Alice Oseman MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Alice Oseman? Alice Oseman is an ENFP personality type in MBTI, 4w3 - sx/sp - 415 in Enneagram, RCOAI in Big 5, IEE in Socionics.

She clearly types by dichotomy, and this is made ultra-clear via her character profiles, where she types her ultra-Fi main character (Charlie) ISTP. Worst of all, she typed an INTJ without an ounce of Fe (Tori) - INFJ. That's likely because the character herself is a kind, loyal person, and it'd be easy to describe her as someone who is "a feeler deep down". Note the words "deep down". That trope is super common with Fi tertiaries - being a secret softie. Vice versa is true for Ti tertiaries, who are often colder and more rational than they appear. Anyway, I wanted to use that example just as a precursor, so that we're clear about her not using the functions to type herself or her characters. As for her type, I think that anyone will be able to tell that she's an ENFP upon watching interviews featuring her. Her Fi is quite prominent for an auxiliary function, but nonetheless, an INFP with *that* much energy is nearly impossible. Her being a type 4 is likely what accentuates her Fi - makes more sense than the opposition, at least. Lastly, ENFP will sometimes type as INFJ by dichotomy when they're socially introverted and their Te is well developed, and she seems to fit both of those criteria.
