What’s Your Cognitive Function?

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a personality test based on the influential theory of psychological types proposed by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung in 1921 that categorizes people into one of 16 types. MBTI is a useful tool for understanding how we and others (a) interact with the world, (b) process information, and (c) adapt to new information.

MBTI is often misunderstood and misapplied, but time spent learning how cognitive functions work and interrelate will be rewarded, particularly with regard to why the nondual understanding is often more accessible to intuitive types than sensing types.

To learn more about MBTI, an introductory reading recommendation is Personality Hacker by Antonia Dodge and Joel Mark Witt.
