A Little Exercise

See in class!

Scoring the PTQ

On the score sheet, for each item, circle the term you

circled on the questionnaire for that item. If you circled

“heredity” for item 1, circle “heredity” under both X and

Y on the answer sheet.

Add up the number of items circled in each column.

The column with the greatest number of items circled

represents the type of personality theory closest to your

own views.

Carl Jung , Swiss psychiatrist who was a Freudian disciple,

believed that we are one of two personality types:

  • Introvert : Shy, self-centered person whose attention is

focused inward

  • Extrovert : Bold, outgoing person whose attention is directed

outward

Jung’s Theory of Two Types

Carl Jung

Hans Eysenck

Eysenck’s Theory, continued

The first two factors create 4 combinations, related to the four basic temperaments recognized by ancient Greeks:

  • Melancholic (introverted + unstable): sad, gloomy
  • Choleric (extroverted + unstable): hot-tempered, irritable
  • Phlegmatic (introverted + stable): sluggish, calm
  • Sanguine (extroverted + stable): cheerful, hopeful
