Abstract

The Jungian personality typology has been widely used in MIS research to investigate personal characteristics of MIS participants. The Personal Style Inventory (PSI) is a Jungian instrument in the public domain which has received little previous attention from the MIS community. Reliability, concurrent validity, and construct validity were investigated in an experiment where this instrument was directly compared with the Abbreviated Version of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI/AV) utilizing a sample of undergraduate business majors. Although the PSI was found to be a somewhat weaker instrument, the ability to directly incorporate it into other questionnaires makes it a useful tool for research utilizing a blind mail survey methodology.
