Meyers Briggs is great for bullshitting about EQ race <=> personality connections, but please don't take it any more seriously than that. From that same wiki page:



And that's the famous "neutral wikipedia" language there; they quote an expert shortly thereafter:



There's a lot more detail of the criticism if you care, but the point being people who take this stuff seriously, PhDs who've devoted their lives to understanding human psychology, almost universally agree Meyers-Briggs is (at least mostly) garbage.

And yet all the management classes I am forced to take each have their own stupid personality test you have to take that somehow tells you exactly what kind of person you are with a 20 question survey. They are basically as valid as a horoscope.

Man I hate those classes.
