The questionnaire was developed by Isabel Myers and her mother Katherine Briggs based on their work with [[Carl Jung]]'s theory of personality types. Today, the MBTI inventory is one of the world's most widely used psychological instruments."<ref>[https://www.verywellmind.com/the-myers-briggs-type-indicator-2795583 How the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Works] by Kendra Cherry, MSEd</ref>
