Myers-Briggs Profile Typing and Nursing

ISFJ: introverted, sensing, feeling, judging

Which makes me a "protector" I had never taken the test before, but I can tell I made the right decision to go to nursing school now--it's one of the recommended professions for my type and I've been so happy with everything in school and clinical thus far it just seems to fit finally.

We are lucky that Protectors make up as much as ten percent the population, because their primary interest is in the safety and security of those they care about - their family, their circle of friends, their students, their patients, their boss, their fellow-workers, or their employees. Protectors have an extraordinary sense of loyalty and responsibility in their makeup, and seem fulfilled in the degree they can shield others from the dirt and dangers of the world. Wanting to be of service to others, Protectors find great satisfaction in assisting the downtrodden, and can deal with disability and neediness in others better than any other type. They are not as outgoing and talkative as the Provider Guardians [ESFJs], and their shyness is often misjudged as stiffness, even coldness, when in truth Protectors are warm-hearted and sympathetic, giving happily of themselves to those in need.

I'm really glad you posted this and I"m interested in others' results.
