Middle Managers and 2nd rate psych students. But, having surveyed my undergraduate classes in the past, about 50% of them believe in astrology so it's no wonder the Myers-Briggs speaks to them.
Isn't it meant to be a categorical insight?
I was always under the impression it's obviously non-scientific and simply there to explain the broad aspects of a personality to others quickly.
Maybe that's the real personality test. Exposing how prone someone is to tribalism over self-reflection based on "I am a..." vs "My outcome was..."
I've had 3 dramatically different outcomes depending on the context in which I take it.
I believe it clearly says that's a totally acceptable outcome at the start and explains why that's expected and fine.
That it do. Albeit not loud enough.
I mean, some people like BuzzFeed quizzes, but it's easy to tell that it's for entertainment, knowing they're not scientific. When it's an documented personality test with a long history, it's easy to assume it's scientific. But social sciences weren't all that scientific until the last few decades, anyway.
interestingly, anedoctaly, I'm an absolute skeptic about almost everything, including astrology, religion and the such, but this test was so on spot from me I had a real hard time being convinced it was pseudoscience
My Psych degree hangs framed above my toilet. It really brings the room together. I only put partial weight into standardized testing, IQ or personality tests, and I hope other people realize the constraints and fallabilities of these metrics. I don't detest that they exist. I just hope people don't horoscope 'em.
Might vary from school to school. The bigger thing is upbringing, many first gen kids don't have that going into college so it's more a task to teach critical thinking to them. More privileged kids get that out the gate, especially if they're coming from private schools that encourage critical thinking and not following orders / memorization.
I teach at a place with mostly first gens, so thats how it is.
