Personality

What personality type is Cameron Frye? Cameron Frye is an INTP personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - sp/so - 614 in Enneagram, RLOEN in Big 5, ILI in Socionics.

No way is Cameron agreeable/accommodating in Big 5. Let's look at how he would score on the sub-traits: Trust - Very, very low. Throughout the movie Cameron is suspicious of basically everyone he meets (in some cases for good reason). Earnestness - Medium-low. He's not as overtly manipulative as Ferris but still goes along with his schemes, for instance posing as Sloane's father in order to trick Rooney. Altruism - Low. Cameron isn't an a**hole, but he certainly can be absorbed by his own problems and doesn't seem to take any particular interest in helping/caring for others. Cooperation - Medium to high. He's pessimistic and stubborn but rarely goes out of his way to start conflict, and sometimes tries to smooth it over. Modesty - It's hard to tell because his apparent self-esteem issues seem to largely stem from his depression, making them more of a facet of his high neuroticism than true modesty. Sympathy/compassion - Likely low. Cameron critical, fussy, assumes the worst of others and almost never gives the benefit of the doubt. So ultimately, we have 4 low to medium-low, 1 medium-high and 1 for which it's unclear. But that's obviously enough to demonstrate that he's egocentric. (Also, once again, 614 > 694; he definitely has the more structured, rigid attitudes of a 1 fixer.)
