  • Over-representation of Myers Briggs type indicator introversion in social phobia patients.
    Depression and anxiety, 2000
    Co-Authors: David S. Janowsky, Shirley Morter, Manuel Tancer
    Abstract:

    The purpose of this study is to profile the personalities of patients with social phobia. Sixteen patients with social phobia were compared with a normative population of 55,971, and with 24 hospitalized Major Depressive Disorder inpatients, using the Myers Briggs type indicator. The Myers Briggs type indicator, a popular personality survey, divides individuals into eight categories: Extroverts versus Introverts, Sensors versus Intuitives, Thinkers versus Feelers, and Judgers versus Perceivers. Social phobia patients were significantly more often Introverts (93.7%) than were subjects in the normative population (46.2%). In addition, using continuous scores, the social phobia patients scored as significantly more introverted than did the patients with Major Depressive Disorder, who also scored as Introverted. Introversion is a major component of social phobia, and this observation may have both etiological and therapeutic significance.

  • Myers Briggs type indicator personality profiles in unipolar depressed patients.
    The world journal of biological psychiatry : the official journal of the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry, 2002
    Co-Authors: David S. Janowsky, Shirley Morter, Elliot Hong, Laura Howe
    Abstract:

    Summary: Objective: The current study was designed to compare the distribution of Myers Briggs type indicator (MBTI) personality types in patients with Unipolar Depression compared to normative data.Method: The MBTI divides individuals into four dichotomous types: Extroverted and Introverted, Sensing and Intuitive, Thinking and Feeling, and fudging and Perceiving. This yields eight single-factor and sixteen four-factor types. One-hundred-thirty Unipolar Depressed patients were administered the MBTI-Form F.Results: Unipolar Depressed patients were significantly more often Introverted, Sensing, Feeling, and Perceiving single-factor types respectively, and Introverted-Sensing-Feeling-Perceiving, and Introverted-Intuitive-Feeling-Perceiving four-factor types. The male Introverted-Sensing-Feeling-Perceiving four-factor type was the most dramatically over-represented.Conclusion: The MBTI effectively discriminates a patient group with Unipolar Depression from a normative population.

  • Relationship of Myers Briggs type indicator personality characteristics to suicidality in affective disorder patients.
    Journal of psychiatric research, 2002
    Co-Authors: David S. Janowsky, Shirley Morter, Liyi Hong
    Abstract:

    The current study characterized the Myers Briggs type indicator (MBTI) personality profiles of 64 suicidal and 30 non-suicidal psychiatric inpatients with affective disorder diagnoses. The MBTI divides individuals categorically into eight personality preferences (Extroverted and Introverted, Sensing and Intuitive, Thinking and Feeling, and Judging and Perceiving). Compared to the group of non-suicidal affective disorder patients, suicidal affective disorder patients were significantly more Introverted and Perceiving using ANCOVA analyses, and significantly more Introverted alone using Chi Square analyses.

  • the myers briggs type indicator and applications to accounting education and research
    Issues in Accounting Education, 2001
    Co-Authors: Patrick R Wheeler
    Abstract:

    Many of the challenges facing the accounting profession involve personality characteristics of accountants. Personality theories have generated a rich research stream outside accounting and are widely applied in other disciplines and professions. Yet little research using these theories has been done in accounting. To redress this imbalance, this paper examines Jungian personality‐type psychology—one of the main personality theories—and the major psychometric instrument that has arisen from it—the Myers‐Briggs type indicator (MBTI). The MBTI has been extensively tested for reliability and validity, and used in a large number of basic and education research studies. Results from reliability and validity testing indicate that the MBTI reliably measures personality characteristics predicted by Jungian theory. A small amount of published research has been conducted in accounting using the MBTI. These 16 articles are reviewed, with suggestions for additional research.
