| Summary: | The Francis Psychological Type Scales (FPTS) were developed to operationalise psychological type theory in a way appropriate for and accessible to survey-style research, administered either online or offline. For the present study, two samples of adults participating in short courses relevant for Christian ministry (N = 185 and 392) completed the FPTS at least one day after completing the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®). The data: confirmed the basic factor structure of the FPTS; demonstrated the satisfactory internal consistency reliability of the indices of introversion and extraversion, sensing and intuition, feeling and thinking, judging and perceiving; and supported the concurrent validity of this measure against the MBTI® in terms of both correlations between continuous scale scores and allocation to type categories. |
