There are 16 personality types in the MBTI classification system, each of which consists of tendencies along four dimensions (extroversion-introversion, feeling-intuition, thinking-emotion, and judgment-perception). These four dimensions produce 16 different personality types, which are divided into four groups: SP type, SJ type, NF type and NT type.
SJ Type: Loyal Defender of Order
SJ stands for Sensing Judging. These people like tradition, security, and stability, pay attention to order and organization, are accustomed to following rules and procedures, and are good at completing tasks and plans. SJ types include ISTJ (Logistician), ISFJ (Defender), ESTJ (Executive), and ESFJ (Consul). These personality types share practical, methodical, and traditional values, and they typically excel at performing tasks and maintaining social relationships.
The core vocabulary of SJ personality is ‘dogma’. They are supporters of rules, and all major and minor matters in life revolve around their own inner principles, and sometimes they appear to be very stubborn.
SJ type MBTI personality
The most representative SJ personality is ESTJ. ESTJs are full of control over things around them, wishing to have absolute control over people and things, and do not want others to disobey their orders. Because of this, ESTJs are easily resented by those around them, especially their subordinates in the workplace.
ISTJ is also a very typical SJ personality, but it is much more low-key than ESTJ. The ‘dogmatism’ of ISTJ is mainly reflected in the rules and regulations of life. It can be said that ISTJ is one of the most secular and most suitable personalities for survival in Chinese society.
In contrast, ESFJ and ISFJ have some N feelings, which is true in daily life, but overall they are still personalities under the umbrella of ‘dogmatism’. ESFJs are enthusiastic and like to take care of those around them, but they are cautious and rigid in private. ISFJs are introverted and gentle, good at listening, and are good partners. However, they deeply recognize traditional concepts and are willing to bow to secular rules.
The following is a detailed explanation of each personality type:
