Average Weight (1 – 7) Placed on Each Most Important Idealist Value<br />
The average “weight” (ranking preference) placed upon a characteristic is a rough measure of how<br />
much that particular characteristic was valued relative to other characteristics. A characteristic<br />
could be ranked in first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh place. Some characteristics<br />
were considered very important to all NFs, while other characteristics were considered important<br />
only to some NFs. Here is a summary of the average weight that NFs placed on each characteristic.<br />
The number in [ ] brackets indicates the weight (if any) placed upon that characteristic by INTJs.<br />
