Personality snapshot

Analysts, not Diplomats, make up the largest Role in this sample – the reverse of the average country. Test-takers here are the 4th most Judging and the 5th most Introverted of all ranked countries, and they rank high for Thinking too, so logic and a clear plan usually lead the way. INTJs (Architects) and ISTJs (Logisticians) both appear well above their usual share, while lively ESFPs (Entertainers) are much rarer.

About the country

Jamaica, the third-largest island in the Caribbean, lies south of Cuba in the Greater Antilles. Coffee grows on the misty slopes of the Blue Mountains in the east, while Cockpit Country, inland to the west, is a maze of steep limestone hills and sinkholes. Ska, rocksteady, and reggae were all born here, and ackee and saltfish is the national dish. The island’s sprinters have won many Olympic golds, and Jamaica sent a bobsled team to the 1988 Winter Games.
