  • I couldn't access the first thesis.

  • Second thesis. Hmm... unfortunately, the author ignored the past two decades of research using the Big Five and relied instead on personality typing.

(I think recent theses from most US institutions are available from the ProQuest database. I don't know any general way to get non-US theses.)

Thanks for the second; there's actually a surprising number of papers using MBTI in online education, it's really annoying. I may have to look into converting MBTI to Big Five if I do a meta-analysis.
