When learning about your personality type, it’s important to have an accurate understanding of the INFJ cognitive functions. These functions help us understand how our brains take in information and make decisions…

A parent who is professionally trained in MBTI may be able to make a decent educated guess to their child’s personality type by observing behavior patterns. However, many parents are wrong even at guessing basic personality traits, like extroversion and introversion. This is because our personality doesn’t fully develop until we’re adults. Children…
