Peter: I think that Myers-Briggs is mildly useful if used in a constructive way; for instance, to try to understand how team-members might be better able to work together. That said, lots of people get incredibly exercised by its very existence for reasons I don't understand. At any rate, this was not a 'serious' test in that in only had 50 questions. This is why I said 'a bit of fun'.
Sally - good question, I don't really know the answer!
Myers-Briggs is not just a bit of fun. But I suppose it was inevitable that a presumably pirated version of the test would appear on the Internet.
ReplyDeletethere are scores of these tests on the internet, some really good, others not so much.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why we are so fascinated by them.
btw my true Myers Briggs type is INFP- and that is what this "quiz" also indicated!
