I have an interest in cognitive personality type or the MBTI. As a study of the types, here are my personal notes and observations about each of the types that I have encountered.
ESTJ | ESTP | ISTJ | ISTP |

ENTJ | ENTP | INTJ | INTP |
ENFJ | ENFP | INFJ | INFP |
Workaholic busybodies, want to be involved in everything. Prioritize being dutiful and responsible for the causes and projects they are involved with; enjoy being of help and useful to others. Intelligent, logical and fact-oriented. Very sociable peoples-people, can talk about almost anything freely and openly, conversations focused on current events, people and previous experiences "what happened and how did I feel about it"; little interest in considering underlying meaning, implications or abstract possibilities. Very attached to and romantic about their past experiences, can explain the physical details of their memories vividly, as if replaying a film scene. Very focused on physical details. Have a deep internal value system, moral and concerned with doing what's right according to their standards. They feel things deeply and intensely on some level, but it's rarely expressed save for when they are under too much stress to handle or their emotions have festered inside for a long time. Great at interpersonal problem solving and conflict resolution when prompted, find pragmatic solutions, but might have difficulty with understanding and honoring others' emotions, focusing instead on what's right and what makes sense. Have difficulty understanding and expressing their own emotional motivations. Concerned with doing the right thing and being a good person in their relationships, struggle with guilt when this conflicts with their busy lifestyle and career/personal ambitions. Extremely sensitive to expressions of anger, emotional outburst, passive aggressiveness, sarcasm.
