“With Aristotle … a new cultural type was born, a model of the wise man different from that of his predecessors, and especially different from the sages.” – Carlo Natali: Aristotle: His Life and School, Princeton University Press 2013 ed., p. 2 By Ryan Smith To our knowledge, we were the first to assess Aristotle...

“Plato had written in The Republic of four kinds of character which clearly corresponded with the four temperaments.” – David Keirsey, Please Understand Me II, Prometheus 1998 ed., p. 23 In Please Understand Me II, David Keirsey posits that Plato had four personality types in his Republic, each corresponding to a ‘temperament’: Artisans (SP), Guardians...

Continued from Why Freud is ISTJ, Part 1. Written by the CT Admins in reply to the comment by AndrahilAdrian here. We are glad to see some elaboration for the argument that Freud is INTJ. It is clear that AndrahilAdrian has a very strong intuition that Freud is INTJ, and as we said, we used...

Comment: Freud has got to be an INTJ. It seems unlikely that an Si-dom would have invented a field as abstract, personalized, and disconnected from reality as psychoanalysis. Almost every quote on your infographic could just as easily apply to an INTJ. Freud didn’t use a data-oriented approach; he generalized from his own and his patients’...

The ‘Color Q Personality’ is yet another “MBTI by another name”, created by Shoya Zichy. We do not think it adds much to the understanding of Jungian typology, but on the other hand, it appears that Zichy has been very prolific in searching out celebrities and getting them to take her personality test. In this...

SUMMARY OF THIS ARTICLE Adam Grant calls the MBTI “useless” but can’t cite a single study to back up his claim. Grant faults the MBTI for not being able to evaluate job performance. But the MBTI doesn’t claim to be able to do that. So Grant is ignorant of what the MBTI does and doesn’t...

In the article below, Gerroir, an Ni type, contributes with his personal understanding of the system. We at CelebrityTypes do not necessarily agree with Gerroir on every point, but we found his article an insightful read. By Jesse Gerroir Understanding the opposition of functions is one of the keys to understanding Jungian typology and how...

THE QUESTION I’ve been wondering lately about the effect an absent or abusive father figure would have on an IN type’s development? From what I’ve read, the growth of the auxiliary is stunted and the tertiary provides compensatory strength, along with some manifestation of shadow characteristics. The lacking parent makes differentiation difficult, so the tertiary...

1. Study Personality Broadly Personality is an unsolved puzzle, and Jungian typology is but a tiny piece of that puzzle. It says something about the arrangement of the four functions and their orientations. All sorts of other factors that pertain to the personality are, in effect, irrelevant to the system.  Even if you know everything...

Sensation If you have studied Jungian typology to any extent, you have no doubt noticed that the field is marred by a bias in favor of the intuitive types. Sensation types are commonly denigrated and abused, and the argument is often advanced that “so-and-so can’t be an S type because he is smart/ ingenious/ academic,”...

(1): Expecting every scientist to be NT: “I have always found that people of mediocre knowledge of the world expected the most from systematic [typologies]. Men who know the world are the best [typologists] and expect the least from general rules.” – Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742 – 1799), quoted in Paul J. Stern: C.G. Jung...

When we opened CelebrityTypes in 2009, the standard online typing of Goethe was INFJ, whereas we thought him more of an ENFJ. Later still, we started digging into Jung, only to discover that he and his partner Hans Schmid-Guisan would consider Goethe more of an Fe type. We will detail Jung’s claims on Goethe below...

Here at the site we are engaged in a very special kind of research, which could perhaps be called psycho-biography, i.e. trying to find some unity between a person’s cognition and a person’s life. The genre is by no means a new one, but what distinguishes it is that there is so much bad material...

Jung identifies Adler as both introverted and extroverted. Keirsey & son identify Adler as NT. Freud identifies Adler as having Paranoid traits. Jung identifies Adler as having Schizophrenic traits. V.W. Odajnyk (author of ‘Archetype and Character‘) identifies Adler as ENFP* and as having Manic-Depressive traits. Walter Kaufmann (author of ‘Discovering the Mind’) identifies Adler as an...

James Graham Johnston Jung’s Compass of Psychological Types MSE Press 2011 An overlooked and unusual contribution to the study of Jungian typology was released in 2011 under the name of Jung’s Compass of Psychological Types. It was written by James Graham Johnston, who is apparently a Jungian before he is a typologist (rather than a...
