(SPOILERS) For those of you confused about why FJ, not TJ. The Fe pattern was much more pronounced and obvious when watching the hours of raw clips. Fe can also be quite authentic, genuine AND interested in laying down the rules. I'm sure those of you raised by ExFJ parents can attest to how Fe's can care just as much about rules and structure and enforcing as Te's haha. In the raw clips over time, it was more clear the motivations behind her authenticity are never Fi, and behind the rules are never Te. If you’d like to see some of the raw research or extra clips/analysis for yourself, it’s all on Patreon right now! Apologies for any confusion from my video but kudos for critically thinking for yourselves! Love it!
Watch your own video of Anya and compare her to Saoirse, you'll see how Saoirse is doing Te as a hero. ESTJ Te Si Ne Fi. She's good at separating herself from personal boundaries and what others expect because she's an ESTJ, she knows the rules, she has the reasons and she enforces them
I loved this analysis! I didn't expect her level of discipline but it makes sense since you really need it to make it in the industry. I love how she rolls with the punches and not too seriously, it's hard to be disciplined AND fun. Her extroversion comes from a place of authenticity and responsibility and not a need for individual expression and that's so unique. As an infj it's a struggle lol.
I would love to see an analysis on some older musicians like Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, Kurt Cobain, Robert Smith, Morrissey (he is very controversial but an extremly interesting person) or someone from the Beatles.
Really thanks for this video, Erik. 🤗 I'm an INFP and watch that kind of people, really motivates so much to keep improving myself, specially when I'm a little bit down.
ive been so excited to find a video of yours that goes against the usual consensus, and this is the perfect one. she uses too much Ne not to have it in her stack and enfj has never sat right to me. she's definitely a healthy Fe user, most of Ireland have a 'family' and 'unity' everyone-knows-everyone dynamic which is where I think that stems from.
It would be really interesting to see an analysis of Rooney Mara sometime. I really love the depth of your videos, and I think a video abt her would have a lot of potential ☺️
Very informative video Eric! PDB typed her as an ENFJ, but unfortunately that site has a lot of intuitive bias even if they are "educated" on functions. Her Si is extremely prominent.
@@EricWen People that type solely on visual typing need to understand other factors can manipulate body language. Plastic surgery - Health conditions - trauma - etc can all manipulate the human body. And that's not to say that I dont belive in it at all, it's just a system that is unreliable and wont give us the most accuarte results. The person cognition should allways come first! Visual typing is a good side note but nothing more. Of course this is just my opinion. Thanks again for the video Eric, your work is allways appreciated.
Eric, could you do an analysis for Cate Blanched she's one of the most amazing actress right now but I think that everyone had a hard time trying to figure it out what is his mbti. Could you please do it?
I thought I haven’t heard of her before, so I went to her Wiki page and saw I actually had seen one film she was casted in. Anyways, she kind of gave me Te-dom vibes at the beginning of the video, lol, but with the way you explain things, that makes total sense. :0
As INTP introverted sensing (Si) is my third function and I can definitely relate to Saoirse. She definitely learns from the past and tries to keep herself grounded. Past as a narrative to her life is very important.
Thank you so much for these videos! I love how you can make ANY cognitive function a superpower. It helps me to think better of my own set of CF (I used to really envy people who have Fe) and also understand better, how other people function. PS: Tip for another analysis: Emma Watson ;)
@@DirectFireDave sure, thank you for asking! I fell the Fe is skill more required and cherished by the society, like.. people having prominent Fe tend to be more aware of their surrounding and adapt better/quicker to the current situation, right? Which are skills the "group" benefit from. I am a prominent Fi user and sometimes I feel (haha!) that this skill is usefull only for me and nobody else. I noticed it more when I got more immersed into Korean culture, where quick adapting and "reading the room" are highly desired skills. Which I lack. 😅
I love her; she is down-to-earth and that's so refreshing these days. I would love it if you analyzed Evan Peters and/or Shailene Woodley. Slightly older actors, well, Joaquin Phoenix and/or Christian Bale.
Saoirse! ❤️ She's my foremost fave actress and yes, her interviews are all clear and fun. The extra clips & with chalamet analysis definitely gives me push to try signing up or whatever you do to have a Patreon acc. I hope you would do an analysis of Sabrina Carpenter & Drew Barrymore. ❤️
@@EricWen You're technique of explaining cognitive functions in between clips of people in your vids is my cup of tea. It's organized. 🙌 I tried watching other MBTI vids before COVID 19 but most of what I watched were sorted in a way that I could easily lose track of the functions they're referring to. I hope if ever you expand your platform, you try to consider typing fictional characters from films. I'll definitely check the how tos of opening a Patreon acc. ❤️
Saoirse will be considered as the greatest actor of time in the next ten years. She's rightfully called the next Meryl Streep but I think she's more talented than even Meryl Streep. Acting seems like it's in her genes.
I think culture also intermixes with personality. The Irish culture is very laid-back not necessarily conformist but very laid-back. That also has to do with the occupation/colonization of Ireland. Which plays out I believe in society
Totally get the confusion from the short clips in this video. The Fe not Fi pattern was much more pronounced and obvious when watching the hours of raw clips. Fe can also be quite authentic and interested in laying down the rules. In the raw clips, you can see the motivations behind her authenticity is never Fi, and behind the rules is never Te. If you’d like to see some of the research or extra clips/analysis it’s all on Patreon right now!
@@EricWen thanks for the reply! Don't worry about it. I am still learning too😅 I went to see her other interviews and you're right. She plays off the questions and people really well. I think your video of her interacting with Timothée will definitely demonstrate this clearly.
Thank you for this thorough breakdown. Comparing this with my functions notes from cs joseph, objective personality, you, and cluster of MBTI nerds in my life: you are correct. This is definitely an ESFJ. And I would know because I am an ESFJ. An ESFJ fueled by the tools of networking potential and JUSTICE to muscle through dense coursework of CS Joseph, Objective Personality Eric Wen, and a cluster of Observer leading friends that love MBTI and make typing look SOOOO easy. Well its not. ESPECIALLY when you lead with an extroverted decider function. It spends all day screaming "Oh Squirrel!" while our observers with room for a new voice of reason that finally has room to breathe and talk that's All. About. OURSELVES. Which we did after those embarrassing things that happened in middle school and repressed into the skeleton in the closet of our mind for a reason!
Interesting! I tend to type as an INTP (still up for debate) and have always related to her in many ways and have seen her as having certain strengths I’d like to mimic in some regards. An example being her seemingly well grounded Fe and her Si clarity shown within her communication. To me, interacting with an Fi user feels like being in direct sunlight outside - you get both the sunlight and the heat. Where as interacting with this style of Fe is more like being in an appropriately air conditioned room with great windows on a sunny day - you can enjoy the sunlight for what it is without experiencing the heat, or choose to jump in fully - it’s up to you. Both bring different value, and some people may often appreciate the straight forwardness of Fi more. Great video as usual!
I stumbled on this channel yesterday and its really got me thinking about personality vs environment and how much they play a part in a given situation.
Me too! Because it’s so true that the environment we grow up in have such a major impact on us, and it’s so important to point out. My best friend for example, she is an INTJ. And she’s so incredibly confident and what not, that people might think she’s an ENTJ. In the internet people give of the impression that INTJs can have bad confidence, be depressed etc. But she’s the most healthy and balanced person I know, and she had an amazing upbringing with extremely supportive parents. All of the most confident people that I know and have met, had supportive parents and a good upbringing with their family.
this is so insightful! As an ESFJ, I don’t really relate with how she said stuffs It shows that even after having similar cognitive functions, how different people can be!
Could you do Henry Cavill? I watch interviews with celebrities and I feel like I’m really good at guessing men’s mbti types, but I don’t know his. I think because I know other men that are INFPs and so on, I can really pick them out of a crowd so I’m thinking I don’t have anyone in my circles that are whatever his mbti is. I couldn’t tell Saoirse’s either and I don’t have anyone that I’m close with with her type. None of my friends or family are ESFJ. Thanks for this awesome channel!
the DP/30 interviews are amazing, particularly before the pandemic. He's kinda weird & borderline creepy sometimes but he pulls it off somehow & talks to a lot of big stars & has talked to Saoirse like 4 times since she was a kid . . good stuff.
Kind of wish you'd also type people by Enneagram. While most ESFJ are type 2 enneagram, I bet Saoirse Ronan is something like a type 7w6, which would account for her differences.
i really enjoy your analysis because they're so on point. can u do one on ezra miller? i think he's fasciniting and there's always something crazy happening around his mind (don't know his pronouns in case i missed them, sorry)
If there's enough proper evidence for something, I do keep track of those patterns in the back of my head when i'm talking to people...but it has to be substantial and recurring clues over some time...not just by looking at people or after small interactions bc I'm always concerned with being thorough and as accurate as I can. Thanks!
It's hard for me to imagine loving rules and structure too. It's just so antithetical to who I am. When I contemplate it too, most rules are obviously manmade; shoulds and shouldn'ts are not inherent in nature therefore they don't feel natural. But I like the rules that allow us to stay safe and peacefully co-exist.
As an INFP I feel like ive had multiple friends who were like her. They make me feel comfortable and are good at leading in awkward social situations. They noticed when i needed a little help cause i was feeling umcomfortable. But they can also be quite bossy 😂. Idk just my impression
I'd love to see you analyze Paul Dano, Aidan Turner, Scarlett Johansson, and possibly Adam Driver too! I think alot of people wanna see Adam Driver tbh, and lastly I wanna see Chris Hemsworth so bad ☺️
Are you sure she’s not an ESTJ? She seems to be concerned with rules, systems and objective logic, just to “get things done” efficiently. That seems like Te. That could be why she isn’t people pleasing at all and doesn’t really care and just focuses on what matters and is important. She might just be a charming kind of ESTJ
The Fe not Te pattern was a lot more pronounced when watching the hours and hours of raw clips - Loud signs of Ti and no Fi. Fe is also very much into rules, enforcing and structure…her focus behind all the rules was never just about efficiency or “getting things done”. It was more diplomatic, gracious and conscientious of either the people around her or the people involved with the project she was working on. if you wanna see the twitch stream showing some of the research or a bunch of extra clips/commentary I had to cut out of the video, it’s all on Patreon!
I didn't really watch much of her but that's the first type that came to mind. She doesn't seem to blend into her enviornment like an Fe user, she's not the prototype of the typical popular girl. She's more assertive, her manner of concern for the people around her seems very Te like. She reminds me of Bette Davis who I think was an ENTJ.
No because of how thoughtful she is of others. That's the difference. She and my husband are almost identical in personality. He is an ESFJ. I have never met a more caring individual who makes sure that the recycling is not mixed in with the garbage. He is a rule follower.
Nice video. I can relate to her attributes, quite a bit actually. I'm also curious how her Irish background contributes to her responses because her down to earth vibe reminds me of people that I've met from Ireland, Scotland, New Zealand, and Australia.
she is in complete control of her career. you will not see her in a marvel movie and she has no interest in that. not her bag. she is going to be a director and I can well see her do that. plus more stage work. she has a phenomenal recall. jim norton worked wtih her in the crucible and he was struggling so she saw that and sat down with him and what blew him away was she knew both of their parts and she had memorised the entire book. same with atonement. she got that role after one audition, she knew the part inside out.
i remember the first time I saw her in the clinic and that role was as a controlling child who chose to be with her father over her mother, as a child character she had ice in her veins. joe wright cast her in atonement after her first audition and she read the book inside out. and Briony Challis inside and out.
Hi i just wanna say that every test I've taken has said that I'm a ESFJ but they always mention that people pleaser part of and I never really related to until I watched the video i remember at some point in my life I was a people pleaser but I grew ot of it in my early teens. :)
Great video as usual! I appreciate your simple, clear, explanations of the cognitive functions. I'm curious if you would be willing to do a personality analysis of a Bruno from Encanto? I know it's a bit of an unusual request, but I saw a heated debate on personality-database and was curious about your take.
Just got around to seeing the movie for myself today - and got inspired to make an in-depth video talking about the characters and movie from a type perspective for my Patreon! If you were interested, just uploaded it there! Hope you enjoy!
@@mira961 yeah... with "Hollywood" I meant actressess (not singers).. so just wynona (if she is). I think that among the actressess Eric has analysized, Zendaya is the only introvert! (Infj)
Will you please create these personality videos with the following celebs and diversify? 1. Blackpink (all 4 members) 2. Eileen Gu (olympian) 3. Rihanna 4. Beyonce 5. BTS (all the members)
Nice to see another great analysis! It’s so interesting to see how SI works, so different then NI. I would like to see an analysis of Tupac Shakur if possible! I think he is an interesting person to analyse.
@@spacechampi0n i knoww she's one of the very few celebrities who actually typed themselves right. and she's also very easy to type too. i don't think she's very into typology tho i think she just took the test or smth and got the right results bcs she knows herself well. bcs if u know marina she's very open about her interests she would probably post about mbti and cognitive functions like she posts about astrology if she was into it
@@spacechampi0n also we all know she watches videos about herself and she's very into psychology, astrology, understanding herself, the world better so i think if there was a video analyzing and typing her she'd probably watch it and get into typology. i just know she'd get obsessed with it
I was thinking isfj not esfj because she was calm with people and herself and her Si is very dominant (and I tend to forget that extraverts exit 😁). And I didn't analyzed her that was a jump to the conclusion based on 1 interview from her that I've seen year ago and I had esfj in my mind but we've had so many esfjs that I tried to go with less obvious but still relevant
I really think she might be an ESTJ, but I see you've already talked about seeing Ti instead of Fi.... I'm not so sure but will watch more clips of her to check for Ti. Or if possible can you link a video timing of her Fe/Ti moment? Anyway Im really glad people are even having this debate because it shows we all have a similar understanding of the functions for the most part lol... awesomeeee
The dp30 interviews she’s done are good unedited and very authentic. Usually with ExTJ’s Te you still see that Fi individuality signal flare up over time. With her that never pops up. her personal sorting and creating boundaries imo was Ti, not Fi. A bunch more of the research with commentary is on my Patreon as well.
can you make a video of blackpink personality types? They are all so different from eachother and interesting in general. I think lots of people would love this kind of deep analysis video about them :)
I like how you spent the whole video talking about how responsible and rule-oriented she is but the first clip you showed was about her trying to convince someone to fake their ID.
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.
