Description

Psychological testing usually focuses on diagnosing psychopathology rather than healthy personality strengths. The purpose of this workshop is to show the utility of adding the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to a comprehensive test battery for practice, training, and research. In this workshop we show how to use the MBTI to supplement problem-focused measures (e.g., the MMPI-2), using data from the Fielding Training Clinic at New Life Institute (FTC-NLI) practice research network (PRN). 

Objectives

Objective #1 Based on the content of this program, participants will be able to understand MBTI psychological type theory for the identification and appreciation of differences.
Objective #2 Based on the content of this program, participants will be able to apply the MBTI for mapping patterns of healthy personality and patterns of symptom expression.
Objective #3 Based on the content of this program, participants will be able to learn how to combine the MBTI and the MMPI-2 for use in a therapeutic assessment discussion session.
