ISTP (7w6)
J.P. Shay personality type is ISTP, which is a combination of present-time perception, sensing and thinking.
In his book "The Magic of Thinking Big", David Schwartz states that ISTPs are generally very private people, and that they are "very good at getting things done, but they are not social people." He goes on to say: "If the ISTP is told to 'go social,' he will go to a social function, but he will not enjoy it, and he will certainly not stay long." According to Peter J. K. Berry, who writes about the ISTP personality type in "The Intuitive Counselor: A Guide to Working with ISTPs", it has been observed that ISFPs are more likely to be open and social with their coworkers if they are used to being alone and working in a private environment. The INTP type has been described by Berry as "a shy and private person who is often uncomfortable in social situations."
According to Barry Trachtenberg in his book "ISTP and INTP Personality Types: A Practical Guide", the social skills of an ISFP are not necessarily developed like those of other types because they "would rather be alone" and "do their own thing".
