We have had quite a few new Lab members join over the last few weeks. Welcome! It's exciting to have you sharing your thoughts and experiences with color analysis and personality preference systems. Most of what's in the Classroom exists because I wanted it for my own work and couldn't find it anywhere. A lot of you probably haven't clicked over to that tab yet, so here's what's in there. It's all free. Apps: Best-Fit Personality Preference Lab app: If you've ever gotten a different personality type result depending on which test you took, this one is for you. It walks you through the letters people most often flip on and can help you settle on your best fit personality type. Color Attribute Explorer app: The playing-around version of the Five Dimensions (the PDF below). Move one attribute at a time and watch what happens to the color. I have found it SUPER useful for finally feeling the difference between chroma and clarity. Personality x Color Analysis Database app: The one we're building together. As far as I can tell, no one has data on whether personality preference and color type/season have any relationship at all. So we're making it. Go see what's there so far, and add your own if you haven't. PDFs [my initial efforts before I moved to app building]: Personality Preference and Color Implementation pdf: All 16 preferences, and how yours is a genuine strength on this journey once you know how to use it. It covers what tends to get in the way for each type when it's time to actually wear the thing, and how to build an approach that honors the way you already think. The Five Dimensions of Personal Color Analysis pdf: Hue, value, chroma, clarity, contrast. The five things being measured underneath your season name. These terms get mixed up constantly (chroma is not clarity), so the guide takes them one at a time. App in development: Color Analyst x Preference Appeal Index: Still very much a work in progress. I went through analyst websites, looked at the language they use to sell, and mapped it against personality preference. Useful if you're picking an analyst, and also if you are one and you're wondering who your marketing is talking to. I'd really like to know whether this is something you'd find interesting before I take it further. There's a pinned post inside that one, so go have a look at what's there and jump on the post to tell me what you think.

📊 UPDATE: You can now add your entry directly to the live tracker at mbti-color-season.netlify.app — just scroll down to the entry form. The dataset and charts update in real time! ________________________________________________________________________________ Many of you have already shared your type and season somewhere in the group (the welcome thread, comments, DMs). I'm asking you to drop it here again so I can have it all in one place and start looking at patterns. 👩‍🎓🔍 What I hope to explore, to start, is whether type correlates with anything measurable on the color side (or vice versa). I'll share patterns back with the group as the data set builds and use what comes in to shape the next round of research questions. If you have a pattern you're curious about, drop it in the comments. This is a collective effort. 🧪 The grid starts here. In the future, I will tag new members here so they can continue to add to the data. Drop your information below using this format: MBTI type | color season | any contested or alternate results Example: ESTJ | Dark Autumn | also tested as Deep Winter 👇 If you only have one of the two, drop what you know. Partial data still counts.
