The cognitive science paradigm, with its computational and information processing models of the human mind, dominates much of current accounting information systems (AIS) research. While these models aid our understanding of cognition, it is unclear how much of the mind they explain. Personality type theory (PTT) is one supplement to cognitive science. PTT is especially useful for AIS researchers because an extensively tested and validated psychometric instrument based on PTT, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), is available for use in practice and research. We provide an overview of PTT and the MBTI and discuss how AIS researchers can use PTT to complement and extend current research initiatives. We highlight opportunities for PTT-based AIS research by posing research questions, the investigation of which contributes to the AIS literature.

General Preference

The purpose of this research was to measure relationships between preference types of employees and their respective job classifications in public horticulture. Preference type is the way people prefer to look at the external world, perceive information, make decisions, and live a lifestyle. Improved employee interpersonal relations and productivity, and decreased stress and conflict may result from understanding preference types. The Myers Briggs Type Indicator was used to determine preference types at Longwood Gardens, and at Morris, Scott, and Tyler arboreta. According to this research, a correlation exists between preference types and job classifications. In addition, when job classification preferences were compared to each other, they showed areas of potential conflict and miscommunication. In conclusion, my data generally agree with the general preference type theory.

Environment Type

To address the ability of the Salter Environment Type Assessment (SETA) to measure different kinds of campus environments, data from three studies of the SETA with the Work Environment Scale, Group Environment Scale, and University Residence Environment Scale were reexamined (n = 534). Relationship dimension scales were very consistent with extraversion and feeling from environmental type theory. System maintenance and systems change scales were associated with judging and perception on the SETA, respectively. Results from the SETA and personal growth dimension scales were mixed. Based on this analysis, the SETA may serve as a general purpose environmental assessment for use with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.

Based on data from 343 subjects, results suggest that Thompson's Test of Critical Thinking Skills has reasonable item difficulty and discrimination coefficients and appears to be valid. Construct validity was investigated by administering the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and the Group Embedded Figures Test. Although conclusions must be considered tentative pending additional study, the results warrant continued inquiry regarding the measure's value.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) was examined for its utility as a predictor of intellective behaviors. For beginning, intermediate and advanced high school students measures of GPA, IQ, science achievement, and science aptitude were obtained. MBTI subscales were dichotomized and criteria were analyzed relative to the resultant eight groups. MBTI subscales provided evidence that typology may well be a moderating factor in intellective performance. The intuition (S-N) scale provided consistent indication of typological differences moderating performance. MBTI appeared to be more appropriate for heterogeneous groups and lost its discriminatory utility with homogeneous groups.
