Harvey, Robert J.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1995
Confirmatory factor analyses of 94 items on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator were performed for 1,091 adults. Results provided qualified support for the four-factor model. Exploratory factor analyses were also performed to identify areas in which model fit could be improved; these analyses strongly supported the four-factor analysis. (SLD)

The development of the new fifth edition of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) is described. The factor structure of the new 16PF was explored with 4 samples ranging from 646 to 3,498 subjects. Results support the validity of the 16PF factor structure and its continuity with earlier versions. (SLD)

Johnson, William L.; Johnson, Annabel M.; Murphy, Stanley D.; Weiss, Ardith; Zimmerman, Kurt J. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1998
This study examined the factor structure of Form G of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (K. Briggs and I. Myers, 1987). A third-order component analysis of a sample of 486 college students yielded three higher-order components. These findings contribute to the literature pertaining to the generalized structure of the instrument. (SLD)

Tzeng, Oliver C. S.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1991
Measurement properties of two response formats (bipolar and unipolar ratings) in personality assessment were compared using data from 135 college students taking the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Factorial validity and construct validity of the MBTI were supported. Reasons why the bipolar method is preferable are discussed. (SLD)
