Meyers Brigg, Have you done it?

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I know I have said this before, but I am currently in a new grad residency program in the emergency department. Recently we took a personality color test which I found to be super cool.

The test was made by Carl Chung, I believe his name is, and he determined that each person had a certain temperament that they were born with and it was associated with a color. I got the color orange and many of the other nurse residents who were going to the ER also got orange.

We each did this color test so that we could determine what personality we each had. Prior to doing this I had done the Meyers Briggs personality test and got an ESTP.

Have any of you guys done the Meyers Briggs? If so, what did you get? Most of my friends got an I instead of an E and we are all nurses.

Do you guys feel like your personality determines what area you will be in?? As stated I got an E and I am in the ER. So is there any correlation?? I know I love the pace and acuity of the ER, so I just wanted to see if there were any correlation between your Meyers Briggs and the unit you work in.

INFJ all the way~ No idea on the color test though... I should probably look it up :D

I've taken that test a dozen times, and I'm always an INTJ. I used to be a computer programmer, but I got bored and went to nursing school. Funny that everyone says INTJs don't make good nurses... I see lots of them here! I work Critical Care, and it seems to suit me. Plan to go back for an FNP at some point and work rural health.

INTP here...any other INTP nurses? what specialty are you in?

I've spent most of my career in mental health, a little bit of time in primary care/ambulatory. Staff nursing and case management.

INFJ/P. I work in correctional nursing. I will be a PMHNP student in the the fall. It’s interesting the number of INFJ navigating towards psych, hospice, or related specialities.
