Personality snapshot

Imagination with a plan is the standout mix here. Rhode Island’s respondents are the second most Intuitive in the country and among the most Judging, so their big ideas tend to arrive with a schedule attached.

None of their differences from the U.S. as a whole is large, but together they tilt the group toward Diplomats. Explorers are scarcer, with ESTPs (Entrepreneurs) nearly a quarter less common. INFJs (Advocates), who blend Intuition, Feeling, and Judging, appear more often than nationally.
