I've found that my Big 5 results vary in extremes depending on whether or not I'm going through depression and how extreme that depression is. My MBTI type, however, remains pretty consistent despite those factors.

It's very interesting how MBTI is a very accurate indicator of our Temperamental Nature. While the Big Five is a very accurate Indicator of our Behavioral Nurture. The researchers over at 16Personalities are currently studying the correlations between the two, and making a more solid foundation of our understanding of Personality in general.

Since your comment talks about personal perspective: From my experience it is usually the opposite. My mbti result and those of people I know changes quite a bit, while the big five profiles remain fairly consistent.

[@mrtichar]

Different assessments measure different personality traits. The MBTI, the Big 5, GallupStrengths, the Enneagram, and The Holland Code provide a different view and insight of the individual. We are complex beings - we need more than one view. Therapists find various assessments extremely helpful for helping clients reach their goals; each providing insight to understanding their unique challenges and pain.

I don't get why people believe Big Five offends people, and that MBTI doesn't. I found my results of both equally triggering.

[@BLoodyEx]

I took both. Aaaand tbh: The MBTI gave me muuuch more clearance of who I am and what my strengths and weaknesses are, because it goes into soooo many details and uses so many everyday examples I can relate to 100 %, it was also structured into different areas like childhood, school, career, considering all age groups and struggles during each period etc, which helped A LOT. The Big Five on the other hand was kinda wishy washy, leaving me only with infos like "Okay I score above average on neuroticism" - but I couldn't connect any dots with it. So sorry Jordan, u r pretty wrong on this one. But imo this also depends heavily on how deep u dig into it. After the MBTI I took my time to study 2 or 3 books on my type and research various channels on it, comparing what I found to all my personal experiences. This took quite a lot of time. But it gave me a pretty clear picture of myself and how I am viewed in general.

@@exploremylocalarea946sorry have to disagree on this. If it’s horoscope reading yes this scripture aligns because how would someone be identified through mainly by birthdate that’s just nonsense. But mbti is a bunch of quiz u have to do to give u an accurate answer of your personality. Bible says my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. So we have to make sure we have enough knowledge on the subjects before giving a judgement or the judgement will be bias. Conclusion: there’s a big difference between knowing ur personality VS future prediction readings. Horoscope leads people to prediction reading which end up on witchcraft reading but mbti is just for u to know ur strength and weakness (Something like r u an extravert or introvert). Hope this give u a clear understanding on what’s going on.

Side note, I've consistently tested as INTP for atleast 15 years and it describes me to the core of my being. The big 5 comes out as interesting and wildly accurate but it doesn't have the same texture to it.

[@okwatever3582]

I think personality tests are a way to look at our personalities, however, it shouldn’t be the only way we understand personalities since there are lots of aspects of a person that a test can’t reflect. I was tested INTJ for the last 3 years. Though, a couple friends have had drastically different results in the last 3 years. So, lets not fall into the trap of only believing in the tests, however, believe your own feelings of something, for we all change as time goes on.

[@pearlydiamond]

Love the Meyers Briggs. It answered questions of problems I struggled within myself and didn't quite understand. I felt like someone just read my mind and understood the way I viewed the world. It was a mapway of the mind-my mind. Maps are golden. Everyone needs them. That's how impactful the MB has been to me. All types are valuable to society. You begin to appreciate all the different approaches. It's useful to understand the language of others, and just grow amongst your different peers. Life is less isolating when there is a community of people like you somewhere that speak and operate in the same language.

[@chaddabad]

I did the big 5 test, i was honest with my answers and people that are around me all the time agreed with some things but found other things to be highly innaccurate. However, when they read what an ENTP 8w7 is, they almost all agree that it matches me almost perfectly

[@Marcospaloss]

Big 5 is much more stable over time and predicts many things later on in life. The reason most people don't like the Big 5 and like the MBTI is because the MBTI does not go over potentially negative traits meaning it's easier to process your MBTI model than it is to face yout BIG 5 results

[@Cybersomnia]

​@@MarcospalossMBTI definitely goes over negative traits, they're inherent to the positive ones by contrast

[@BLoodyEx]

​@@Marcospaloss Ofc it goes over negative traits oO U just have to do ur research after the test for like half an hour and u'll uncover a shitton of ur weaknesses. It even goes into huge depth, deciphering different periods of ur life and struggles u'll face in each of them. I'm 100 % certain of this, done the MBTI 3 times in my life, since then I've also read 3 books on my type and researched a lot on Google and KZbin. Oh and I've also done the Big 5 twice in my life, which only left me with a shitty diagram, zeroooo background or specifically tailored information in here for me personally, so yeahhhh... But I totally get it, if u are one of those totally unselfaware, unreflected and simple-minded persons, and that's probably the majority of people... U do better with the Big5, sure. Sorry for the harsh statement, but I believe it's absolutely true, u need certain characteristics to even be able to think about urself that deeply. I could give u 40-50 examples where the MBTI relates to my personal life and experience 100 % and in pretty accurate detail. But I truly believe it's because of how self-reflected u are, I know a shitton of people that took it and couldn't figure out anything about themselves, really the majority. I'd really suggest doing both and researching both urself... Both could be helpful and human beings are complex, sooo Just some examples for my type, if u simply buy the book from 16personalities afterwards and read it and reflect on it: - ​Prospecting trait may push me toward too many diverse interests (absolutely true, could give u 30+ examples of the struggle, cannot focus well on one thing) - ​ When a subject at school comes easily to them, I may not apply myself to learning (absolutely true, always relied on my base intelligence and knowledge there) - I'm not bound by conventional rules and structure (absolutely true, always had problems with deadlines, homework, punctuality, never cared for, I lack discipline - also confirmed by low consc. at Big5) - May blame myself for not being smart enough/working hard enough (I know it's the laziness 100%) - My learning style doesn't fit the school mold (absolutely true, waaay too individual) - Aversion of risk (absolutely, waaay to much of a perfectionist) - Doesn't see a career as end-goal (absolutely, had huge struggle finding a path for myself, quit several jobs in different areas in my 20s) - Putting in minimal effort at university (absolutely true, still struggling with discipline, even though I like the field) - Needs a job with a purpose (absolutely, that's why I quit many), hates routine tasks / gets easily bored by monotone stuff - Gets confused when people disagree/are unkind at work (totally, sends me into negative feedback loops) - Bad at following orders (so true, had to reject military service after I entered) ....... I could go on and on and on. The Big5 didn't give me any of this, u only get "well u score low on conscientousness for example... well, duhhh?

He was interested in his own personal nature. It seems MBTI would be the tool Augustine would need.

[@jamiecobb7874]

Please, someone tell me what JP himself thinks is his MBTI!

[@SyvilMedia]

I think he’s right and wrong at the same time. One of them base your personality type from a bio-neurological perspective such as temperament, neurological attributes and the other goes off of your psychological development from being exposed to the environment. One of them can help you determine things like Neuroticism while the other focuses on the archetypal evolution of an individual. Which helps you compare yourself with others of that same type of mental condition other than what you may have inherited biologically from your parents. He may have said that and I just missed it but I did both and I like both. Only thing is Myers Briggs showed me the likelihood of falling into an archetypal category and the other basically showed me what is stopping me neurologically from expressing that type of mentality and things I need to work on to overcome certain issues. Being high an openness , creative and neurotic was something I already knew, so disciple and a schedule greatly benefits me, but then learning that my “Jack of all trades” type of life also greatly coincided with others that had my same myers briggs type and it was incredibly accurate. Which I often try to deny but I’m always proved wrong

[@justme8108]

I did the Big 5 before I did Myers Briggs, and the MB was spot on, but didn't define the personality to a pinpoint as well as the Big 5. I rely on them both, and have never found any other study/tests that were any good.

MBTI and socionics are fantastic for what they are for, which is understanding oneself and others in terms of diversity in perspective in the world as mentioned, but in terms of quantifying mental health level or qualification for work or relationships there is MUCH more to it, likely better covered by the big five etc.

[@punodelgato9001]

One thing I notice is people especially online, are quick to say "you're not an XXXX be7cauae you show a lot of Ti or Ne in this statement." That kind of statement sums up what's wrong with the test. If so many people are "mistyping" themselves, then is the test even reliable? And often times, people will say so and so isn't whatever type because it's over some kind of disagreement, followed by some ad hominem attack or further strawman fallacies. I find it funny that you'd be able to say someone isn't an INFJ for example, based on reading a few paragraphs or hearing a few things that they said, in such cases within a short timeframe. You administer something like the MMPI and that has a high degree of test-retest reliability. It even is put together in a way that allows the examiner to pick up on dishonest or inconsistent responses.

I did the Big 5 --twice, and came up with two different results. Both (as far as I am aware) are common types for INFP. I was either 9w1 or 4w5. I was informed that 9w1 often mistake themselves (or others mistake them) as 4w5, however I have read a summary of both 9w1 and 4w5 and I can relate to both. So I feel like I can be in a space between either 9w1 or 4w5 but not knowing if I am actually either. My external persona feels like a 9w1, however my internal persona is more 4w5. *shrug*

[@jayden8357]

Thats the Enneagram, not the Big 5. I would definitely recommend you to get into enneagram tritypes. For example, my tritype is 459, meaning that I share traits from both type 4 and type 5. That could also be the case for you. Your tritype could consist of both 4 and 9. In regards to whether your external or internal persona matters the most in this case, I would say your internal persona is the one you should go for. The enneagram is a tool that asseses your deepest fears, desires and coping mechanisms. It should be used to understand the underlying layer of who you are. Thats why your internal persona is more in alignment with your true enneagram type

Perhaps not having high conscientiousness, I'm biased, but I've noticed in my 40 years in different work and voluntary roles, that the high conscientious people were prone to being rather accepting of anything which came from someone with authority.

2:00 the 16-Personalities variant of the mbti addresses something "close to neuroticism" with a fifth hanging t/a attribute.

[@GetYossedLol]

Mbti defines your personality using universal metrics such as thinking, feeling, intuition and sensation. It tells you exactly how you work. Big 5 just measures you using arbitrary scales that were chosen based on what is relevant to the current context. The reason it tells everyone that they're good at something is because that is the universal truth. Everyone is good at something and bad at something else, what he often refers to as universally ineffective qualities are just ineffective relative to the current context. For example, not all personalities are built for capitalism. There are altruistic and very people focused personalities that would probably thrive in communism. They aren't "objectively" or "universally" inferior. They just don't fit into society, while some personalities are lucky to be born in a society that rewards them for being themselves. Mbti does not claim that we're all equal in a hierarchy or that there is no hierarchy. The qualities that thrive in the hierarchy are just decided by whichever personality is in the majority.

Does he make a profit off big 5?

[@Erick.RushXI]

This was dissapointing. Theres no way someone as bright at JP would recommend Big Five over Myers. I did both of them, and Found that the Big Five is just like Myers Briggs, But with less insight and a Fee. It feels like one of those Personality test you took on the internet during the school days lol

[@Duraz]

Does JBP know anything about cognitive functions or Psychology Types? Cognitive functions really only greatky differ from Jung in the sense that MBTI says we use all 4 functions instead of 1 or 2.

[@TheCookieNetwork]

He knows more than you that’s for sure!

[@Duraz]

@TheCookieNetwork on this topic specifically? No, he does not, lol, not even close. Idk who tf you are.

[@TheCookieNetwork]

@@Duraz tell us how you know more than Dr. Peterson. You’re also a psychology professor that went to Harvard?

[@Duraz]

@TheCookieNetwork Im talking about this very specific, niche topic, just because he is a professor of psychology doesn't mean he is familiar with every single psychological theory that exists, I am 100% more knowledgable on this one than him.

[@TheCookieNetwork]

@@Duraz So you are more knowledgeable than someone who is a professor of psychology and has done research on personality? That makes perfect sense!

[@thorburnjschwegler]

As an ISTP I see the Myers Brigg is like at least 80% accurate as a Baseline and I work from there because when I look deeper into it I keep on thinking to myself how is this so damn accurate but that's just me though others might have different experiences

Nonsense. Why would anyone get offended by mbti or big 5!? . As big 5 talks about agreeable -disagreable mbti talks about extroverts -introverts, big 5 openness - consciousness, mbti intuitive -senors, agreeable -disagreable in mbti are feeling - thinking. There is nothing better about big 5 it is just different. MBTi is more elaborate as far as I can find on internet. I heit that you talk about people being or not being offended by big 5 or MBTI. I don't dislike personally tests I dislike how J. Peterson is talking about them. Only thing I am offended is by him saying that I am offended by some tests!! 😡

Ah!! Inference!! Not actually the truth of the matter. Sociopaths do a lot of inferencing which dupes so many.

Isn’t sensing the same thing as intuition? I wish I knew what the difference was? When I sense something it’s from my intuition. ( I have not studied this in depth)

[@Shoopdawoop3486]

Sensing refers to your actial senses See, smell, Touch whereas Intuition refers to your inner world View and gut Feeling about an ideal or future.

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

I don’t mind big-5 (and apparently the real-deal test is a lot more certi. than the pop psychology on the Internet) but it’s a description of behavioural traits, not the deeper psychology of introversion and extroversion are about. I. and E. are Jungian-coined terms but the way he talked about them (attitude of cognitive functions) was closer to M.B.T.I., if a little less boxed and more heightened. MBTI is far from perfect but it does better conceptual justice to Jung than the watered-down, common understanding of extro/intro-version (which is all-in-all something quite different).

[@AI-ch3if]

The MBTI has a truly creepy origin story. Let's just say that Carl Jung did not use particularly scientific methods to gather his information. As a Christian, I would not recommend this test.

[@mikelheron20]

That's a recommendation as far as I'm concerned. When I find myself in agreement with Christians I start to worry.

[@baasiaaz]

Thanks. I think that people often times are cultivating narcissistic self-love with this Meyers Briggs test. And it's so far from objectivity. 🤔

[@sangmadewira4726]

When you get down to it, im pretty sure that Mbti is just what you think your personality is, And big 5 is what your personality seems like compared to others.

[@joshmcinnesart]

Mbti is such a cult.

[@Wizard_Sony]

MBTI is literally the same as big five Extroversion = Extroversion Intuition = Openness Feeling = Agreeableness Perceiving = Conscientousness Turbulent = Neuroticism

[@Marcospaloss]

I don't think you are understanding the differences. The MBTI is Binary while the Big 5 is continumm. With MBTI you get Extraversion-Introversion, Sensing-Intuition, Thinking-Feeling, and Judging-Perceiving All which are good, not useful to understand who you really are, it also does not measure negative emotionallity. The MBTI gives you specific set of letter for you to identify with, that's not how humans work, we are a spectrum. And lastly, If you think of a way to validate both of those tests, you would come up with experiments, like testing an open person (Intuition) in some sort of creativity test you would see that people do better than others and they are not simply a letter and also you would see which of the two is more valid. Thousands of those experiments have been conducted and the MBTI pales in comparisson with the Five factor model which is how you would find it in google Scholar if you want to validate what i'm saying with research.

[@termitesc.aardwolf3644]

As an INTP who is high in conscientiousness, I beg to disagree.

[@OneManArmy144]

Well, he clearly doesn't understand Jung. Jungian personality types are for one purpose: individuation (maturity) of the personality. They are not discernments to profit or guess who's more well suited to rot in an office cubicle. Jung did spoke about neuroticism, he called it to some degree "neurosis". Neuroticism dissolves as the personality matures, you can clearly see that children are far more neurotic than adults. A neurotic adult (according to Jung) suffers from inner disagreements and is suppressing parts of his psyche in a unjustifiable and unskillfull way. The assimilation of psychic contents makes the personality whole, with less tension and far less inner disagreement. The big 5 is useful for the herd animals, while Jungian discernment is for animals who want to become individuals.

Wrong. Neuroticism = big part genetics. The Brain works observable different. You will find Kids with low and high neuroticism. Neuroscience matters

[@OneManArmy144]

@@VashS. Wrong, it can be fully surpassed, hence not a personality trait. The nervous system can be fully matured through meditation, they've literally scanned the brains of monks. Sam Harris is a neuroscientists who advocates buddhism mainly because it objectively makes your brain less attached to small problems and negative emotions, hence maturing and literally changing your life, mainly by not identifying with small or big nervous overloads, it literally restructures your brain to fully overcome what we call neuroticism. Neuroscience matters.

@@OneManArmy144 i didnt find a single Study that supports what you said. Do you know any source, name or journel? "it can be fully surpassed" i dont think that would be a good thing. Neuroticism isnt negative only. (Sorry for my english -> dyslexic + 3rd language)

Myers Briggs would need to revisit the chalkboard, there’s no type for me. I’m ALL types & so much more. They can never categorize me. Some ppl are not CHARTable as we understand it’s OUR choice to be who we want to be, and how we choose to show up in the world. I really believe this testing lacks intelligence, why would anyone want to label themselves as if they don’t have choice to be something different. I’m sorry to say the Sag in me says this is stupid.

This is pretty much what Dr. Beebe did. He revisited Jung's cognitive functions and discovered that we actually have 4 personality types living in each of us. I don't get why JBP never mentions Beebe in his criticism of MBTI.

[@franxx8]

People just don't get it. MBTI is just a ton of bullshit. I love anime, i love fandom and the exquisite art of explore characters written using the MBTI indicator. But there's a reason why MBTI would never go mainstream, it lacks theoritecal validation. Big 5 results aren't unmutable, and i bet are bullshit too, but lets be honest: companies don't wan't to hire 99th percentile neurotics.

MBTI is not as inaccurate as you're saying, why you're that mad ?

[@xalian17]

False -highly neurotic people have the potential to be successful in a business setting due to fear of failure. A warped sense of perfection and fear of backlash can make a product, workflow, or business approach lucrative. I’d be more concerned with management who selects one trait then disqualifies all people who are high in it. He’s talking about personality “bio-diversity” as something that has merit. An inherently nervous person would be a canary in the coal mine to judge direction, department movement, relationships, etc. has to too much risk or danger. I think a better response is: “it’s best not to hire a team with one dominate trait” like conscientiousness which would poison creativity or agreeably which would never discipline employees.
