This is a personality test that classifies people into 16 types.MBTIIn type classification,Perceptual type (P)とJudgment type (J)There is such a thing.
Perceptual type (P)They are good at adapting to changing circumstances, but they struggle to see plans through to completion.
Judgment type (J)They are good at seeing plans through to the end, but they are not good at adapting to changing circumstances.
For more details, please refer to the article below.
These are the two types, but perhapsFrom a neuroscience perspective, the properties of neurons are different.It might be.
Fickle neurons and persistence (motivation) neurons
A joint research group consisting of Associate Professor Kenji Tanaka and Professor Masaru Mimura of the Department of Psychiatry and Neuroscience, Keio University School of Medicine, Principal Researcher Akio Natsubori of the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science, and Associate Professor Kenta Kobayashi of the National Institute for Physiological Sciences, National Institutes of Natural Sciences, has discovered the following:
In experiments using mice, we found that in order to initiate action toward a goal, it is necessary to increase the activity of "motivation neurons" located in the lateral part of a brain region called the ventral striatum (Note 1), as well as decrease the activity of "fickle neurons" located in the medial part.

In other words,Fickle neuronsIf there are many,Adapting to new thingsYes, butI'm not good at continuing things.This is what it will be.
Also,Continuity (motivation) neuronsIf there are many,I'm good at perseverance.However,They have difficulty adapting to new things.Yes, it will.
The following images show the results of experiments using mice.
The relationship between MBTI and neurons
Based on the above results, we can infer that,Perceptual type (P)はFickle neuronsThere are many,Judgment type (J)はContinuity (motivation) neuronsThere may be many of them.
- Perceiving types (P) are fickle = suited to innovation
- Judgment type (J) is suited to continuation = motivation = implementation.
MBTI isIt is being elucidated at the neuroscience level that each neuron and its corresponding type have advantages and disadvantages depending on the environment.It can be said that...
In other words,Environment with little changeSo, can you keep doing the same thing?Judgment type (J)This will give them an advantage.
but,When the environment changes, adaptable toPerceptual type (P)It can be said that this will give them an advantage.
