The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a system in which people are sorted into 16 categories based on their personalities. Certain online tests decide if the person is introverted or extroverted, sensing or intuitive, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving. Learning about MBTI types helps people understand more about themselves as well as other types of people.
