Personality systems and blind people. (self.Blind)
submitted by estj136
If this forum is just focused on blind specific issues and not a more general place to talk then let me know.

Has anyone else taken personal typing tests? MBTI, Enneagram, other such tests? What are your scores? What is your experience , as a blind person with your type?

I feel like having 7w8 in my Enneagram plus the blind person’s dignity and independence is interesting. The free Spirite, don’t control me type of thing plays on the blind independent thing a lot.

Also being a blind ESTj and a main core type 1w2 countervice type, makes it a bigger drive for order, organization, and rules for such. I like it that way, plus as a blind person it’s really hard to find if you move my stuff.

MBTI is fun as a curiosity but a lot of it has been debunked. If you want an interesting personality test that is widely used, try the big 5 test.
estj136 [OP] 1 points 5y ago
Well, whatever it is big five can you link those number with how you deal with blindness? Do you enhance what you do or clash with it?

I don't understand the question. How does blindness effect the results?
estj136 [OP] 1 points 5y ago
No, the other way results and who you are effect the way you deal with blindness. And how?

How has your personality driven you to handle blindness according to something like an indicator?

I have used this evaluation called strengths finder. It told me that discipline and focus were my core strengths. I think that being cling blind has forced me to be more organized and disciplined. Also listening to a lot of audiobooks as well as listening to voiceover all day has really positively increased my levels of focus

Oh wow! I’ve never heard of that one.

That’s interesting.

I do think blindness does teach us both for sure. If you’re not well it’s hard to function, especially on the organization.

I'm an INTJ. About half of programmers are INTJ, supposedly. I do use programming to solve issues and practical related to blindness.

I'm an infj but I don't put much stock in it.
