Personality types are a popular way to describe yourself, but most personality type assessments are very misleading.
While some people are described well by a single personality type, most people fall somewhere between multiple types.
This is why most personality type assessments never feel quite right.
In fact, a valid, reliable assessment should show your similarity to all 16 personality types.
TraitLab Plus calculates your unique typology profile, showing how your unique personality compares to 16 personality types.
First, you'll answer a carefully selected set of questions. Your answers help TraitLab understand your patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving across different situations.
Next, TraitLab compares your answers to millions of responses and builds a highly detailed, unique personality profile.
Then, your profile is compared to thousands of examples of each personality type, and TraitLab estimates your similarity to every type.
In addition your similarity to each type, you'll also learn about your level on the four attitudes and preferences underlying the Jungian typology:

TraitLab's 16 Personality Types feature analyzes your personality to determine your similarity to each of the 16 personality types from the popular Jungian framework, offering a nuanced understanding of where you fit within this typology.
TraitLab uses your responses to a series of questions to build a detailed personality profile, which is then compared to thousands of examples of each personality type to estimate your similarity to all 16 types.
Most assessments will label you with a single personality type, but TraitLab provides a profile showing your similarity to all 16 types, acknowledging that most individuals exhibit a unique blend of multiple types.
TraitLab also includes analyses of your four underlying attitudes and preferences (e.g., Sensing vs. Intuiting), and detailed type reports covering each type's distinctive personality traits, interpersonal style, strengths, Enneagram type similarities, and career interests.
No, TraitLab's 16 Personality Types Test is not the same as the MBTI. While it uses the same 16-type taxonomy as MBTI, TraitLab bases its predictions on scientifically validated measures of personality traits. It also provides probabilities for all 16 types, rather than assigning a single type, giving a more nuanced and accurate representation of personality.
No, TraitLab’s 16 Personality Types Test is not the same as the "16Personalities" test. While both use the same 16-type framework, the "16Personalities" test is based on its own interpretation of the Jungian theory used by the MBTI. In contrast, TraitLab uses scientifically validated measures to calculate your similarity to all 16 types, offering a more nuanced and research-backed perspective. Unlike "16Personalities," which assigns a single type, TraitLab shows how you align with all 16 types, reflecting the complexity of your personality.
TraitLab stands out by offering probabilities for all 16 types rather than forcing users into a single category. This approach recognizes that most people are blends of multiple types, rather than fitting neatly into one. Additionally, it links your results to modern approaches to personality assessment, providing deeper, research-based insights that other tests lack.
TraitLab's approach shows you the likelihood of being classified as each of the 16 personality types, showing how much you align with each type. It also bridges the gap between popular personality frameworks and modern psychology by connecting your type probabilities to validated personality traits like Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. This comprehensive view helps you understand yourself in greater detail and see how you fit within broader psychological frameworks.
The test consists of approximately 350 questions for the most accurate results. However, you can see initial predictions after answering around 100 questions.
