In my MBTI® Certification workshops participants respond to the instruction -“Describe your type using words, phrases, or pictures.” I find these visual representations of type preferences help illustrate individual differences.

Here is a photo of a response from an individual who has INTP personality type preferences.

I love the phrase “Seeks logical explanations for everything of interest” and the way the individual provides an example using a logical reason for choosing compassion (a “Feeling” word) over competency when answering the MBTI® question.

This is page one of a two-page description. Stay tuned for four more great points this individual offers about INTP personality type preferences coming up in my next illustrations post.

You may also enjoy looking at how other INTP groups have completed this illustration of type exercise.

As you look through the other illustrations you can see the logical, theoretical approach people with these preferences tend to take.

If you are interested in seeing how people with different type preferences complete this exercise, check out the Illustrations of Type series.
