PSYCHOLOGICAL TYPES

'''Psychological Types''', 1971 is the title of the sixth volume in the Princeton/Bollingen edition of the Collected Works of Carl Jung. it is a translation of "Psychologische Typen" published by Rascher Verlag, Zurich in 1921.
In this book Jung categorized individuals into primary types of psychological function.
He suggested that there were four main Functions of Consciousness:
Two perceiving functions

★ (Sensation, and Intuition),
Two Judging functions

★ (Thinking, and Feeling),
And two main Attitude Types

★ Introversion and Extraversion.
Jung then theorized that whichever function dominates consciousness, its opposite function is repressed and will characterize unconscious behavior.
Accordingly, the root types are categorized as follows:

★ Extraverted Sensation

★ Introverted Sensation

★ Extraverted Intuition

★ Introverted Intuition

★ Extraverted Thinking

★ Introverted Thinking

★ Extraverted Feeling

★ Introverted Feeling
This work was succeeded by Eysenck's three factor model, the Big Five personality traits, and the Myers Briggs Type Indicator.
