• Is the Myers Briggs test accurate?

  • Sources:

    The accuracy of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) has been called into question due to its reliance on categories that some experts argue are created by individuals lacking scientific credentials. Jordan Harbinger and Michael Regilio discuss its widespread use, noting that while the test assigns people a four-letter label based on their scores in different categories (extroversion, introversion, sensing, intuition, thinking, feeling, judging, perceiving), these traits fluctuate depending on circumstances. They emphasize that it attempts to simplify the complexities of human personality into rigid categories, which may not be scientifically robust 1 .
