- 2. PROFILE MYERS-BRIGGS TYPE INDICATOR® | STEP I™ MOHAN ARULDHAS ISTJ | 2 Your Myers-Briggs® Profile is designed to help you understand your results on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI® ) assessment. This assessment identifies which of 16 different personality types best describes you. Your answers to the questions on the MBTI assessment show which preference in each of four pairs of opposites you favor. Your preferences are choices between equally valuable and useful qualities. Each preference is indicated by a letter. Your Myers-Briggs personality type ISTJ Your preferences Introversion | Sensing | Thinking | Judging RESPONSIBLE REALIST THE WAY YOU DIRECT AND RECEIVE ENERGY Extraversion People who prefer Extraversion tend to direct their energy toward the outside world and get energized by interacting with people and taking action. Introversion People who prefer Introversion tend to direct their energy toward their inner world and get energized by reflecting on their ideas and experiences. THE WAY YOU TAKE IN INFORMATION Sensing People who prefer Sensing tend to take in information that is real and tangible. They focus mainly on what they perceive using the five senses. Intuition People who prefer Intuition tend to take in information by seeing the big picture. They focus mainly on the patterns and interrelationships they perceive. THE WAY YOU DECIDE AND COME TO CONCLUSIONS Thinking People who prefer Thinking typically base their decisions and conclusions on logic, with accuracy and objective truth the primary goals. Feeling People who prefer Feeling typically base their decisions and conclusions on personal and social values, with understanding and harmony the primary goals. THE WAY YOU APPROACH THE OUTSIDE WORLD Judging People who prefer Judging typically come to conclusions quickly and want to move on, and take an organized, planned approach to the world. Perceiving People who prefer Perceiving typically look for more information before coming to conclusions and take a spontaneous, flexible approach to the world.

Although most ISTJs have personality attributes in common, there are still plenty of individual differences among people who share the same four-letter type. Your MBTI responses also provide a picture of how clearly or consistently you chose your preference in each pair of opposites. This preference clarity index (pci) is indicated in the graph below. A longer line suggests that you are quite sure about a preference; a shorter line means that you are less sure about whether that preference truly describes you. Your preference clarity does not indicate how well developed your preferences are or how well you use them.
