Casey takes the Myers-Briggs personality inventory and finds out that they are an ISTP. Having taken Dr. Alison’s Social Psychology course, you can explain to them why the Myers-Briggs inventory is not the most reliable assessment of personality. Which of the following reasons would you not give Casey?

a. The Myers-Briggs has too many possible combinations of personality traits to be reliable

b. Self-fulfilling prophecies make much of their vague personality description make sense

c. People do not receive the same/similar score on the Myers-Briggs when taking it multiple times on different occasions

d. Individuals tend to pay most attention to the information in their Myers-Briggs personality description that confirms their beliefs about themselves

The reason that should not be given to Casey is option b. While self-fulfilling prophecies can play a role in shaping behavior, it is not a primary reason why the Myers-Briggs inventory is considered unreliable.

The other options provide more valid reasons. The Myers-Briggs inventory is criticized for having too many possible combinations of traits, making it difficult to accurately categorize individuals.

Additionally, the inconsistency in scores when taking the inventory multiple times and the tendency for individuals to focus on confirming information in their personality description also undermine its reliability as a measure of personality.
