I've lately gravitated to using a single key diagnostic for reading people: what behavior that you're normally capable of collapses under stress? You need the two sets of observations under distinct conditions to use this obviously, but it's one of the least noisy tests.

The stressed personality is always a weak/fragile/brittle version of an adjacent personality type that others do more comfortably/natively. So a good way to suss it out is to ask "what is this behavior a bad/incompetent version of?"

You might know this: Is there a bestiary of common clusters for Big 5 (OCEAN) personalities the way Myers-Briggs does?

I don't know. I don't use OCEAN much. I think it's a weak model for the overly empiricist crowd :D

Since I have to know now: how does ENFP collapse under stress?

Here's where I think you're wrong. I don't think that people under stress fail into the nearest adjacent MBTI category Perhaps under microstresses? I see way more tendency for people to cross into a different macro quadrant in the 2x2

I think it's pretty messy, but the general rule seems to be something like TiNe flips to TeNi etc. iirc that's the calculus they use. I don't use their inference mechanism, just the language/labels

I thought you were on to something, then I saw the Myers Briggs astrology
