There is a thread about Myers-Briggs on here somewhere, assuming we didn't lose it in one of the great crashes...
I love the Myers-Briggs test, both for the vocabulary and framework to do some metacognition. If you are talking to someone who is familiar with the concepts you can more efficiently communicate the ideas.
If you couldn't figure it out by that last sentence, I'm a INTJ. Its very important to realize that although things like these can be used to facilitate communication and growth, people are more than just one of 16 different checkboxes. Reading stuff about how INTJs are "supposed" to act sometimes gives me goosebumps and makes me suspicious of a hidden camera crew, but even someone who is such a fan like I am is different in some subtle and not so subtle ways from that type.
EDIT: If you are interested this subject, I would STRONGLY recommend you read Please Understand me II by David Kersey.
