Positive Emotions: Those with ESFP, ENTJ and ESTJ personality types rated positive emotions as highly contributing to their well-being. INFP, ISTP and INTJ types rated this as contributing the least to their happiness compared to the other MBTI personality types.
People with an ESFJ-type personality — which stands for Extroverted, Sensing, Feeling, Judging — are the most satisfied. In the chart below, a score of 5 represents the highest level of satisfaction possible, and a score of 1 indicates the lowest level of satisfaction.
Which Types Ranked as the Least Happy? Sadly, INFPs ranked the lowest for happiness as well as the lowest for life-satisfaction. According to the third edition of the MBTI® Manual, these types also ranked second highest in dissatisfaction with their marriages and intimate relationships.
1. ESFJ. People who fit the ESFJ personality type can usually be recognized by their big hearts and kindly manner. ESFJs are warm and welcoming and their love of tradition means they value good old-fashioned manners highly.
ISFP at a glance
ISFPs are devoted helpers, but they don't seek recognition for their efforts. They're carefree and easygoing, and they dislike being tied down by strict routines, rules, or structures.
INTJ: One of The Rarest, Loneliest Personality Types [Introverts and Writing]
INTJs are typically very quiet and reserved unless they happen to meet someone who, like them, loves exploring theoretical concepts, analyzing possibilities, and dreaming up long-term goals. That said, they're not typically very verbal when it comes to discussing their feelings or people's personal lives.
The introverted (I) intuitive (N) types (“INs”)—INFJ, INFP, INTJ and INTP—are among the most “sensitive” of the personality types.
Isfp: The Chill Pill
There's no better person to just hang with than you, ISFP…and you get along with just about anyone, unless they're judgmental or demanding. People who prefer a structured relationship might find you too laid-back or aloof, but you can't be bogged down by rules or expectations, man.
It isn't risk taking in the sense of jumping off cliffs, but this willingness to live life outside the comfort zone makes ENTPs the type most willing to take risks.
They're probably ISFJs, who feel super uncomfortable with the prospect of hurting anyone's feelings. "They tend to be wallflowers and can sometimes stumble over their words," says Owens. They'll likely skip the inflammatory family dinner conversation—even if they're Zooming in from thousands of miles away.
The INFP. Deep and introspective, INFPs direct most of their conscious energy to discover meaning and achieving inner harmony with their values. They are one of the most emotionally analytical personality types – having depths and complexities to their emotions that others may only briefly glimpse.
It can be debated which MBTI personality type is truly the most “shy” among the 16 types, but the INFP personality type — also known as the “Mediator” — is often listed at the top of shyness ranks.
INTJs are definitely the overthinking type, they enjoy being able to process as much information as possible. INTJs are logical people, who have extremely active and rich inner minds.
ENFP. ENFPs are one of the personality types that falls in love fastest. They embrace their feelings and falling in love is an adventure for ENFPs.
Most Chill: ISTPs are like zen-masters. Their default state of mind in the face of adversity is calm, intense confidence.
The ENTP. ENTPs are usually seen as energetic, curious, and spontaneous.
Above all, however, what makes an ENFJ most easy to talk to is that they can easily pick up on hidden thoughts, emotions, and motivations (due to their Intuitive preference). In other words, they just know when you're feeling angry, bummed, or drained without you even having to say so.
The INFP – Social Climbers
You think someone's your friend, and you've begun to trust them with stories from your life. And then suddenly they meet a richer, more attractive, or more successful person.
Intuitive Thinking personality types are the most likely of all of the types to be argumentative, according to research led by Donald Loffredo, Ed. D, at the University of Houston. ENTJs in particular tended to score as highly argumentative.
People with avoidant personality disorder are afraid of being rejected, criticized, or embarrassed and thus avoid situations where they may experience such reactions.
The least common Myers-Briggs personality Type is INFJ
People who prefer INFJ make up only 1.5% of the general population in the US.
The ESFP. Obnoxious ESFPs want to create excitement and will go to any lengths to do so. They tend to speak loudly, make mischief, or embarrass themselves or others to get a laugh.
ESFP. ESFPs are highly emotional individuals. They feel everything very deeply and the intensity of their emotions is so strong that they can find them completely overwhelming. ESFPs are one of the personality types who are most comfortable with expressing their emotions and sharing their thoughts.
INTJs are the most independent of all the Myers Briggs Types, and they're proud of that independence. They're problem solvers who loves a challenge and they can turn theories into actions. They analyse life based on what they see, and are usually busy with their thoughtful contemplations.
