MBTI bridge

Which of our types is MBTI ISTJ?

The four letters of ISTJ pin down four of our five axes. The one left over is emotional amplitude, so ISTJ arrives here as two types rather than one.

What separates the two?

Emotional amplitude. Within the same ISTJ there is a side that swings widely and a side that stays level through the same moment. MBTI carries that difference as the -T / -A suffix; we set it up as one of the five axes from the start, and give the two sides different names.

MBTI and this test measure personality differently, so this is not an exact conversion. Use it as a shared reference for reading both results together.
