D. Rainer Alexandrovicz\u003Cbr>Pan European University Bratislava Alpen-Ad ria-University Klagenfurt\u003Cbr>Jutta Menschik-Bendele Paul Deakin\u003Cbr>Alpen-Ad ria-Universität Klagenfurt OPP Ltd. Okford, UK |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| ABSTRACT\u003Cbr>As previous studies had found moderate correlations between the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) instrument and the NEO-Five Factor Inventory (NEOFFI) , we expected the two instruments to measure related but distinct constructs. In N = 435 adult Austrians (255 female) , we tested three concurrent models by Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Four pairs of two factors , one from each measure , correlated clearly and uniquely with each other: MBTI Extraversion with NEO-FFI Extraversion , MBTI Judging–Perceiving with NEO-FFI Conscientiousness , MBTI Thinking–Feeling with NEOFFI Agreeableness , and MBTI Intuition–Sensing with NEO-FFI Openness to Experience. Unidimensional | models and models with two uncorrelated factors fitted significantly worse. Thus , as expected , MBTI and NEOFFI scales add information to each other.\u003Cbr>Note: For the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) instrument, the eight preference categories are the following: Extraversion (E) versus Introversion (I) , Sensing (S) versus Intuition (N) , Thinking (T) versus Feeling (F) , Judging (J) versus Perceiving (P) .\u003Cbr>INTRODUCTION\u003Cbr>On the basis of introspection , clinical experience , and philosophical considerations , Carl Jung (1921/1971) introduced his framework of basic “PsychologicalTypes”of personality: (1) Whereas Introverts (I) are guided by their inner focus , Extraverts (E) orient by their experiences in the outer world. (2) The Sensing (S) type perceives the world by his or her immediate sensory perceptions, |\n\nPublished by the Center for Applications of Psychological Type  \nISSN 1938-3290  \n2  \n\n| as opposed to the Intuitive (N) one , who is guided by more abstract meanings inherent to a situation and by the patterns that underlie observable data. (3) Whereas the Thinking (T) type chooses a logical , analytical approach to life , the Feeling (F) type is rather guided by empathy and his or her value orientations and ethical considerations. Isabel Briggs Myers and Katharine Cook Briggs (see the MBTI manuals: Myers , 1962; Myers & McCaulley, 1985; and Myers , McCaulley, Quenk , & Hammer, 1998/2003) developed the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment , a self-report assessment which introduced a fourth pair of opposites , namely |  | characteristics in psychologically healthy individuals; second , that its results possess a high degree of face validity (i.e. , most participants tend to recognize themselves in MBTI results); and finally, that its outcome adopts a nonjudgmental perspective , in the sense that no possible results can be viewed as more or less desirable. In spite of some psychometric criticism , especially with respect to the MBTI forced-choice response format (cf. , Vacha-Haase & Thompson , 2002 , for a summary) , its manifold successful applications point to the questionnaire’s practical diagnostic value , also implying its prognostic validity. With regard to incremental validity, |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Judging (J) vs. Perceiving (P) . Whereas the Judging type plans his or her life systematically and in a highly structured way, in contrast , the Perceiving type favors action on the spur of the moment and without too much scheduling, adapting to the requirements of the immediate situation spontaneously. The MBTI instrument assesses Extraversion vs. Introversion , Sensing vs. Intuition , Thinking vs. Feeling and Judging vs. Perceiving on four bipolar scales.\u003Cbr>Carl Jung wa","cbCaibtaj6PUu6rG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibtaj6PUu6rG","pdf",343499,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Psychological Types and MBTI basics\n## Comparing MBTI with NEO-FFI dimensions","[{\"question\":\"What is the main research question of the article?\",\"answer\":\"Whether the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator measures anything beyond what is captured by the NEO Five Factor Inventory, i.e., whether the constructs are related but distinct.\"},{\"question\":\"How many participants were included, and what was tested statistically?\",\"answer\":\"The study used N = 435 adult Austrians and tested three concurrent models using confirmatory factor analysis.\"},{\"question\":\"Which MBTI–NEO factor pairs showed clear and unique correlations?\",\"answer\":\"MBTI Extraversion matched NEO-FFI Extraversion; MBTI Judging–Perceiving aligned with NEO-FFI Conscientiousness; MBTI Thinking–Feeling related to NEO-FFI Agreeableness; and MBTI Intuition–Sensing corresponded to NEO-FFI Openness to Experience.\"}]","Journal of Psychological Type - Issue 1 2014 - Does the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Measure Anything Beyond the NEO Five Factor Inventory? | PDF",25]
