Key terms
- Personality. The unique combination of emotional, thought, and behavioral patterns that affect how a person reacts to situations and interacts with others.
- Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). A personality test that taps four characteristics and classifies people into one of 16 personality types. Every characteristic contributes one letter from the following pairs: Extraversion (E) or Intraversion (I) depending on onward or inward focus, Sensing (S) or Intuition (N) depending on preference in taking in information, Thinking (T) or Feeling (F) depending on preference in making decisions, Judging (J) or Perceiving (P) depending on preference in living outer life.
Script
- For a long time, psychologists have been approaching various ideas to match personalities and occupations. Logically, artists tend to be more disruptive personalities than accountants. Vice versa, accountants tend to be more conforming personalities than artists.
- No single personality framework fully describes a personality and no one can predict one's productivity at the workplace depending on the personality only. There might be no need. A successful sport team, for instance, should be a mosaic of personalities regardless of the fact that all of them would share the same occupation.
- The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) was originally developed to identify students' aptitudes toward various professions. Today, some employers collect MBTI data to match mentors and protégés.
- This personality test taps four characteristics and classifies people into one of 16 personality types.
- Every characteristic contributes one letter from the following pairs:
- Extraversion (E) or Intraversion (I) depending on onward or inward focus,
- Sensing (S) or Intuition (N) in acquiring information,
- Thinking (T) or Feeling (F) in making decisions,
- Judging (J) or Perceiving (P) in living outer life.
- For instance, ISFP would stand for a sensing, feeling, perceiving introvert.
- In another attempt, American psychologist John Holland matched two personality dimensions, disruptive versus conforming and individual versus collective, with six groups of occupations. Holland's groups are artistic, conventional, enterprising, investigative, realistic, and social.
- This model is called the Holland Occupational Themes. The Occupational Information Network utilizes this model in its Interests section.
Occupational Interests is the successor lectio.
