This creation from the 'Geek in Heels' blog assigns personality types to Star Wars characters, as based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. The test measures levels of extroversion, intuition, feeling, perception and classifies people based on the unique mix of these elements.
This hilarious sci-fi version of the Myers-Briggs test puts familiar faces to some of these classifications, like R2D2, who is deemed an 'ENTP' and 'The Inventor,' meaning that the robot displays characteristics of someone who is ingenious, outspoken and resourceful.
If you know which one of the Myers-Briggs personality types you fall under, it's interesting to see which type of character you might play in the Star Wars universe — as well as if this puts you on the light or the dark side.
