About

The MBTI® Personality Assessment was developed by Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother, Katharine Cook Briggs based on the work of the famous psychologist Dr. Carl Jung and his book Psychological Types. There are 16 personality types in total and the MBTI® Personality Assessment has been taken by millions of people and utilized by many companies and government agencies all across the world since 1962. The Official MBTI® website is: www.themyersbriggs.com

In short, you have natural preferences for how you gain energy, gather information, make decisions, and live life. The MBTI® categories for those preferences are as follows:

There are 4 categories with 2 preferences in each:

Extravertion (E) or Introvertion (I)
Intuition (N) or Sensing (S)
Thinking (T) or Feeling (F)
Judging (J) or Perceiving (P)

Once you take the test you are assigned a 4 letter acronym of the 4 categories (1 from each category) mentioned above called a personality type. The test sorts for preferences and does not measure trait, ability, or character. All types are equal. 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.

We at Just My Type recognized that certain personality types are compatible with other personality types, so we decided to create this app and our own test (coming soon) to allow you to find out your personality type and meet someone you ACTUALLY get along with!
