Does the MBTI system downplay the importance of taking personal responsibility for your actions? I just think that when you can easily blame your actions on your "primary extraverted thinking function" for example, it becomes all to easy to avoid taking personal responsibility by looking closely at your motives and intentions for acting in any given way. I could easily say, my primary introverted intuition is the reason for my general spaced-outedness, and in all likelihood it may be. But the mbti doesn't get into why one might come to rely on those functions in the first place. In this way it devalues the importance of life experience and personal choice in shaping who we are. What do you guys say, have any of you noticed this? What are your thoughts on the matter?
