Seen this article for some time and it can be true. Some tests have very vague black with white questions, that easily dish out intuitive results.
As someone who has been studying cognitive functions for years and types others, I can definitely say that most mistypes root from a misunderstanding of MBTI as a whole. A lot of the people who claim they are certain types don’t really know themselves all that well. I know it’s kinda weird for me to tell people who they are, but it’s true. I definitely think these tests prey on people who lack a self identity, and give them general statements applicable to any human being to make them feel special. This is referred to as Barnum Effect.
Also: most people don’t even understand Ni, believing that it’s gut feeling or some vision…. I would say gut feeling is lower Ni….
