Abstract

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a well-known personality assessment designed to classify individuals into different personality types. It is a widely used personality test that helps people understand others’ cognitive, decision-making, and behavioral preferences. The assessment attempts to gain insight into how people think, behave, communicate, and interact with the world around them and with the world around them. The MBTI focuses on four dimensions: thinking orientation, the way people get information, the way people make decisions, and the way people live their lives. The results of this study can help people better understand their tendencies to think and behave in a better way, better develop themselves, understand different people's preferences in choosing and adapting to careers, help us plan our careers, find careers that make use of our talents, and identify whether the chosen career is right for us. In this study, a new method is created to infer an individual’s MBTI label based on people’s online postings. The performance of the method proposed in this study was compared with other existing methods, and the results showed better accuracy and reliability.
