What it measures:
The MBTI ® instrument describes an individual's preferences on four dimensions. The person either has a preference for:
|

Introverted
Prefers to draw energy from the inner world of reflections, feelings and ideas |
|
Sensing

or |
Intuitive
Prefers to focus on patterns, connections and possible meanings |
|
Thinking

or |
Feeling

|
Judging

or |
Perceiving

The various combinations of these preferences result in 16 personality ' types ' , each associated with a unique set of behavioural characteristics and values, which provide a useful starting point for individual feedback, self-exploration or group discussion.
