Carl Jung's Psychological Types
In his renowned book 'Psychological Types', Carl Jung divided personality into two main types based on the flow of energy—Introvert and Extrovert—and combined them with four psychological functions: thinking, feeling, sensation, and intuition.
An individual with an Extraverted Thinking Type personality bases their life on objective realities, external rules, and factual logic.
