Hello. Welcome to the Great Lakes APT Website
Here you will find information about Personality Type and Myers-Briggs personality theory, the MBTIŽ, and resources for determining type.

APT recognizes Carl Jung and Isabel Myers as the primary pioneers in understanding psychological type and the key role of the MBTI in bringing this understanding to a larger audience. Yet the association maintains an openness to other models of personality type.

Our members use type and temperament theory in counseling, coaching, education, leadership, team building, management, religion, multicultural/international relations, and self-development.

The Association for Psychological Type
This website is sponsored by the Great Lakes Region of the Association for Psychological Type (APT) and its associated chapters in Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky.

Great Lakes Chapters
This section will introduce you to these various chapters and provide links to various chapter websites. Knowledge of personality type is not a prerequisite for membership at the Chapter level; in fact it is a great way to get introduced to Myers-Briggs personality type, the MBTIŽ, and other personality concepts that spring from Carl Jung's theory of psychological types.

If you are looking for an online introduction to Myers-Briggs personality type, Carl Jung and his theory psychological types, and other resources on type, go to the link entitled Personality Type
