Jung Typology Reflection


I took the Jung typology test. My results were ISTJ, introverted, sensing with extraverted thinking. Some of the characteristics of this type are responsible, planner, organized, detail oriented, punctual, and private. These are all characteristics that I would use to describe myself. There were a couple of characteristics that I read about that I don’t possess, one is anti-tattoos. I have three, and I don’t mind if people have them, I just think they should be tasteful and not on the neck and face. The other one is doesn’t accept apologies easily. I do accept apologies but I don’t forget easily. I learned that I’m not creative or musically inclined. Some of the disfavored careers for my type are; entertainer, artist, singer, massage therapist, and journalist. The one that surprised me was journalist, but I guess you have to be around a lot of people and feel comfortable around new people and that is not me. Some of the favored careers are; data analyst, financial planner, engineer and office worker. I am a senior assistant in an office, and I love my job.

            I learned that being ISTJ will help me with writing and being a student. I believe with my attention to detail and ability to complete tasks on time that I will get my assignments done in a timely manner. I am always looking ahead to make sure I get my work done and it’s done correctly. This test showed me that I will need to work on working in groups and joining in on the conversation rather than sitting back and listening.

  1. Don't forget to include the why and the how in your reflections. How will knowing your type help you as a student and writer? Define this indicators for your reader as they apply to yourself. ~Ms. A.
