara O'neal you're funny : if someone broke in, they'd think someone's already been here, why bother' ha ha ha.
I saw a meme I totally relate to: "I want a house clean enough that it doesn't look like we're 5 days into fighting a poltergeist".. #myhouse

I am glad I watched this as my scores were quite similar to your scores and was feeling depressed about the results. I think the scorer is anti-INFJ.
Hey Frank! Great videos! Just a little "math geekin" here but Percentiles work differently then percentages they operate on a bell curve. 60th percentile means better then average for intellect and 25 th percentile isn't really bad for orderliness it means if you put you in a random group of 4 people you'd probably be the least orderly of 4 ... the really low and really high percentiles make you an extreme outlier. Though assuming they are accurate 4 th percentile conscientiousness and 97 percentile neuroticism would probably make it a safe bet that your I.Q is high given the state of your channel.
A little bit more geekin out but how did they bin the data? How did they normalize the distribution? When I hear the word Percentile out in the layman world I cringe because I really DO seek clarity as chaotic as others see me.
I was into the big 5 for a while, being into Jordan B Petersons lectures and so forth. Made alot of theories about how different MBTI types matched the scores of OCEAN (abbreviation for the 5 traits). Both the perceiving introverted types Si and Ni are somewhat even when it comes to Openness and Consciousness, the big difference is that the other value one of the traits more. There is this idea in socionics that the last trait, the 8th trait is unconsciously very strong. But I agree with that. INFJ tend to have very good memories, and are very able to sustain what they have learnt, which are both traits of strong Si.
I would say that
Openness is more or less high in N and T (the dichotomy of N - S, and T - F)
Consciousness is high in Si (the dichotomy of Si - Ne)
Extroversion is high in Se or weirdly enough Ne (the dichotomy of Se - Ni and Ne - Si)
Agreeableness is high in F (the dichotomy of F - T)
Neuroticism is also high in N (the dichotomy of Ni - Se / Ne - Si)
- Neuroticism is tricky though, I do believe that unhealthy Si dominant can be very neurotic and judgmental, something that really shows itself in poor mental health and lack of self reflection, even in paranoia.
This is a very simplistic model, but i do believe that most personality models describe more or less the same traits, and in doing so widely correlates with one other.
I would say that what the big 5 don't have, is this outdated idea that thinking and feeling are two dichotomies, that MBTI have. In that regard the MBTI is very old and in many ways misogynist. We cannot forget that MBTI is based on Carl Jung's Personality Types, and even though he was a revolutionary man with amazing ideas, he still was a man of the Victorian age, where women where considered not to posses the thinking capacities of the "rational" man. (Just a little history lesson.) This is very very important, because the thinking - feeling dichotomy is in my opinion a fallacy. Rationality (T) and Compassion (F) aren't two opposites, and both can be valued or devalued. In truth the opposite of thinking is well, not to think and use your brain? And the same goes from feeling... and be completely heartless...
To think that being a feeling type you have quote "strong values" but tend to be irrational, is a very strange way of think about your self.. And to think that being a thinking type you have no compassion but are very rational, is equally strange. It just dont add up, and should like OCEAN/Big 5 be separated.
Your videos are your gift!!!💜
''Now we're getting to the stuff i like ! *Neuroticism* '' 😂
Damn i'm acing this test 😂 Frank you're seriously my fav infj in this world ! Your sense of humor is superior i was laughing the whole tiime 😂❤ and i always feel totally understood after watching your videos ! For example when you said ''I can take charge of a situation , i just don't like it'' & ''I don't think i'm good at things but it doesn't mean i'm not'' i could relate 100% , i'll take the test 😀 (and probably get an 98% on neuroticism 😏)
Conscientiousness & your video on perfectionism paralysis.
This video had me smiling the whole time! So funny and relatable. Don’t sell yourself short. Conscientious can be learned, I am not so sure that is as true of openness. Have you looked at the Enneagram? You sound like you might be a Four... also known as “the individualist” or “the romantic” or “the artist”.
Healthy fours are amazing. My spiritual mentor is an INFJ four.
1 and 2 and 5 I got almost the same exact results as you (and I also think I'm a closet conscientious person, just not capable of... acting). Extroversion for me was average or moderately low. Neuroticism for me was very low. Makes sense as I believe I'm an ENTP.
This made my day. 😂😂😂 I feel like this every time I take a personality test. 😆
Your results are quite similar to mine. I'm an ENFP-T. I got the same as you in consciousness, agreeableness and openness to experience. Only difference were neuroticism (mine was 30 per cent) and extroversion (mine was 80 per cent). Interesting to see the similarities and difference in the XNFX types.
Also, as an INFJ fellow, I got 95% on agreeableness but I didn't find it as being a doormat, because I just like to be kind and altruistic and fair to others which just makes me happy! I also got practically the complete opposite on the others, where in neuroticism I'm low because I try to be as cheerful and enthusiastic as possible as it is very good for my health by staying optimistic and can lift everyones' spirits! :3
I find it extremely insightful to look at both MBTI and OCEAN (Big 5). Four of the five traits are correlated, although MBTI does not evaluate neuroticism, or tendency toward negative emotion. Enjoy comparing your results!
PS - Another interesting personality test to try is the Enneagram!
Frank, you’re amazing! So smart, funny and deep all in one.
Openness to Experience: 96%
Conscientiousness: 25%
Extroversion: 8%
Agreeableness: 25%
Neuroticism: 96%
Guess my MBTI:
That was awesome and hilarious. Loved your recap I loled. I noticed a few of these about you. Now I have to take it
Hey Frank, I've been bouncing around your old vlogs and I wondered if you ever wound up taking the big 5 test more recently? I know that you made this video during one of the darker periods in your life where you were experiencing some depression and since the big 5 personality traits can fluctuate quite a bit throughout a person's life, it'd be interesting to see what they are like now that I can clearly tell you have a big more confidence and are doing better in your mental health. Maybe the results wouldn't be quite so, uh... disheartening. ;)
I got Agreeableness - 65 (Compassion 72, politeness 52), Conscientiousness - 90 (Industriousness 85, orderliness 88), Extraversion 31 (enthusiasm 3, assertiveness 81), Neuroticism 34 (Withdrawal 31, volatility 38), Openness to experience - 89 (intellect 89, openness 80)
The final minutes of the video are just precious
ha ha, loved the summary at the end. Sounds like you have all the makings of a mad scientist about to take over the world! But seriously, you basically just described much of the "genius" we've seen in history (ex: Beethoven).
Would totally love to see FJ retake this test, he's grown over the years! 👍
LMAO “tornado swept through and then a bomb went off.” Me. Lmfao
I think this is my favorite video of yours so far. I could not help laugh the whole way through it. Not that I am laughing at you but you are so damn funny. Now you’ve got me wanting to take the stupid test. And I’m quite busy so I don’t know if I’ll have time to do it right now. But I know I’m damn well going to take that test just for the fun of it. And maybe I’ll make a video of it so I can laugh at myself. Because I really need to laugh at myself. I am extremely serious most of the time. Thank you!!
I just took this test and I’ve never felt worse about myself.
Bec Wakefield if you were highly neurotic theres a good chance you were just being overly critical and are better than what you scored.
It's only a starting point. Self discovery can lead to growth. It's not all who you are, it's only one perspective too.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve literally thrown the dirty dishes away and bought new ones. Omg, I have found my tribe!!! 🙌
Bec Wakefield get paper plates 😅
Bec, why not just eat over the sink?
Same here, the thought depresses me more now! And laughing at burning the house down comment too! 🤣
Oh my gosh!!! you are so sooooooo funny and you are naturally that way too, because nobody can fake that level of humor as it only comes when someone is being their honest natural self :)
Stay awesome Bro! ONE
I need to take this test because you are not these things you've changed my life I don't know how these tests can make you feel depressed I don't know I need to take it myself keep up the great work man you're awesome
Since were reciting poetry on this channel I thought I’d recite what came to my mind, “Why, then, ‘tis none to you, for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” As your boy W.S. said, it’s akin to something in the Fall in the Garden, that is where the concepts of right and wrong came into existence. Hence, the results of your personality test are indicative to the psychologists who created them and in the context of society. What I’m trying to say is that a test can’t define you, only you, yourself can truly define who you really are in your heart. However, that’s subjective as well I suppose, because in that one video about a reunion or so, I did detect some Woody Allen-esque behavior, but it was that subtle humor that we’ve all come to know and love. Anyways, that’s enough ramble, I’m starting to think my cat might be kind of neurotic, but he loves to watch your videos. He also rates high on intellect, so I’ll let you discuss amongst yourselves what you think that could mean about him.😉
P.S. My cat also loves squirrel videos, so I’m not sure how much advice you want to take from him🐾🙂
You are hysterical! I really enjoy your whit and your facial expressions! Don't stop!
Your reactions cracked me up. I took the Big 5 test recently out of curiosity. Apparently compared to everyone else, I'm a hermit vegetable who's slightly intellectual and mildly open. But at least nothing bothers me.
Big fan, your results are fairly similar to mine, made me feel better about myself if I'm a cool cat like you
This was actually hilarious. I was just sat there laughing and going lord please let him get SOME good points 😂 I could feel your soul leaving your body with each word you uttered. MBTI boosts your ego and Enneagram slaps you back to reality 👋 I love it lmao
Frank, I saw one of your video which blasted me out, I just wanna share that experience with you. You won't believe it!!
Thanks for these videos, Frank!
Hi again, My name is Kathryn, a fellow INFJ and I am the commenter that inquired about an email address for you on the Feel like hot garbage video, I get it if you don’t feel like sharing it, but this video made me certain that I should go ahead and share with you what I was going to in email, I am a Mother of three, two adults one 10 year old, two of my children have “Mild” Aspergers Syndrome, not detectable by anyone unless they know a lot about it and know them very well. Anyone they reveal that information about themselves to are very surprised, So much of what you say about yourself and INFJ things that you really connect to, and the test results here you say you connect to, and a lot of what you describe struggling with and wondering about in a lot of your videos really, makes me feel even more that you, who are working so hard on self understanding, might benefit from exploring the possibility of being somewhere “ on the spectrum”, it could help you find answers to the whys ( why am I like this or that) and much more. Peace, love and light.
I laughed out loud when you said "Oh now to the stuff I'm good at... neuroticism." That's just too relatable :P
I laughed so hard! You were so funny!
I enjoyed your video. I usually don't comment on videos.
I'm seriously laughing so hard at this, I'm an INTP and I still love watching these videos loll
I wonder how I would score on one of these tests the last time I was confused because I had to abnormal extreme traits, that cancelled each other out causing the test to say that I was normal.
You make me laugh, and that is what I need now. Thank you. You are very intelligent and funny. I discovered your channel the other day and can't stop watching it now. 😘🤣❤
