Other
instruments might use the structure and names for the sixteen
types but if anything other than the authentic MBTI® instrument
was used the results are not MBTI® types or preferences and should
not be presented as such. In addition, a person-to-person
feedback between practitioner and client is critical and the interpretation
session must be scheduled before the client receives the results. |
