ABSTRACT

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)1 is a useful tool for assessing basic personality traits and their interaction with ADD.

Until recently, very little attention was paid to the MBTI in connection with ADD. Although there is now growing interest in the uses of the MBTI with ADD, only limited research has been undertaken. What is written in this chapter is based on my clinical experience over the past several years, in administering the MBTI to individuals during both assessment for ADD and as a part of ongoing treatment for adult ADD.
