Personality snapshot

Sentinels give these results their edge. ESFJs (Consuls) are 44% more common than in the average country, and ISFJs (Defenders) and ESTJs (Executives) also turn up more often than usual.

Beyond that, the profile stays close to the middle. Respondents lean Intuitive and Feeling, yet they’re slightly more Observant than the average country, and they sit right at the average for Introversion. They lean Turbulent too, though less than test-takers in most countries, which puts them on the more Assertive side of the rankings.

About the country

Sweden stretches along the eastern side of the Scandinavian Peninsula, from Arctic Lapland, where the summer sun never sets, to the farmland and sandy beaches of Skåne. Forests cover about two-thirds of the country, and it has nearly 100,000 lakes. Sweden gave the world dynamite, the three-point seatbelt, and the Celsius temperature scale. Each winter in the village of Jukkasjärvi, artists build an entire hotel from blocks of Torne River ice.
