Juror #9 MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Juror #9? Juror #9 is an ENFJ personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - sp/sx - 964 in Enneagram, SCOAI in Big 5, EII in Socionics.

I probably agree with the previous comment about him being an ENFJ. He was the first one to change his vote, and did that because juror 8 was up against eleven people who disagreed with him, he gave him support and acted openly . It didn't come from a logical statement (Ti) or pattern realization (Nx), quote: "The boy in trial is probably guilty, but I wanna hear more." Which shows his awareness of the atmosphere and outward values brought up by others. (Fe) He was good at reading people and understanding their motives, he also had good attention to the sensory world as a whole and could find his own perception of a narrow running theme, which is Witnesses lying about the case. (Fe-Ni-Se). For example paying attention to the old man at the trial and middle-aged woman's glasses. In the old man's case, he saw and understood the chance for the old man to lie about recognizing boy's voice at the trial and sympathized with him. (Fe-Ni). It didn't come from a personal experience, but the ability to read and analyze the aura (?!?) surrounding those people in order to get in their mindsets. (Fe-Ti axis) Same with the middle-aged woman's attempts who was trying to look younger in order to have a better impact. These recurring patterns of analyzing strikes me more as Fe-Ni rather than Fi-Ne.

Biography

As described in the original screenplay: "70 years old. Retired. A mild, gentle old man, long since defeated by life, and now merely waiting to die. A man who recognizes himself for what he is, and mourns the days when it would have been possible to be courageous without shielding himself' behind his many years. From the way he takes pills whenever he is excited, it is obvious that he has a heart condition."
