Our research tells us that personality types with the Thinking, Extraverted, and Assertive traits are more likely than others to choose to fight. At its core, fighting is an expression of dominance, of the need to make our will supreme.
A personality clash occurs when two (or more) people find themselves in conflict not over a particular issue or incident, but due to a fundamental incompatibility in their personalities, their approaches to things, or their style of life.
But five of the ten types of personality disorders are particularly prone to high-conflict behavior patterns: borderline, narcissistic, antisocial, paranoid, and histrionic. These five have different patterns of behavior, which make them have more or less potential to change.
The battle of type A versus type B personalities is a classic clash: Type As popularly pride themselves on being meticulous, ambitious, driven, and organized. And type Bs mostly pride themselves as being way effing chiller than type As.
The ESTP and Dominance
ESTPs ranked as being highly dominant according to the CPI™ tool. This isn't surprising as they are known for their confidence, assertiveness, and direct nature.
ISTP - Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, And Perceiving
People with the ISTP personality type are often described as hard to read.
ENFJs are known for searching for the goodness in others, and for being able to summon a powerful level of compassion, which means that even when their partner falls short, their acceptance and love is still unwavering. Expressive, nurturing, and supportive, ENFJs love hard because it's the only way they know how.
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.
The most rebellious personality types include the ENTP, INTP, ESTP, and ISTP, while some of the least rebellious are the ISFJ, ESFJ, ESTJ, and ISTJ. Each personality type is somewhere on the spectrum of rebelliousness versus obedience, and there is no right or wrong way to be.
Analysts (85% agreeing) Of the four Roles, Analysts were the ones who most enjoyed a challenge. Thinking and Intuitive personality types were both more likely than their Feeling and Observant counterparts to agree with our statement.
What Is a Loner Personality? Loners are people who actively try to stay as far away as possible from social interactions. They prefer solitude over the company of others and tend to enjoy being preoccupied with their thoughts. Loners usually don't mind sitting idly or waiting, so long as they are alone when doing it.
Rigid: Logisticians may be one of the personality types most susceptible to rigid boundaries. Their Introverted, Thinking, and Judging traits may make it hard for them to let others in or to let much of themselves out.
People with avoidant personality disorder avoid social situations due to fear of rejection and being judged by others. However, because most people with this condition want to develop relations, they may be more likely to respond to the work of psychotherapy.
Researchers have found that your Myers-Briggs personality type can impact how much money you make. Of the 16 different personality types, those with the ENTJ personality type on average earn the most money. The INFP (Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Perceiving) personality type on average earn the least.
The study then describes the seven traits that can be used to determine if someone is difficult: callousness, grandiosity, aggressiveness, suspicion, manipulativeness, dominance and risk-taking.
ISFPs are quiet, reserved types who like to focus their attention on people and the experiences they enjoy. They aren't typically big talkers unless someone they're talking about something deeply important to them or they're trying to empathize verbally with someone.
Judgers (J) More Talkative than Perceivers (P)
Since J types judge rather than perceive outwardly, they generally prefer to talk more than listen. Intuitive Judgers (NJ types), in particular, can launch into lengthy diatribes on all sorts of topics.
Submissive personality traits:
Submissives are concerned with facts rather than emotion, and won't spend time getting to know you on a personal level. In conversation, submissives are serious, direct, and formal and often like to be dealt with at arm's length.
Many ENTJs talk to themselves as a way to process their thoughts. Others diagram, take notes or chart their thoughts on notepads, whiteboards, or anything available. At times, ENTJs can be confusing for other types to understand (particularly sensing types) because their thoughts veer into the metaphorical or abstract.
ESTJs have a tendency to think they are always right and that their moral compass is objective, absolute and universal.
Type A women tend to show greater autonomic arousal to laboratory stressors as well as greater time urgency and speed, more goal directedness, a preference to work alone under stress conditions, and more competitiveness/aggressiveness than Type B women.
It's easy to assume their contrasting personalities would make a relationship between a Type A and Type B impossible. However, the reality is that sometimes, opposites attract and balance each other out. There can be many benefits of a Type A dating a Type B instead of a Type A dating another Type A.
