Personality Types

When it comes to the compatibility of the Myers Briggs types, there are lots of contradictory theories out there and each of them claims to have found the right fomula. Some of them say that the compatibility is higher as the types are more similar, others sustain the contrary, that the best relationships happen between opposite typologies. In order to shed some light on the matter, I’ve decided to present every one of them in my posts and let you decide for yourself which one is the most accurate.

For those of you who have taken their MB knowledge to a higher level, there are also these very accurate and scientific tests that measure your use of each of the cognitive functions in order to determine your type. The tests are not officially 'online' but they still can be found in the site's archives and they're functional (they will compute your results). Here you go: Cognitive Development Survey  ( attention: Submit link is broken ) This is an extraordinarily accurate test and I very much enjoyed the way it was conceived and carried out. The options are clear and insightful, although I have to stress some of them favor the Intuits as they can get quite abstract. Interstrength Cognitive Assessment  ( valid link ) This is the older version of the above test, with a different form of presentation, but equally reliable. InterStrength Dynamics Assessment  ( attention: Submit link is broken ) This test is said to be one of the best and one of the ...

Enneagram Institute RHETI sample Scroll down the page to find the test. It's an excerpt from the longer, paid version of the RHETI test, the only certified Enneagram type indicator to date.

The results are sorted by probability in three categories. The greatest advantage of this test is that it won't take more than 10 minutes to complete.

Eclectic Energies test w/ instinctual variants A shorter version, based on word choice. I found it a bit less accurate than the classical test. Quizfarm test This test is ...

HumanMetrics Test This is one of the most popular tests online, it's not one of my personal favourites but it's not very long and is sufficiently accurate.
