J/P (Judging/Perceiving): like to have matters settled vs. T/F (Thinking/Feeling): decide based on objective logic vs. S/N (Sensing/Intuition): gathering information as concrete data vs. When the four scales are combined, 16 different four-letter personality types emerge.Į/I (Extraversion/Introversion): action-oriented vs. Its 126 forced-choice questions attempt to classify a person’s innate preferences according to T/F and three other dichotomies: extraversion/introversion (E/I), sensing/intuition (S/N), and judging/perceiving (J/P).
Developed by two American women, Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother, Katharine Briggs, during the 1940s and ’50s and first published in 1962, the Myers-Briggs test is now taken by more than a million people per year worldwide. T/F is one of four dichotomies that make up the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, the popular personality test based on the theories of Carl Jung. It suggests whether you depend primarily on detached thinking (“T”) or empathic feeling (“F”) when making decisions. Your response reveals more than your attitude to youth sports, Gaarder says. Robert Gaarder, a leadership coach and consultant on organization development, has heard dozens of answers to this question over the years, including “Send the best players,” “Have them draw straws,” “Send the kids who’ve been playing on the team the longest” (this reporter’s), and even “Send them all-I’ll pay the airfare out of my own pocket, because it’s just not fair otherwise.” There is enough money to send some team members to the playoffs, but not all of them. The team has a great season and makes it to the championship playoffs, held in a town a plane ride away.
Imagine that you are the coach of a kids’ sports team.
