MBTI Personality Test
Dear Future Chief Resident:The following test is designed to measure your MBTI Personality type. We will bediscussing the theory behind this test, and the results it demonstrates, during the sessionon “Leadership and Personality Types” during the second day of the conference. Thesession will be much more valuable to you if you have completed this test PRIOR to thesession.Completing the test should only take 15 minutes or so. You can complete it on paper, orcan use a web based version located at
http://DOMWebserver.Hitchcock.org/mbti/ 
. The webbased version has several benefits: 1) You do not have to score your results, as the webpage does so for you, 2) You will receive a detailed type report immediately aftercompleting the web based survey, and 3) I will be able to present your group’s specificdata at the session.Several hints about how to best complete this survey:
•
 
There are no right answers to any of these questions.
•
 
Answer the questions quickly, do not over-analyze them. Some seem wordedpoorly. Go with what feels best.
•
 
Answer the questions as “the way you are”, not “the way you’d like to be seen byothers”
•
 
Do not look at the scoring sheet until you have completed all the questions.Thanks for your time, and I look forward to reviewing this at the session!Sincerely,Harley Friedman, MDProgram Director, Internal MedicineDartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center
