Personality Analyst Reacts to JENNIFER LAWRENCE | 16 Personalities 

Her older brothers probably weren't intentionally rude to her but still the idea of their feedback stifling her spontaneous and bubbly Ne storytelling crushes me. Even as an INFP being told to just get to the point when I'm exploring ideas out loud feels stifling. Must be super hard as an Ne dom! Sad she seems still affected by that.

ENFPs are so charismatic to me. As an INFJ, I learn a lot from their ability to be honest with themselves and others, and most importantly accepting who they are at their core.

Thank you for your encouragement. ENFPs are always told we're too much. Too loud, too fast, too random, too big, too weird, too whatever. When we hear that constantly, like Jennifer did from her older brothers, eventually we just shut outselves down. But this does a tremendous disservice to our superpowers and our authenticity. We need to let our freak flag fly!!

I’m an ENFP with strong Te functionality. I blame that on having an older ENTP brother lol. I think having such a logical influence during my childhood who did not hold back whatsoever had SUCH a huge impact on how I display my ENFP-ness, so much so to the point where I actually struggle to relate to most other ENFPs that I meet. I think ENFPs are a naturally self conscious/aware type, so whatever influences were around during our upbringing make a gigantic effect on our portrayal of our personality. This was an amazing personality breakdown, my favourite thing about your videos is your way of analyzing the cognitive functions. It’s really opened my eyes to how much room for variation there actually is within every type! Love what you do Eric, please keep it up!!!! ❤️

14:02 Eric i'm sobbing with relief that i'm not just seen as a self-centred nuisance...i'm an ENFP & i often feel like "too much" in the absolute worst way - reassurance that these traits are special & valued, when healthy boundaries are incorporated, goes SO far in helping that insecurity!! thank you, i feel genuinely seen & cared about

As an infj i wish i was comfortable with not fitting in. This is truly inspiring to try embrace my authenticity!

I’m sure you have a long list of your next analyses ready to go, but I think an analysis of John Krasinski & Emily Blunt would be FABULOUS!

Jennifer's background of her family telling her to "get to the point" and "finish" and that I need to "stop talking about yourself," and being self-conscious about that actually made my eyes water lol. I resonated with it a lot. I'm an INFP and I've noticed that I'm one of those rare INFP's who are great at detaching myself and being objective and logical about things and is ok with criticism and prioritising efficiency (though I'm awful with time management and productivity). I guess using my Te and occasionally suppressing my Fi to find the most logical solution is just more efficient at certain times. I've realised it's due to my household basically only having Ti, Fe, Ni and Se users apart from me and not getting my Ne-ness or my Fi-ness for that matter. My Te actually made me develop some sort of Fe in order to communicate with my family more efficiently without the miscommunications of being "selfish" or what not. Because of my axillary Ne and Fi-Si combo, my dad actually called me "chaotically grounded/stable" which I think describes me a lot. So perhaps that Te side has also been brought into fruition because I'm also an healthy, assertive and confident INFP? I guess it could be a culmination of those factors and I'll stop rambling lol. Just needed to pen my thoughts 😅😂.

WOOOOW that part when Sher talking about her brother telling her to be quicker, or to “get to the point” of what she was trying to say I can RELATE SO HARD on it. I’m an ENFP, since I was I kid my big brother and my mom have told me this. So now I try to create connections as quick as I can whenever I want to say something. Idk if I should thank them or feel bad about it cuz there are sometimes I just feel people don’t care what I want to communicate but at the same time they get impressed about how I connect many things to explain one. Thank y so much for this video I LOVEEEEEEEED IT

Good analysis! Can you make 16 playlists, one for each personality type? I think people would like to compare those of the same type with each other.

When I had a high-tech corporate career, I tested as ENFP, but later I realized I an INFP. The pressures of my work duties really amped my extroversion to get stuff done, and I had to unwind when I left that job/company. I've really quite liked the quiet of the covid lockdown, and it hasn't been too difficult as I embraced my introversion.

I love ENFPs so much!! All of my closest friends have been ENFPs! They help me as an INFP to kind of let go of my own insecurity and explore the possibilities and “explore” almost isn’t even the right word because it’s more like just throwing yourself into a scenario and going for it wholeheartedly just knowing that’s what you want to do and it feels right. I love my ENFPs so much!!!

I really related to Jennifer Lawrence a lot more than I was expecting to in this video. I appreciated your analysis of her personality in this video and your encouragement at the end. Watching this video made me realize that I was using my Te to mask or hide my personality based on outside expectations and preferences (I consistently tested as ENFP) and that doing so is not healthy. Thank you Eric! 🙂

I love how Eric is so good at finding the perfect clips to prove someone's personality type. It seems like he has Iconic lines you would expect from 1 of the 16 at the very beginning telling you exactly what they are right away. "I would think something and then feel it" literally Ne dom and Fi aux proven in one sentence. You know right away she is ENFP.

I’m an ENFP and I appreciated you encouraging someone who thinks like me to check in and not be afraid to explore ideas! Another good video 👍🏼

thank god lmao. she’s such an enfp and the enfj arguments on pdb were KILLING me

Also, I got to see Jen in person at a conference a few years ago, and when she introduced one of the speakers, she said something to the effect of, *"Well, this next guy's a freakin' astronaut who's literally seen Earth from the space station, so the rest of us [speakers/presenters] should just go home."* Her Te was probably working overtime to keep her Ne and Fi in check, but it was brilliantly entertaining to see her verbally rip up any semblance of a script in real time.

Awesome stuff. Eric Wen the MBTI analysis master has confirmed it. Jennifer Lawrence is officially one of us ENFPs. Muahahaha.

After watching this, it hit me how simillar Jennifer's facial expressions are to Tom Holland's. No surprise she's also an ENFP, but great analysis as always, Eric! Can't imagine how intense it was to comb every interview JLaw's ever done for the rarer Te and Si moments.

Thank you for saying our authenticity is valued!! Makes me feel so much better, growing up with TEs and FEs.

5:30 as an ENFP, this is a GREAT example of what it's like to have Ne. Just imagine this, but in your head, constantly. If that clip was overwhelming for you, imagine it 24/7 😂

My favorite thing was on Jimmy Fallon when she said, "Please, Jennifer is my father. Call me Jen." If she wanted to shift careers and be a stand-up comedian she could probably do it. ENFPs might not be the most rational but they're entertaining and can be nice, and I appreciate that she's self-aware.

12:45 i wasnt supposed to cry on this video, why this, ughhhhhh so relatable. typical situation of my life is trying to tell someone about something that happened in my day, and have like my parents being completely bored (and today they always interrupt me saying i speak too quickly but ask yourself why) or my brothers laughing or putting it back on me cause i'm naive and emotional ;-;

Thank you so much for educating us, Eric. Brilliant as always.

this is really great -- i love how you organized it a lot

I really liked your Te explanation of the ENFP type. Both parts of it, the work hard emotionless part and the ‘rude’ part. I feel like people forget this about ENFPs all the time. On the one hand I want to grow my Te and the other hand I’m at my best in full Ne/Fi flow. Balance ❤️

I really enjoyed how thorough your analysis was! I'm an ENTJ, and this helps me understand some of my own functions. Keep up the great work!

EMMA WATSON NEXT PLEASEEE ERIC

Thanks for helping me understand myself better. I'm an ENFP but sometimes what is described about that type doesn't pan out with my reality. That Te aspect is often left out and yet, it can be particularly predominant in life due to circumstances that are not in our control.

I had a feeling I'm similar to Jen but now I'm 100% sure of that. As ENFPs myself, I was silenced when I was a kid, so I grew up with idea "if they do not listen, but they are with me when I'm talking, that's OK". This changed because I was tired of giving people control over me. It doesn't mean that my thinkig side washed away, but I want my feeling side to glow. Thank you Eric for what you're doing! You are the best!

This is the first video of yours I’ve ever watched and I enjoyed it so much, Jen is one of my favorites and I love hearing about different personality types and how they work. Thank you for your content

10:39 if I need to, I can definitely be assertive. If there's a situation where I'm itching for a logical explanation or I'm trying to improve on something, I will push and pry people for direct, straightforward answers and ask them to clarify. I've started doing this more recently in school because I understand that future information will be built off what I learn now, and it's crucial that I don't have doubts about how something works. And since I have ADD, it's extremely important that I know the "logical rules" of a given subject so that if I miss information, I can infer what the answer might be because I made an effort to get the most thorough explanations earlier on.

She reminds me of Jonathan Winters, Robin Williams, and Jim Carrey. All fantastic to watch but as an INFP, living with this type would completely overwhelm me. I can see why people would try to rein them in, but it would be a shame if they succeeded in doing so ❤️

Oh wow this video impact me so much. I feel I’m just like her growing up as a younger kid I always felt I had to fit in and kinda shut down my goofy part to show responsible. So when I feel accepted and loved I love to be funny and play around with ideas and possibilities. I’m a bit more shy than her but I definitely identify so so much with her personality and it reveals so much about me and about my weakness and is so good to know I’m not alone.

0:54 as an ENFP with ADD, I can relate to that statement a lot. However, I don't think I felt quite as strong of a drive to be seen individualistically. I think Jennifer may have some enneagram 4 in her haha. In my case, ADD gave me a bit of rejection sensitivity (kids with ADHD tend to experience 3x the amount of rejection as neurotypical kids) and made me strive towards pleasing people and "fitting in". However, people with ADHD (the fact that I'm an Ne dom doesn't exactly help this) stick out like a sore thumb. I like being my own individual person, but I also like the social security that comes with being seen as part of a "group". Getting attention for being different just isn't a desire I need to strive for, and would rather be recognized in that way by close friends instead of making up "wooden legs" to seem different in front of complete strangers 😂 Due to it being received negatively a lot, I tend to suppress my Ne around people I'm not close with. I would rather be seen as boring and normal than be cut off in the middle of a rant and know everyone thought what you said was weird as heck but there's just that awkward silence and no one saying anything 😂. So I tend to compensate with Te in order to be taken seriously, and let the crazy Ne loose around good friends who I know won't judge me for it.

Reading the comments make me feel like we all just accidentally got into an I/ENFP (or other related letters) support group. Just found your videos and haven’t felt so quickly validated!! Much love to the other I/ENFP’s out there along with Eric for making this video!!

Fellow ENPP over here! I love hearing about how awesome we are. Super encouraging!! Thank you. 😊

I really enjoy this series, I’m still trying to figure out my functions and watching these helps see them in actual people:)

I asked in comments and you made a video on it , thanks so much

love this!! would like to know ryan reynolds' and blake lively's personality types

As an ENFP myself, really enjoyed this one Eric!

Omg thanks for doing this video I was asking for some time ago. You're the best mate

Before watching this video, I've watched interviews of Jennifer Lawrence. She's one of those people I look at and go, "Had I not grown up in a very restrictive, abusive environment that continued into adulthood relationships, that's what I would have been like as an adult" or "that's what I was like as a kid, and it got trained out of me." So, when I happened upon personality tests, I was all over the place. Mostly INTP, but sometimes ISTP, INTJ, or. more lately, INFJ. The "I" is nearly 100%. I would like to see studies done on how childhood environments do affect personality formation, if at all.

I'd like to see a thinker's personality analysed next time around!

Great video! I‘m so glad you did one on JLaw :) Could you maybe consider covering one more about an ISFJ? I think they are generally pretty underrepresented in the community. If not, that‘s okay too. I enjoy all your videos 😊

Great vid Eric as always! ENFP here and totally can relate. Keep up the good work! John Mayer next?

kindly asking for an analysis on Kurt Cobain

When my ENFP daughter was little, she would talk SOOoo much and SOOoo fast she was not intelligible to anyone outside of the family until she was maybe 10. To me it was super fascinating and adorable the way she would spurt her ideas out at lightning speed, giggling at her idea at the same time, then on to another connection.

hey eric!! can you do a video on rachel zegler’s personality type? she’s very new in the industry but already has hollywood roles under her belt. she recently starred in spielberg’s west side story so there’s lots of press junket videos you can analyse. on top of that she has a youtube channel so you can see her more casual and natural side. love ur videos sm btw keep up the good work

Oh wow, she's a lot like me! I kind of wonder what elements make her likeable when there are a lot of ADHD types who are similar and not so universally adorable

Oh wow... I'm shocked, I swore she was ENFJ, guess not... but it makes so much sense. I really like her and the interview with emma stone has to be one of my favorite ever, their energies are amazing

Thank you for the advice at the end! Very good analysis.

I’ve always thought she was an enfj but this video proved me wrongg! I’m glad I can continue to learn how to type through your analysis. Thanks Eric!

I'm probably the same personality type as her or at least very similar. I always care deeply about being able to express myself but not only that, about other people feeling comfortable being able to express themselves. Nothing pains me more than seeing someone stifling their true self, and I always try to accept people for who they are as I know what its like to not feel accepted.

Please do Jessica Chastain.

Love your videos and love Jennifer! Enfp’s are my favorite type haha

I saw a vid of Jennifer Lawrence and thought she's an ENFP cause I relate to her as an ENFP myself. The first thing I did was search if Eric Wan has an analysis of her and he has! 😂 Just wanted to share lol

Man !! You are soooo good 🙏 m an enfp and you helped me understand more about myself I always shut down my Fi to be safe in some places/people… thank you ❤️❤️❤️

amazing video! 💕💕 I'd love a video on harry Styles

Eric!!! Loved all of it!! How are you such a powerfully seamless storyteller, bud!!!? Till now I somehow though she was an ENFJ Identify with all of it Inappropriate, not many filters, chilled about being a wacko outlier Feeling what I think, I can literally feel what I focus on Having the shittiest of the goofy spontaneous ideas, open to random scenarios, randomness out of the blue, shock value not on purpose - going from one idea to another. Tangential jumps in no time I have a pseudo persona too :P Connecting the dots -pattern spotting for fun, effall Si - clumsy af! Tell me as it is. Don't shroud it. I can take it. Like an observer outside of the actor. Self proclaimed asshole to protect myself. Not necessarily being an ass, but being fair to self My brother tells me the same & that sets the self filters, with a reality check filter inbuilt growing up with him Eric thank you for adding this note about - how am I really really feeling, you are awesome 🤗🤗 Can't wait to be a Patreon soon!!!

I love your videos, I binge watch them all the time!

i love her, she's so real and hilarious

Love your ending -- me at 23-25 really needed to hear that so much because i would really suppress my Fi back then to just go go go

This made me tear up, I relate to Jennifer very much and believe I am also an ENFP. Thank you for the advice in this video.

That was such a sweet wrap-up! I get so exhausted if I get stuck in my Te; it’s nice to feel appreciated for my ENFPness!

I have never related more to a celeb, thanks Eric!!! Your positive encouragement at the end was soooooo wonderful!

Keanu Reeves for future vids??? And what book (beginner level or something) would you recommend someone who is interested in reading up on MBTI with almost the same approach as you do with your videos???

Does the third function have this ability to temper the second function even if the attitudes are flipped, such as the Fi in the IxTJ termpering second function Te? Does your own INTP Si third function step in to temper your second function Ne? I thought such "tempering" came from the critical parent sixth function. Just wondering. BTW, that pulsating third function animation is awesome and a helpful way of demonstrating function flow.

I can hear the ENFP thing. I've been on the fence about ESFP and ENFP for a long time. For me the easiest way to understand her is with the Enneagram (counterphobic 6w7 w5). I think if she had less 7 she'd be more obviously ENFP. anyway your reactions are fun! I'de love a Kate Winslet if you want to do her

I totally relate. No wonder why I’m comfortable with listening to her stories and enjoy her humor. And I literally just saw a bumper sticker this week that I decided I should try to live by, so I don’t annoy people. “Nobody cares. Work harder.” Which is similar to something she said on one of the clips here. Lol.

Really interesting content! Thanks for an entertaining and informative interview.

i love this series, would love to see an analysis of beyoncé too ❤️

I have allowed people in my life to restrict my true self. It is very painful to having your creative and spontaneous side shut down by a partner who isn’t spontaneous and doesn’t like change. It feels like you have to kill apart of yourself to make the other person comfortable and happy. I end up doing more things by myself.

I love your videos so much! Been watching them for a long time and I love how much research you do, how clearly you explain your thoughts, your voice, and also the personal advice and reassurance for each personality type! Keep it up 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Can you do a video on Cha Eunwoo? He said his stage self is INFJ and his real self is ENTJ but so many people are curious what he really is. Thanks

I don't know why i didn't vibe with her before, but she seems very nice! I can see the ENFP. I'm a INFP and ENFPS are great friends helping us break out of our shell.

I'm an INFP and i have always weirdly related so much to ENFP's

Amazing analysis’ these are so fun to watch

I love Enfp's so much! They have such joyful energy.

Esto terminó siendo terapéutico aajajasbdj gracias Eric 🩵

What a great video, thanks for for it

Huge fan of yours. I love your videos. Would love to see your thoughts on Aubrey Plaza! :)

Yeah i love this woman thanks for the analysis :P

Please do Shawn Mendes

Based on what you said about Jenifer about NI FI and Te and how she struggled expressing herself but when she does she's amazing. Well that's me. But I got Entp like 10x not enfp

Could you do a mbti analysis of the Korean band, BTS? You seem to do a really good job at identifying personalities, and I would love to see your analysis on them.

I have a question. I feel like I am an infp but deeply resonated with what you said about te squishing ne and fi. Although te is the 4th function of infp, is it possible that my weaker te could be doing the same (especially because I am currently a masters student which is forcing te)? If not I might just be a more quiet enfp.

Hey eric can you analyse Aubrey Plaza's personality? She is so different in every interview throughout the years and even different in podcasts. I really wanna know her personality type

I kinda feel bad watching this video because my sister is an ENFP and all of the other family (including me) are all introverted. She can be really overwhelming when she talks/narrate every single thing, forgets the time, where her things are placed, etc. So we constantly ask her to be quiet, prepare her stuff, etc. 😶 With Te, she can be really helpful when she needs something to be done but damn being in the same room, I wanna pull my hair out sometimes 🤣 haha

Could you do Jackson Wang and Mark Tuan next?

Thank you so much for what you say about slowing down! So true.

I would love to see you expand your content by adding some Internet celebrities/streamers It would be fun to see for example analysis of XQC or Dr disrespect in the future :)

I believe that she’s an entp why you may ask, because she plays the intj character of Katniss to the exact T this coming from an intj and ENTP’s shadow functions are intj so this only makes logical sense of why she plays an intj character with greatness….

This video is awesome Eric! I guess everyone likes it when someone they think is funny and cool matches their type. 😄 Rob

Oh man, if I was around people like her with that amount of energy, I would freak out inside of myself and pray "when will it be over" and hold mix emotions without giving nothing away. 😆

I really need an analysis of Olivia Colman!!!

Typical ADHD personality then. Absolutely summed up me in everyway. People with ADHD get told they are bad. I was put in the “special learning “ group when I was about 7. I didnt care I was having a great time being myself - being silly and having fun. Then one day I realised where I was and how I was being restricted and judged. I suddenly was positively angry and became determined to show them I wasnt stupid and prove my value.... and I haven’t stopped since. I still have a silly side to me that only few people see - at work I am purely results driven... and I work toooo much!

I never thought I’d relate to someone as cool and fun as Jennifer Lawrence! I’ve always liked her

Please do one of Joe Jonas I'd like to know his personality 😊
