Tevye MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Tevye? Tevye is an ENFP personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - so/sp - 962 in Enneagram, SLUAN in Big 5, IEE in Socionics.
His Fi is seen in his persistent inner conflict between valuing traditions while trying to be a good father who has genuine love and concern for his daughters. His almost excessive like introspection signifies that his inner moral compass is highly important to him. Being a moral person who does the right thing by an inner moral code preoccupies him much throughout the work. "If I Were a Rich Man" is peak ENFPness. He is clearly low in conscientious, does not enjoy working and daydreams about the "what ifs" and possibilities. It is classic ENFP laziness and rules out ENFJ or ESFJ. He is high in agreeableness as he tries to be polite and get along with the Czar even after the progrom. His agreeableness is also obvious as he switches decisions and is fickle on who his daughter is to marry, giving in to whoever he's talking to at the moment.
