Personality Type Tests

Understanding your own personality type allows you to learn more about yourself. This includes how you prefer to energize yourself, (how you recharge your batteries when you're exhausted), how you interact with those around you, how you perceive the world, gather information and make decisions, how much structure you prefer in your life, which careers you would be naturally suited for, which personality types you get along well with, and which modalities for personal growth and development you're naturally suited to.

Here is a link to PersonalityPage.com that includes a personality type test.

Here is a link to an easy-to-use online personality type test. It has only 72 questions and you can complete it in only a few minutes. In addition it is self-scoring.

When you answer the questions, imagine that you are at home, in a comfortable place, with your shoes off. Answer the questions from the perspective of what feels real for you, not how you think you should behave, or how someone else might expect you to behave.

For each question there are two choices. Choose the one that is most appropriate, most comfortable to you, either (a) or (b). There are no correct or wrong answers. About half of the population will agree with whatever choice you make.

Here is a link to another personality type test. It will take about ten minutes, and is also self scoring. I just completed it and the results were the same as the test above, and as the official 125+ question Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI).

Don't forget that no personality type test is perfect, and even the official MBTI will report an incorrect result on one of the four scales (E/I, S/N, T/F, J/P) about 25% of the time. This is why it is important to read a complete type description to be sure it describes you.

Here is a link to a third personality test. It contains 76 questions, is self-scoring and will take about ten minutes. I took it on January 5, 2020 and the results were the same as the MBTI. NOTE: If you just want the personality type test, be sure to UN-check the other three options.
