Correlations Between the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and Measures of Aptitudes

This article reports correlations between the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI; Myers & McCaulley, 1985) scales and scales from two aptitude measures: (a) the Differential Aptitude Tests-Adaptive (DAT-A; McBride, 1986; Moe, 1988), using a sample of 122 university and community career assessment clients, and (b) the Ball Aptitude Battery (BAB; Ball Foundation, 1993), using a sample of 99 high school students. The results are similar to those reported by Stricker and Ross (1962). Factors such as sex, age group (adolescent and adult), and the degree to which an aptitude test reflected general cognitive ability appeared to moderate the degree to which the results were in accord with Jungian theory. Implications for career assessment and Jungian personality theory are discussed.
