Aram Mojtabai MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Aram Mojtabai? Aram Mojtabai is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - sp/sx - 468 in Enneagram, RCUAI in Big 5, in Socionics.
Definitely Ne-Si axis. He lets his emotions dictate his actions way too much to be a high Ti user (his emotions override logical decisions more than half the time) but he's not an unhealthy person. I just can't definitively decide between Fi (INFP) or Fe (ISFJ) but voting INFP for now. Not ENTP though. Said he's never been the type to break rules. I don't see how an ENTP would be uncomfortable with that or at least walking the gray line to get what they want, even before joining the FBI, not unless there was trauma around control or submission to authority but Aram doesn't have that issue. He's just naturally conscious about (internal) morals and (external) rules. That seems to point toward INFP. Edit: Season 9 is Aram's peak Fi-inf Te arc. *small spoiler* Struggled a lot with mentally reassembling the task force's social hierarchy levels in his head when he temporarily took over (indicating lack of Fe maneuverability). His leadership style is extremely Fi-Si-inf Te. Tried to stick to the rules to imitate the existing Te-Si structure that Cooper had in place, had a hard time bending/breaking existing rules and highly expected others to also stick to them with no room for error, added in silly little routines for others to get used to around him (no knocking on office door, always punctual or he gets grouchy) This seems like it is to make sure that his own idea of structure doesn't fall apart (child Si), but he reluctantly does bend rules not out of what would make the most logical sense of a situation but out of empathy for a person's circumstances. His Ne is very playful but is pretty much put in the back burner when he leads, which is in favor of Si that's needed for consistency in a leader. He is happy when he engages with Ne in his usual day to day (random facts/tidbits of knowledge/gets lost in branching thoughts), but it does not dictate his actions as strongly as Fi, which manifests as extremely strong convictions that override most things when he feels that something is "right" or "wrong". He gets stressed when he engages more in Si-Te behavior, since they are less developed, so he was very uncomfortable taking over Cooper's position, and did not wish to stay in it for long. Because Te is inferior, it acts more as a mirror in which he puts on as a mask (imitating Te behavior he's observed over the years) to do his job as the decision-maker until he can learn to become more naturally decisive/comfortable using it in tandem with Fi and stop using child Si [as in 'this is how it worked before, so this is how it should always work hereafter'] as a weak crutch in his leadership position. As an INFP who's been in leadership positions, this is a process that I'm familiar with and see it reflected in Aram.
