I took the Humanmetrics Jung Typology Test. This test is based on Carl Jung’s and Isabel Briggs Myers’ typological method to assist in understanding personality type. What a person receives from this test is a 4 letter formula which helps them learn about their personality type. The test also helps them understand what career or occupation they might be interested in and what jobs would use their personality traits. I was surprised at my results and it helped me understand myself a little better. I am classified as an INFP (Introverted Intuitive Feeling and Perceiving). INFP’s tends to look at the world with rose colored glasses. They see the good in everyone. They think more with their heart rather than with their head. They have a sense of wonder and a good imagination. Sometimes the imagination can become too real to them and they suffer great disappointment when they find out it is not real. They sometimes reflect on problems for so long that they take action too late to do anything to help. Introverts usually prefer to work alone or with a few close friends. They are usually considered to be reserved or shy. Introverts tend to reflect on decisions instead of just jumping into a situation. Intuitive tend to look at the big picture then look at the facts. They are not hands on they would rather think through a problem and reflect on new possibilities. They look at new ways to do things even though they don’t know how they will initiate the new ideas. I am about one percent more intuitive than sensing so I tend to go between the two personality traits. I do believe I have the gift of interpreting technical information into laymen terms, which is the intuitive personality trait.

Adler’s theory gives us much insight into birth order of children and adults and helps in developing the treatments that are needed to help them grow as individuals.

As an Introverts my attitude is more withdrawn. I tend to feed off of my inward thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. As an “I” in my personal life, I tend to hold my disappoint and anger towards others instead of sharing my feelings with that person. Conflict is a zone that I try to steer clear of.
After taking the Meyers-Briggs Personality Test, I determined my Jung Typology was ISTJ (introvert sensing thinking judging) by taking the Jung Typology Test (2016). Based on the test, I had a moderate preference for all of these, except sensing, which I only had a slight preference for sensing over intuition. Research was conducted using the website www.personalitypage.com and Type Talk at Work textbook to evaluate the accuracy of the personality type in the test. Based on the research and my personal evaluation, the test accurately captured my personality. From the research I learned specifics about my qualities and preferences which will help me better perform as an employee, co-worker, and manager.
Even so, communication with people of the sensory/thinking (ST) personality types would require my adhering to realities and effects. In like manner, communication with those of intuitive/feeling (NF) personality traits, would necessitate me to direct intercommunication on relevant theories, ideas, or concepts. Fortunately, the intuitive aspects of NTs and NFs along with the thinking features of the NTs and STs provide for mutually effective business or academia intercommunication. Therefore, whether for teamwork projects in business or collaborating assignments in academia, I would deftly work well with these two personality
Personality is defined as a combination of characteristics or qualities that make up an individual’s character. There are tests that can help one decode their personality and understand their quality of what it means to be a person. The Myers-Brigg Type Indicator and the Big Five or Five Factor Model ate such tools. The Myers-Brigg Type Indicator is a psychological self-assessment which provides some insight to the takers personality. Although it can be a tool used for career planning and leadership development, the Myers-Brigg Type Indicator is better classified as a personality test that depending on the results of the assessment can help one with their decision making skills, build stronger relationships, and
The Personality Test was taken from (Grivas, et al., 1996). As it contained appropriate questions to test the Personality Types A and
The Myers-Briggs profile was based on the test developed by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter, Isabel Briggs Myers (“The History of the MTBI assessment”, 2017). There are eight letters that can make up your profile E, N, F, P, I, S, T, and J. “E” stands for extrovert, meaning someone outgoing or social. “N” stands for intuitive, meaning the person goes off of their reasoning or feelings about something. “F” is for feelings, which represent an emotional state or belief about something. “P” is the symbol for perceiving, which means the way you process or take in a certain situation. “I” is for introvert, someone who keeps to themselves. “S” is for sensing, meaning you use common sense. “T” is for thinking, meaning you use your intellect. Finally, “J” is judging, which is making a
By being an INTP, I have interpreted why some things work in my favor. Being a perceiver allows me to embrace change while keeping any ill-thoughts (regarding changes I do not agree with) to myself. This personality blend, also, allows me to participate in group settings when brainstorming is needed, and having a lower preference in introversion grants me just enough patience to play along with the extroverts to complete the task. When putting two letters together, I have better understood my temperament. “Temperament arises from the regulation of arousal and emotion reliably producing characteristic, habitual responses to experience”, and mine is Intuitive Thinking (NT), so I create many options in my head (Blandin, K., February 2013, para. 4). On the other hand, my personality leads me to situations where I make irrational decisions because I’m not granted enough time to think everything through. As viewed in the presentation, “Lesson 1-Worldview perspective on organizational behavior”, understanding my personality typology, others’ typology, and organizational behavior will allow the workplace to be more efficient because we have a better understanding of ourselves and how we can work together. I’m now able to function in the team because I understand what I offer, how it is useful, and my obligation to the group (Fischer, K. slide
Thinking versus feeling is the next portion of the personality type. This letter covers how we make decisions. In the book Type Talk at Work, the authors explain that Thinkers tend to be more firm, just and analytical, whereas Feelers are more involved, subjective, and tend to be known for their caring nature
The Myers and Briggs Analysis is a series of questions that when answered are examined and grouped together in order to determine the personalities of those taking this test. This particular test can result in sixteen different outcomes or types of personalities, which is determined by four different categories that judge if you are introverted or extroverted, use your senses or your intuition, your choice to think or use your feelings, and finally if you are judgmental or perceptive. These series of questions are designed to judge our personalities and help us to determine which career pathways we will be most suited for based on our personality traits and abilities to work well with others, which is important for our future decisions.
The Jung Typology Test described me and my habits exactly. In addition, my reading and research has helped me realize there are no “good” or “bad” personality types just different ones with both strengths and weaknesses but they are all relative. While one may compliment others better than another, all are needed in order for the workplace to be successful.

According to Carl Jung’s typology theory each individual develops personal preferences which become the foundation for how they face life’s challenges and interact with others. Based on this knowledge Isabel Briggs Myers developed the Myers-Briggs Type indicator (MBTI). This test helps individuals identify and study their individual preference and those of others. After taking the Jung Typology Test, which is based on the MBTI, it was confirmed that my four dominate personality preferences are Introversion, iNtuition, Thinking and Judging. Each personality preference is discussed in detail including strengths and weaknesses. The combination of the four make me a INTJ of the world. This is also discussed in detail including strengths, weaknesses,
I am an intuitive-feeling personality. I am charismatic, participative and very people oriented. I tend to focus on the big picture and not the small specifics. I am not power hungry and try to be helpful and giving to those around me.
