Different personality types tend to have different learning styles, which in turn influence student performance in a variety of college courses. To measure the impact of learning styles on student performance in the introductory finance course, we administered an online Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test to students and then used regression analysis to measure the effects of different learning styles on course performance. We found several significant effects, which have implications for the teaching of introductory finance.  \nKeywords: Myers-Briggs; MBTI; Learning Styles; Introductory Finance  \nINTRODUCTION  \nC  \narl Jung’s 1921 Theory of Personality (DeLaszlo, 1959) described how individuals interpret and interact with the world, using three dichotomous “temperament” dimensions: Introversion/Extraversion, 1 Intuition/Sensation, and Thinking/Feeling. Myers and Briggs (Myers, 1995, 1998) added a fourth  \ndimension, Judging/Perceiving, and quantified all four with a personality test now commonly known as a MyersBriggs Type Indicator (MBTI). While other categorizations of learning styles exist, including the Gregorc (Gentry & Helgesen, 1999) and Kolb’s LSI (Fox & Bartholomae, 1999), many hundreds of papers have been published applying MBTI to almost every facet of modern life, including performance in various subjects in college. To familiarize the reader with the Myers-Briggs approach to personality, a compact description of each dichotomous MBTI dimension appears in Table 1, which is reproduced from Table 1 of Filbeck, Hatfield, and Horvath (2005) . Each personality dimension can be observed with any of the others, so that 16 (2x2x2x2) possible combinations of MBTI learning styles are possible. These combinations are normally referred to by the letters in Table 1: as an example, a Myers-Briggs ENTJ is an extraverted, intuitive, thinking, judger. In many cases, students’ learning styles, as measured by the four dimensions of the MBTI, have been shown to have significant effects on academic performance in a variety of courses. For example, a recent study by Ashraf et al. (2013) of finance majors showed that S students earned lower grades in a valuation of financial assets course than N students. Russo et al. (2013) also showed that N students outperformed S students in a managerial accounting course. In non-business disciplines, O’Brien et al. (1998) concluded that N types outperformed S types in an engineering course. Cano (1999) reported higher academic performance for T compared to F students in agricultural science. Tharp (1992) concluded that in a human physiology class, I students received higher grades than E students, and that S students earned the highest grades. Felder and Brent (2005) documented superior performance in chemical engineering for J students over Ps , as did Dirienzo et al. (2010) for Business majors. In this paper, we will demonstrate the significant effects that MBTI learning styles have on student performance in an introductory finance class at a large state university.  \n1 We follow Jung and Myers in writing “extravert” rather than the more common “extrovert.”  \nCopyright by author(s); CC-BY 183 The Clute Institute  \nTable 1: Personality Dimensions Measured by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator  \n\n| Extraversion (E) ---Individuals focus attention on the outer world of people and things.
