Personality snapshot
Nowhere in the U.S. do respondents lean more Introverted or more Prospecting than in Alaska. Test-takers here tend to recharge on their own and keep their plans open, and the types that stand out fit that pattern. INFPs (Mediators) are 23% more common than across the U.S. INTPs (Logicians) and ISTPs (Virtuosos) also show up more often. Outgoing, plan-ahead personality types are rarer – ESFJs (Consuls) are about a third less common.
About Alaska
Alaska is the largest U.S. state by area, separated from the contiguous states by Canada and bordered by the Arctic Ocean, the Bering Sea, and the Pacific. Its vast landscape includes glaciers, tundra, active volcanoes, and Denali, the highest peak in North America. Fishing, oil, and tourism anchor the economy, and Alaska Native peoples have lived in the region for thousands of years.
