heh, I have this test on my computer))

my result was Robespierre, Logical-Intuitive Introvert (LII)....... the result is quite truthful, although not completely)) so, here's an edited version (I removed the untruths)... although maybe even from what remains, not everything is obvious to everyone, because some things are only visible in real life and upon closer acquaintance)


Robespierre, LII [INTj]
Logical-Intuitive Introvert


How interesting this thing called life is!
A focused, attentive gaze, seeing nothing around? - that is immersion not into oneself, but into one's own world.
What is there, in that unknown universe?
They say truth lives there. If only I could find the way to it.
Now, it seems to me, I am taking the first conscious steps toward true values: Freedom, Beauty, Truth and, of course, Love.
But this is not enough. There is one important condition. The desire to convince others of one's own truths, the desire to direct others toward one's own goals, the desire to introduce one's own wishes into the lives of others - is foolish, heartless and useless.
LIIs are usually silent.
Words do not carry truth.
But if he begins to speak, he is worth listening to...
I think - therefore I am
Even in small children of this type, others are struck by an unchildlike seriousness and attentive, focused eyes.
I think always - when I eat, when I walk, watch a movie, listen to music, when I chat with someone about trifles and even when I sleep. I do not tire of thinking. Sometimes these are just fantasies or fragments of some thoughts, and sometimes stunning insights about the world, the universe in which we live.
Sometimes it seems that an LII does not so much live as perceives life. His external detachment from the world, his silent perception of everything happening around - is only to avoid clouding the real, objective picture of existence with his presence. In his mind, he builds a kind of mental model of the entire universe known to him and on this basis tries to find the most global patterns of Life.
Perhaps children of this type are the first to learn to read.
He easily knows how to find the information he needs; by the appearance of a book, he can say quite accurately whether it is worth reading.
Thanks to high reading speed and a good memory, he is usually more erudite than his peers; with his logic and knowledge, he can sometimes corner even an adult. However, parents should not explicitly and loudly place great hopes on him. This stresses him out and increases sensitivity to failures, which are unavoidable.
Man was born to be free
Generally, such a child usually creates no problems for the parents, only for himself - and in huge quantities! In an unfavorable psychological environment, he may become suspicious, and self-analysis turns into soul-searching. He is very afraid of possible troubles (which he often invents himself). Actual troubles, however, he usually handles independently. He does not like to ask for help, but may wait for others to guess and offer it themselves.
Physical labor stresses the LII. On the other hand, he handles monotonous work that doesn't occupy his thoughts quite well. While his hands work in automatic mode, he spends this time on a more interesting activity - thinking. Or just fantasizing. Or both at once.
He has a reasonably developed imagination. However, in situations requiring quick reaction and decision-making, he may "lag." It often happens with him that "a good thought comes later."
Often, analyzing a situation that has already passed, I realize that everything could have been different, had I said this or that. But - alas! Everything is behind us and nothing can be changed.
Therefore, he usually tries to act in such a way as to have at least a little time to rack his brains.
Quite perceptive: his developed logic allows him to see the real causes of events. He can calculate with a sufficient degree of probability how a situation will end. When planning a new venture, he is perhaps best at seeing possible obstacles and "pitfalls"; and the thought of future troubles lying in wait may discourage him from starting anything at all.
LIIs do not always tell others about their plans and stubbornly remain silent about failures. In general, even close people know very little about them.
Distrustful, he acutely feels insincerity or hypocrisy in other people. But if someone behaves assertively and convincingly, hiding deception under a mask of truthfulness, an LII will believe any nonsense - he takes sincerity in lying at face value.
LIIs have a peculiar sense of humor - intricate and paradoxical. Externally, it is expressed in the fact that he often says obvious foolishness using smart words with the most serious expression (and he is a master of this). However, people usually perceive his words no less seriously and sometimes take offense at them. Thus, the LII sometimes has to explain later that "it was a joke." Also, he doesn't know how to tell jokes, so he seems like a "dry" person without the slightest sense of humor to others.
Not all hearts are strangers
All questions related to interpersonal relationships are for an LII an area of doubt and uncertain actions. A good attitude toward someone is expressed by an LII not so much through feelings and emotions, but through practical care for their needs and solving their problems. He experiences certain difficulties when trying to get closer to a person he likes or when wanting to find friends.
Loneliness is the hardest... I hope that I will find friends of purpose, who have chosen with their heart the path that I have chosen...
Most often, his own attempts to shorten the ethical distance lead to nothing good.
As a teenager, an LII often has serious problems communicating with peers; it is hard for him to become "one of them." Therefore, he doesn't like walking on the street with other children very much, preferring to stay home. He has few friends; he is silent, serious, and keeps all his experiences inside.
Growing up, in communication with people, he tries as hard as possible to appear polite and tactful, to be correct with absolutely everyone. But "inside himself," he still prefers to let no one in. If someone behaves tactlessly toward him, he is unlikely to settle the score; he will simply wall himself off from the unpleasant interlocutor with an impenetrable veil.
Psychological overstrain (family quarrels, all sorts of conflicts and such) is borne painfully, so he tries to keep himself within bounds, restrained.
He likes neither settling scores nor ambiguity, but if necessary, he will calmly and reasonably try to dot all the i's.
In conversations, an LII tries as much as possible to avoid offensive expressions and remarks: the thing is, they usually produce a much stronger impression on the interlocutor than he intended. In other words, a remark that would sound quite innocent from most other people is perceived almost as an insult if spoken by an LII.
So he sometimes has to silently swallow small offenses because he understands: his response will be much stronger, and that is unfair.
If others mistakenly take his patience for weakness and begin to abuse it, they risk eventually running into an unexpected and very sharp blow. The one who is "lucky" enough to hit the epicenter of such an explosion will never be able to forget it.
And the LII himself will not be able to forget the state of this affect: for him, it is terrifying and unnatural, as if in that moment he is betraying himself. And yet he will go to the end and would rather die than allow himself to be further humiliated.
But honestly, this happens at most a couple of times throughout his life. All other time, an LII is a soft and yielding person. In communication with people, he fundamentally refuses to pressure them.
But don't pressure me either!!
The concept of "strength" is almost always perceived by him as "violence." Paradoxically, the softer the request addressed to him, the harder it is for him to refuse the requester; if he feels pressure on himself, he may completely stop reacting to any words and exhortations.
It is also difficult for an LII to defend his rights and interests; he has a weakened sense of ownership. If his rights are ignored by people around him, he might do nothing at all to correct the situation and protect himself.
In particularly severe cases, an LII may develop a kind of "victim complex" - a person who can be offended by anyone and who is unable to stand up for himself.
LIIs often have quite strong mood swings - from joyful excitement to dismal decline. He himself depends largely on his energy state, which is beyond the control of his mind. It should also be noted that by nature, an LII foresees negative moments in the future better than shining prospects. This trait also does not bring him joy or self-confidence.
On his own, an LII, especially in youth, does not know how to have fun. If no one pays attention to him at a party and doesn't try to involve him in the general merriment, he may sit in the corner all evening.
And I sat - at discos!
He is sincerely grateful to those who generously share real joy and a festive mood with him.
I love to laugh, but it doesn't happen as often as I would like...
Often externally he seems such a "dry" person or a "bluestocking" that people sincerely believe - that's just how he is. In communication with him, one must remember that in the dilemma of "to be or to seem," an LII almost always chooses "to be" and rarely allows himself "to seem."
How should I know what I want?!!
An LII is also quite helpless in organizing his daily life. Of course, if it so happens that "this tedious routine" in the family falls entirely on his shoulders, he will be able to organize it satisfactorily. However, this will be done at the cost of great expenditure of strength and time. And also his mood may deteriorate significantly. An LII is sincerely surprised when he learns that there are people who find all household chores "cool."
It's hard for him even to decide on an answer to the question: "What do you want for dinner today?" - how should he know? And his opinion on whether what he is currently eating is tasty or not is often formed from other people's words.
LIIs are not physically strong, their movements are clumsy and angular - a good athlete or dancer will not be made of him.
And I so want to be able to do all that - to be graceful, strong, agile!
He tries to maintain his health in order through simple means - proper nutrition, physical exercises, avoiding excesses (by the way, LIIs are less prone than others to alcohol, smoking and especially drugs, and they also fight these habits quite successfully in their loved ones).
He likes to walk a lot and fast - during this time his head "works" better. Despite relative physical weakness, he possesses significant endurance. If he does sports, he prefers individual types rather than team ones.
Life is the only thing given to man
Usually, an LII treats his professional duties and career quite responsibly. In general, even for a female LII, work as an opportunity for self-realization is more important than family. And if it's also a true Calling, any of them can almost without regret give up their personal life entirely.
It is hard to expect praise from an LII, but if he says something approving, it means you have truly earned it. In criticism, he sometimes goes too far. But he is just as demanding with himself: an LII usually sets high moral standards for himself, which, however, he does not like to talk about. He does not like "teaching others how to live."
A person must educate himself.
In work, an LII does not like to act according to a template, to be a "formal executor" and cannot do without initiative. In his youth, he is often "beaten" for this. Also, he prefers to work with his head, not his hands. It's easier for him to put forward an interesting promising idea and sketch out a plan for its execution than to implement it in life himself.
Not very enterprising; he engages in commerce or personal business mainly "in others' footsteps and along beaten paths," but will always necessarily add something of his own. Despite all his yielding nature, he becomes a stubborn mule when others begin to criticize his actions and business sense.
I know what to do myself!
He can perceive criticism calmly and constructively only in the form of a light and benevolent (in his understanding) hint. By the way, he himself likes to give others useful business advice, but never insists on its strict and mandatory execution.
My job is to suggest, yours - to refuse
As a rule, an LII will not give knowingly false advice or mislead someone who trusts him. This does not mean that he never deceives people. Most often his lie is only self-defense; and to lie and thereby cause harm to another person is a heavy trauma for a "decent" LII. The most he goes to with a clear conscience is not giving all the information.
But sometimes it's also hard for him to hide certain things. Having promised someone to keep silent, he will keep his word.
That's for sure.
Often with his own words, he personally gives people hostile toward him weapons against himself.
LII solves his problems in such a way as to avoid infringing on the interests of others as much as possible. In building relationships with people, he strives to implement the principle of mutual respect and always wants to act justly toward them. It must be said that the sense of justice in an LII is almost innate. Despite all his rejection of violence, he may get into a fight if he sees a gross violation of justice.
In a not very "developed" LII, the concept of justice largely coincides with the concept of equality, as a result of which he tends to unify people, and this, naturally, leads to nothing good.
He does not like making promises; to a request he may only say: "Okay, I don't promise, but I'll try." This can be both a veiled refusal and an internal decision to do everything in his power.
"I write to you - what more is there?"
In his actions, he is subconsciously oriented toward constant and maximum time-saving. In conversation, he tries (unconsciously!) to be extremely laconic. If he can fully exhaust the topic of a five-minute story with one phrase - he will be very pleased with himself. When speaking, he tries to put maximum meaning into his words. (Therefore, in an important conversation, he must be listened to extremely attentively - not a single word of his will be redundant or accidental.)
Habitual mechanical movements in an LII are also very economical, precise and extremely coordinated. In the kitchen, he can stir a salad with one hand, reach for salt with the other, and even close the table door with his knee.
Unfortunately, it's usually not possible to use the second leg - that's how you could fall.
LII does everything calmly and without fuss, so others notice how fast he works only when it becomes obvious that an hour's worth of work was done by him in twenty minutes.
In a time crunch, he usually acts better and more effectively; lack of time activates him. If someone next to him cannot make the deadlines, he will behave calmly and coolly, suppressing any panic moods and helping his comrade do everything, or at least the most important part.
LII feels time very well, although this is not consciously realized by them. Without calculating much in advance how much time will be spent, he can manage to get everywhere on time. Even if it's "customary" to be late for a meeting (for example, a date), he will be delayed only by a couple of minutes.

PS and it's even better to read more about functions, it explains what "base", "creative" etc. mean

PPS better write the scientific name of the type rather than surnames)
PPPS by the way, I later read about Robespierre)

Be strong. Believe
