More on the MBTI farce...

Posted by MissKittyFantastico |

The web site we were supposed to take the test on sez the test was developed by "Carl Jung and Isabel Myers-Briggs" The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator was dreamed up by Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother, Katharine Cook Briggs.

So. This freak show, thrown together by a home-schooled Jungian and her wackaloon mother eighty-some years ago, is taken seriously as a psychological test? And the company that offers this extremely accurate and useful analysis doesn't even know the correct name of one of the test's developers?? It's astonishing that people will pay for this crap when they can get a sun-sign personality profile for free.

UPDATE: Also for free: correlate your sign with an MBTI result!! I'm ENTP. Yay science!
