A cautionary "however" would be: "MBTI assessment is a measure of preference, not ability"... Temperament assessment further prioritises predictable leanings to the client MO (modus operendi)...
A couple of vectors not directly addressed by the results of MBTI testing are bias and time/value... Bias would appear when applying MBTI to the self in contrast to others... Implicate to time/value would be a selective relative importance in the life of the client, incident to incident...

The Sixteen Types
U.S. Population Breakdown
The table organizing the sixteen types was created by Isabel Myers (an INFP).ISTJ=11.6%
ISFJ=13.8%
INFJ=1.5%
INTJ=2.1%ISTP=5.4%
ISFP=8.8%
INFP=4.3%
INTP=3.3%ESTP=4.3%
ESFP=8.5%
ENFP=8.1%
ENTP=3.2%ESTJ=8.7%
ESFJ=12.3%
ENFJ=2.4%
ENTJ=1.8%Estimated percentages of the 16 types in
the American population using inferential statistics. The figures above are from a
random sampling of 3009 people culled from
a total pool of 16,000 using the 1998
MBTI Form M. The individuals whose form
results were used in this random sampling
were not provided with the data to verify
or question their accuracy. But these numbers
do provide a working base on which to build
further understanding and development of the
model as extrapolated to larger populations...-------------------------------------------
Keirsey Temperaments
David W. Keirsey mapped four 'temperaments'
to the existing Myers-Briggs system groupings SP, SJ, NF and NT; this often results in confusion of the two theories. However, the Keirsey Temperament Sorter is not directly associated with the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator...e=extraverted and i=introverted...
ISiTeJ = Inspector
ISiFeJ = Protector
INiFeJ = Counselor
INiTeJ = MastermindISeTiP = Crafter
ISeFiP = Composer
INeFiP = Healer
INeTiP = ArchitectESeTiP = Promoter
ESeFiP = Performer
ENeFiP = Champion
ENeTiP = InventorESiTeJ = Supervisor
ESiFeJ = Provider
ENiFeJ = Teacher
ENiTeJ = FieldmarshalTherapists and most other health professionals
have limited time for the process of evaluation
creating a demand for a system to establish a
predictable success rate with very little time... Archtype categories created by consciencious testing and interviewing can produce focused results with a minmum amount of time and effort...
Hope this helps...Rod
