This is an enhanced Myers-Briggs test using the best questions from the most popular versions out
there: Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Keirseyan Temperament Sorters I and II and a few others.
"Best" questions were determined by how well they referenced real life situations, and asked for "most
likely" answers rather than "absolute" answers, as most people are not absolute or just "one way all the
time" in their life styles. Questions too similar to each other were also eliminated, although some were
kept as in the original tests since they do serve to test a subject's consistency in his/her answers.
This test also improved on some of the questions chosen by improving readability of the questions and
not allowing ties.
Improved readability was achieved by using simpler language. This meant simpler words, fewer idioms
or expressions with metaphors and cultural references and bias, and removal of words or idioms with
positive or negative connotations. Where any such words or idioms were left for their value, alternative
words accompany them to help with readability. The test came in at a lower grade reading level so
those for whom English is a foreign language, or those with low literacy levels, should be able to
understand the questions and answers better. This will allow more people to do the test and do it more
accurately. Extreme care was taken not to alter meanings of the original questions and answer choices,
unless to make the meaning clearer.
Most versions of the Myers-Briggs tests allowed for "ties" on the results among the Preferences (letter
codes). However, nobody is absolutely straight down the middle and it just confuses the outcome. As a
result, this test has an odd number of questions for each Preference so no ties can result.
The handful of extra questions added cannot skew the results to any appreciable amount.
