MBTI® Type Tables
As part of the research and development of MBTI® Step II materials for use in Europe, Step I reported type data has been obtained for samples from a number of countries.
In 1996 OPP commissioned the Office of National Statistics to collect data, including responses to the MBTI Step I questionnaire, from a representative sample of the UK population.
