How to Determine Your MBTI Personality Type

colourfulheartbeat

Determining your MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) personality type involves understanding your preferences across four dichotomies:

  1. Extraversion (E) vs. Introversion (I):
    • Extraversion (E) involves being more outgoing, enjoying social interactions, and gaining energy from being around others.
    • Introversion (I) involves being more reserved, preferring solitude or small-group interactions, and gaining energy from time spent alone.
  2. Sensing (S) vs. Intuition (N):
    • Sensing (S) involves focusing on concrete information, facts, and details, and being more practical and realistic.
    • Intuition (N) involves focusing on patterns, possibilities, and potential outcomes, and being more imaginative and future-oriented.
  3. Thinking (T) vs. Feeling (F):
    • Thinking (T) involves making decisions based on logic, objective analysis, and principles, prioritizing fairness and consistency.
    • Feeling (F) involves making decisions based on personal values, emotions, and empathy, prioritizing harmony and compassion.
  4. Judging (J) vs. Perceiving (P):
    • Judging (J) involves preferring structure, organization, and planning, and feeling more comfortable with closure and decisiveness.
    • Perceiving (P) involves preferring flexibility, spontaneity, and adaptability, and feeling more comfortable with open-endedness and exploration.

To determine your MBTI type, you can take a formal assessment administered by a certified MBTI practitioner. However, you can also get a general sense of your type by reflecting on your natural preferences in each of these dichotomies. Consider how you typically behave, make decisions, interact with others, and approach tasks or challenges.

There are many free online MBTI tests available, but be aware that they may not be as accurate as those administered by professionals. Additionally, remember that the MBTI is just one tool for understanding personality and has its limitations. It’s important to use it as a framework for self-awareness and understanding, rather than as a definitive categorization of your personality.
