Marmylade?  That's Marmy-poo to you!


Arrrgh!  I just had one of those annoying experiences where a post disappears while typing it.

My knowledge of Jungian typology is extensive, but I don't think I've ever heard of Humphrey-Osgood or of the book Understanding Understanding.  As you guessed, I'm using the MBTI system, but I'm familiar with some other ones.  I find Socionics confusing and can't say I know it well.

I'd like to hear more about Humphrey-Osgood if you'd like to share.  Also, I'm all ears about those other typologies you mentioned.

Here are some of the specific type forums that are all fairly active.  Unfortunately, not all types equally enjoy being on forums.  Its basically INPs and NTs that predominate on-line.

Here is a more general forum, but it has a section for each of Kiersey's Temperaments.  You can find many INFJs on this forum… and a small smattering of STs.

Also, I've seen threads with type polls on atheist forums.  They tend to be mostly INTJs with INTPs as a close second, but also with a decent number of INFPs.  Here is a thread I started about this at Open Source Integral.
