Understanding the Parochial Church Council: Dynamics of Psychological Type and Gender

Abstract

Summary A sample of 74 female and 40 male members from six Parochial Church Councils completed Form G (Anglicized) of the MBTI. The data demonstrated that both men and women preferred introversion over extraversion and judging over perceiving. The women also demonstrated clear preference for sensing over intuition, and for feeling over thinking, while the men demonstrated clear preferences for intuition over sensing, and for thinking over feeling. Attention is drawn to possible areas of conflict. Website: www.bangor.ac.uk/rs/pt
