Jamie Fraser MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Jamie Fraser? Jamie Fraser is an ENFJ personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - so/sx - 926 in Enneagram, SLOAI in Big 5, SEE in Socionics.
(This is long so bear with me.) Jamie is an ENFJ. However, if you don't read the books, you won't see how fleshed out his personality is. Just reading the first one is enough to clarify that he's an ENFJ. Jamie is a primary Fe user and he has been since he was a kid. This can be shown by how he has lied for people many times and almost never tries to hurt others. Jamie knows how to cooperate with people and always looks out for his loved ones. He's also shown to be a natural at consoling others and eager to protect anyone he believes is innocent. Ultimately, Jamie values ensuring harmony between individuals, even if that means breaking traditions and cultural values. Jamie's Fe is what makes him a perfect partner for Claire, he doesn't care about being a strict and controlling husband like most men in the Highlands. Jamie is willing to be the man that Claire wants and needs. It's more so explained in the books, but Jamie is described as having a "Sixth Sense" which allows him to tell if people are lying or if someone's following him and so on. In the books, it emphasizes that while he was living as an outlaw, this "sense" saved his life multiple times. This is present because of Jamie's auxiliary Ni. The most apparent sign of his Ni is when Claire confesses that she's from the future. Despite being shocked and confused, Jamie still somehow knows that she's telling the truth. Jamie's tertiary is Se and it's very well developed for many reasons. The main one would be because he lives in the 1700s where Se activities would be part of everyday life. Jamie also has a lot of Se hobbies that he can set his hands to, such as caring for horses and swordsmanship. Inferior Ti is harder to see, but Jamie has mastered it enough to utilize it more than often. A key part of his Inferior Ti is a framework built around the customs of his culture in the Highlands. It forms a framework which he uses as a lens to his everyday life. This is also covered more in depth in the books. Jamie feels responsible to adhere to these expectations, but usually only does when he's pressured to. An example of this is in the Reckoning where he beats Claire with his belt as "punishment". Jamie makes it clear before and after that he doesn't want to do it, but that he "has" to. Another example is when, Dougal relentlessly shows off Jamie's scarred back to the Mackenzie tenants as proof of the Redcoats brutality. In the books, he even confronts Dougal about this and that he has vowed his obedience, but he should still be respected and not brandished as evidence. (Afterwards, he has his back turned and calls out to Claire that he knows she's watching, Ni once again). Ultimately, Jamie is a very healthy ENFJ and it shines mostly in the books.
