1) Jung's Cognitive Processes - What Are They?*
Adapted from Dynamics of Personality Type (Telos Publications, 2000) *Used with permission. In the 1920s, the idea of personality type was being explored by leading scientists and philosophers. A Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Jung, wrote Psychological Types during that time, in which he gave a detailed description of what has now become one of the most widely used typologies in the world. His theory of psychological type has sparked more than one personality inventory and an international membership organization of professionals and lay people alike devoted to deepening their understanding of typology and its competent and ethical use. The eight cognitive processes are the foundation for psychological type instruments. Each of the sixteen type patterns has a distinct pattern of cognitive process and development. Knowing an individual's innate tendency to use these processes can help release creative blocks and generate more effective communication.
