i) Three participants this time, all three were women: ISFP, INTP, ESFP. From #GetSorted 07 21, there was also 3 men, 2 women - ESFP, ENFP, ENTJ, plus ENFP and ESTP.
ii) Got off on the wrong foot with Jasmine’s typing (trippin-on-tater-chips), but everyone else went pretty smoothly.
iii) What made me unsure about types? Initially assuming Jasmine was an extravert kind of threw me off, and I couldn’t effectively pick between ENFP or ESFP as she was neither. As mentioned in the previous round-up, carto_writer and Anna were a case of lacking examples for comparison.
iv) Were the questions effective? They seem fine. I like seeing what people choose to answer, but I also sort of want everyone to answer everything for more thorough information... 1)Favourite subject, 6)cats v. dogs, and 10)character questions are the most popular. I am really glad to have stuck in the ‘weirdly fascinating’ question, because I’m enjoying hearing what you’re all into!
Everyone who answered the matchmaking question said that they don’t, and everyone who answered the sense of direction/time question told me that theirs was bad.
v) Are there any patterns by type as far as content goes? This was my answer last time: “Nothing new, except for ENFPs (possibly?) preferring cats to dogs.” To which I would like to add that I think most FPs choose cats (out of a preference for a lower-maintenance pet), except for ESFPs, who seem to mostly prefer dogs. I suspect that NTPs are dog people.
ENJs continue to be the only people with job passion. ESTPs still like cars. ESFPs still like the heartbreaker/heartbreakee question. Extraverts are still the only ones willing to share family drama.
vi) Are there any patterns that were not content-oriented? So I have more questions than the first time I ran the challenge (20 instead of 19, with 4 outro questions instead of 3), but number of questions answered is still a decent indicator of type. The top two rows indicate the combined number of questions and outro questions answered in the first #GetSorted, the bottom two indicate the same for #GetSorted 07 21 and #GetSorted 22. It hasn’t been as clearly delineated this time around.
I’m just noticing that the two I had trouble with (Jasmine -ISFP- at 14 answers, and carto-writer-ENTJ- also at 14 answers) are the two who didn’t quite fit into the previous expectation for number of questions answered. I wonder how much answering speed has to do with how comfortably I’m typing people?
Actually, I didn’t catch 3 out of 4 of the 21-22 answer people in the first couple of seconds, either. Weird!
Ok, looking at this further, there were 10 #GetSorted typings I’ve been unclear on at any particular point. With kenn I was deciding between two EP types, and with Claire between two I types, so it wouldn’t have made a difference.
The others, though... L. answered a low number of questions for an EP (definitely within the norm though as an ESTP answered 8, as well, and two ESFPs answered 9). Trentynne - back and forth between low for an EJ or comfortable for an EP. Jasmine - high for an introvert. carto-writer - low for an EJ . an-ununusual-couple was within range for an EJ, but experiencing frustration with the filming process, so I was ready to entertain amped-up introvert as a possibility. And then three out of four people answering 21-22 questions were tricky.
I think with the 21-22 answer people, you get a mixture of boundary pushing (see: challenge, say: challenge accepted!!), and/or lack of connection to the questions, so answers are shorter. Both are fine, although it’s interesting that it’s been all different types, so far.
That’s 8 out of the 10 people I was unsure about with an unexpected answering speed, and the two typings I got wrong from the start were both for fast-talking introverts.
Anyway, as far as keeping time goes, EPs are both the best and the worst at it, holding all three records for shortest video (they hold 1st through 3rd place on the shortest videos), longest video (1st-4th), and video closest to the 10min mark (in a tie with an INTP). J types consistently hit between 10:10 and 11:20.
vii) Would I revise the challenge in any way? Not at the moment. I think 20+4 questions is kind of a lot, though, and I will likely scale it back to 19+3 at some time in the future. Whenever that happens, I would also switch up the question order again, since people tend to answer more questions at the beginning of the list.
viii) Anything happen I wasn’t expecting? Not that I can think of.
Your questions: There were none, which makes this part very easy. Thanks to everyone who participated - it was fun watching your videos!
