INTPs are interested in grasping theories and underlying principles. They want to take apart the world around them and understand how it works from the ground up.

Their aim is precision and accuracy, and they don’t mind taking their time to analyze an idea or rule to see it from the most objective angle.

They are often given names likes “the absent-minded professor” or “the wizard”, but these stereotypes aren’t always fitting, or if they are, they fail to explain many characteristics of this type.
