Btw keep in mind my mother was ahead of her time. Which is why I feel more like a late civic/artist. But my personality type also plays a part in that....ISFP. This makes me happy that with time people will move in this direction and will become a bit more civil for it.
I'm not at all surprised. Not all members of a generation exhibit the properties of the dominant archetype. In fact, there has to be some degree of balance to keep things on a more or less even keel. A split of 20%/20%/20%/40% still leaves the dominant archetype in charge of the message. I'm sure the balance varies from generation to generation, but the pattern still follows.
I've always wanted to see a study done to see if the ratios of Myers Briggs personality types shifts cyclically and in sync with the S&H cycles. It's as close as I can come to an empirical proof of the cycle's existence. Better yet, I suspect that such a study would reveal stuff unexpected that we'd have to explain.
That's a great idea, but a hard one to implement. Myers-Briggs testing is usually either voluntary, and not good sampling practice, or workplace driven, and typically tied to specific roles -- sales being the most common. Look at the over abundance of INTPs and on this board. That's certainly an example of voluntary testing.
I have the same interest as you do in a cohort-based random testing process, but I have never seen one and have no idea how to get one going.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
