And I would go on to say "and in life in general."

- ironmagma 5y agoIt's really not clear though, are you saying that's bad? Or that the model is bad because of these studies? Or that the studies are bad because of the model?
- kleer001 5y agoI'm saying that Meyer's Briggs is BS and the Big 5 model isn't. One is feel good fantasy and the other is hard reality. Investing time, money, and/or attention in a model with no basis in reality, in one that has no predictive or explanatory power is a bad idea.
