WHO ARE YOU CALLING A LE NECKBEARD
*pulls a dorito out of my belly button and eats it*
I'm not really into ENFPs. I find ESTJs and INFJs extremely attractive
Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:12:33)I should check to see if I'm still an INTP but I'm not gonna use the weird commercialized test Meia posted.

It's funny how that test seems to have favorites and say good things about the more uncommon types.
Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:16:34)Btw how I worded what I said wasn't wrong.
While it didn't pertain to personalities it still was correct.
"the human brain stops developing in your early 20s"
I don't really know what's going on because you weren't making sense either.

Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:22:27)That's why I didn't say it was that.
I got INTP again.

Hold on a second, I think I might be confused about this
Cognitive functions do not change, but your overall personality does. Your personality stops developing when you are around the age of twenty. Am I correct?
Perfect_Chaos (2015-02-21 19:26:07)imo your personality can still change when you're in you're in your 20s.
Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:31:36)OKAY OKAY.
I KNOW WHAT THIS IS ABOUT NOW. (Hear me out mega)
Okay so personality is a touchy subject among psychologists. There are 5 main contemporary perspectives all considered to be scientifically credible by the APA. (American Psychological Association)
-Psychodynamic
-Behaviorist
-Humanistic
-Cognitive
-Biological
Me saying the thing about physical development is among factors outlined in he biological theory, given that personalities are caused by well, biological development.
Mega, on the other hand brought up an article that was on more of a behaviorist/psychodynamic leaning side. Personalities are caused by conditioning and and morals, in this case. In this theory, change can happen despite biological factors.
The truth is, nobody actually knows where personalities come from. But we have a good understanding of factors that may effect it. The truth most likely is a mix of all theories.

Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:33:58)When Anti said "cognitive", I finally understood what the hell was going on.

Mephistopheles (2015-02-21 19:43:53)I don't know if you guys know this, but psychologists actually have no idea what the hell is going on.
Take a psychology class, everything is based off of theories save for biological illness.
But cures for biological illnesses are theorized also lol.

Oooohhhhh. I think I understand why a lot of INTJs are so obsessed with ENFPs now. They just seem to naturally get along very well.
