Why is it useful to know your "Type"?
It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.-Anonymous
Many individuals never question their fundamental value systems- they let them guide their decisions and influence their beliefs without much thought. Although some adolescents enter a "rebellious period", where they begin to question and challenge the values they were raised by, and are therefore involved in creating the values they live by in adulthood, many do not. In addition, even if someone did have a conscious phase where they questioned their values, they may now be so accustomed to their beliefs that they stop questioning them, and these beliefs have become so deep-seated that they are no longer thought of on a conscious level. Therefore, we make decisions, hold attitudes, and behave in ways that are consistent with our values, rather than having to consciously weigh each decision as it comes. The problem with this passive approach is that eventually some people begin to drift in other directions and may begin to make decisions that are no longer in tune with the values that are most important to them.
The results of this test can serve to remind or educate you of what values are most important to you. In doing so, you can continue to be guided by these principles, but may do so on a more conscious level. If for some reason, you have been living in a way inconsistent with your values, you can seek to make changes in your life in order tohelp you become more content. Another important result of taking the test is that you can learn more about values in general, and can see that there are many different combinations of value types that influence those around you. Knowing (and accepting) that different people have different values will go a long way to enhance understanding between very different individuals.
