ISTJ: The Inspector (Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, Judging)
People with an ISTJ personality type tend to be reserved, practical and quiet. They enjoy order and organization in all areas of their lives including their home, work, family, and projects. ISTJs value loyalty in themselves and others, and place an emphasis on traditions.
ISTJs Rely on Four Key Cognitive Functions:
Dominant: Introverted Sensing
Introverted sensors are focused on the present moment, taking in an abundance of information about their surroundings. They also have vivid memories of the past and rely on the memories of these experiences to form expectations for the future.
Auxiliary: Extraverted Thinking
ISTJs are logical and efficient. They enjoy looking for rational explanations for events. They prefer to focus on the details rather than thinking about abstract information. Being efficient and productive is important for people with this personality type. They appreciate knowledge that has immediate, practical applications. ISTJs make decisions based on logic and objective data rather than personal feelings.
Tertiary: Introverted Feeling
As they make judgments, ISTJs often make personal interpretations based on their internal set of values. This is often described as an "instinct" or "gut feeling" about a situation. ISTJ might make a decision based on logic, only to have this feeling kick in telling them to trust their feelings rather than just the facts.
Inferior: Extraverted Intuition
This aspect of personality enjoys new ideas and experiences. This is the weakest part of the ISTJs personality, but developing this function can sometimes lead to a more balanced personality.
