I am not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers or come across as racist, etc, etc, just looking to learn something new.
**************************************************************************************
I have been searching to see if there is some kind of list of countries and what Myers Briggs type they would be. There seems to be a list for just about everything else, from Cartoons to Presidents. Oh wait, they're one of the same, anyway, I find it hard to believe there isn't some kind of list for this on the Internet.
How is this helpful to me or why do I care?
First, I want to travel outside of the US some more. I know there are plenty of "Stereotypes" of each nationality, and was wondering if this translates into a dominate Personality Type? Example: I grew up in Chicago,(big melting pot of nationalities) most of my friends were Italian, I can only think of one person out of all the people I interacted with, that was "Introverted", the rest were very out-going. Then if I went over to Chinatown, I'd get this mix of people who were quite or reserved, and other's were out-going. Seem to be a bigger difference between Males / Females and types in Chinatown then with my Italian friends.
I understand culture / up-bringing has to do with a lot of the ways we act, but take my Italian friends, would there be a better chance of them being an Exxx, over an Ixxx?
The Second reason this is kind of an interest has to do with understanding a different country's way of doing business or handling public relations. One thing that comes to mind (sore subject for many, but it's a good example) has to do with that TV show "Whale Wars" and their battle with the Japanese fishing companies / government. Since I started studying Chinese / Mandarin, I have learned a little bit about "saving face" and "giving face." I understand a culture like the Chinese and Japanese, as with a lot of people, will dig there heels in deeper when someone tries to bully or tell them what they can and can not do.
If a country or person is more stubborn or gives in easier, does this make them more likely to be one type over another?
Is there a general personality type for each country?
Respectfully,
SirDude
