PERSONA

Will Make You Think Twice About Taking Personality Tests.

“When writer Merve Emre starts to investigate the history of America’s obsession with personality tests, she has no idea how strange it will get.”

Persona: The Dark Truth Behind Personality Test explores the history of the Myers-Briggs personality assessment and examines how it became a potentially dangerous tool. It reveals the profound ways that ideas about personality have shaped our society and raises a slew of ethical questions about how some personality tests may do more harm than good - like impacting online dating matches or job prospects.

Inspired by Merve Emre’s The Personality Brokers
