ISFP (4w3)
Hamlet personality type is ISFP, while the Telemachus personality type is ESFP.
It’s a relief that the picture of Hamlet that emerges from this study is not the narcissistic, self-centered jerk that some people think he is. Instead, the ISFP appears to be a curious, perceptive boy who is perhaps struggling at times with his developing awareness of the human condition. He might also have been a bit of a puzzle to his mother and father — although he certainly knew what he was doing — and he might have been a bit of a royal pain to other people in his life too.
It’s ironic that Hamlet was an ISFP, since many people think that ISFPs are more likely to be introverted and shy than SFPs (extraverted feeling types). However, based on the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI), ISFPs are actually more outgoing and extroverted than SFPs (Extraverted sensing types). Although ISFPs feel more empathy for other people than do SFPs, they feel more compassion for others than do ESFPs (Empathetic sensing types).
