'MBTI vs I Big Five'

Comparing MBTI and The Big Five can provide valuable insights into general personality traits and behavior.

L'Indicatore di Tipo Myers-Briggs.

Il Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) è uno strumento di valutazione della personalità basato sulle teorie di Carl Jung. Sviluppato da Katharine Cook Briggs e sua figlia Isabel Briggs Myers, il MBTI categorizza le personalità in 16 tipi basati su quattro dicotomie: Introversione/Estroversione (I/E), Sensazione/Intuizione (S/N), Pensiero/Sentimento (F/T) e Giudizio/Percezione (J/P). Viene comunemente utilizzato nello sviluppo personale, nell'orientamento professionale e nella formazione di team.

'Il Grande Cinque'.

The Big Five, also called the Five Factor Model (FFM), came out of research by psychologists like D. W. Fiske and Donald O. Hebb. It measures five broad traits: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. Researchers tend to prefer this model because the results are consistent and hold up well over time.

'MBTI vs i Big Five'

While both the MBTI and the Big Five are tools for understanding personality, they differ significantly in approach and content:
  • Extraversion: MBTI's Introversion/Extraversion (I/E) aligns closely with the Big Five's Extraversion.
  • Sensing/Intuition and Thinking/Feeling: These MBTI dichotomies do not have direct equivalents in the Big Five, but are somewhat reflected in Openness, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism.
  • Judging/Perceiving: Partially comparable to the Big Five's Conscientiousness.
  • Additional Big Five Dimensions: Openness (to experience) and Neuroticism (emotional stability) are unique to the Big Five and not explicitly covered in the MBTI.
  • Unique MBTI Insights: Specific dichotomies like Sensing/Intuition (S/N) and Thinking/Feeling (F/T) offer perspectives not directly paralleled in the Big Five.
Both have their strengths. MBTI puts you in a type (like INFP or ESTJ), while the Big Five scores you on a spectrum for each trait. Neither one tells the whole story, but together they give you a pretty good picture.

Perché DNA Romance sceglie MBTI.

We chose MBTI for DNA Romance for a few practical reasons:
  • Expertise in MBTI: Our psychologist has extensive training in MBTI and understands the theory behind it inside and out. That means the assessments we provide are grounded in real expertise, not just a quiz generator.
  • Repeatability of Results: When people retake the MBTI, they tend to get the same result. That consistency matters when you're building a matching algorithm on top of it; you need personality data that stays stable over time.
  • Inclusivity of Personality Types: The MBTI does not label any personality type as negative, ensuring no one is excluded based on their personality assessment. This inclusive approach allows for a more open and positive framework in understanding and matching individuals.
  • Mainstream Recognition: Chances are you already know your MBTI type, or at least you've heard of it. That familiarity makes it easier to jump in and start using the platform without a learning curve.
Put together, these reasons make MBTI a solid fit for what we're trying to do: help people find compatible partners based on who they actually are.
