Jungian Typology[edit | edit source]
Jungian Typology is a cognitive theory and typology system which utilizes a set of eight information processing function of human consciousness proposed and described in the book Psychological Types.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- No Jungian typology test is reliable. If you gain an interest in Jung's work, it is best that you study it and it's associated systems yourself.
- The system itself is not entirely scientifically valid, or at least not accepted by most scientific organizations.
- Jungian Typology is about perception (as through the senses and unconscious intuitive connection) and judgement (through evaluation and logical reason) - not action, extroversion, friendliness, aggression, procrastination or any other personality trait. For actual personality traits, please refer to the
Big Five personality traits theory. - Do not preoccupy yourself with letters (i.e, if someone seems to be social then they're an E type; asocial - an I); labels like "INTJ" or "ESTP" only represent the underlying functions that create a single whole type. In short - use
cognitive functions. - Avoid stereotypes. Here's a basic example: People with a greater
intuitive functions being "more intelligent" than those with greater 
sensory ones. This is ultimately untrue, as both intuition and sensation are irrational and perceptive functions - one or the other doesn't make you "more intelligent".[1]

Jung proposed the existence of two dichotomous pairs of cognitive functions: The "rational" (judging) functions: thinking and feeling. The "irrational" (perceiving) functions: sensation and intuition.
