Katherine Briggs is 145 INFJ and Isabel Briggs-Myers is 145 INFP - The Researcher and Carl Jung is 135 INTJ (who himself studied with a pioneer in personality theory - Sigmund Freud, 145 INTP.) I'm not too sure about the order of her Tritype ie. 451 or 415 or 145. She said she was leading from the Heart [1] (Type 4) and Head (Type 5) while Carl Jung was leading from the Gut (Type 1) - Jung said he was motivated to understand and explain man: “... (because) the only real danger that exists is men himself. He is the great danger and we are pityfully unaware of it. We know nothing of men. Far too little ... Carl Gustav Jung, 1959 in an interview with John Freeman ( youtube watch?v=2AMu-G51yTY 38:04)” ― C.G. Jung ★ Tritype® 145-The Researcher 'It wasn’t until 1945 that they did some solid empirical research.' [2] INFJ -- 459 - 145 - 125 - 146 - 469 - 458 INTJ -- 458 - 358 - 145 - 135 - 468 INTP -- 459 - 359 - 145 - 135 > INFP -- 459 - 469 - 479 - 145 - 458 - 478 Tritype® 145, 154, 415, 451, 514, 541-The Researcher 'If you are a 145, you are diligent, intuitive, and knowledgeable.' 'You want to be ethical, original, and wise.' 'Motivated to be informed, you are research-oriented.' 'You like to learn and will deeply study whatever captures your interest.' 'Highly intellectual, you are focused on what you perceive is correct and above reproach.' 'You seek and quote the opinions of experts to avoid being uncertain and seen as ignorant.' https://www.personality-database.com/collection/12762/145the-researcher ★ Type 4 They created the test to 'help reduce conflict among people' and then 'understand why some people hated their jobs' ie. in the military. [1] > 'This enables them to identify what is missing, and like a knight on a quest, they search until they find it or create it.' "Fours' greatest strengths are their deep intuition, creativity and ability to transform painful life experiences into opportunities for profound growth and healing. This enables them to identify what is missing, and like a knight on a quest, they search until they find it or create it." K. C. Fauvre ★ Type 1 I've seen her mistyped as ISTJ and Type 1 is a common type amongst ISTJ. "One's integrity, wisdom and adherence to sound procedure can bring clarity and guidance to a confused world. Ones are true pioneers with the ability to envision utopia, and the discipline to put in the hard work necessary to make it happen." K. C. Fauvre ★ Type 5 "With the help of Lyman Briggs, they ran their first MBTI assessment on around 5,500 George Washington Medical School students." [1] 'Fives have an innate ability to gather information and create systems to assess and categorize data in a clear and concise manner.' K. C. Fauvre Katherine Briggs and Isabel are both NFs and Isabel operated as a catalyst after studying Psychological Type from Carl Jung who is 135 INTJ - The Technical Expert. ★ INFP Catalyst 'Curious, quick to see possibilities, can be catalysts for implementing ideas' > INFP "Idealistic, loyal to their values and to people who are important to them. Want an external life that is congruent with their values. Curious, quick to see possibilities, can be catalysts for implementing ideas. Seek to understand people and to help them fulfill their potential. Adaptable, flexible, and accepting unless a value is threatened." The 16 MBTI® Types, Excerpted from Introduction to Type® by Isabel Briggs Myers published by The Myers-Briggs Company [1] "During World War II, Briggs Myers wanted to help reduce conflict among people, but more pragmatically also to understand why some people hated their jobs in the military and others thrived. [2] It wasn’t until 1945 that they did some solid empirical research. With the help of Lyman Briggs, they ran their first MBTI assessment on around 5,500 George Washington Medical School students. Briggs Myers studied the results for years, searching for patterns among dropouts and successful students." https://www.pocketbook.co.uk/blog/2017/05/30/isabel-briggs-myers-katharine-briggs-type-indicator-mbti/
