The '''Myers-Briggs''' Temperament Indicator measures and typifies how people perceive the world and make decisions.
 
The categories originated from Carl Jung's theory about two pairs of cognitive functions:
Line 63:
 
* '''ENTJ'''s ([http://www.keirsey.com/4temps/fieldmarshal.asp Fieldmarshals]) enjoy making plans and carrying them out. They make really good leaders, but have trouble ''not'' being objective and accounting for emotions. They are fact-driven and good at highlighting inefficiencies. Possibly a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] or [[Evil Overlord]].
* '''INTJ'''s ([http://www.keirsey.com/4temps/mastermind.asp Masterminds]) are analytical, pragmatic and logical, and are not scared to [[Deadpan Snarker|tell someone (or themselves) when they're being stupid.]] They emphasize efficiency, making them [[Intelligence Equals Isolation|simultaneously loners]] and excellent leaders. Usually [[The Chessmaster]]. Many [[The Spock|Spocks]] and [[Byronic Hero|Byronic Heroes]]es fall into this category. The [[Ubermensch]] as originally conceived is a sort of "perfect" INTJ.
* '''ENTP'''s ([http://www.keirsey.com/4temps/inventor.asp Inventors]) are clever and analytical, often with quick wits and a quicker tongue. They are very good at thinking outside the box, but (like ENFPs) are easily bored. Frequently a [[Trickster Archetype]]. A common type among [[Magnificent Bastard|Magnificent Bastards]]s.
* '''INTP'''s ([http://www.keirsey.com/4temps/architect.asp Architects]) are loners with a love of information and a knack for logic and knowledge. This can lead to [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]], but also the opposite, as INTPs are best at describing complex ideas simply. Frequently [[The Spock]], [[The Professor]], an [[Absent-Minded Professor]] and sometimes [[Mad Scientist]] falls into this category.
