By Sigurd Arild and Eva Gregersen In a quote that is popularly misattributed to Joseph Goebbels, it is said that “if you repeat a lie often enough, it eventually becomes the truth.” Since Adam Grant kicked off his sensationalist critique of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) last year, there has been no shortage of uninformed...

By Sigurd Arild, Ryan Smith, and Eva Gregersen Regular readers know the drill by now: We have no affiliation with the MBTI; we just don’t like seeing lazy and uninformed critiques misguiding the public. The latest example of such a critique is the journalist Joseph Stromberg’s article: Why the Myers-Briggs test is totally meaningless, as featured in...

By Ryan Smith and Eva Gregersen Business Insider seems to be developing a penchant for publishing poorly researched articles about the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Last September it was Professor Adam Grant’s critique of the MBTI which quoted unfaithfully from one of the scientific studies that it used as the basis of its argument. Now it is reporter Drake Baer who...

By Ryan Smith, Eva Gregersen, and Sigurd Arild A number of common critiques of Jungian typology and the MBTI are often voiced in no uncertain terms by people who have comparatively little knowledge about these fields. In this article we purport to answer the most common of these critiques. CRITICISMS OF THE MBTI THAT ARE...

SUMMARY OF THIS ARTICLE Adam Grant calls the MBTI “useless” but can’t cite a single study to back up his claim. Grant faults the MBTI for not being able to evaluate job performance. But the MBTI doesn’t claim to be able to do that. So Grant is ignorant of what the MBTI does and doesn’t...

Adam Conover has made a video that supposedly shows that the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is, quote, “total BS.” The video makes the argument that the theory of Psychological Types should be discounted because it’s not scientific. But the main debunking move of the video is that the theory can’t be right because Myers and Briggs didn’t...

By Boye Akinwande, with additions by Eva Gregersen As I’m sure may currently be the case for many of you, I was quite skeptical of CelebrityTypes’ type assessment of Kanye West as an ISFJ when I first came across it. At the time of this writing, there appears to be no “default” assessment of West’s type,...

By Ryan Smith In preparation for our own piece on why Jung is INFJ, we will recap some of the previous discussions of his type. This article will review the assessments offered in major books and articles between 2000 and 2012. Ann Casement (2001): Carl Gustav Jung In her general introduction to Jung and his work,...

By Eva Gregersen, Ryan Smith, and Sigurd Arild Since some criticisms have been leveled at our use of functions and the model we employ, some discussion of the use of functions may be in order. Criticisms of Functions and Function Models That Are Discussed in This Article: 1. The Standard Model is of dubious scholarly...

In this article, two of the site administrators explain their current reasons for why they think Woodrow Wilson is an ISTJ. Of the three articles on Woodrow Wilson’s type provided by this site, only the present article can be taken to represent the official views and type assessments of the site.  By Ryan Smith and Eva Gregersen...

By Ryan Smith and Rachel Wood The Thinking and Feeling functions are both “rational,” in the sense that they are driven to come to conclusions about psychic contents. Unlike the perceiving functions, Sensation and Intuition, where the focus is rather on perceiving information, the Thinking and Feeling functions press home to arrive at rationalized conclusions about the world...

By Ryan Smith and Rachel Wood Internet debates have seen what one could refer to as ‘the rise of the blowhard’ – people who throw down the name of a fallacy as if it somehow ‘wins’ them the discussion. But the identification of fallacies, even when properly executed, can rarely be used to prove the...
