The translation and standardization of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) into the Greek languageFitopoulos, Lazarus. January 1996 (has links)
The project describes the development and standardization of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator into the Greek language. Statistical properties of the Greek version were comparable to those of the original American version providing evidence of its adequacy as a psychometric tool. The comparison of the distribution of types of Greek university students (N = 946) with that of French Canadians, and Americans showed a preference for "thinking" and "perceiving". Further, gender associated preferences for thinking and feeling evident in the American and French Canadian norms were also present in the Greek data.

Effective personality profiles in negotiation according to the Myers-Briggs type indicatorTruter, Hendrieka 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2001. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This explorative study set out to investigate the effectiveness of different
personalities in negotiation. The research problem originated as result of the search
through literature aimed at developing a negotiation skills program for the South African
Army. Many authors were found to refer to the importance of personality on the process
and outcome of negotiation, but that existing research focus mainly on single personality
traits and often indicated inconclusive results. These findings stirred curiosity to explore the
possibility that certain personality types, according to a more comprehensive theory of
personality, may prove to be more effective than others.
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Form G self-scoring and two separate role-plays
were used to gather data for this research. The role-plays placed similar boundaries on the
participants in terms of the type of agreement that could be reached as well as the financial
terms involved. The MBTI results were used as continuous scores and the eight subscales
as separate groups and also according to a number of combinations of the subscales.
The possible influence of a number of variables were taken into account namely, age,
gender, military rank, level of formal education and ethnicity. Though the majority of these
variables were found to be possible covariates of personality they appear not to have
influenced the outcome of the research. This was because no significant correlations
appeared to exist between the outcome of the negotiation role-plays and the various scales and subscales of the MBTI. According to these results, and within the confinement of this
research it would appear that the various personality types do not differ in terms of the
effectiveness in negotiation. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie het ten doel gehad om die doeltreffendheid van verskillende
persoonlikhede in onderhandeling te ondersoek. Die navorsingprobleem het voortgespruit
uit 'n literatuursoektog wat daarop gemik was om 'n kursus in onderhandelingsvaardigheid
vir die Suid Afrikaanse Leër te ontwikkel. Tydens hierdie soektog is bevind dat verskeie
skrywers na die belangrikheid van persoonlikheid verwys, synde 'n invloed op die proses en
uitkoms van die onderhandeling te hê. Daar is ook bevind dat bestaande navorsing
hoofsaaklik gebruik maak van enkele persoonlikheidstrekke en dat hierdie benadering
dikwels nie afdoende bevindinge tot gevolg gehad het. Die gedagte het gevolglik ontstaan
om ondersoek in te stel na die moontlikheid dat sekere persoonlikhede, gebaseer op 'n
meer omvattende teorie, dalk groter sukses in onderhandeling mag behaal as ander.
Ten einde die navorsingsprobleem op te los is besluit om die "Myers-Briggs Type
Indicator" vorm G en twee afsonderlike rolspele te gebruik om data in te samel. Die rolspele
is spesifiek vir die navorsing ontwerp om ooreenstemmende beperkinge op die deelnemers
te plaas in terme van die soort ooreenkoms wat bereik moet word, asook die finsiële terme
betrokke. Die resultate van die MBTI is gebruik in die vorm van kontinuë data, as aparte
stelle subskale en ook volgens 'n verskeidenheid kombinasies van die subskale.
Die moontlike invloed van 'n verskeidenheid veranderlikes is in berekening gebring,
naamlik ouderdom, geslag, militêre rang, vlak van formele opvoeding en etniese groep.
Alhoewel daar bevind is dat die meerderheid van die veranderlikes moontlike kovariate mag
wees wil dit voorkom asof dit nie die bevindinge van die navorsing beïnvloed het nie. Die
rede daarvoor was dat geen beduidende korrelasie gevind is tussen die resultate van die
rolspele en die verskillende skale en subskale van die MBTI nie. Volgens hierdie
bevindinge en binne die beperkings van hierdie navorsing wil dit voorkom dat
persoonlikheidstipes nie verskil in terme van die sukses in onderhandeling nie.

The relationship between personality type and leadership focus.Sieff, Grant Benjamin 21 November 2007 (has links)
The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the relationship between personality type and leadership focus. Personality type is studied from the perspective of Jungian Theory and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator instrument, and leadership focus is explored through the development and application of a Leadership Focus Questionnaire. South African executives form the target population for this research. The overall research problem concerns how best to address the challenges of optimising focus and managing risk that is inherent in strategic leadership. Both functionalist and interpretive approaches were applied to produce a rounded understanding of what constitutes leadership focus. The application of a functionalist approach resulted in three primary theoretical hypotheses being derived from the literature, namely, that leadership focus is a function of (1) optimising the balance of focus between external and internal priorities, (2) the fit between the leadership personality type and the organisation type, and (3) the capacity to manage a multiple focus. The interpretation of the responses from the sample of executives participating in the research study yielded a related set of first and second order factors relating to leadership focus that revolve around the level of comfort experienced by executives in managing focus in the leadership role. The approach to this research was one of methodological triangulation. A survey-based methodology was employed, containing both quantitative and qualitative questions. The results of the quantitative analysis of the relationship between personality type and leadership focus were contrasted and extended by a qualitative content analysis of the qualitative survey responses. The propositions were tested on a sample of South African executives attending management development programmes run by Wits Business School, University of Witwatersrand, in both Johannesburg and Cape Town. The findings show that Extraverted personality types are more comfortable with the challenges of focus in the leadership role than are Introverted types. In addition, Extraverted, Sensing, Thinking and Judging types experience a greater degree of fit with their organisations than do Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Perceiving types. The implications are that in a business environment of ongoing change, market innovation and increasing stakeholder expectations, organisation leaders of all personality types need to develop a greater consciousness of their preferred and less preferred behaviours, and a greater ability to complement their preferred leadership behaviours with less preferred behaviours when necessary, to optimise their leadership focus over time. / Dr. Loius Carstens

A marriage enrichment program based on the Myers-Briggs Type IndicatorHinckley, Megan 15 August 2012 (has links)
M.A. / The divorce rate in South Africa has reached alarming proportions. In 1994 alone, 29 878 divorces were reported in South Africa, and a total of 38 367 children were traumatised by these divorces. Despite this, most people still marry, or want to marry. Marriage is one of the most important and meaningful relationships we can have as human beings. It enriches our lives and provides fulfillment and companionship. Many couples entering into the marital relationship are not aware of the demands of marriage, and especially of the demands of modern marriages where marital roles are new and different. Marriage enrichment is a movement to help couples.to respond to these demands. Enrichment programs teach partners interpersonal skills and build empathetic respect between individuals within the marital relationship. Although there are many marriage enrichment programs currently in use, there seems to be not one in South Africa that is based on the concepts of personality type differences. The aim of this study was to develop a marriage enrichment program based on the concepts of personality type, as indicated by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The focus was to educate couples in personality type differences, thereby creating self-awareness and awareness of others, and enabling them to better understand themselves and their spouses. The program was designed and developed and then trial-tested on two groups of volunteers consisting of two couples in each group. Feedback received yielded positive results, and the participants found the program to be useful and valuable in their own relationships.
