Personality tests have become increasingly popular over the years. Many different types have emerged, but the one that stands out as one of the most credible is the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). This formula presents 16 different types of basic personality types, with each type having a slightly different twist on its own.
Each personality type is coded with four letters. E (extraversion) or I (introversion) — how one is energized; S (sensing) or N (intuition) — how one takes in and processes information; T (thinking/logic) or F (feeling) — how one makes decisions; and P (perceiving) or J (judging) – how one plans and organizes life.
No one person is strictly an extrovert or strictly a feeler, etc., but some combination. The letters only refer to which one is more dominant in a person’s personality. One of the great things about the MBTI is the way it gives the person taking the test a point scale for each letter. This is where a person’s unique attributes show up in a big way.
According to the Myers-Briggs website, “The goal of knowing about personality type is to understand and appreciate differences between people. As all types are equal, there is no best type.”
