Abstract

The Francis Psychological Type Scales (FPTS) were developed during the early 2000s to operationalise the four components of psychological type theory within survey-style research, proposing measures of introversion and extraversion, sensing and intuition, feeling and thinking, judging and perceiving. Drawing on data provided by 743 university students, the present study examines the factor structure, internal consistency reliability and construct validity of the Revised Turkish adaptation of this instrument, as part of an integrated programme designed to facilitate empirical research in Türkiye rooted in psychological type theory. These data afford a solid foundation for further work in this field.
