Have any of you read up on studies on race and type? I have found a few, all more than 30 years old. However, to refer:
One study of minority women, samle size being a 100-150 in both cases:
Negro Women were found to be predominantly S, F, and J compared to white women.
Cherokee Women were found to be predominantly N and P compared to white women.
Another study with 350+ Negro elementary school pupils (both sexes) were found to be more S and F than white students.
Of course, these findings are highly controversial, and a samle of 350 out of an entire race is not even a drop in the ocean. Add to that the fact that the MBTI is not scientifically reliable and you have just about as large a disclaimer as you could possible want.
Having said that, I would like to hear if any of you have seen or read other inquireies into type and race? I know that there exists some on Japanese people but I have been unable to find them.
