The Myers Briggs personality test classifies people (roughly) into to the following types:
What are the funny letters? Each of the 4 letters in your acronym shows your preference along one of the following four dimensions:
E/I = Extrovert / Introvert (E reenergizes from being around people, I from being away from people) S/N = Sensation / iNtuition ''("I" was taken, so they use "N")'' (S wants concrete, 'now' relevance, N likes abstraction) (S watches things external, N looks inward) T/F = Thinking / Feeling (T values rules, F values relationships) J/P = Judging / Perceiving - the mode of thought used first (J likes to have decision made, P likes to defer decision making) (J uses T or F first, P uses S or N first)
Temperaments:
SJ (Sensation+Judging) - "The Guardians" (Security Seeking) SP (Sensation+Perceiving) - "The Artisans" (Sensation Seeking) NT (iNtuition+Thinking) - "The Rationals" (Knowledge Seeking) NF (iNtuition+Feeling) - "The Idealists" (Identity Seeking)
And Mbti Famous People.

SJ is Capt. Kirk
SP is Scotty
NT is Mr. Spock
NF is Bones

Oh, I almost forgot. It was at IBM, and something like 70% of the class tested NT. Big surprise!
