[edit] Percentage of INFJs?

From the article: "The small number of this type (1 percent) is regrettable..."

I have seen the figure listed both as 1 and 2 percent. Off the top of my head, I know [1] has the figure at "little more than 2 percent." Does someone have a source showing 1 percent? Thanks. --Square pear 02:05, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

One percent is definitely wrong. MBTI guesses 1-3% [2], Socionics much more [3]. Of course it differs from the point of view and the definition of INFJs. --Gronau 08:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

The books by Keirsey usually say "1%". I have read others that say 1%. But some sites do say 1-2%. -- Andrew Parodi 17:24, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Type Descriptions

I just deleted the descriptions on all of these personality types. A lot of them were copyvios from different sources, several of them being from http://www.geocities.com/lifexplore/ , where they may or may not have been copied from other locations. Nonetheless, the three theories of MBTI, Keirsey Temperaments, and Socionics are quite different and require different descriptions of types, functions, relations, and other concepts. Socionics especially differs from the other two. The three theories should all be expanded upon in Wikipedia, but it is impossible to do this while there is a conglomeration of these three theories and they are treated as one and the same.
