The Myers-Briggs typology is a system for diagnosing individual differences that arose on the basis of Jung's ideas, and has received
powerful development over the past decades in different countries of Europe and the USA. Carl Jung in the book "Psychological Types",
published in 1921, suggested that there are four basic psychological functions that help a person perceive the world: thinking, feelings,
intuition, sensations.
The MBTI typology, or Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) appeared during the Second World War. Psychologists (two American women —
Catherine Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs-Myers) wanted to determine the personal preferences of women in order to replace men
who went to the front in production. Later it turned out that this test can be equally applicable to men. The researchers refined
and expanded Jung's theory. As a result, they got 16 psychotypes compiled on the basis of 4 scales for personality research:
1) EI scale: energy type (extrovert (E) — introvert (I));
2) SN scale: type of thinking (sensorik (S) - intuit (N));
3) TF scale: behavior style (logic (T) - ethics (F));
4) JP scale: lifestyle (rational (J) - irrational (P)).
The questionnaire, based on a combination of 8 personality types (E, I, S, N, T, F, J, P), will help determine the most suitable
profession for you from the following: chef ESTJ, system administrator ISTJ, military officer ESTP, policeman ISTP, nurse ESFJ,
kindergarten teacher ISFJ, bartender ESFP, jeweler ISFP, doctor ENTJ, microbiologist INTJ, correspondent journalist ENTP, teacher
at universities INTP, priest ENFJ, veterinarian INFJ, landscape architect ENFP, professional artist INFP.
This questionnaire will also help you understand how you usually look at things and what you do when you need to make a decision.
Knowing your preferences and learning about the preferences of other people, you can identify your strengths, understand what kind
of work gives you pleasure, and how people with different preferences can interact with each other and benefit society.
The questionnaire can also help in conducting business negotiations (as a working tool for tracking the characteristics of different
people and selecting the "key" to them); it helps to distribute tasks more efficiently among employees and establish optimal
relationships with work colleagues, allows you to use your own strengths more fully, reveals the "hidden mechanisms" of human
actions and decisions.
The questionnaire allows you to determine the propensity of a person to a certain type of activity; to identify the style of a
person's actions; to find out the nature of the decisions he makes.
The questionnaire consists of 94 questions. There are no "right" or "wrong" answers to these questions. Your answer should match
as closely as possible what you usually feel or do.
