What does the TypeFinder for Individuals measure?
The TypeFinder assesses the four preference pairs developed by Isabel Briggs Myers, via independently validated scales based on research conducted with a diverse global sample. These preference pairs reference key components of thought and behavior and provide insight into many aspects of work style.
• Extraversion vs. Introversion. This measure of energy style describes whether a person is energized by the outside world of activity and other people, or the internal world of thought and feeling.
• Sensing vs. Intuition. This measure of cognitive style describes whether a person focuses on facts and details, or theory and big-picture understanding.
• Thinking vs. Feeling. This measure of values style describes whether a person prioritizes concerns of logic and rationality, or person-centered concerns like empathy and harmony.
• Judging vs. Perceiving. This measure of task management style describes whether a person tends to be more structured and planned, or spontaneous and flexible.
In addition, the TypeFinder for Individuals measures 23 more detailed traits that help bring a more complex understand of a person's distinct style in thinking, behaving, and relating to others. These trait scores illuminate understanding beyond a simple 16-type description and bring nuance and depth to the results.
