What is MBTI?

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an introspective self-report questionnaire indicating differing psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions.

The 4 Dichotomies

  1. Extraversion (E) vs. Introversion (I): Where you focus your attention.
  2. Sensing (S) vs. Intuition (N): The way you take in information.
  3. Thinking (T) vs. Feeling (F): How you make decisions.
  4. Judging (J) vs. Perceiving (P): How you deal with the world.

Why use it?

Understanding your type can help you appreciate your own strengths and gifts, and understand and appreciate those of others.
