The MBTI is a type evaluator. Typology refers to characteristics and behaviour that is strongly rooted in innate, born orientation, which causes relatively stable, enduring and predictable patterns. It is the sum total of ways a person behaves and is expected to behave. (Not set in stone though.)

A trait evaluator is more suspect to upbringing.
