MBTI 是性格分類的一種，由瑞士心理分析家榮格於1921年所提出，經過多年的發展，MBTI 現已成為全球著名的性格測試之一。

當中包括教育界、顧員招聘及培訓、領袖訓練及個人發展等領域均有廣泛的應用。 人的性格傾向，就像分別使用自己的兩隻手寫字一樣，都可以寫出來，但慣用的那只寫出的會比另一隻更好。每個人都會沿著自己所屬的類型發展出個人行為、技巧和態度，而每一種也都存在著自己的潛能和潛在的盲點。本次測試主要探討各種性格類型與相關職業的匹配程度MBTI傾向顯示了人與人之間的差異，而這些差異產生於：

– 他們把注意力集中在何處，從哪裡獲得動力（外向、內向）

-   他們獲取資訊的方式（實感、直覺）

– 他們做決定的方法（思維、情感)

– 他們對外在世界如何取向；通過認知的過程或判斷的過程（判斷、知覺）

使用字母代表如下：
精力支配：外向 E — 內向 I
認識世界：實感 S — 直覺 N
判斷事物：思維 T — 情感 F
生活態度：判斷 J — 知覺 P
其中兩兩組合，可以組合成16種人格類型：
