I asked my wife - a licensed psychologist and Ph.D. -
about the Myers-Briggs test.  It seems she has a rather
low opinion of this particular test; apparently there's
not much validation for its results (in contrast to,
for example, WAIS or MMPI.)

When I went to the web page that Wilderness cited,
I rummaged through the 'P' categories, and felt like
I was reading an astrological column.
