This study was conducted to evaluate whether a brief self-description checklist may provide a viable method of quickly obtaining initial personality type information. The Personal Preferences Self-Description Questionnaire (PPSDQ) and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) were administered to 420 college students, and PPSDQ item-response and MBTI scale-score data were analyzed using LISREL confirmatory factor analysis. Although one model (number 4) provided the best fit to the data, it is clear that a better fitting model must still be pursued. Additional items may be needed to measure the Judging-Perceiving dimension. Three tables present findings. An appendix presents six charts of fit statistics, and a second appendix lists word pairs.
