[at-l] Myers-Briggs Test

[thornel@attglobal.net (W F Thorneloe)]

Well, would you first like to take a Mini-Mental Status exam to allow me to 
evaluate your cognitive deficits?

;-)

The Myers-Briggs is a small test that looks at personality and relationship 
traits on a small number of axis, giving a simplistic look at emotional and 
problem solving skills. It has a number of benefits given the simplicity 
and brevity of the exam, but also is limited in providing detail for 
diagnostic value. Of course, YMMV. It is often used in employment and group 
dynamic evaluations.

The issue arose during the GARA (Give A Rat's A**) thread over some trouble 
maker on another list. Folks were suggesting that certain Myers-Briggs 
scores would dictate who could/would want to join as charter members.
