How do you tell if you are an ISTJ or INTJ?
One of the key differences between INTJs and ISTJs is that INTJs are highly creative and like to use their imagination, whereas ISTJs like to deal in facts and details. Another key difference is that INTJs like things loose and are not fans of authority, while ISTJs like structure and rules.
Can you be both ISTJ and INTJ?
No. You can never hope to be both. INTJs and ISTJs may only have one letter separating them — yet the contrast is like night and day. INTJs and ISTJs are nothing alike.

What is the difference between ISTJ and INTJ?
INTJs and ISTJs can appear very similar. They both share the same extroverted function, which means that the key differences between the two lie in their introverted functions. Naturally, this makes the differences between the two types more subtle, or at the very least, concealed initially.
Do intjs tend to be introverted?
Their tertiary function — introverted feeling — is less developed, but it matures over time and may be more noticeable in older ISTJs and INTJs. Some younger types who are very self-aware and well-developed may also display their preference for introverted feeling in a more obvious way.
What are istjs like to make decisions?
ISTJs are very slow to make decisions. They will analyze of the details, all the facts, all of their past experiences, and etcetera when making important decisions. They’ll research something to death, and gather information from other people. They’ll want to make their decision as concrete as possible before finally choosing.
Can an ISTJ be ni dominant?
An ISTJ who actually recognizes himself (or herself) as an ISTJ, is unlikely to be wrong… unless he’s actually an ISFJ, but that’s a completely different issue that I covered here. My point is that an ISTJ (or an Si dominant) who recognizes himself as an Si dominant is unlikely to actually be an Ni dominant.
