theory of personality. In addition to classifying a person's type this test
provides scores for each of the type dimensions thereby offering a more detailed
description of the candidate's personality than is provided by most type indicators.
What the JTI measures
The Jung Type Indicator assesses a person's psychological type
using the categories first proposed by the Swiss Psychologist C.G. Jung. These
are (EI) Extraversion vs. Introversion, (TF) Thinking vs. Feeling and (SN) Sensing
vs. Intuiting. An additional scale, (JP) Judging-Perceiving reflects whether
the respondent adopts a judging attitude (thinking or feeling) or a perceptive
attitude (sensing or intuition) towards the world. Measuring a person's thinking
style and the way they deal with information, this test is particularly useful
for counselling, guidance, team building and examining how people will interact
in group settings.
JTI reports
Summary and extended Typology reports are included with the GeneSys
implementation. These reports have been written in a style which makes them
ideal to give directly to the respondent. Advantages Reliable, quick to complete
and available for on-screen and pencil-and-paper administration the JTI is the
ideal tool for examining personal style. Enabling you to identify how a person
typically deals with information and the role they are likely to play within
a team; psychological type forms a key part in many development, team building
and guidance programmes. The JTI includes a simple self-scoring mechanism which
allow respondents to score and profile their own Jungian Type in a matter of
minutes. The profile chart contains full descriptions of each of the 16 types.
With its emphasis on the relative strengths and weaknesses of each psychological
type, Jung's theory of personality constitutes an essential component of many
training and development programmes.
