Abstract

Comparison of basic principles of the Myers-Briggs typology and the Socionics revealed disparity between the socionic model of personality type and that proposed by Myers and Briggs for introverted types. Thus the claim of V. L. Pavlov about a correspondence of the J-P criterion in the Myers-Briggs typology with the hypothetical criterion static-dynamic in socionics seems to be wrong.
