Many schools or institutions strive hard to figure out personality types and vocation aptitudes through various tests in order to find out vocations adequate for personal aptitude. The MBTI personality types test is a
standardized one broadly used in the society. However, MBTI personality types test is self guided test, based on psychological or educational theories, confined by subject’s judgement, cognitive ability, testing situation and testing time. Especially, a non-voluntary subjects are unlikely to show exact results
and furthermore, person who has unstable mental state cannot even take a
test. In order to make a better understanding of personal vocation aptitudes, a test tool to supplement a limitation of western personality test is necessary with an objective and standardized test. That is Mingriology. Mingriology is able to classify a person's born personality and aptitude, know what vocation
a person chooses and predict what vocation a person changes according to his or her great luck. Mingriology can solve a disadvantage of a western vocation aptitude test.
This study used advantages of the theory of Mingriology's vocation aptitudes in order to find vocation aptitudes of students and adults. This study compared papers about vocation aptitudes between MBTI and
Mingriology in an objective and concrete way with statistical data of real cases on MBTI personality types and Gyunkguk from the Five Elements and Sipsung. This study analyzed theories of vocation aptitudes of MBTI and
Mingriology. To those who took a MBTI personality types test a survey was
done to figure out current vocations and vocational satisfaction with statistical tools and results from real MBTI data and Saju analysis. The two theories of vocation aptitudes were used to understand how much they were related to vocation aptitudes of people engaged in the real time. As a result, the analysis
of vocation aptitudes on the basis of Mingriology proved to be as objective as western personality tests
The results from comparison between vocation aptitudes of MBTI and Mingriology variables are as follows. Firstly, comparison between MBTI variables and vocation aptitudes showed that vocation aptitudes which MBTI variables preferred almost matched ones which people really engaged in real
cases. Secondly, comparison between MBTI variables and vocation aptitudes showed that vocation aptitudes on Mingriology almost matched ones which people really engaged in real cases. Thirdly, comparison between MBTI and Mingriology variables showed that dispositions of MBTI and Mingriology
variables almost matched vocation aptitudes according to them. If MBTI and Mingriology are really used, they help consulting with students and adults about vocation aptitudes.
A limitation of this study is as follows. This study was compelled to select a self-report survey due to time and space restrict in order to understand vocation aptitudes. That was why there was difficulty securing a
variety of vocations and samples. Among various theories about MBTI vocation aptitude were known by 16
personality types and 4 psychological functions and Among many theories about Mingriology vocation aptitudes were understood just by the Five Elements, Sipsung and Gyunkguk, which means a methodological limitation that diverse theories could not be applied to this study. Nonetheless,
Mingriology supplemented a limitation of MBTI and proved to be a philosophy to be used for consulting vocation aptitudes. This study is expected to help investigating vocation aptitudes.
