ISFP

The ISFP personality type is one of the 16 personality types described by Isabel Briggs-Myers and Katherine Cook Briggs, and stands for Introversion, Sensing, Feeling, Perceiving.

Jung's Analysis
Carl Jung had first categorized his subjects as leading from one of four separate axioms of being: Thinking, Feeling, Sensation, Intuition, and paired this with their preference for either Extroversion or Introversion.

In the case of both the ISFP and INFP, Jung would have characterized this type as having dominant Introverted Feeling (Fi), which is primarily characterized by an allegiance to deep rooted principles about how the world should be, and a sense of following one's own path for it's own sake.

Personality Basics
ISFPs are primarily characterized as creative, dreamy, emotional, artistic, and aesthetically gifted. They are quiet individuals who typically do not wish to change other people and are likely to believe in the motto 'Live and let live'. IDRlabs claims this type is 'strongly linked to the Dependent personality'. One trait that differentiates them from the similar INFP type, is that ISFPs typically find self-expression more difficult, and will be less likely to use stories and long sentences for this. Instead, they may use their art as a direct expression of their feelings, which may explain why many famous pop musicians were ISFPs, such as Michael Jackson, Prince, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Kate Bush and David Bowie to name but a few.
