Al Azhar University of Indonesia, South Jakarta,  \nIndonesia.  \n*Corresponding Author e-mail: [zaqiah@uai.ac.id](zaqiah@uai.ac.id)  \nReceived: May 2024; Revised: May 2024; Published: June 2024  \nAbstract  \nAccording to studies, MBTI personality types exhibit different cognitive function preferences, where a strong inclination towards certain traits can influence how well individuals receive and process information. This is related to intelligence and problem-solving abilities, including the impact on foreign language learning. Understanding the role of personality traits in language learning can significantly enhance educational strategies. Despite growing interest in personalized education, the influence of personality on language acquisition remains underexplored, particularly for Arabic learners. Our research examines the impact of the MBTI personality dimensions of introversion and intuition on Arabic language performance as a second language among Indonesian students. We studied 53 college students majoring in Arabic language-related fields. Using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and an Arabic language proficiency test, we conducted data analysis through multiple linear regression, ensuring robustness with assumption tests for residual normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity. The results indicated that the introversion and intuition dimensions of the MBTI did not significantly affect Arabic language performance (F-test: Sig. 0.696 > 0.05 and t-test 0.411, 0.754 > 0.05) . These findings suggest that introversion and intuition may not be critical factors in Arabic L2 proficiency. This research provides insights for the development of Arabic language teaching programs, emphasizing that factors other than personality may play a more significant role in language performance. However, the complex relationship between personality and language learning warrants further investigation to fully understand the dynamics at play.  \nKeywords: Introversion; Intuition; Cognitive function; Language learning; Arabic language performance  \nHow to Cite: Ady, R.P. , & Mardiah, Z.

Previous studies have provided substantial evidence linking specific personality traits and cognitive functions to variations in language performance (Kaufman et al. , 1996; Wenke et al. , 2004) . Kaufman et al.'s examination of MBTI types in relation to intelligence, particularly the intuitive (N) dimension, demonstrated a compelling association between cognitive preferences and higher composite IQ scores. This finding underscores the connection between cognitive processing styles, as outlined by the MBTI, and the cognitive demands inherent in language tasks. Furthermore, Wenke et al.'s study on problem-solving and intelligence supports the idea that how people process information, as dete","cbCaifdoF0FKlYRY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifdoF0FKlYRY","pdf",470633,16,"English","# Introduction\n## Research framework: personality, cognitive preferences, and language learning\n# Background: MBTI and cognitive function theory\n## Jung’s cognitive functions and MBTI structure\n## MBTI dimensions and type formation\n# Abstract and study outcomes\n## Research purpose and methods\n## Results and implications","[{\"question\":\"What is the study’s main research question?\",\"answer\":\"The study examines whether the MBTI personality dimensions of introversion and intuition affect Arabic language performance as a second language among Indonesian students.\"},{\"question\":\"How were participants and data collected?\",\"answer\":\"Data were collected from 53 college students majoring in Arabic language-related fields using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and an Arabic language proficiency test.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the results indicate about introversion and intuition?\",\"answer\":\"Multiple linear regression results show that introversion and intuition did not significantly affect Arabic language performance, with reported significance values greater than 0.05.\"}]","Understanding Second Language Performance - The Significance of Personality Type Among Learners - Journal Article | PDF"]
