We all know that pursuing higher education, gaining on-the-job experience, and demonstrating leadership skills can boost our paychecks. But did you know that how much you earn may also depend on your personality type?  \nMultiple studies have demonstrated a link between income and personality traits such as extraversion, goal orientation, and the willingness to put one’s own interests ahead of the interests of others. In this report, we will outline the results of our research on income and personality type, as described by the theories of Isabel Myers and Katharine Briggs. Although Myers and Briggs’ theory is not widely used in academic research, it is the personality theory most familiar to the general population, and so allows us to describe the associations between personality and earning potential in a way that is easily understood.  \nFor those unfamiliar with the theory, Myers and Briggs proposed four major dimensions of personality, each of which is described in terms of two ends of a spectrum:  \n• Extraversion vs. Introversion describes how a person gains and manages their energy: through interacting with others, or by being solitary and quiet.  \n• Sensing vs. Intuition describes how a person processes information: with a concrete and matter-of-fact style, or through imagination and inference.  \n• Thinking vs. Feeling describes how a person makes decisions: based on logic, or based on moral and personal concerns .  \n•Judging vs. Perceiving describes how a person organizes their life: in a structured, orderly manner, or a looser, more spontaneous manner.  \nA person’s scores on each dimension are combined to create 16 distinct personality types, each coded by the initials ofthe four preferences. Thus, a person who prefers Introversion, Intuition, Feeling, and Judging would be called an INFJ.  \nThanks to previous research investigating similar personality factors, we can expect that Myers and Briggs’ four dimensions of personality will have a clear impact on income. For instance, academic research has shown that higher earners tend to be more focused on longterm goals, a trait that Myers and Briggs would classify as part of a Judging preference. In  \nWWW .
