Jane Fairfax MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Jane Fairfax? Jane Fairfax is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 9w1 - sp/sx - in Enneagram, in Big 5, ESI in Socionics.

Where is her Fe though? She keeps a low profile and blends in because she feels guilty for lying to everyone, and doesn't want to bring attention to her relationship with Frank. By the end of the book, living a lifestyle that contradicts her personal values makes her physically ill. Jane Austen even alludes that she takes on the role of Frank's moral compass, and he brings her out of her shell. She doesn't keep the peace, or strive for social harmony like an Fe user would do.
