It's amazing how frequently I see this cited here.

This system and any associated tests are COMPLETE bullsh!t. It has no scientific basis whatsoever. Myers and Briggs were a mother/daughter pair who had no scientific education of any type and were only known for...writing murder mysteries. They found a paper from influential psychologist Carl Jung that divided people into 8 personality types, except Jung himself even wrote that this was NOT a scientific analysis and just his own personal musings...despite that they decided to expand on it and doubled the categories to 16, trying to fit everyone they knew in those 16 categories...and somehow it was picked up.

It's basically the 40s equivalent of a Buzzfeed quiz. It has ZERO scientific merit.
