Re: sort of reliable Myer Briggs test?

Is there any particular reason why those four groupings tend to be the categories people fall into?

As far as I know, it's mostly to do with that second category and relevancy. The second category is how you take in information.

If you are a Sensor - you work best with hard data, facts, and "what's right in front of you" - then more relevant to your personality will be what you do with the data you get, which is what the last category (P/J) is about. Because you focus on 'hard data', how you arrive at conclusions is not as important, so for SP/SJ types, that T/F in the middle is not as important.

If you're an Intuitive - you like to extrapolate things, explore ideas, etc - then a lot of the information you intake is 'imagination' (re: filling in the blanks with stuff from your own mind rather than looking primarily towards hard data). In that case, how you arrive at those ideas is more important, which is what the third category (T/F) is about. Because you are more theoretical, how you arrive at those conclusions is more important than what you end up doing with those conclusions.

In short, the last three categories are more about who you are as a person (how you generate ideas/how you think/"how you do", etc.). The first category, I/E, is more about how the personality derived from the other letters applies to the world and interacts with other people, so it's not all that relevant to the temperaments.

Ah! Fascinating. Thanks for the explanation.
