The 16 Personality Types Test: what it measures and how to interpret your score

Inspired by Carl Jung's typology popularized by the MBTI indicator, this test maps your personality on 4 core axes: energy source (Extraversion / Introversion), information processing (Sensing / Intuition), decision-making (Thinking / Feeling) and structure (Judging / Perceiving). The combination yields one of 16 types. This is not the official MBTI (a registered trademark) but an independent assessment based on the same Jungian dimensions.

In the article that follows, I explore personality types. If you recognise yourself in this theme, I designed a 16 personality types test that helps you take stock of your personality profile. It comes with a guide to extend your reflection beyond the results.

Take the test: The 16 Personality Types → — Curious which of the 16 types you are? Answer a few questions to map your profile across the four Jungian axes.

What the test measures

• Drawing energy from the outer world (Extraversion) vs the inner world (Introversion).
• Favoring concrete facts and the present (Sensing) vs ideas, possibilities and meaning (Intuition).
• Deciding mainly by logic and objectivity (Thinking) vs values and human impact (Feeling).
• Preferring structure, plans and closure (Judging) vs flexibility and openness (Perceiving).

How to interpret your score

Your result reads as an intensity, not a diagnosis:

• Lightly marked profile : Measured tendencies are weak or balanced.
• Nuanced profile : Moderate tendencies emerge across axes.
• Defined profile : Clear tendencies structure your functioning.
• Strongly defined profile : Dominant, highly structuring tendencies stand out.
