What theoretical framework does the Myers Briggs Type Indicator utilize?

Cognitive behavior theory
Psychoanalysis
Jung's concepts of perception and judgment
Humanistic psychology

The correct answer is: Jung's concepts of perception and judgment

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is grounded in the theoretical framework established by Carl Jung, particularly his concepts of perception and judgment. Jung proposed that individuals have innate preferences for how they perceive the world and make decisions, and these preferences form the basis of personality types. The MBTI uses Jung's theory to categorize personality into sixteen distinct types based on four dichotomies: extraversion vs. introversion, sensing vs. intuition, thinking vs. feeling, and judging vs. perceiving. This framework provides a systematic way to explore personality differences, helping individuals understand their own behaviors and those of others in a constructive manner. Thus, the basis of the MBTI aligns directly with Jung's concepts, making it the most accurate choice regarding its theoretical framework.
