Hope:

How’s life, Joey?

Joey:

Pretty good. How about you, Hope?

Hope:

Very well.

Joey:

So, Hope. Last week we talked about some personal traits in MBTI. Hmm…Extrovert and Introvert.

Hope:

That’s right.

Joey:

Can we discuss more about other personal traits?

Hope:

Of course.

Joey:

I know there are 五大性格指標, right?

Hope:

Yes, there are 5 personality aspects in the theory, including: Energy, Mind, Nature, Tactics and Identity.

Joey:

I know, I know. Energy (能量產生方式)、Mind (思維模式)、Nature (做決策的依據)、

and Tactics (生活反應態度) and Identity (自信程度)

Hope:

Hey, Joey, you know MBTI so well.

Joey:

Well, I am just interested in it.

Hope:

I see. So, according to the MBTI theory, the five personality aspects reveal our strategy use when making decisions.

Joey:

I see.

Hope:

For example, Energy aspect shows how we interact with our surroundings.

Joey:

I know, Energy是指和環境互動, how we interact with our surroundings.

Hope:

That’s right. It includes Extraversion and Introversion.

Joey:

Ah~外向型extraversion及內向型introversion。

Hope:

And Next one, Mind. Mind determines how we see the world and process information.

Joey:

I see, so Mind 思維模式決定我們如何因應周遭資訊.

Hope:

Yes. So, it includes Sensing and iNtuition.

Joey:

Sensing 是實感型 and iNtuition 是直覺型, right?

Hope:

That’s right. Next one is Nature. Nature aspect determines how we make decisions and cope with emotions.

Joey:

Oh, so Nature 是指做決策和處理情感, 對嗎?

Hope:

Yes, and it includes Thinking and Feeling.

Joey:

So, Nature 分為Thinking (理性型) and Feeling (感性型)

Hope:

The following one is Tactics. This aspect reflects our approach to work, planning and decision making.

Joey:

So, Tactics 包括系統型and 彈性型, right?

Hope:

Yes, Tactics include Judging and Perceiving.

Joey:

呵呵，中文和英文的翻譯差好大呀! Judging是系統型and Perceiving是彈性型. And Perceive means察覺到某事, doesn’t it?

Hope:

Yes. Perceive means to notice something. The fifth one is Identity, which underpins all others,

showing how confident we are in our abilities and decisions.

Joey:

Underpin? What does it mean?

Hope:

Underpin means to give support and strength.

Joey:

加強；鞏固?

Hope:

Yes. So Identity include two types, Assertive (-A) and Turbulent (-T).

Joey:

What does assertive mean?

Hope:

When you are assertive, you behave confidently.

Joey:

So, assertive means 表現出有自信的。Then what about turbulent? What does it mean?

Hope:

Compare to Assertive, Turbulent involves a lot of sudden changes and arguments or violence.

Joey:

So, Turbulent means 善變；動盪的, right?

Hope:

That’s right.

Joey:

Wow, there are a lot of words related to MBTI.
