Abstract

In the last few years ,the personality test (MBTI and Eysenck)has been gaining popularity among young people, everyone is accustomed to using an personality test result to summarize themselves, especially when socializing. Both of these tests are interesting, one of this is divided all the personalities into 16 personalities by accurately, and the other is by looking at the three dimensions of extroversion and introversionit. But the phenomenon also raises some questions: Can our personalities be changed and limited by the results of the personality test? Therefore, we conducted the following experiments for the question: including questionnaire survey, bar chart and T-test were used for data analysis. However, instead of selecting all the mbti labels in our research completely, we chose to study only a subset of the mbti labels: extroversion and introversion(e and i), in other words , using the Eysenck personality test. In this series of work, the comparison and analysis of the data found similar results to the original suspects –-personality labels does change and limit people’s behavior and thinking in a subtle way. Therefore, being one of the pioneer studies on the impact of mbti results on people, the unique value of this research lies in help most people today understand themselves better, and not be held back by the results of some test that everyone is full of infinite possibilities.
