Personality snapshot

Middle of the road is the headline here. On every scale, these test-takers sit close to the average country. They’re slightly more Extraverted, Feeling, Judging, and Turbulent, though they still lean a little Introverted.

Diplomats are the largest Role. The clearest twist is a practical, organized streak. Sentinels are more common than average, and ESFJs (Consuls) appear 49% more often – the biggest gap for any type. ESTJs (Executives) and ISFJs (Defenders) are more common too, while INTJs (Architects), ISTPs (Virtuosos), and ISFPs (Adventurers) are rarer.

About the country

The United States crosses North America from the Atlantic to the Pacific, with Alaska reaching into the Arctic and the volcanic islands of Hawaii far out at sea. California’s coast redwoods are the tallest trees on Earth, while Death Valley holds the lowest point in North America. Yellowstone became the world’s first national park in 1872. The country gave the world jazz, basketball, and the airplane, and its astronauts were the first to walk on the Moon.

Where does this data come from?
From people who took our free personality test over 12 months, from October 2025 to September 2026. We only use anonymous totals, never anyone’s individual results.
What are places compared with?
Countries are compared with the “average country”: the average of all ranked countries, with each country counting equally – so countries where lots of people take the test don’t outweigh the rest. Regional maps, like Europe’s, use the average of that region’s ranked countries, and U.S. states are compared with the U.S. as a whole.
Which results count?
Each completed test counts once, so someone who takes it twice counts twice. We leave out tests that look skipped or automated, and we score every language version of the test the same way, so places can be compared fairly. A country needs at least 10,000 results – plus enough for its population – to be ranked and shown on our maps.
Are the results representative?
Not exactly: people choose to take our test online, so test-takers aren’t a perfect cross-section of any country. Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Turbulent people are probably a little more common among them everywhere. Because that tilt affects every place in much the same way, comparing places still works. Where very few people take the test, we can’t be as sure, so we don’t rank or map those countries.
Is the test only in English?
No – it’s available in 48 other languages, and results from every language are included.
