MBTI Dichotomies
The group code, known as the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) type, is formed by combining an individual's preference across four core categories. Since each category has two opposing poles, selecting one pole from each category generates a four-letter code that represents how a person interacts with the world and makes decisions.

Energy Source: E (Extraversion) vs I (Introversion)

Information Gathering: S (Sensing) vs N (Intuition)

Decision Making: T (Thinking) vs F (Feeling)

Lifestyle: J (Judging) vs P (Perceiving)


Important Model Note: The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a popular tool but is only a theoretical framework. MBTI® and Myers-Briggs® are registered trademarks of the Myers & Briggs Foundation
It is not widely regarded as a scientifically or psychometrically validated measurement method.
In the context of storytelling and this website, the MBTI types assigned to characters function primarily as an instrument for literary analysis and a subjective point of discussion. Furthermore, fictional characters naturally evolve throughout a narrative, which may lead to apparent shifts in their type preferences over time. The assignment represents an interpretation of their dominant state or personality at a key point in the story. This website, FictionTypes, is an independent literary analysis project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Myers & Briggs Foundation, nor by the original authors, publishers, or rights holders of the characters discussed.
