Can anyone share any interesting personality type research they have found?
I'm looking at a thesis that demonstrates some relationships between types and the written language they use (Dack, 2001). People with confirmed types provided several writing samples and they were analyzed for the following variables:
mean word count per sentence
mean clause count per sentence
percentage of adjectives to total words
percentage of adverbs to total words
percentage of infinitive verb phrases to total verbs
Strongly suggested relationships:
Male Js and words per sentence
Male Js and clauses per sentence
Female Ns and words per sentence
Males Es and clauses per sentence (inverse, so they used few)
Males Ss and clauses per sentence
Male Ss and adjectives (inverse)
Female Ts and infinitives (inverse)
