Introduction to MBTI:

——MBTI, the most popular professional personality assessment tool in the world, is a compulsory and self-reported personality assessment test, which is used to measure and describe people's psychological activities and personality types in obtaining information, making decisions and treating life.

Philosophers from ancient Greece and India, as far away as Hippocrates in 450 BC and Pala Celsus in the Middle Ages, have long noticed that all people can be divided into four categories: conceptualized people, empiricists, idealists and traditionalists. There are striking similarities in the temperament of people of the same type.

192 1 year, psychologist carl jung, an authentic disciple of Freud, published his classic Psychological type theory. In his book, he designed a set of personality difference theory, which he thought would determine and limit a person's judgment at the same time. He divided this difference into introversion/extroversion, intuition/sensibility and thinking/feeling. At the same time, he believes that these differences are innate and relatively fixed in a person's life.

Jung listed perception and judgment as two basic functions of the brain. The former helps us to obtain information from the outside world, while the latter enables us to make decisions in a specific way. Their role in brain activities is controlled by people's lifestyle and energy sources, and they have different influences on people's external behaviors and attitudes. It is in this sense that personality is considered to be the innate nature of human beings.

In the 1940s, an American mother and daughter put forward a personality test model based on Jung's psychological typology theory. Isabel Myers and Catherine Briggs named this theoretical model after them, and called it Myers-Briggs indicator MBTI. Myers-Briggs indicator (MBTI): As a judgment and analysis of personality, it is a theoretical model. Four key elements-motivation, information collection, decision-making mode and lifestyle-are summarized and refined from the complicated personality characteristics, and analyzed and judged, so as to distinguish people with different personalities. The significance of MBTI personality classification model and theory lies in "explaining the differences between people" and optimizing decision-making and "reasonable intervention" decision-making process.

Psychologist David Chersi found that these four different temperaments were independently studied by people from different cultural backgrounds and different historical periods, and their descriptions of personality were strikingly similar. At the same time, he found that the combination of four personality tendencies in MBTI personality type system coincides with the four temperament summarized by ancient wisdom. These four combinations are:

Intuition (N)+ Thinking (T)= Conceptualist

Touch (S)+ perception (P)= empiricist.

Intuition (N)+ emotion (F)= idealist

Touch+judgment = traditionalist

Psychologists Briggs and Myers further developed carl jung's theory of eight personality types, and put forward Myers-Briggs personality classification, which divided individual measurement into 16 personality types, referred to as MBTI.

There are four dimensions in MBTI-extroversion (E, abbreviation, the same below) and introversion (I), true feeling (S) and intuition (N), emotion (F) and thinking (T), judgment (J) and perception (P). These subdivision dimensions can be combined like building blocks, in which the combination of four subdivision dimensions is called "personality type", and MBTI*** contains 16 different personality types.

Four-dimensional pairwise combination, there are sixteen kinds of * * *. Types are represented by letters in each dimension, as follows:

ESFP、ISFP、ENFJ、ENFP

ESTP、ISTP、INFJ、INFP

ESFJ、ISFJ、ENTP、INTP

ESTJ、ISTJ、ENTJ、INTJ

What does MBTI's fire bring us?

1, looking for belonging, young people like to label themselves.

MBTI personality test can be explained and studied from the perspective of identity. According to allport's theory of self-development, individual's self-knowledge goes through three stages: physical self, social self and psychological self.

The formation of social self and psychological self is realized in the social norms set by the media and interpersonal communication with others. In information dissemination and social communication, individuals constantly improve their sense of identity.

In essence, the act of "labeling" is to gain "identity" and "group belonging". As a gregarious animal, people's pursuit of "group belonging" has even surpassed background experience and rational logical judgment. This is something rooted in people's subconscious. Even the most independent people want to find a group to chat with and pursue a kind of.

Another kind of people who are keen to live in groups will actively seek to live in groups in various ways. From the original constellations to MBTI, there are even various strange theories, which are their way of broadcasting themselves and seeking identity.

Heidegger said, "We are essentially part of the same body. It is in the same body that we learn how to be an individual." As a kind of social existence, human beings usually put themselves in a specific group in order to gain some connection with others and confirm their identity through this connection.

The persistence of astrology and fortune telling shows how eager we are to be understood. When someone can tell me information that fits my own situation (even in general terms), I am reprinted.

2. New development, identity differentiation under the Internet.

With the rapid transmission of information in the Internet age, the frequency and speed of group gathering and dispersion have been greatly enhanced, and the subject, foundation and motivation of identity have changed greatly, resulting in corresponding differentiation and conflict.

The identity of traditional social members is stable and restrictive, and individuals are limited by their groups and social environment, so their personal identity is relatively stable. However, in the Internet age, due to the virtual nature of the network, people can selectively "perform" in cyberspace. Personal identity is virtual and constructive, and the identity of social members is dynamic and infinite.

At the same time, time and space are also closely related to identity. At present, we are in what Manuel Caster, an American scholar, called "flowing space". Society is mobile, mobile, and members of society have less and less time to identify with it.

Compared with the traditional negative and belonging identity, the identity in the network society is positive and constructive. When positive social identity increases, self and group identity will have more dimensions, and social identity will be more decentralized.

According to the philosopher Gemont Bowman, the reliable symbol of group identity is gradually replaced by fluidity, instability and individualism. In the past, people used to label themselves with religion, family and enterprises. Now people don't need to be attached to groups, but demand more subdivision.

Empty nesters, Buddhists, frustrated youths, etc. It's all a fad, and young people need to find a fashionable word to package themselves. People even define themselves by "what car to drive, what clothes to wear, what perfume to wear and what music to listen to".

Specifically, people's images on social networks are sometimes even 108,000 miles away from their actual characters, but as the philosopher william james thought, "A person has as many social selves as he has in the eyes of people who know him." For those who can never see his true face, those who are labeled are himself.

For example, in the setting of MBTI, people will change their personality according to different needs and environments, and even change their personality types several times a month. This transformation has the characteristics of virtuality and artificial construction, and is actually an artificial "performance".

3. Personality stratification conflicts, and the uniqueness of individual personality is submerged.

However, when MBTI becomes a circle label, different personality types become an important source of people's sense of superiority.

The rare personality conforming to commercial times's law has become the top of the circle, while the huge emotional personality such as INFP and ISFJ has to retreat to the bottom of the circle. The personality test, which should give people a more equal view of complex human nature, has become an artificial stereotype, making it increasingly difficult to break the social circle.

Naturally, the division of circles is not completely useless. It brings simpler communication methods and language styles, such as talking about food and life when discussing with S-type personality, and talking about life and philosophy when meeting N-type personality. However, seemingly simple, behind it is an inert expression aphasia.

People are afraid to speak, afraid that no one will listen, and afraid that the mask of disguise will be seen through. Therefore, it is better to hide under the general personality type and cover up all true thoughts and emotions.

The compartmentalization of personality makes the uniqueness of individual personality submerged, and communication and expression no longer need thinking, as if everything is a template and routine. Paradoxically, even if MBTI can help us create an idealized character, when all the personalities of individuals are standardized, "personality" will disappear, because anyone can create the character you want.

At present, under the background of media mobility and socialization, the frequency and speed of group gathering and dispersion are greatly enhanced, and it is increasingly prominent that young people need to spy from the outside to the inside through personality tests such as MBTI.

As a new round of social currency, MBTI is essentially a fast and labeled classification, from which we can spy out the identity construction of emerging human beings in social communication.

However, we should understand that MBTI, as an unscientific and imprecise personality test method, is essentially the same as constellation theory. When we expect or label people with certain personality types, they will become stereotypes.
