Naked Psychology with Doug and Kendall on Personality test. Are they accurate?
In this episode of Naked Psychology with Doug and Kendall, we’re diving into the world of personality tests—are they helpful tools for self-discovery, or just modern-day horoscopes in disguise? From the popular Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to the Big Five personality traits, we explore what these assessments claim to reveal about who we are and how accurate they really are. Can a test really help you understand yourself or your relationships better? Or are we just putting ourselves into convenient little boxes? We’ll unpack the science behind personality testing, discuss their uses (and misuses), and reflect on why so many of us are drawn to learning “what type” we are. Whether you're a die-hard INFJ or just curious about what makes personality tests so appealing, tune in for a candid look at the psychology behind the labels.
