For the following descriptions a "o" basic level (not quite compensated) will be interpreted as a "c" or compensated.

In the following descriptions, you will read about the differences in strongly uncompensated or compensated adjustments (e.g. Eu+ or Ec+) vs. uncompensated or compensated adjustments (e.g. Eu or Ec). This tool does not attempt to make that distinction. Readers may attempt to determine from their own experience which most applies to them.

Basic ir*u (IuFcUu)

This is the most primitive of the IRU patterns and an tends to be relatively rare. In general, the ir*u has made little adaptation or modification of his primitive tendencies; he is a non-involving schizoid person with limited emotional control and little awareness of any need to develop social-interpersonal competence. At best, he is a self-centered, highly autistic person who is individualistic and self-seeking; at worst, he is the classic childhood schizophrenic who never develops beyond his autistic personalized world.

Like the ir*u*, [IuFcAc] discussed below, this is a narcissistic adjustment, but it lacks the negativism and social-interpersonal defensiveness of the ir*u adjustment. Instead, the ir*u is much more socially passive and insulated. The ir*a* [IuFcUc] has learned some form of social adaptation in his development that maintains him fairly effectively, but the ir*u remains socially and interpersonally insulated from the beginning without developing superficial maturity. He is completely succor dependent and needs constant care and attention, not because he demands it in an overt way, but because he is essentially helpless without it. Obviously, it is very difficult for the ir*u to achieve any sort of productive, adult adjustment. The extreme ir*u is very difficult, if not impossible, to test, so part of the rarity of this pattern stems from this. Some ir*u records will occur in individuals with organic conditions, but usually the pattern is a result of the impairment and masks the pre-organic personality pattern. The ir*u is often a management problem because he is abusive, overactive, and assaultive. There are definite childish temper tantrums that are unrelated to external events.

I spend a bunch of time to answer their dumb questions and I only get two paragraphs calling me a schizoid and saying they haven't really studied it. I don't even get to find out what kind of crimes I would commit. Fucking lame.

I thought the description of Fc personality types in general as sadists is funny though. I don't understand from the description why that's supposed to be the case at all.

IRU

Basically, I'm a great subordinate/foot soldier. People can usually tell that I'm Christian or not surprised that I am whatsoever lol
 
The CIA Perspective: If the CIA was looking at an IuRuAu, they wouldn't see a criminal; they would see a highly reliable asset. This is the person you give a secret to because you know they won't talk (I), they will follow the protocol (R), and they won't stand out in a crowd (A).

IFU

IcFuUc

Behavioral activity, self-sufficiency or independence, and social-interpersonal aggressiveness are the major characteristics of this adjustment derived from the primitive IFU orientation. Unlike the e*r*a*, [IcFcUc] the e*fa* has a well developed sense of responsibility and, in most instances, can sublimate or displace his primitive emotionality into productive and less personalized channels. Thus, the self-centeredness and stubborn individuality of the e*r*a* [IcFcUc] is not nearly as marked in the e*fa*. The e*fa* tends to be broadly humanitarian and is active in seeking out interpersonal relationships. However, he does not have the individual perceptivity of the efa* [EuFuUc] and is frequently judged to be sentimental, idealistic, and naive rather than truly empathic or discerning. Nevertheless, the e*fa* is oriented toward social responsibility, cultural sensitivity, and ideological consistency. Unlike the e*f*a*, [IcRcUc] the e*fa* will not take ideas and principles on faith; he must understand and believe in order to be effective. Consequently, he has less reliance on authority and convention in determining his attitudes and beliefs. There is a definite element of "free will" or choice in his values.

As a result, the e*fa* is less likely to mirror his sub-cultural milieu than is the e*f*a*; he will seek out and try to gain acceptance to those areas or fields that interest and challenge him. He does not have the conflict of the e*fa, [IcFuAu] who feels very similar but is more prone to conform or adapt to any social milieu in which he is placed even though he may not accept or believe in it. The deceptiveness of the e*fa [IcFuAu] -- the tendency to appear more comfortable and adapted socially than is the case -- is not characteristic of the e*fa*.

This need to search out and identify ideologically or idealistically with a compatible social-ideological environment is the primary drive force of the e*fa*. In this sense, he is individualistic and self-centered. However, he has marked need to rationalize or justify his actions on acceptable intellectual of social-idealistic grounds. Because of this, the e*fa* is usually not satisfied until he can proselyte others to accept and identify with his values and ideals. The e*fa* is a crusader and advocate. Normally, he accepts and attempts to become involved with only those who have attitudes and tastes similar to him. The acceptance anxiety of the e*fa*, then, is dynamically quite different than that of the ef*a*, [EuRcUc] although the superficial overt manifestations may be similar. The e*fa* is "anxious" that his values and beliefs be reciprocated so that he 'does not have to eliminate or change his associations; the er*a* [EuFcUc] is "anxious" that his values and beliefs be acceptable so that his associates do not reject him. The e*fa* tends to be independent of his associations while the ef*a* [EuRcUc] to be dependent on theirs.

While the e*fa* is basically humanitarian by principle, he can often be ruthless in practice. This occurs because he is often more interested in what a person should be than in trying to understand what he is. The productivity of the efa*, [EuFuUc] for example, is often complicated by the fact that his individual empathy makes him more of an apologist than a realist. He becomes confused by the exceptions of individual empathy makes him more of an apologists than a realist. He becomes confused by the exceptions of individual differences and tends to over-react to them. The e*fa*, on the other hand, easily recognizes how social systems, lack of opportunity, and inadequate education may produce inefficient or inadequate people. He feels that if the social system is overhauled, the opportunities provided, the educational system is corrected, those who do not benefit because they are truly inadequate, fundamentally ignorant, and basically lazy. Such people can easily be ignored or eliminated without guilt or anxiety because they are not worthy of existence. Depending on the life experience of the e*fa*, he can be a "busy-body" who is constantly engaged in trying to change the life goals and patterns of others, a competent, creative person who is skilled at finding new and better ways of doing things, or an intensely dedicated idealistic who believes that when the right social order has been created, he is justified in eliminating the misfits and insidious influences.

In general, the e*fa* individual is an ambitious, active, often aggressive, self-sufficient person who, is one form or another, is very much dedicated to change, modification, perfection, and social control. Whatever his political, social, religious, or institutional values, from his point of view, they are precise, well-defined, and fully understood. He not only expects but demands that others accept and identify with his values and beliefs. He is rather easily disillusioned, but is more likely to project against systems -- heretical ideas, the capitalistic system, the education system -- than to become introspective and evaluative. His primary psychological problems occur when he does not have social mobility through which he can find a compatible milieu. When his mobility is blocked, as for example, when boxed in by a caste, feudal, or religious system or social order, by an institutional setting, or by family tradition, he does not accept or understand; he becomes subversive, devious, and sometimes actively revolutionary.

I'm a ruthless crusader and revolutionary

At best, the iru is a schizoid, and even schizophrenic, person who is compulsive, ritualistic, and poorly socialized.

MY VERY EXISTANCE IS UNDER ATTACK!
I imagine that if I wasn't married to a wonderful person who keeps me behaving somewhat normally my life would be a fucking nightmare.

In general, the ifa is a sensitive, but self-centered person who is artistic or "cultivated" in one form or another. He develops and exploits his mental skills in intellectual and creative ways. He often has highly mystical and spiritual values, usually places great store on his ability to be intuitive, but is very vulnerable to discouragement and disillusionment.

So i'd make a pretty bitching warlock
 
I got IU/FC/AC, what dat mean?
Edit:
Social and Emotional Traits: They are externally involving, empathic, and socially adept, with a strong sense of conscience and responsibility that curbs self-centeredness. However, they often experience guilt, anxiety, and feelings of inferiority, especially when losing support or facing seduction followed by remorse. Moodiness, frustration, and emotional distress are common, with hostility expressed indirectly as bitterness or cynicism rather than outright confrontation.
Behavioral Patterns: Behavior shows variability, ranging from sensual and active to inhibited and dependent. They display fickle attention, weak verbal memory, and a preference for familiar, ritualistic situations. Conservative, cautious, and lacking in ambition or versatility, they thrive in procedural or manual tasks but struggle with inconsistency in undefined scenarios. Learning tends to be rote and non-insightful, with elements of literalness, dogmatism, and prejudice.
Interpersonal Dynamics: Highly dependent on external guidance, supervision, and reassurance for effectiveness, they conform to clear directions and adapt to change without true independence. Loyalty to authorities and supporters is strong, but they approach responsibilities mechanically, often as a means to earn support. They provide stability in changing environments through adaptability and conformity, excelling in roles requiring procedural skills or management under supervision, though they may withdraw or become apathetic under excessive responsibility.
Strengths and Vulnerabilities: Potentially creative with keen perceptivity and empathy, they enjoy vicarious interests (e.g., collecting, fandom) but rarely engage directly due to low confidence. Primary challenges include over-emotionality, stubborn individuality, sensitivity to criticism, and a low threshold for embarrassment, leading to tense, self-evaluative introspection. Overall, this type balances environmental interaction with internal controls, fostering reliability in supportive settings while risking emotional turmoil in isolation.
Meh I agree with certain aspects but not overall. I don't think you can get a clear picture of someone's personality with 100 questions, over a third of them being repetition of previous ones

Oh wow, welcome to the super duper rare club
I'll translate it to useful language
This is a relatively rare basic pattern, partly because of low incidence among normals it appears infrequently in the general population and partly because persons with extreme patterns are usually not testable individuals at the extreme end of this pattern are often difficult or unwilling to participate in testing. In the extreme, this is a schizophrenic adjustment with strong inward focus in which the individual is highly self-involved, autistic, and socially isolated or defensive has a predominantly self-contained mental life and a tendency toward social withdrawal or defensiveness. Like the ir*u, [IuFcUu] this is a childhood schizophrenic or an immature schizoid adjustment reflects an early-forming adjustment characterized by pronounced inward orientation and limited social integration. At best its mildest, people with this pattern are very narcissistic show a strong degree of self-focus. Fantasy, auto sensuality self-directed sensory experience, and introspective versatility flexibility of inner reflection are more marked in the ir*u* than in either the iru* [IuRuAc] or the iru. [IuRuUu] Although he can be imaginative and creative, the productivity output of the ir*u* is so individualized or personalized that it has limited only minimal social usefulness or applicability in shared social contexts.

Unlike the ir*u, [IuFcUu] the ir*u* must manifest some active social hostility opposition in order to protect his intimacy and self-involvement inward focus. There is much more tendency for attempts at involvement with the ir*u* because he is a primitive A, Because he is more open to engagement due to being a primitive A, he is more likely to attract attempts at social involvement, making it necessary for him to develop some kind of insulation from social protective barriers against interaction. Extreme negativism Strong oppositional tendencies, manifested early in his life, is usually characteristic of this adjustment. Tantrums, "fits," and similar behavior Intense emotional reactions and episodes of overt resistance not only characterize his early life, but are usually very much a part of his adjustment all through life.

If it helps, I think I’ve only had two other people get mine. Seems like the site attracts an inordinate amount of 2-3 specific personality types, and all the rest come in much smaller quantities.

This is the most primitive of the IRU patterns and an tends to be relatively rare.

I, too, got the deranged and needy autistic retard personality.

It'd be a little bit more offended if it wasn't almost completely wrong though. I don't get it, half of it described the opposite of what I believe myself to be. Maybe I'm just delusional beyond recognition.

IuFcUc
This is a relatively rare basic cluster that is, essentially, an ambulatory schizoid pattern with many features in common with ir*a. [IuFcAu] The primary difference, which is important, is that the ir*a* has had to exert considerable energy and an effort to develop social-interpersonal effectiveness. The stereotyped or set role that he assumes gives him a very uniform and an often "wooden" surface personality appearance; he may have a robot-like manner that is inappropriate or, at best, superficial. Fundamentally, the ir*a* is an emotionally detached, non-involving person who is self-centered, and usually narcissistic, with primitive emotional control. He covers these features with a very superficial social-interpersonal awareness that makes him appear to be more responsive and an perceptive than is true, in fact.

Ritualism, compulsivity, and social inappropriateness are common features in this adjustment. The ir*a* is strongly succor dependent and an constantly seeks security and protection, at almost any cost. This is perhaps the least loyal of all basic adjustments because the ir*a* is so self-seeking and so self-involved that he will try to adapt to almost any situation that will support him or give him succor. Since he is not particularly successful in getting support, he will try to earn it by being ingratiating and even fawning. This is the pattern of the toady and the sycophant. When rejected or denied, he becomes groveling and sniveling, but he is also capable of vindictive and malicious action in order to gain curry favor elsewhere. This sort of person is almost incapable of true emotional involvement with anyone, but will use apparent involvement to gain his own ends and serve his own needs.



Defensiveness, negativism, and an guilt reactions are not characteristics of the ir*a*, for he has a childlike naivete about the validity of his judgements that cause him to have little anxiety and self-doubt about the justice of his needs. He cannot tolerate isolation, since this heightens the chaos and confusion in his autistic productivity. Since he has no self-discipline to manage these tendencies, he is active and demanding in social-interpersonal relationships. He needs relationships with others and may become terrified when forced to be alone. He can, and will, do almost anything to keep from being abandoned. This behavior should not be confused with the acceptance anxiety of the er*a, [EuFcAu] who will do almost anything in order to be liked or appreciated. The ir*a [IuFcAu] does not need to be liked; he does need someone to take care of him.

Some ir*a* individuals with high intellectual levels may be fairly effective in the sense that they conform to the requirements of any group that provides them security. However, once they meet the qualifications of the group, they have little need to be productive in order to maintain themselves. They are perfectly capable of thinking that since they have earned security (labor union status, a college education, a medical degree, tenure, etc.), the world owes them a living. At average and an below intellectual levels, this adjustment is a clear cut sociopathic one and can produce some of the most dangerous members of society.

This thing says here I'm a IFU, whatever that means.
Primitive Type: IFU
To mold his adult personality, the [IFU] depends heavily upon the guidance and direction of external events. Initially, he resists authority and direction. However, if contact is made and the initial resistance mitigated, the [IFU] is potentially very creative and very productive. He is not imitative, nor does he assimilate and apply instructions in rote fashion.

Since social-interpersonal involvement is no problem for him, he expends little effort finding time for individual or personalized activity. Initially, he is in danger of becoming so autistic and nonresponsive that he risks never making contact with reality. The [IFU] is so obviously non-responsive that rarely does he escape pressure to develop responsiveness. Unlike the [IFA], it is very difficult for the [IFU] to cover his schizoid activity by superficial role playing ability, so the pressure tends to be unrelenting and consistent. The [IFU] rarely can make a superficial social-reality adjustment; he must constantly prove that he is perceptive, alert and responsive. Once the contact is established, the curiosity inherent in the [IF] adjustment will take over and the [IFU] will actually relate to reality eagerly and will find considerable psychological satisfaction in his versatility. Since a great deal of his energy is not dissipated in superficial social relationships and since he is fairly untroubled by absence of reciprocal emotional involvements, there is often an excellent chance that the [IFU] individual will develop extremely versatile and highly competent interests that have real social relevance. Depending upon his background and experience, these may be either mental-intellectual activities or manual-manipulative ones. In either case, the [IFU] is likely to excel because he has to prove his competence before he is let alone.

The [IRU] usually has to be taken step by step because he learns by imitation and rote, but the [IFU], once he gets started, is capable of considerable imagination and self-sustained inspiration. In other words, he is capable of learning by implication, principle and insight. In fact, one of the primary problems of the [IFU] is that he may become so involved in the implications and subtleties of his interests that he gets lost in his subject at the expense of other interests. This is not the same as the perseveration of the [IRU], but in many ways the effects are similar. It is often necessary to force the [IFU] to abandon one activity for another before he has a real sense of closure. As an adult, he is prone to become the highly specialized individual who finds great psychological satisfaction in exploring the nuances of his subject.

The maturation rate of the [IFU] is erratic. On the one hand, if his intellectual curiosity is stimulated, his intellectual maturation may be very rapid. On the other hand, social maturity for the [IFU] is probably the slowest of any group. The combination of the preoccupations of the [IFU], plus his own lack of need of social-interpersonal interaction, plus his relative lack of impressionistic attractiveness, results in only slight acquisition of social-interpersonal skills. To a certain extent, the inherent creativeness and imaginativeness of the productive [IFU] leaves his contemporaries and authority figures in awe of his intellectuality or performance, and they therefore tend to overlook his social-interpersonal immaturity. Many odd and unusual individuals come from this pattern, because the [IFU] generally is indifferent and insensitive to involvement with others. This is the pattern of the "absent-minded professor," and "the long-haired intellectual." He is unconventional, not because he is defensive, self-protective or negativistic, but because he is insulated against the need to be any different. However, it should also be emphasized that since the [IFU] is so indifferent to social convention, he sometimes encounters extreme pressure for modification. Consequently, some [IFU] s become extremely fastidious and exact in their social behavior. Some of the most vivid social stereotypes will also come from this group.

The [IFU] begins life as behaviorally a very passive but mentally a very active individual. He engages in considerable spontaneous ideational activity. His ultimate adjustment is a function of the extent this spontaneity is channeled and controlled. Although he has little real need to communicate in the [E] sense, he does have considerable need to symbolize or organize the chaos of his initial mental activity. Also, he has fundamental succor dependency needs that, initially at least, must be recognized and responded to. The "doll baby" quality of the [IFA] is not present in the [IFU]; thus, to a high degree, the care and treatment of the [IFU] comes from a sense of responsibility and duty, rather than from love and affection. He never receives the generalized pampering of the [IFA], but will frequently come in for a specific type of pampering.

The task-oriented individual will find the [IFU] very responsive to direction. The same is true of the [IRU], except that the spontaneity and creativity of the [IFU] not only embellish and color what he learns, but will also attract the attention and devotion of those who are interested in creative activity. The [IRU] tends to reflect faithfully the milieu from which he emerges; the [IFU] is less willing to mirror his experience and thus will show more mobility and more individual preference. For example, in learning languages, the [IFU] does not have a compelling need to communicate, but he does have a need to symbolize. If he grows up in an environment rich with vocabulary, he will acquire a rich vocabulary. If he grows up in a culture barren in language, he will not only learn the language required, but will also invent a language of his own to embody the nuances he feels a need to symbolize. As a very small child, there may be some delay in learning accepted language forms because his own inventiveness may satisfy his symbolizing need. If his mother can understand his private language and gives him the succor dependence he needs, he may be unusually slow in learning standard language forms. Later in life, the highly intelligent [IFU] may have considerable language or symbolic facility; this pattern produces such specialists as cryptographers and linguists. The symbolic language of mathematics and science are also of particular interest to this group. In more primitive societies, the "strange tongues" of religious ecstatics and mystics may come from [IFU]'s of lower intelligence.

One of the most dramatic examples of the difficulties in establishing communications with an [IFU] and an equally dramatic example of the potential for communicating, once effective contact is made, is to be found in the life of Helen Keller.

>the [IFU] depends heavily upon the guidance and direction of external events.
Very true.

>Initially, he is in danger of becoming so autistic and nonresponsive that he risks never making contact with reality.
:story:

> there is often an excellent chance that the [IFU] individual will develop extremely versatile and highly competent interests that have real social relevance.
Perhaps I'm not reading correctly into it, but I feel that the test is making the assumption that my interests now are somehow socially relevant, when its mostly non-work/non-socially relevant things (in my social area) that I have no one else but the Farms to talk about it.

>The [IRU] usually has to be taken step by step because he learns by imitation and rote, but the [IFU], once he gets started, is capable of considerable imagination and self-sustained inspiration. In other words, he is capable of learning by implication, principle and insight.
I think on the basis of personal thoughts/memories, I cannot really say if I believe in this, because its hard for me to measure the best way that I learn. In personal memory, I've always been a bit slow, especially in the directions department.

>The maturation rate of the [IFU] is erratic. On the one hand, if his intellectual curiosity is stimulated, his intellectual maturation may be very rapid. On the other hand, social maturity for the [IFU] is probably the slowest of any group.

I was gonna make a rebuttal to this, but I think I'd just be proving it's point.

Can a smart person break this one down for me? I'm somewhat opposed to what I think it's saying but if it was broken down to be easily understood I think I could grasp what it means more.

>For example, in learning languages, the [IFU] does not have a compelling need to communicate, but he does have a need to symbolize.

That's actually pretty spot on.

while I would sure the results for the second assessment, it was pretty damning and I did not feel good about what I read.
edit: it was Basic ir*u
Basic ir*u (IuFcUu)

This is the most primitive of the IRU patterns and an tends to be relatively rare. In general, the ir*u has made little adaptation or modification of his primitive tendencies; he is a non-involving schizoid person with limited emotional control and little awareness of any need to develop social-interpersonal competence. At best, he is a self-centered, highly autistic person who is individualistic and self-seeking; at worst, he is the classic childhood schizophrenic who never develops beyond his autistic personalized world.

Like the ir*u*, [IuFcAc] discussed below, this is a narcissistic adjustment, but it lacks the negativism and social-interpersonal defensiveness of the ir*u adjustment. Instead, the ir*u is much more socially passive and insulated. The ir*a* [IuFcUc] has learned some form of social adaptation in his development that maintains him fairly effectively, but the ir*u remains socially and interpersonally insulated from the beginning without developing superficial maturity. He is completely succor dependent and needs constant care and attention, not because he demands it in an overt way, but because he is essentially helpless without it. Obviously, it is very difficult for the ir*u to achieve any sort of productive, adult adjustment. The extreme ir*u is very difficult, if not impossible, to test, so part of the rarity of this pattern stems from this. Some ir*u records will occur in individuals with organic conditions, but usually the pattern is a result of the impairment and masks the pre-organic personality pattern. The ir*u is often a management problem because he is abusive, overactive, and assaultive. There are definite childish temper tantrums that are unrelated to external events.
