MBTI's 16 types × attachment's 4 styles = the complete catalogue of 64 characters.
Each character carries an appearance rate and a rarity based on actual quiz data.
Appearance rates come from the distribution across 42,357 quiz responses. Types with larger numbers are more easily understood by those around them, and types with smaller numbers take more effort to explain, and their individuality stands out for it. Neither is above the other.

🐾 Take the free quizThis page lists the 64 types obtained by multiplying MBTI's 16 types by the 4 attachment styles. What MBTI explains is how you take in information and how you judge; what attachment style explains is how you close distance with people. These are separate axes, so behaviour that one alone cannot explain is left over. That is why the same INFP behaves in love almost like a different person as a secure type and as a fearful-avoidant type.
Four of the same MBTI type stand side by side, so comparing those four is the shortcut to understanding. The way of thinking is the same; the only difference is how distance is kept. If you know your own type, try reading the other three of the same MBTI. You will see concretely why you are that one. Tapping each type takes you to the detailed commentary on personality, love, work and compatibility.
If you have not taken the quiz yet, starting from the 46-question 64-type quiz is the shortest route. If you already know your MBTI from elsewhere, you may also read and compare the four of that four-letter code and pick whichever is closest to you. Choosing on the basis of how you behave in love makes the attachment style easier to pin down.
The number 64 is the result of multiplying MBTI's 16 types by the 4 attachment styles. The secure type (S) refers to a state in which neither drawing close nor moving away sets off excessive vigilance. The anxious type (A) is one in which strong distress appears during the time the other person's reaction cannot be read, and the frequency of checking and contacting goes up. The avoidant type (V) finds that the more intimacy increases, the more suffocation rises, and keeps itself intact by taking distance. The fearful-avoidant type (F) is an arrangement in which both work at once, the wish to draw close and the wish to flee existing at the same strength. These four are not good or bad personality but a "default setting for distance," formed by the accumulation of relationships from early childhood to now. The same four-letter MBTI is split into four because when this setting differs, everyday behaviour changes.
16 × 4, so about 1.6 percent each — it does not work out that way. In this site's measured quiz data, the appearance rate differs several times over between MBTI types, and the distribution of attachment styles is also skewed by type. Introverted, feeling-leaning types tend to gather anxious and fearful-avoidant styles, while extraverted, thinking-leaning types tend to show relatively more of the avoidant style. The result is "phantom" combinations you almost never actually meet, and majority combinations you see every time you search. How rare your own type is can be checked as a rank on the rarity ranking page.
"We have the same MBTI, and yet that person and I go about love completely differently" — this sense of dissonance is the starting point of the 64-type framework. What MBTI explains is the habit of cognition: how you take in information and how you judge. On the other hand, whether you can wait for a message from someone you like, whether you can go to them first after a fight, whether you imagine the worst when the other person falls silent — these do not come out of MBTI's four letters. What fills that in is attachment style. It becomes easier to use them separately if you think of it this way: in work and study, MBTI's explanatory power is high, and in close relationships such as love and family, attachment style's explanatory power is higher.
