I read about the Myers Briggs personality test and thought I would research that for the day. I thought others might enjoy the possibilities and insights that this test could provide into the human psyche. I would like to encourage / challenge each of you to take the time if you have not already to find the test that best suits your needs and invest a few minutes in self exploration.
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a personality test designed to assist a person in identifying some significant personal preferences. Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers developed the Indicator during World War II, and its criteria follow from Carl Jung's theories in his work Psychological Types.[1]
The Indicator is frequently used in the areas of pedagogy, group dynamics, employee training, leadership training, marriage counseling, and personal development. However, scientific skeptics and academic psychologists have criticized the indicator in research literature, claiming that it "lacks convincing validity data" [2] and could be an example of the Forer effect.[3][4].
The registered trademark rights in the phrase and its abbreviation have been assigned from the publisher of the test, Consulting Psychologists Press Inc., to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Trust.[5]
