Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is a popular instrument based on the Jungian theory of personality types.

Answer: B
 A projective test or measure of personality is a test that presents a subject with an ambiguous stimulus, such as an inkblot, and asks the subject to interpret it in order to reveal aspects of their personality. It is not the MBTI, which is a self-report questionnaire.

Answer: C and D
 Although the MBTI is based on Jungian theory, the person who combining preferences is Carl Jung. So, options C and D best describe it.

Answer: E
 Direct indices of personality are measures that directly assess personality traits, such as the Big Five personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism). The MBTI, while related to personality, is a self-report questionnaire that does not directly measure personality traits.

Answer: F
 The statement is related to the social-cognitive theory of personality, which suggests that behavior is a function of both the person and their environment. It is not directly related to the MBTI.
