: Does anyone have any info on real numerical data gathered in some statistically-valid way that pertains to type-distribution? What I'm wondering is, do the types seem to be more or less randomly distributed with even quantities in each type? Does it vary much according to sex, culture, etc.? Has Palmer, Riso, Becca, or anyone else done much compilation of this sort of data? Or perhaps MBTI researchers?
