Briggs-Myers Theory of Psychological Types
The Briggs-Myers Theory of Psychological Types, developed by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers, categorizes people based on how they perceive the world and make decisions. It identifies four key dimensions: where you focus your attention (extraversion or introversion), how you gather information (sensing or intuition), how you evaluate options (thinking or feeling), and how you organize life (judging or perceiving). Combined, these factors create 16 personality types, helping individuals understand their preferences, behaviors, and interactions with others more clearly.
