I was discussing the Myers Briggs 16 personality test with a friend and felt the need to sort Edwin and Charles.
For everyone whos not familiar with the concept: There are 4 dimensions of traits.
The first is introversion versus extroversion
That's pretty self explaining.
Then there is intuitive versus observant
"Our second personality scale includes the Intuitive (N) and Observant (S) styles. These traits describe what people are more likely to do with the information gathered from the world around them. Intuitive personality types rely on imagining the past and future potential of what they see. Those with the Observant style are more interested in observable facts and more straightforward outcomes. They prefer to avoid layering too much interpretation on what they see."
The third scale is thinking versus feeling
"When presented with a decision, people with the Thinking trait typically lean on objective information. Knowledge is their indispensable tool. Once these personality types gather the facts, they test their alternatives against logic and reason to see which decision, by those standards, proves the most effective or realistic. They generally manage their relationships by employing fairness and effectiveness as their primary method of dealing with others. Their passions are born of respect.
People with the Feeling (F) trait follow their hearts and emotions – sometimes without even realizing it. They may show it to different degrees and in different ways, but however they do it, Feeling personality types tend to be caring, compassionate, and warm. These concerned people can be highly protective of those they care about – whether that is their immediate family or remote populations in need."
The last scale is judging vs perceiving.
I think the terminology is misleading. This scale means if a person is a planner or spontaneously.
I think Edwin and Charles are total opposites.
Edwin is introverted, observant, thinking and judging
That makes him a Logistican
"People with the ISTJ personality type (Logisticians) mean what they say and say what they mean, and when they commit to doing something, they make sure to follow through. With their responsible and dependable nature, it might not be so surprising that ISTJ personalities also tend to have a deep respect for structure and tradition. They are often drawn to organizations, workplaces, and educational settings that offer clear hierarchies and expectations."
Examples given for this type are George Washington, Hermione Granger, Mr. Darcy and Dana Scully
Charles is extroverted, intuitive, feeling and perceiving
That makes him a campaigner
"People with the ENFP personality type (Campaigners) are true free spirits – outgoing, openhearted, and open-minded. With their lively, upbeat approach to life, ENFPs stand out in any crowd. But even though they can be the life of the party, they don’t just care about having a good time. These personalities have profound depths that are fueled by their intense desire for meaningful, emotional connections with others."
Examples are Robin Williams, Peeta Mellark (Hunger Games) and Willy Wonka
Let me know if you disagree with those types, I love hearing different views.

MBTI Types as Michael Scott Quotes
ENFJ: “Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked, but it’s not like this compulsive need to be liked, like my need to be praised.
INFJ: “Society teaches us that having feelings and crying is bad and wrong. Well, that’s baloney, because grief isn’t wrong. There’s such a thing as good grief. Just ask Charlie Brown.”
ENFP: “Sometimes I’ll start a sentence, and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way.”
INFP: “Well, well, well, how the turntables...”
ENTJ: “The only time I set the bar low is for limbo.”
INTJ: “Guess what, I have flaws. What are they? Oh, I don’t know. I sing in the shower. Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Occasionally I’ll hit somebody with my car. So sue me.”
ENTP: “I saved a life. My own. Am I a hero?… I really can’t say, but yes!”
INTP: “My philosophy is, basically this. And this is something that I live by. And I always have. And I always will. Don’t, ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who you are with, or, or where you are going, or, or where you’ve been. Ever. For any reason. Whatsoever.”
ESFJ: “Yes, it is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username. And I have a great one. Little Kid Lover. That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.”
ISFJ: “I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one someday.”
ESFP: “Sometimes you have to take a break from being the kind of boss that’s always trying to teach people things. Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing.”
ISFP: “I am Beyoncé, always.”
ESTJ: “Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate. So he’s not really a part of our family. Also, he’s divorced, so he’s not really a part of his family.”
ISTJ: “You know what they say? Fool me once, strike one but fool me twice.... strike three.”
ESTP: “Two weeks ago, I was in the worst relationship of my life. She treated me poorly, we didn’t connect, I was miserable. Now, I am in the best relationship of my life, with the same woman. Love is a mystery.”
ISTP: “Friends joke with one another. Hey, you’re poor. Hey, your momma’s dead. That’s what friends do.”
The way I like to compare gender to concepts cis people could understand is with things like introversion vs extroversion or really anything on the meyers Briggs types. Like, my introversion is an ingrained part of me, the same as my gender, but that doesn’t mean it’s entirely set and concrete. There are ambiverts and people that the dichotomy doesn’t necessarily represent, just like gender. Just as I gain energy through alone time, i feel more myself when I’m referred to as male or have gender euphoria. I feel that as I change as a person, my introversion expresses itself differently, but that doesn’t change me being an introvert. The same goes for gender.
I've been taking a lot of "Which Downton Character are you?" quiz these days. I'll post the results of those soon. This one is not a quiz but apparently I'm Matthew Crawley.
I'll take it... but based on the little descriptions below each personality type I think I'm Edith.
What's yours?
PS. Thomas is described so positively here! He is not evil he just has unconventional ways to get ahead!
