Myers Briggs Types and Social Media [Infographic]

Have you ever taken the Myers Briggs test?

It is an assessment based on Carl Jung’s theory of psychological types that looks at what kind of characters people have and is broken down into four categories: extraversion or introversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving. These assessments are extremely accurate if taken properly and essential to group constructions for projects and group dynamics.

Recently, the developers of the study, CPP, compared their data to those who use social media and the results are fascinating.

What a great way to get to know your audience better!

Here are some of the best parts of the stats of users on the infographic:

• 69% of extraverts use Facebook, higher than the 65% average of all people, and more than the 60% of introverts.
• 75% of feeling people browse once a day but only 23% share about their personal life
• Intuition people are more likely to use LinkedIn and Twitter than Sensing people.
